Lesson23 A new house

I had a letter from my sister yesterday. She lives in Nigeria. In her letter, she said that she would come to England next year. If she comes, she will get a surprise. We are now living in a beautiful new house in the country. Work on it had begun before my sister left. The house was completed five months ago. In my letter, I told her that she could stay with us. The house has many large rooms and there is a lovely garden. It is a very modern house, so it looks strange to some people. It must be the only modern house in the district.

练习感悟：

可能音频是男声，所以跟读的时候自己的声音不自觉的压低了，实际应用时肯定不会这么说话，有点过于凝重和夸张了。现在的自己挺扣细节的，尽量发好每一个音，完全复制音频的效果，不自由发挥。
