Lesson63 She was not amused

Jeremy Hampden has a large circle of friends and is very popular at parties. Everybody admires him for his great sense of humor--everybody, that is, except his six-year-old daughter, Jenny. Recently, one of Jeremy's closest friends asked him to make a speech at a wedding reception. This is the sort of thing that Jeremy loves. He prepared the speech carefully and went to the wedding with Jenny. He had included a large number of funny stories in the speech and, of course, it was a great success. As soon as he had finished, Jenny told him she wanted to go home. Jeremy was a little disappointed by this but he did as his daughter asked. On the way home, he asked Jenny if she had enjoyed the speech. To his surprise, she said she hadn't. Jeremy asked her why this was so and she told him that she did not like to see so many people laughing at him!

今天很开心！！填的60天总结被s君翻牌啦！

或许一年后的现在，已经被中考压得喘不过气，也不会再有这样宝贵的时间进行英语训练。但一定会在工作日保持早起的习惯，去做短期内看起来确实有实际利益的事情……

以后的事了，现在认真打好基础吧。
