Lesson92 Asking for trouble
It must have been about two in the morning when I returned home. I tried to wake up my wife by ringing the door-bell, but she was fast asleep, so I got a ladder from the shed in the garden, put it against the wall, and began climbing towards the bedroom window. I was almost there when a sarcastic voice below said,' I don't think the windows need cleaning at this time of the night.'
I looked down and nearly fell off the ladder when I saw a policeman. I immediately regretted answering in the way I did, but I said, 'I enjoy cleaning windows at night.'
'So do I,' answered the policeman in the same tone. 'Excuse my interrupting you. I hate to interrupt a man when he's busy working, but would you mind coming with me to the station ?'
'Well, I'd prefer to stay here,' I said. 'You see, I've forgotten my key.'
'Your what ?' he called.
'My key,' I shouted.'
Fortunately, the shouting woke up my wife who opened the window just as the policeman had started to climb towards me.

练习感悟:
对于对话形式的课文越来越觉得感兴趣了,尤其是跟读的时候能感受一下文章里任务的情绪变化,就像在给自己演戏,自己逗着自己笑,而真的模仿的像原文的语调真的需要花比较多的精力,一句话要跟读很多遍,自己得重复读很多遍,然后脱离语音自己复述出来,和单纯听几遍就读的区别是很大的。一听就觉得经理花的多的语音情感很丰满,情绪展现很细。
一句话,就是干。
