晨读Day3 07-10

预习+摘抄:

·You just can’t do everything you want to do and do it well. You have limited time, resources, ability, and focus. It’s hard enough to do one thing right. Trying to do ten things well at the same time? Forget about it. 

·When you start anything new, there are forces pulling you in a variety of directions. There’s the stuff you could do, the stuff you want to do, and the stuff you have to do. The stuff you have to do is where you should begin. Start at the epicenter.

·You need to approach your idea the same way. Details make thedifference. But getting infatuated with details too early leads to disagreement, meetings, and delays. You get lost in things that don’t really matter. You waste time on decisions that are going to change anyway. So ignore the details—for a while. Nail the basics first and worry about the specifics later. 

·It doesn’t matter how much you plan, you’ll still get some stuff wrong anyway. Don’t make things worse by overanalyzing and delaying before you even get going. Long projects zap morale. The longer it takes to develop, the less likely it is to launch. Make the call, make progress, and get something out now —while you’ve got the motivation and momentum to do so.

·Tone is in your fingers.


晨读笔记:

·反馈

(1)节奏没问题+发音差不多即可,重音很重要!发音没那么重要。

         关注口语!即把听到的、学到的表达转化为自己的素材。

(2)做减法,小段重复,练习到脱口而出。加大量让嘴巴运动起来,养成说英语的习惯→习惯养成后做减法。

(3)不要读英语,而是说英语!对文本熟悉+抛开文本说出来,对着墙、对着朋友练习

(4)纠正:big deal、aspiring、filmmaker的重音,camera,to work every day的节奏,shooting。
