Lesson 50 Taken for a ride

First Listen and then answer the question

Why did the writer not get off the bus at Woodford Green?

I love travelling in the country, but I don't like losing my way. 

I went on an  excursion recently, but my trip took me longer than I expected.

 "I'm going to Woodford Green." I said to the conducter as I got on the bus, "But I don't know where it is."

 "I'll tell you where to get off", answered the conducter. 

I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view of the countryside. After some time, the bus stopped. Looking round, I realized with a shock that I was the only passenger left on the bus. "You'll have to get off here", the conducter said. "This is as far as we go".

"Is this Woodford Green?", I asked. "Oh, dear", said the conducter suddenly, "I forgot to put you off". 

"It doesn't matter", I said, "I'll get off here". 

"We're going back now", said the conducter.

"Well, in that case, I prefer to stay on the bus." I answered.

练习感悟：

1.加入题目和前面的内容，方便计时。

2.今天练习的时间比较长，针对读不好的部分查了音标。之前总觉得我又不需要发音多么完美，干嘛要浪费时间查音标？查了之后发现，虽然音标自己确实不咋认识，可是通过释义、音标几趟查询下来，能把内容重复好几遍，会大大增加熟悉度。见得多了慢慢会有印象。

之前的练习态度可能有些问题。不想查是觉得“浪费时间”，想快点完成练习，不肯花时间打基础，急躁的心态之下根本没办法进行扎实地训练，都是囫囵吞枣地听和读，作业完成就万事大吉。但本来的目的是提升英语读和说的水平，不是为了写作业。有点本末倒置了。

3.朗读这件事高度专注才能发现乐趣。
