Lesson 90
What's for supper?
/wɒts/ /fɔː/ /ˈsʌpə/?
Fish and chips has always been a favourite dish in Britain, but
/fɪʃ/ /ænd/ /ʧɪps/ /hæz/ /ˈɔːlweɪz/ /biːn/ /ə/ /ˈfeɪvərɪt/ /dɪʃ/ /ɪn/ /ˈbrɪtn/, /bʌt/
as the oceans have been overfished, fish has become more
/æz/ /ði/ /ˈəʊʃənz/ /hæv/ /biːn/ ˌ/əʊvəˈfɪʃt/, /fɪʃ/ /hæz/ /bɪˈkʌm/ /mɔːr/
and more expensive. So it comes as a surprise to learn that
/ænd/ /mɔːr/ /ɪksˈpɛnsɪv/. /səʊ/ /ɪt/ /kʌmz/ /æz/ /ə/ /səˈpraɪz/ /tuː/ /lɜːn/ /ðæt/
giant fish are terrifying the divers on North Sea oil rigs. Oil
/ˈʤaɪənt/ /fɪʃ/ /ɑː/ /ˈtɛrɪfaɪɪŋ/ /ðə/ /ˈdaɪvə(ː)z/ /ɒn/ /nɔːθ/ /siː/ /ɔɪl/ /rɪgz/. /ɔɪl/
rigs have to be repaired frequently and divers, who often
/rɪgz/ /hæv/ /tuː/ /biː/ /rɪˈpeəd/ /ˈfriːkwəntli/ /ænd/ /ˈdaɪvə(ː)z/, /huː/ /ˈɒf(ə)n/
have to work in darkness a hundred feet under water, have
/hæv/ /tuː/ /wɜːk/ /ɪn/ /ˈdɑːknɪs/ /ə/ /ˈhʌndrəd/ /fiːt/ /ˈʌndə/ /ˈwɔːtə/, /hæv/
been frightened out of their wits by giantfish bumping into
/biːn/ /ˈfraɪtnd/ /aʊt/ /ɒv/ /ðeə/ /wɪts/ /baɪ/ /ˈʤaɪənt/ /fɪʃ/ /ˈbʌmpɪŋ/ /ˈɪntuː/
them as they work. Now they have had special cages made to
/ðɛm/ /æz/ /ðeɪ/ /wɜːk/. /naʊ/ /ðeɪ/ /hæv/ /hæd/ /ˈspɛʃəl/ /ˈkeɪʤɪz/ /meɪd/ /tuː/
protect them from these monsters. The fish are not sharks or
/prəˈtɛkt/ /ðɛm/ /frɒm/ /ðiːz/ /ˈmɒnstəz/. /ðə/ /fɪʃ/ /ɑː/ /nɒt/ /ʃɑːks/ /ɔː/
killer whales, but favourite eating varieties like cod and skate
/ˈkɪlə/ /weɪlz/, /bʌt/ /ˈfeɪvərɪt/ /ˈiːtɪŋ/ /vəˈraɪətiz/ /laɪk/ /kɒd/ /ænd/ /skeɪt/
which grow to unnatural sizes,sometimes as much as twelve
/wɪʧ/ /grəʊ/ /tuː/ /ʌnˈnæʧrəl/ /ˈsaɪzɪz/, /ˈsʌmtaɪmz/ /æz/ /mʌʧ/ /æz/ /twɛlv/
feet in length. Three factors have caused these fish to grow so
/fiːt/ /ɪn//lɛŋθ/. /θriː/ /ˈfæktəz/ /hæv/ /kɔːzd/ /ðiːz/ /fɪʃ/ /tuː/ /grəʊ/ /səʊ/
large: the warm water round the hot oil pipes under the sea;
/lɑːʤ:/ /ðə/ /wɔːm/ /ˈwɔːtə/ /raʊnd/ /ðə/ /hɒt/ /ɔɪl/ /paɪps/ /ˈʌndə/ /ðə/ /siː/
the plentiful supply of food thrown overboard by the crews
/ðə/ /ˈplɛntɪf(ə)l/ /səˈplaɪ/ /ɒv/ /fuːd/ /θrəʊn/ /ˈəʊvəbɔːd/ /baɪ/ /ðə/ /kruːz/
on the rigs; the total absence of fishing boats around the oil
/ɒn/ /ðə/ /rɪgz/; /ðə/ /ˈtəʊtl/ /ˈæbsəns/ /ɒv/ /ˈfɪʃɪŋ/ /bəʊts/ /əˈraʊnd/ /ði/ /ɔɪl/
rigs. As aresult, the fish just eat and eat and grow and grow in
/rɪgz/. /æz/ /ə/ /rɪˈzʌlt/, /ðə/ /fɪʃ/ /ʤʌst/ /iːt/ /ænd/ /iːt/ /ænd/ /grəʊ/ /ænd/ /grəʊ/ /ɪn/
the lovely warm water. Who eats who?
/ðə/ /ˈlʌvli/ /wɔːm/ /ˈwɔːtə/. /huː/ /iːts/ /huː?/
