Lesson 24-1 A skeleton in the cupboard

We often read in novels how a seemingly respectable person or family has some terrible secret which has been concealed from strangers for years. The English language possesses a vivid saying to describe this sort of situation. The terrible secret is called 'a skeleton in the cupboard'. At some dramatic moment in the story, the terrible secret becomes known and a reputation is ruined. The reader's hair stands on end when he reads in the final pages of the novel that the heroine a dear old lady who had always been so kind to everybody, had, in her youth, poisoned every one of her five husbands.

It is all very well for such things to occur in fiction. To varying degrees, we all have secrets which we do not want even our closest friends to learn, but few of us have skeletons in the cupboard. The only person I know who has a skeleton in the cupboard is George Carlton, and he is very pound of the fact. George studied medicine in his youth. Instead of becoming a doctor, however, he became a successful writer of detective stories.

练习感悟：

今天的文章较长，生词较多，不容易读。今天对我来说难点是单词的发音。文中有个单词heroine[ˈhɛrəʊɪn] 按照音标怎么也读不出原声的发音。后来在群里看到有同学说，英语连读中前一个以[əʊ]结尾的单词与下一个以[ ɪ ] 开头的单词中间要加［w］，以[ ɪ ] 结尾的单词和以元音开头的单词连读，中间要加[ j ] 。另外，文中单词ruin也有这种现象。

这才读得像一些。还有同学说第二册时就出现过这个现象。。。我居然根本没有发现，同样是读书，差距太大了。
