Lesson 15 Good news
Thesecretary told me that Mr. Harmsworth would see me. I felt very nervouswhen I went into his office. He did not look up from his desk when Ientered. After I had sat down, he said that business was very bad. He told methat the firm could not afford to pay such large salaries. Twenty people had already left. I knew that my turn had come.'Mr. Harmsworth,' I said in a weak voice. 'Don't interrupt,' he said. Then hesmiled and told me I would receivean extra thousand pounds a year!

知识笔记：
单词：1、receive：收到，拿到；
音标：/ɔɪ/：voice
/ɔɪ/是元音音标，属于开合（也叫合口）双元音。学习这个音之前先学习/ɔː/和/ɪ/的发音。发音时先发/ɔː/然后滑向/ɪ/音，/ɪ/发得轻而短几乎只做口型。
练习感悟： 已习惯每天朗读英语，即使再忙也会拿出路上时间用手机APP听一下。
