练习材料:Lesson 66:Sweet  as honey 时长:1'32

In 1963, A Lancaster bomber crashed on Wallis Island, a remote place in the South Pacific, a long way west of Samoa.

ɪn ˈnaɪnˈtiːn ˈsɪksti θriː, ə ˈlæŋkəstə ˈbɒmə kræʃt ɒn ˈwɒlɪs ˈaɪlənd, ə rɪˈməʊt pleɪs ɪn ðə saʊθ pəˈsɪfɪk, ə lɒŋ weɪ wɛst ɒv səˈməʊə. 

The plane wasn't too badly damaged, but over the years, the crash was forgotten and the wreck remained undisturbed.


ðə pleɪn wɒznt tuː ˈbædli ˈdæmɪʤd, bʌt ˈəʊvə ðə jɪəz, ðə kræʃ wɒz fəˈgɒtn ænd ðə rɛk rɪˈmeɪnd ˌʌndɪˈstɜːbd.

Then in 1989, 26 years after the crash, the plane was accidentally rediscovered in an aerial survey of the island.

ðɛn ɪn 1989, 26 jɪəz ˈɑːftə ðə kræʃ, ðə pleɪn wɒz ˌæksɪˈdɛntəli ˌriːdɪsˈkʌvəd ɪn ən ˈeərɪəl ˈsɜːveɪ ɒv ði ˈaɪlənd.

By this time, a Lancaster bomber in reasonable condition was rare and was rescuing

baɪ ðɪs taɪm, ə ˈlæŋkəstə ˈbɒmər ɪn ˈriːznəbl kənˈdɪʃən wɒz reər ænd wɒz ˈrɛskjuːɪŋ

The French authorities had the plane packaged and moved in parts back to France.

ðə frɛnʧ ɔːˈθɒrɪtiz hæd ðə pleɪn ˈpækɪʤd ænd muːvd ɪn pɑːts bæk tuː ˈfrɑːns.

Now a group of enthusiasts are going to have the plane restored.

naʊ ə gruːp ɒv ɪnˈθjuːzɪæsts ɑː ˈgəʊɪŋ tuː hæv ðə pleɪn rɪsˈtɔːd.

It has four Rolls-Royce Merlin engines, but the group will need to have only three of them rebuilt.

ɪt hæz fɔː rəʊlz-rɔɪs ˈmɜːlɪn ˈɛnʤɪnz, bʌt ðə gruːp wɪl niːd tuː hæv ˈəʊnli θriː ɒv ðɛm ˌriːˈbɪlt.

Imagine their surprise and delight when they broke open the packing cases and found that the fourth engine was sweet as honey-still in perfect condition.

ɪˈmæʤɪn ðeə səˈpraɪz ænd dɪˈlaɪt wɛn ðeɪ brəʊk ˈəʊpən ðə ˈpækɪŋ ˈkeɪsɪz ænd faʊnd ðæt ðə fɔːθ ˈɛnʤɪn wɒz swiːt æz ˈhʌni-stɪl ɪn ˈpɜːfɪkt kənˈdɪʃən.

A colony of bees had turned the engine into a hive and it was totally preserved in beeswax.

知识笔记:/k/

1)首先舌后部隆起,紧贴上颚软腭,憋住气,使气流通道完全阻塞。

2)嘴巴张开,舌后部迅速降低,抵住软颚的舌离开软颚,气流突然冲出口腔。

注意:/k/是个清辅音,声带不震动,产生的声音不是声带而是气流,要注意与/g/的区别。
