Postcards always spoil my holidays. Last summer, I went to Italy. I visited museums and sat in public gardens. A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian.'Then he lent me a book. I read a few lines, but I did not understand a word. Every day I thought about postcards. My holidays passed quickly, but I did not send any cards to my friends. On the last day I made a big decision. I got up early and bought thirty-seven cards. I spent the whole day in my room, but I did not write a single card!

练习感悟
今天开始练习时,看到音标,多了几分刻意,因为音标和原文独立放置,读了好几遍音标,再对着原文阅读还是有些不适,觉着自己读错了。如果有更多时间,是想逐字逐句都多读几遍的。今天也着重练习了音标[ə],读到visited。怎么也读不顺就去查了一下这个音标。顺带也刻意练习了昨天的音标[ɛ],感觉有些发音奇怪,但念出来已经顺畅多了。不小心还闹了个笑话把[ɜ]也当成了[ɛ]来发音,念ɜrli 的时候感觉完全和自己以前的读法大相径庭,就算以前念得不对也不致差异这么大,回头一比较才发现自己自己音标看错了。要再接再厉啊。
