Lesson 15
Good news
First listen and then answer the question.
What was the good news?
The secretary told me that Mr. Harmsworth would see me. I felt very nervous when I went into his office. He did not look up from his desk when I entered. After I had sat down, he said that business was very bad. He told me that the firm could not afford to pay such large salaries. Twenty people had already left. I knew that my turn had come.
'Mr.Harmsworth,' I said in a weak voice.
'Don't interrupt,' he said.
Then he smiled and told me I would receive an extra thousand pounds a year!
我現在體會到了一點。
在上文中,我故意念到有點高低起伏,這其實就是新概念這種朗誦的語調。
我並沒有模仿朗讀範文的高低起伏的語調,而是自我高興高,高興低的念;一段語調低了,下一個就高一些;一段高了,下一個就故意低一些;
因為,朗讀是慢速,所以必須這麽處理;否則無法聽下去。我原來以為我朗讀不好是肺活量不夠,現在發現不是了,是高低起伏沒有交錯;高低交錯了,“氣”就夠用。
但是現實生活中,沒有人這麽說話,所以朗讀和現實說話是有很大區別的。
請大家批評指正。
