Lesson71 Afamous clock
When you visit London,one of the first things you will see is Big Ben, the famous clock which can be heard all overthe world on the B.B.C. If the Houses ofParliamenthad hot been burned down in 1834, the greatclock would never have been erected. Big Ben takes its name from Sir BenjaminHall who was responsible for the making of the clock when the new Houses ofParliament were being built. It is not only ofimmensesize, but is extremely accurate as well.Officials from GreenwichObservatory have theclock checked twice a day. On the B.B.C. you can hear the clock when it isactually striking because microphones are connected to the clocktower. Big Ben has rarelygone wrong. Once, however, it failed to give the correct time. A painterwho had been working on the tower hung a pot of paint on one of the hands andslowed it down !

3、发音方法
现在来看看我们应该如何正确的发出/m/这个音。
这个音发音很简音,首先双唇闭拢,舌头自然放平,软颚下垂。
气流从鼻腔泻出,同时振动声带。
注意:/m/是个鼻音、浊辅音,发音时一定是闭拢双唇。发音时会感觉到嘴唇也会一起振动。
4、单词练习
下面列出发/m/音的字母或字母组合的单词,多听发音并练习。
a、英语中发/m/这个音时一定有字母"m",字母及字母组合有m,mm一般都发/m/,例词:
mail /meɪl/ n.邮件
man /mæn/ n.男人
mine /maɪn/ pron.我的
mile /maɪl/ n.英里
magic /'mædʒɪk/ n.巫术
March /mɑːtʃ/ n.三月
common /'kɒmən/ adj.共同的
grammar /'græmə/ n.语法
summer /'sʌmə/ n.夏季
a、当字母组合"mb"出现在单词末尾时,其中的b不发音,只发/m/音,例词:
lamb /læm/ n.羔羊
climb /klaɪm/ vi.爬
bomb /bɒm/ vt.轰炸
mud /mʌd/ n.泥
move /muːv/ vi.移动
swim /swɪm/ vi.游泳
smart /smɑːt/ adj.聪明的
animal /'ænɪməl/ n.动物
sample /'sɑːmpl/ n.样品
