Lesson95 A fantasy
When the Ambassador of Escalopia returned home for lunch, his wife got a shock. He looked pale and his clothes were in a frightful state.
'What has happened ?' she asked.
'How did your clothes get into such a mess ?'
'A fire-extinguisher, my dear,' answered the Ambassador drily. 'University students set the Embassy on fire this morning.'
'Good heavens!' exclaimed his wife. 'And where were you at the time ?'
'I was in my office as usual,' answered the Ambassador. 'The fire broke out in the basement. I went down immediately. of course, and that fool, Horst, aimed a fire-extinguisher at me. He thought I was on fire. I must definitely get that fellow posted.'
The Ambassador's wife went on asking questions, when she suddenly noticed a big hole in her husband's hat. 'And how can you explain that ?' she asked.
'Oh, that,' said the Ambassador. 'Someone fired a shot through my office window. Accurate, don't you think ? Fortunately, I wasn't wearing it at the time. If I had been, I would not have been able to get home for lunch.'

练习感悟：
1.r后加元音的读法仍不熟练需要反应一下，持续到现在，单词的发音还算有进步，但在文章的层面上说，需要读十遍以上才能减少停顿或口误，这是下一个努力的目标。加油
2.今天一天都有工作，工作中没有学习新概念，练了普拉提回来读着更累了。前几天因为工作不多所以作业完成的还算好，还沾沾自喜觉得自己时间够用…为以后担忧，早起必须提上议程！
3.晚安！
4.补于0111 群里有小伙伴指出了我朗读中的一个小磕绊，explain，我当时有点犹豫，是读成p还是b，这么简单的原则，或者说我可以回去听一下录音求证一下，但我没有！我好累……去上了一节普拉提，真的累shi了……词汇课还没听……
