Lesson56 Faster than sound!
Once a year, a race is held for old cars.
wʌns ə jɪə, ə reɪs ɪz hɛld fɔːr əʊld kɑːz.
A lot of cars entered for this race last year and there was a great deal of excitement just before it began.
ə lɒt ɒv kɑːz ˈɛntəd fɔː ðɪs reɪs lɑːst jɪər ænd ðeə wɒz ə greɪt diːl ɒv ɪkˈsaɪtmənt ʤʌst bɪˈfɔːr ɪt bɪˈgæn.
One of the most handsome cars was a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost.
wʌn ɒv ðə məʊst ˈhænsəm kɑːz wɒz ə rəʊlz-rɔɪs ˈsɪlvə gəʊst.
The most unusual car was a Benz which had only three wheels.
ðə məʊst ʌnˈjuːʒʊəl kɑː wɒz ə bɛnz wɪʧ hæd ˈəʊnli θriː wiːlz.
Built in 1885, it was the oldest car taking part.
bɪlt ɪn 1885, ɪt wɒz ði ˈəʊldɪst kɑː ˈteɪkɪŋ pɑːt.
After a great many loud explosions, the race began.
ˈɑːftər ə greɪt ˈmɛni laʊd ɪksˈpləʊʒənz, ðə reɪs bɪˈgæn.
Many of the cars broke down on the course and some drivers spent more time under their cars than in them !
ˈmɛni ɒv ðə kɑːz brəʊk daʊn ɒn ðə kɔːs ænd sʌm ˈdraɪvəz spɛnt mɔː taɪm ˈʌndə ðeə kɑːz ðæn ɪn ðɛm !
A few cars, however, completed the race.
ə fjuː kɑːz, haʊˈɛvə, kəmˈpliːtɪd ðə reɪs.
The winning car reached a speed of forty miles an hour--much faster than any of its rivals.
ðə ˈwɪnɪŋ kɑː riːʧt ə spiːd ɒv ˈfɔːti maɪlz ən ˈaʊə--mʌʧ ˈfɑːstə ðæn ˈɛni ɒv ɪts ˈraɪvəlz.
It sped downhill at the end of the race and its driver had a lot of trouble trying to stop it.
ɪt spɛd ˌdaʊnˈhɪl æt ði ɛnd ɒv ðə reɪs ænd ɪts ˈdraɪvə hæd ə lɒt ɒv ˈtrʌbl ˈtraɪɪŋ tuː stɒp ɪt.
The race gave everyone a great deal of pleasure.
ðə reɪs geɪv ˈɛvrɪwʌn ə greɪt diːl ɒv ˈplɛʒə.
It was very different from modern car races but no less exciting.
ɪt wɒz ˈvɛri ˈdɪfrənt frɒm ˈmɒdən kɑː ˈreɪsɪz bʌt nəʊ lɛs ɪkˈsaɪtɪŋ.

练习感悟:
1.我在用新概念的书辅助朗读,每个材料后面有摘要写作这一项,提出的问题就是文章的几个重点,更换了同义词而且使用连词把句子组合起来,完成这个几乎就是一个复述,我每次复述完会看一看是否包括重点的几个句子,但还是没能够到使用同义词和用连词这个阶段,复述出来的内容还是更像背诵了,要不就是词不达意。同义词也不是很难的trouble和difficult,这种程度我也可以,只是没有这个意识。
2.感冒了老眼昏花,而且这几天休息也不好,早点睡了,晚安。
