CaptainFawcett's first passenger was a doctor whoflewfrom Birmingham to a lonely village in theWelsh mountains. Since then,Captain Fawcett hasflownpassengers to many unusual places. Once he landed on the roof of a block offlats andon

landed in a deserted car park. Captain Fawcett has just refused astrange request from a businessman. The man wanted to fly to Rockall, a lonelyisland in the Atlantic Ocean, but Captain Fawcett did not take him because thetrip was too dangerous.

现在来看看我们应该如何正确的发出/s/这个音。
上下齿自然合拢，嘴唇张开不要太大。
将舌前端抬起，靠近齿龈，但不要贴住，将气流所通过的气流通道收窄。
将口腔的空气形成气流由舌端与齿龈之间的窄缝中泄出，伴有嘶嘶声。
注意：/s/是个清辅音，声带不震动。要注意与/ð/,/θ/,/z/的区别。
