每日一篇新概念 -- 第二册第三十四课（10月10日作业）

这一篇课文印证了我对课文本身的上口程度对阅读难度的影响的猜测。文中的主人公的名字，Ted Robinson，是临时根据原声带改过来的。他原来的名字叫Dan。我本来不想改，想照着书，而不是磁带，读的。可是这Dan Robinson，怎么弄都跟舌头较劲！

Lesson 34 Quick work



Ted Robinson has been worried all the week. Last Tuesday he received a letter from the local police. In the letter he was asked to call at the station. Ted wondered why he was wanted by the police, but he went to the station yesterday and now he is not worried anymore. At the station, he was told by a smiling policeman that his bicycle had been found. Five days ago, the policeman told him, the bicycle was picked up in a small village four hundred miles away. It is now being sent to his home by train. Ted was most surprised when he heard the news. He was amused too, because he never expected the bicycle to be found. It was stolen twenty years ago when Ted was a boy of fifteen!
