L15-1:Fifty pence worth of trouble
Children always appreciate small gifts of money. Mum or dad, of course, provide a regular supply of pocket money, but uncles and aunts are always a source of extra income. With some children, small sums go a long way. If 50 pence pieces are not exchanged for sweets, they rattle for months inside money boxes. Only very thrifty children manage to fill up a money box. For most of them, 50 pence is a small price to pay for a nice big bar of chocolate.My nephew, George, has a money box but it is always empty. Very few of the 50 pence pieces and pound coins I have given him have found their way there. I gave him 50 pence yesterday and advised him to save it. Instead he bought himself 50 pence worth of trouble.

训练任务:L0+L1+L2+L4
训练感想:今儿的任务在上午完成了,本该录音成功了的,但是中间有事耽误了,后面录音就不行了,不过还是不矫情呗,干就对了,感觉现在的读音很用力,发音有进步。评价了群里的三位小伙伴,都是很不错的。
