Lesson 47 . A thirsty ghost 时长:67s
A public house which was recently bought by mr. Ian Thompson is up for sale.
ə ˈpʌblɪkhaʊswɪʧ wɒz ˈriːsntli bɔːt baɪ mr. ˈiːən ˈtɒmsən ɪz ʌp fɔː seɪl.
Mr. Thompson is going to sell it because it is haunted.
Mr. ˈtɒmsən ɪz ˈgəʊɪŋ tuː sɛl ɪt bɪˈkɒz ɪt ɪz ˈhɔːntɪd.
He told me that he could not go to sleep one night because he heard a strange noise coming from the bar.
hiː təʊld miː ðæt hiː kʊd nɒt gəʊ tuː sliːp wʌn naɪt bɪˈkɒz hiː hɜːd ə streɪnʤ nɔɪz ˈkʌmɪŋ frɒm ðə bɑː.
The next morning, he found the doors had been blocked by chairs and the furniture had been moved.
ðə nɛkst ˈmɔːnɪŋ, hiː faʊnd ðə dɔːz hæd biːn blɒkt baɪ ʧeəz ænd ðə ˈfɜːnɪʧə hæd biːn muːvd
Though mr.tompsom had turned the light off before he went to bed , they were on in the morning.
ðəʊ mr.tompsom hæd tɜːnd ðə laɪt ɒf bɪˈfɔː hiː wɛnt tuː bɛd , ðeɪ wɜːr ɒn ɪn ðə ˈmɔːnɪŋ.
He also said that he found five empty whiskey bottles which the ghost must have drunk the night before.
hiː ˈɔːlsəʊ sɛd ðæt hiː faʊnd faɪv ˈɛmpti ˈwɪski ˈbɒtlz wɪʧ ðə gəʊst mʌst hæv drʌŋk ðə naɪt bɪˈfɔː.
When I suggested some villiagers must have come in for a free drink, mr. Thompson shook his head.
wɛn aɪ səˈʤɛstɪd sʌm villiagers mʌst hæv kʌm ɪn fɔːr ə friː drɪŋk, mr. ˈtɒmsən ʃʊk hɪz hɛd.
The villagers told him that they will not except the pub even if he gives it away.
ðə ˈvɪlɪʤəz təʊld hɪm ðæt ðeɪ wɪl nɒt ɪkˈsɛpt ðə pʌb ˈiːvən ɪf hiː gɪvz ɪt əˈweɪ.
