练习材料：Lesson 91 Three men in a basket 时长：88s

A pilot noticed a balloon which seemed to be making for a Royal Air Force Station nearby.   

ə ˈpaɪlət ˈnəʊtɪst ə bəˈluːn wɪʧ siːmd tuː biː ˈmeɪkɪŋ fɔːr ə ˈrɔɪəl eə fɔːs ˈsteɪʃən ˈnɪəbaɪ.

He informed the station at once, but no one there was able to explain the mystery.

hiː ɪnˈfɔːmd ðə ˈsteɪʃən æt wʌns, bʌt nəʊ wʌn ðeə wɒz ˈeɪbl tuː ɪksˈpleɪn ðə ˈmɪstəri.

The officer in the control tower was very angry when he heard the news, because balloons can be a great danger to aircraft.

ði ˈɒfɪsər ɪn ðə kənˈtrəʊl ˈtaʊə wɒz ˈvɛri ˈæŋgri wɛn hiː hɜːd ðə njuːz, bɪˈkɒz bəˈluːnz kæn biː ə greɪt ˈdeɪnʤə tuː ˈeəkrɑːft.

He said that someone might be spying on the station and the pilot was ordered to keep track of the strange object.

hiː sɛd ðæt ˈsʌmwʌn maɪt biː ˈspaɪɪŋ ɒn ðə ˈsteɪʃən ænd ðə ˈpaɪlət wɒz ˈɔːdəd tuː kiːp træk ɒv ðə streɪnʤ ˈɒbʤɪkt.

The pilot managed to circle the balloon for some time.

ðə ˈpaɪlət ˈmænɪʤd tuː ˈsɜːkl ðə bəˈluːn fɔː sʌm taɪm.

He could make out three men in a basket under it and one of them was holding a pair of binoculars.

hiː kʊd meɪk aʊt θriː mɛn ɪn ə ˈbɑːskɪt ˈʌndər ɪt ænd wʌn ɒv ðɛm wɒz ˈhəʊldɪŋ ə peər ɒv bɪˈnɒkjʊləz.

When the balloon was over the station, the pilot saw one of the men taking photographs.

wɛn ðə bəˈluːn wɒz ˈəʊvə ðə ˈsteɪʃən, ðə ˈpaɪlət sɔː wʌn ɒv ðə mɛn ˈteɪkɪŋ ˈfəʊtəgrɑːfs.

Soon afterwards, the balloon began to descend and it landed near an airfield.

suːn ˈɑːftəwədz, ðə bəˈluːn bɪˈgæn tuː dɪˈsɛnd ænd ɪt ˈlændɪd nɪər ən ˈeəfiːld. 

The police were called in, but they could not arrest anyone, for the basket contained two Members of Parliament and the Commanding Officer of the station!

ðə pəˈliːs wɜː kɔːld ɪn, bʌt ðeɪ kʊd nɒt əˈrɛst ˈɛnɪwʌn, fɔː ðə ˈbɑːskɪt kənˈteɪnd tuː ˈmɛmbəz ɒv ˈpɑːləmənt ænd ðə kəˈmɑːndɪŋ ˈɒfɪsər ɒv ðə ˈsteɪʃən!

As the Commanding Officer explained later, one half of the station did not know what the other half was doing!æz ðə kəˈmɑːndɪŋ ˈɒfɪsər ɪksˈpleɪnd ˈleɪtə, wʌn hɑːf ɒv ðə ˈsteɪʃən dɪd nɒt nəʊ wɒt ði ˈʌðə hɑːf wɒz ˈdu(ː)ɪŋ!

练习感悟：

在读的时候自己好像有个规律，每次第一遍刚开始读的时候最放松，往往第一遍的节奏，流利度都很好，但还是会绝的不够好开始读第二遍，然后把不确定的音标特地查一遍，标出来，单独练习几遍。这种时候再去练习就会觉得紧张，于是每每遇到查了的词会卡住，或者觉得发的不够好，于是就开始一遍又一遍的读，读到自己有些烦躁， 但同时也熟悉了，这个时候稍微换个轻松点的语气去读，效果就很好。

最近总觉得这样子自己开始对待这个练习的态度变得散漫了：我需要提醒一下自己：想想自己平时每次到需要用到英语的时候才着急后悔的样子，你需要继续练习并且做的更多！
