Lesson46 Expensive and uncomfortable
When a plane from London arrived at Sydney airport, workers began to unload a
number of wooden boxes which contained clothing. No one could account for the fact
that one of the boxes was extremely heavy. It suddenly occurred to one of the workers
to open up the box. He was astonished at what he found. A man was lying in the box
on top of a pile of woollen goods. He was so surprised at being discovered that he did
not even try to run away. After he was arrested, the man admitted hiding in the box
before the plane left London. He had had a long and uncomfortable trip, for he had been
confined to the wooden box for over eighteen hours. The man was ordered to pay
£3,500 for the cost of the trip. The normal price of a ticket is£2,000 !

L0 + L4
复盘总结#
今天起晚了,老婆又怪我没叫她,唉╯﹏╰
今晚练了会朗读,发完L0后出去跑步。
目标十公里,步频目标170步/分钟。十公里完成,平均步频167,跑完感觉还不错,十公里不休息不喝水,感觉像永动机一样,可以继续跑下去。
多练练,为12/30宝马积蓄能量!有目标和追逐目标的感觉很好。
我们总是容易高估短期收益,和低估远期收益!
坚持!持续行动!
