新概念2 lesson82 Monster or fish?

Fishermen and sailors sometimes claim to have seen monsters in the sea./ Though people have often laughed at stories told by seamen,/ it is now known that many of these ‘monsters’ /which have at times beensighted/ are simply strange fish./  Occasionally, unusual creatures are washed to the shore, / but they are rarely caught out at sea./  Some time ago, however, /a peculiarfish was caught near Madagascar. /A small fishing boat was carried miles out to sea by the powerful fish as it pulled on the line. / Realizing that this was no ordinary fish,/ the fisherman made every effort not to damage it in any way. /When it was eventually brought to shore,/ it was found to be over thirteen feet long. /It had a head like a horse, /big blue eyes,/shiningsilver skin, /and a bright red tail. /The fish,/ which has since been sent to a museum /where it is being examined by a scientist,/ is called an oarfish. /Such creatures have rarely been seen alive by man/ as they live at a depth of six hundred feet./

练习感悟：

1第一次接触国际音标，需要花较多时间于网上学习。原来音标有分英音及美音。自己下载的素材是英标；

2/ 控制时间时，重点时掌握录音/讲者的节奏，只能多听，多模仿；

3/ 朗读时要控制呼吸及情绪，一走神就容易读错。
