[00:10.98]Why did Harrison sell his house so quickly? [00:16.51]My old friend, Harrison, had lived in [00:20.00]the Mediterranean for many years [00:22.65]before he returned to England. [00:25.97]He had often dreamed of retiring in England [00:29.89]and had planned to settle down in the country. [00:33.61]He had no sooner returned than he bought [00:37.38]a house and went to live there. [00:40.05]Almost immediately he began to complain [00:43.62]about the weather, [00:45.62]for even though it was still summer, [00:49.20]it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold. [00:54.84]After so many years of sunshine, [00:57.84]Harrison got a shock. [01:00.47]He acted as if he had never lived in England before. [01:05.60]In the end, it was more than he could bear. [01:09.79]He had hardly had time to settle down [01:13.04]when he sold the house and left the country. [01:17.21]The dream he had had for so many years ended there. [01:22.79]Harrison had thought of everything except the weather.

After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a shock.
经过这么多年的阳光,哈里森大吃一惊。
He acted as if he had never lived in England before.
他表现得好像他以前从未在英国生活过。
He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country.
他还没来得及安顿下来,就卖掉了房子,离开了这个国家。
Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather, for even though it was still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold.
他几乎立刻开始抱怨天气,因为尽管现在还是夏天,但雨下得不停,而且经常冷得要命。
