Lesson61 Trouble with the Hubble
The Hubble telescope was launched into space by NASA on April 20,1990 at a cost of over a billion dollars.

Right from the start there was trouble with the Hubble.
raɪt frɒm ðə stɑːt ðeə wɒz ˈtrʌbl wɪð ði Hubble.
The pictures it sent us were very disappointing because its main mirror was faulty!

NASA is now going to put the telescope right, so it will soon be sending up four astronauts to repair it.

The shuttle Endeavour will be taking the astronauts to the Hubble.
ðə ˈʃʌtl ɪnˈdɛvə wɪl biː ˈteɪkɪŋ ði ˈæstrənɔːts tuː ði Hubble.
A robot-arm from the Endeavour will grab the telescope and hold it while the astronauts make the necessary repairs.

Of course, the Hubble is above the earth's atmosphere, so it will soon be sending us the clearest pictures of the stars and distant galaxies that we have ever seen.
ɒv kɔːs, ði Hubble ɪz əˈbʌv ði ɜːθs ˈætməsfɪə, səʊ ɪt wɪl suːn biː ˈsɛndɪŋ ʌs ðə ˈklɪərɪst ˈpɪkʧəz ɒv ðəstɑːz ænd ˈdɪstənt ˈgæləksiz ðæt wiː hæv ˈɛvə siːn.
The Hubble will tell us a great deal about the age and size of the universe.
ði Hubble wɪl tɛl ʌs ə greɪt diːl əˈbaʊt ði eɪʤ ænd saɪz ɒv ðə ˈjuːnɪvɜːs.
By the time you read this, the Hubble's eagle eye will have sent us thousands and thousands of wonderful pictures.

知识笔记:
/dz/
1)舌端贴住齿龈,堵住气流。
2)舌尖略微下降,气流随之泄出形成先破擦,同时声带震动发出/dz/音。
注意:/dz/是个浊辅音,发音时声带震动。/dz/有点类似于汉语中的"子"(轻音),但发音时有爆破的感觉,而且声带振动较强。
Thousands /ˈθaʊzəndz/
单词:
Astronaut宇航员 necessary 必要的(拼写错)

累,有点头疼,脑子里想了一百种不想学习的理由,还是继续下去了,而且我明明可以学的更好的,先好好睡一觉,睡醒了就好了。
