Lesson38 Everything except the weather
My old friend, Harrison, had lived in the Mediterranean for many years before he returned to England. He had often dreamed of retiring in England and had planned to settle down in the country. He had no sooner returned than he bought a house and went to live there. Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather, for even though it was still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold. After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a shock. He acted as if he had never lived in England before. In the end, it was more than he could bear. He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country. The dream he had had for so many years ended there. Harrison had thought of everything except the weather.

练习感悟：带脑读很重要。朗读不只是读，还要搞懂文章的意思。要尝试文章背诵了。
原声时长：76s
录音时长：76s
练习时间：朗读用时25min
本周小结：
**上周计划回顾：早起朗读4/7， 实际5/7。完成，分别是周二、三、四、五、六。
**好的地方：早起朗读状态好。读书跟听力小组还没开始的空档，更加要集中精力投入到朗读中了。
**不足之处：朗读投入的时间不够。可以试着从半小时增加到40分钟，从纯朗读到背诵。
**下周计划：同上周，早起朗读4/7。
