Lesson 12 Goodbye and good luck
Our neighbor, Captain Charles Alison, will sail from Portsmouth tomorrow. We'll meet him at the harbour early in the morning. He will be in his small boat—Topsail. Topsail is a famous little boat. It has sailed across the Atlantic many times. Captain Alison will set out at eight o'clock so we'll have plenty of time. We'll see his boat and then we'll say good-bye to him. He will be away for two months. We are very proud of him. He will take part in an important race across the Atlantic.

任务配置：L0+L4
知识笔记：sail seɪl，sailed across 连读
练习感悟：八点左右坐在桌前，说，准备开始先把新概念读了吧。然后....刷了会新闻，看室友打了会游戏，就九点五十了，每每遇到这种情况，回想起来就像是自己的一两个小时就那么突然的消失了一样。看着清单上的任务，就是不想开始，有种，觉得自己似乎应该做点什么，但是就是迟迟不愿意开始的意思。喝两大口水，出去吹吹冷风才静下来完成任务。另外，在时间不足的时候，或者想要快点完成任务的时候，就会不由自主的降低练习量，用质量换速度，可是你我都知道，这其实在长期看来是在降低效率的。
