Lesson83 After the elections

The former Prime Minister, Mr. Wentworth Lane, was defeated in the recent elections. He is now retiring from political life and has gone abroad. My friend, Patrick, has always been a fanatical opponent of Mr. Lane's Radical Progressive Party. After the elections, Patrick went to the former Prime Minister's house. When he asked if Mr. Lane lived there, the policeman on duty told him that since his defeat, the ex-Prime Minister had gone abroad. On the following day, Patrick went to the house again. The same policeman was just walking slowly past the entrance, when Patrick asked the same question. Though a little suspicious this time, the policeman gave him the same answer. The day after, Patrick went to the house once more and asked exactly the same question. This time, the policeman lost his temper.' I told you yesterday and the day before yesterday,' he shouted, 'Mr. Lane was defeated in the elections. He has retired from political life and gone to live abroad!' I know,' answered Patrick,' but I love to hear you say it!'

任务配置:L0+L4

知识笔记:1.Prime Minister首相

2.lost his temper.发脾气

3.Though a little suspicious this time, the policeman gave him the same answer. (让步状语从句。)，其中的主语和谓语动词省略了，完整的从句是Though the  policeman  was  a little  suspicious this time.

/h/这个音

1）张开嘴巴，让气流自由逸出口腔，不受阻碍。

2）只在通过声门时形成轻微的摩擦，舌头和嘴唇的位置随其后的元音而变化。

3）发音时，声带不震动。

注意：/h/是个清辅音，声音不震动，送气很大，可以拿一张白纸放在嘴前，感受一下气流。不要发成汉语中的"喝"。

练习感悟:1.今日宜多练。

2.保证每日口语最多2-4小时训练，最少1-2小时训练。

3.听话照做，极致践行。借助小伙伴的外力。
