L17-1：The longest suspension bridge in the world
Verrazano, an Italian about whom little is known, sailed into New York Harbour in 1524 and named it Angouleme. He described it as 'a very agreeable situation located within two small hills in the midst of which flowed a great river.' Though Verrazano is by no means considered to be a great explorer, his name will probably remain immortal, for on November 21st, 1964, the longest suspension bridge in the world was named after him. The Verrazano Bridge, which was designed by Othmar Ammann, joins Brooklyn to Staten Island. It has a span of 4,260 feet. The bridge is so long that the shape of the earth had to be taken into account by its designer.

知识笔记：
今天收到群里同学的点评，断句问题。
练习感悟：
今天的文章比较难读，首先是人名、地名老是读不顺。另外是长句的意群和断句。今天有小伙伴就指出了断句的问题。文章里有几处[ t ]、[ b ]的浊化要注意。比如，explorer [ɪksˈplɔːrə]，suspension [səsˈpɛnʃən]，Staten [ˈstætən]。
发现自己比较怕读长一点的叙事或者说明类的文章。只要难读稍有增加，读的质量就会很差，基础还需要继续打。今天状态比较差，读的不好，明天加油！
