十月晨读（The Crack of Dawn）

Day1.

十月晨读学习的目的：1.读懂经典演讲，2.赏析背诵材料，3.学习语言（附带）

10.15学习的段落：I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.

Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This monmentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions  of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.

I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.

1.happy与glad/delighted/thrilled等同意，却用的是平时会用的happy,用简单的词汇表达的感情更为真实

2.join with与join不同，查字典

3.go down in history 查字典

Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation.

1.Five score years ago模范前人，致敬葛底斯堡演讲

2.a great American 是Abraham Lincoln

3.“s”体现语言的韵律美

4.Emancipation Proclamation这种比较难的词汇查字典找准音后读到特别熟悉

This monmentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions  of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice.

1.句意理解，生词较多查字典，查图片加深记忆

2.语块

It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.

1.joyous 与前面的happy 同意，但不能替换

2.end简单好用 eg.When the song ends, people scatter.

感悟：1.很多都是可以用查来解决的问题，查字典查图片 ， 2.语言的美要多多的积累去体会

问题：1.查字典水平低，例如a great beacon light of hope，我不会想到去连着一起查，更不会想到去查图片，我只会想我不认识beacon去查查， 2.输入太少了

Day2: But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadlly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. One hundred years later, the Negro is still languishing in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land. And we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.

作业点评：

1.背诵不要贪多

2.要有节奏，平时怎么说话就怎么背诵

3.背以致用

读懂语言，熟悉语音；找准语块，注意细节；欲背从速，背完就用。

But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadlly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.

1.still is 和is still语言讲究的是一种习惯

2.cripple 是每日一词里面的

3.segregation 和discrimination 平行且尾韵

4.sadly 好用的小词

One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity.

大量的比喻，让文字更有画面感

One hundred years later, the Negro is still languishing in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land.

1.find oneself +n./ find doing

2.society 这两个词都要查字典

And we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.

1.-tize 结尾的词 eg. idoize/ demonize/ monetize/ weaponize

Day3：In the sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the "unalienable Rights" of "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked  "insufficient funds."

In the sense we've come to our nation's capital to cash a check.

When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir.

1.architect

This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the "unalienable Rights" of "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

1.black men as well as white men,as well as 强调后面的

It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are concerned.

1.obvious

2.default on

Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."

1.bad 一词体现用词只有合适不合适

2.check 这里用了重复的手法，非常好

附上独立宣言：We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

第四天我发现了微信语音变文字的功能，把背的挨个背进去，完全不能识别，中文居多。后面完全不可以静下心来学习了，我想是时候想想自己学英语的需求是什么，目标是什么，老师说我们要seek a calling,老师说我们的终极目标是现象级英语里面的新手任务。我想是该让心尘埃落定的去精心的做点什么，而不是浮躁的做过，导致因为你一直在这么做所以你没有自信！
