Lesson 41 Do you call that a hat? 时长：76s
'Do you call that a hat?' I said to my wife
duː juː kɔːl ðæt ə hæt?' aɪ sɛd tuː maɪ waɪf
'You needn't be so rude about it' my wife answered as she looked at herself in the mirror.
juː niːdnt biː səʊ ruːd əˈbaʊt ɪt maɪ waɪf ˈɑːnsəd æz ʃiː lʊkt æt hɜːˈsɛlf ɪn ðə ˈmɪrə.
I sat down on one of those modern chairs with holes in it and waited .
aɪ sæt daʊn ɒn wʌn ɒv ðəʊz ˈmɒdən ʧeəz wɪð həʊlz ɪn ɪt ænd ˈweɪtɪd.
We had been in the hat shop for half an hour and my wife was still in front of the mirror.
wiː hæd biːn ɪn ðə hæt ʃɒp fɔː hɑːf ən ˈaʊər ænd maɪ waɪf wɒz stɪl ɪn frʌnt ɒv ðə ˈmɪrə.
'We musn't buy things we don't need.' I remarked suddenly. I regretted saying it almost once.
wiː musn't baɪ θɪŋz wiː dəʊnt niːd.' aɪ ˈrɪˈmɑːkt ˈsʌdnli. aɪ rɪˈgrɛtɪd ˈseɪɪŋ ɪt ˈɔːlməʊst wʌns.
'You needn't have said that,' my wife answered
juː niːdnt hæv sɛd ðæt,' maɪ waɪf ˈɑːnsəd
'I needn't remind you of that terrible tie you bought yesterday'.
aɪ niːdnt ˈrɪmaɪnd juː ɒv ðæt ˈtɛrəbl paɪ juː bɔːt ˈjɛstədeɪ.
'I find it beautiful,' I said.'A man can never have too many ties.'
aɪ faɪnd ɪt ˈbjuːtəfʊl,' aɪ sɛd.ə mæn kæn ˈnɛvə hæv tuː ˈmɛni taɪz.'
'And a woman can't have too many hats,' she answered.
ænd ə ˈwʊmən kɑːnt hæv tuː ˈmɛni hæts,' ʃiː ˈɑːnsəd.
Ten minutes later, we walked out of the shop together.
tɛn ˈmɪnɪts ˈleɪtə, wiː wɔːkt aʊt ɒv ðə ʃɒp təˈgɛðə.
My wife was wearing a hat that looks like a lighthouse.
maɪ waɪf wɒz ˈweərɪŋ ə hæt ðæt lʊks laɪk ə laɪt haʊs.

知识笔记：/ɑː/
1）嘴巴放松张大，上下牙齿全部张开，双唇呈圆形。
2）舌身后缩，舌尖离开下齿，舌后部稍抬高。
3）震动声带，推出气流发出/ɑː/音。像说："啊"
注意：/ɑː/是个长元音，发音要稍长一些。
练习感悟： 这篇很绕口啊，/æ/ /aɪ/ /ɑː/混在一起。。练习了很多遍就顺口啦。
