Lesson88 Trapped in a mine

Six men have been trapped in a mine for seventeen hours. If they are not brought to the surface soon they may lose their lives. However, rescue operations are proving difficult. If explosives are used, vibrations will cause the roof of the mine to collapse. Rescue workers are therefore drilling a hole on the north side of the mine. They intend to bring the men up in a special capsule. If there had not been a hard layer of rock beneath the soil, they would have completed the job in a few hours. As it is, they have been drilling for sixteen hours and they still have a long way to go. Meanwhile, a microphone, which was lowered into the mine two hours ago, has enabled the men to keep in touch with the closest relatives. Though they are running out of food and drink, the men are cheerful and confident that they will get out soon . They have been told that rescue operations are progressing smoothly. If they knew how difficult it was to drill through the hard rock, they would lose heart.

任务配置： L0+L1+L4

知识笔记：

/ð/ 

1）首先将舌尖微微伸出略微露出齿外，置于上下门齿之间，舌身成扁平。

2）气流从舌齿间的窄缝中泄出，同时声带震动发出/ð/这个音。

注意：/ð/是舌齿、浊辅音，舌尖和下齿之间的气流通道非常窄小。发这个音主要是舌尖与上齿之间的摩擦，所以千万不要紧紧咬住舌尖，只要轻轻咬一咬就行了！
