Lesson31 Success story
Yesterday afternoon Frank Hawkins was telling me about his experiences as a young man. Before he retired, Frank was the head of a very large business company, but as a boy he used to work in a small shop. It was his job to repair bicycles and at that time he used to work fourteen hours a day. He saved money for years and in 1958 he bought a small work-shop of his own. In his twenties, Frank used to make spare parts for aeroplanes. At that time he had two helpers. In a few years, the small work-shop had become a large factory which employed seven hundred and twenty-eight people. Frank smiled when he remembered his hard early years and the long road to success. He was still smiling when the door opened and his wife came in. She wanted him to repair their grandson's bicycle!

4. 练习感悟
今天经历了开练以来最大威胁。白天各种异常事件耽误了学习时间不说，晚上自己居然睡着。还好及时惊醒，但只完成了基本任务。读了好多遍都跟原音时差较大，直至最后一遍基本一致。
