 Lesson 24-2 A skeleton in the cupboard

 I once spend an uncomfortable weekend which I shall never forget at his house. George showed me to the guestroom which, he said, was rarely used. He told me to unpack my things and then come down to dinner. After I had stacked my shirts and underclothes in two empty drawers, I decided to hang one of the tow suits I had brought with me in the cupboard. I opened the cupboard door and then stood in front of two suits I had brought with me in the cupboard. I opened the cupboard door and then stood in front of it suits I had brought with me in the cupboard. I opened the cupboard door and then stood in front of it petrified. A skeleton was dangling before my eyes. The sudden movement of the door made it sway slightly and it gave me the impression that it was about to leap out at me. Dropping my suit, I dashed downstairs to tell George. This was worse than "a terrible secret'; this was a read skeleton! But George was unsympathetic. “Oh, that,” he said with a smile as if he were talking about an old friend. “That's Sebastian. You forget that I was a medical student once upon a time.”

任务配置：L0+L4

笔记：unpack取出、stack堆放、drawer抽屉、petrify使惊呆、dangle悬挂、sway摇摆

感悟：拖延的结果就是不断地补作业！单位时间没有很好地利用，成本太高。
