Lesson 12 Goodbye and good luck
Our neighbor, Captain Charles Alison, will sail from Portsmouth tomorrow. We'll meet him at the harbour early in the morning. He will be in his small boat—Topsail. Topsail is a famous little boat. It has sailed across the Atlantic many times. Captain Alison will set out at eight o'clock so we'll have plenty of time. We'll see his boat and then we'll say good-bye to him. He will be away for two months. We are very proud of him. He will take part in an important race across the Atlantic.

音标L
有两种不同的发音
There are actually two kinds of Ls, and they are not in the same way.
1. the light L
the L is a light L when it comes before the vowel or diphthong in a syllable.
有两种发音方式,一种是:to lift the tongue so the tip is touching the roof of the mouth just behind the front teeth.
另外一种的发音像th, with the tongue tip touching the bottom of the top front teeth.
The contact with the teeth is more firm than the TH sound pushing up on the top teeth.
The tongue is not as loose or relaxed as it is in the TH.
2. the Dark L
单词:luck Charles topsail little sail
练习感悟:
1.复习完L的发音之后,觉得自己不会发了,一直发的都是light L, 对于dark L发的时候也是用light L来代替,感觉我的舌头要被整惨了,一会儿上抬,一会儿弓着,一会儿还得卷着舌尖,看来明天要继续L的练习了。
2.第一句怎么都读不顺,连from都不会念了,Charles中L的发音很清晰,单个音标发都行,连着读的时候发现ch要快速过渡到ar再过渡到L的音还是会有点反应不过来,念得不够好听。
2.看到了r的音,所以试着hold out,练习的时候用这个非常用效果。23秒,坐着的;26秒,站着的,打字的时候感觉缺氧了。English Sounds - R [ɹ] Consonant - How to make the R [ɹ] Consonant
3.慢慢来,慢慢来,不着急,好好打磨每一个音标,不着急。
4.晚上娃儿上课,可以找个空旷的地方好好再练习一下。
5.风大的吓人,估计得等到回家才能发语音了,先把笔记发了,免得到时候太晚了。
有人点评我啦,好开心
@[00]Hannah Lin-厦门-全职妈妈 太好听了,语音语调都很舒服,你应该是英语基础相当好的妈妈了。 那我还能找出什么问题呢? 真是苦恼。
1 boat 是/t/ 不是ts,你的两次boat都念成ts了。
2 Alison 的/i/ 稍微稍微有那么一丢丢的紧音,松音就更好听了
3 你的美卷r真是太棒了,我也想发出这样自然的卷音,然后语调又很舒服
4 最后一句take part-in-an-import中的连读,非常自然,非常顺耳,啊,好嫉妒啊
5 be away 如果你喜欢的话,也可以连读+j。 慢速就不需要啦
羡慕你的发音,我觉得你可以直接上更高级难度的课程呢。
