L48-1: The silent village
ɛl48-1: ðə ˈsaɪlənt ˈvɪlɪʤ
In this much-travelled world, there are still thousands of places which are inaccessible to tourists. We always assume that villagers in remote places are friendly and hospitable. But people who are cut off not only from foreign tourists, but even from their own countrymen can be hostile to travellers. Visits to really remote villages are seldom enjoyable -- as my wife and I discovered during a tour through the Balkans. We had spent several days in a small town and visited a number of old churches in the vicinity. These attracted many visitors, for they were not only of great architectural interest, but contained a large number of beautifully preserved frescoes as well. On the day before our departure, several bus loads of tourists descended on the town. This was more than we could bear, so we decided to spend our last day exploring the countryside.

知识笔记：
音标
/s/：先要将气流所通过的气流通道收窄，将舌前端抬起，靠近齿沿，但不要贴住发音时，气流由舌端与齿龈之间的窄缝中泄出，然后气流通过时发出可听擦音及气流泄出时伴有嘶嘶声，同时该音标是个清辅音，发音时声带不振动。
/z/ ：先要将气流所通过的气流通道收窄，将舌前端抬起，靠近齿沿，但不要贴住发音时，气流由舌端与齿龈之间的窄缝中泄出，然后气流通过时发出可听擦音及气流泄出时伴有嘶嘶声，同时该音标是个清辅音，发音时声带振动。
