 　　Exercise 5-9:Little Lola

　　Now that we've done this, instead of L being a hard letter to pronounce,
　　it's the easiest one because the tongue is stuck in that position.
　　Pause the CD to practice the reading on your own,
　　again, with your tongue stuck to the top of your mouth.
　　Read the paragraph after me with your tongue in the normal position.
　　Use good, strong intonation1.
　　Follow my lead as I start dropping h's here.
　　Little Lola
　　felt left out in life.
　　She told herself
　　that luck controlled her
　　and she truly believed
　　that only by loyally following
　　an exalted2 leader
　　could she be delivered from her solitude3.
　　Unfortunately, she learned a little late
　　that her life was her own to deal with.
　　When she realized it,
　　she was already eligible4 for Social Security
　　and she had lent her lifelong earnings5
　　to a lowlife in Long Beach.
