Lesson31 Success story
Yesterday afternoon Frank Hawkins was telling me about his experiences as a young man.
ˈjɛstədeɪ ˈɑːftəˈnuːn fræŋk ˈhɔːkɪnz wɒz ˈtɛlɪŋ miː əˈbaʊt hɪz ɪksˈpɪərɪənsɪz æz ə jʌŋ mæn.
Before he retired, Frank was the head of a very large business company, but as a boy he used to work in a small shop.
bɪˈfɔː hiː rɪˈtaɪəd, fræŋk wɒz ðə hɛd ɒv ə ˈvɛri lɑːʤ ˈbɪznɪs ˈkʌmpəni, bʌt æz ə bɔɪ hiː juːzd tuː wɜːk ɪn ə smɔːl ʃɒp.
It was his job to repair bicycles and at that time he used to work fourteen hours a day.
ɪt wɒz hɪz ʤɒb tuː rɪˈpeə ˈbaɪsɪklz ænd æt ðæt taɪm hiː juːzd tuː wɜːk ˈfɔːˈtiːn ˈaʊəz ə deɪ.
He saved money for years and in 1958 he bought a small work-shop of his own.
hiː seɪvd ˈmʌni fɔː jɪəz ænd ɪn 1958 hiː bɔːt ə smɔːl wɜːk-ʃɒp ɒv hɪz əʊn.
In his twenties, Frank used to make spare parts for aeroplanes. At that time he had two helpers.
ɪn hɪz ˈtwɛntɪz, fræŋk juːzd tuː meɪk speə pɑːts fɔːr ˈeərəpleɪnz. æt ðæt taɪm hiː hæd tuː ˈhɛlpəz.
In a few years, the small work-shop had become a large factory which employed seven hundred and twenty-eight people.
ɪn ə fjuː jɪəz, ðə smɔːl wɜːk-ʃɒp hæd bɪˈkʌm ə lɑːʤ ˈfæktəri wɪʧ ɪmˈplɔɪd ˈsɛvn ˈhʌndrəd ænd ˈtwɛnti-eɪtˈpiːpl.
Frank smiled when he remembered his hard early years and the long road to success.
fræŋk smaɪld wɛn hiː rɪˈmɛmbəd hɪz hɑːd ˈɜːli jɪəz ænd ðə lɒŋ rəʊd tuː səkˈsɛs.
He was still smiling when the door opened and his wife came in.
hiː wɒz stɪl ˈsmaɪlɪŋ wɛn ðə dɔːr ˈəʊpənd ænd hɪz waɪf keɪm ɪn.
She wanted him to repair their grandson's bicycle!
ʃiː ˈwɒntɪd hɪm tuː rɪˈpeə ðeə ˈgrænsʌnz ˈbaɪsɪkl!

练习感悟:
1.因为注意力不集中,听了两遍才听出个大概,所以复述的时候略过了细节。听出来了helpers但是没有理解文章意思不敢确定,其他的连读有之前几篇文章的基础都听出来了。这位录音老师的语调已经有点熟悉了。
2.今天的朗读比较顺利诶,可能句子啊词组啊之前的材料里都出现过,比如说at that time,我的口条已经有点记忆了。
3.游泳游了15圈,姿势正确的话游起来真的不累诶,所以加了五圈还是不累,但是一上去洗完澡就懈怠了,明天我要在白天把一部分搞定。
4.加油。
