2018年10月晨读复盘

    转眼又是一个月，每个月都有好多事情要忙，这个月更甚，还忙出了病，但是这十天的晨读我每天都在，中间失声了几天痛苦万分，还是要好好爱惜身体。
    以前只是知道I have a dream有多经典，但是这是第一次完整地学习这个经典演讲，除了每天的背诵，Eric对于字词和文化背景的讲解也促使我有了更深入的认识。本次晨读复盘如下：

1. 时刻谨记，当英文读出来像中文的时候，就一定是读错了。读错最多的单词是children，这个词我之前没有注意这么多，后来自己琢磨，发现自己确实读的不太对。以后读单词的时候一定会牢记。

2. 有很多的词和短语的意思和用法是第一次见到，做个简要整理，促使自己再巩固一遍。
   *go down in history 名垂千古
   *a great beacon light of hope 是一个整体，不能断开
   *sear: fix (an image or memory) permanently in someone's mind or memory
   *segregation: the action or state of setting someone or something apart from others
   *languish: be forced to remain in an unpleasant place or situation 受苦，受折磨
   *dramatize: exaggerate the seriousness or importance of (an incident or situation) 注意-ize结尾的词

• cash a check: 兑支票

• engulf: powerfully affect (someone); overwhelm 涌上心头
• be inextricably bound to: 紧密相连

  *live...out 实践

  老东家的motto：Hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope and you can make your life a splendid one.

3. 文章赏析

• Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. 插入语的用法，还有头韵。
  *One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. 语言和选词很棒，还有前后的对照。
• we've come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.
  America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."重复出现，加强气势。
• 整篇的排比非常多，Now is the time...强调现在是时候做某事儿了，增强演讲的气势。后面有I have a dream...还有with this faith...
  *Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. quicksands 和 solid rock 对照，流沙和磐石
  *And there will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights. There will be neither...nor...句式。
  *have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny. And they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.又是前后对照，be tied up with, be inextricably bound to.

4. 语音语调

• 升降调要根据文字的内容和结构来决定，断句也是如此。
• 用 supercalifragilisticexpialidocious 练习发音
• unalienable和inextricably 的读音多多练习。
• north, northern 的发音区别
• crooked place /krʊkɪd/

5. 收获及思考

• 背诵确实是提升英文的重要方法，第一天第二天开始背，记得非常清楚，慢慢地增加了数量之后，大脑需要高速运转想到之前背过的某一句，到今天的时候，前面的句子一下子就想起来了，奇妙的旅程。
  *背诵要在理解意思的基础上，这样可以让大脑中呈现完成的语块信息，确实有效。
  *经典的东西背诵的时候会不自然地产生一种敬畏感，一个词都不敢错。
  *词的用法没有好坏之分，只要恰当有力，就能产生巨大的影响。
  *继续重视反馈，每天的背诵语音都会有小伙伴的点评，也让自己明确知道哪些词读的不太对。
  *小伙伴的力量太强大了，身边有牛人围绕，怎能不进步。
