作业

1告诉我我读的是英音还是美音？

2 仔细听我的元音和尾音，找找有没有我经常给你们纠错的地方

我标注的地方要重点听

ONE of the unresolved—and rather bitter—disputes in evolutionary biology is between the creeps and the jerks. The creeps (so dubbed by the jerks) think that evolutionary change is gradual. The jerks (so dubbed by the creeps) think it happens in sudden jumps that are separated by long periods of stasis.

Probably, both are true. Work done a couple of years ago by Mark Pagel of Reading University, in England, suggests that about a fifth of evolutionary change happens jerkily at around the time new species form. The rest creeps in gradually over the millennia.

Species, however, are not the only things that evolve. Languages do too. And in the current edition of Science, Dr Pagel and his colleagues publish evidence that they do so in a way which looks intriguingly similar to what happens in species.

大家一定要注意尾音S TH ED等细节的地方。英语不是读的快就是读的好。

读任何一个文章。无论多短，多简单，都要注意细节，养成良好的习惯。

我从来就不提倡--先读熟再读准的说法，就象我们学汉语，一旦形成一种说话的模式就很难纠正了

是英音吧～～～

P.S：老师的gender是male啊，呵呵，beyond my imagination。一定好好练习～～

   让你失望了吗？

哇。。。东方的每个口语老师都是super good! 昨天听了小元老师的音频，今天又听了nsppp老师的音频。佩服的五体投地！真的很后悔自己没有早点来论坛学习。

来到论坛之后，发现自己英语的学习历程经历了一个轮回。现在回到了起点，从音标开始打基础。

东方的老师真的非常辛苦。在忙碌的工作之余，还在论坛上为我们指点迷津。真的很佩服你们！赞一个！

谢谢老师们！论坛的每一位老师！

呵呵，没有啊～正因为老师gender是male，才更觉得老师认真、谨慎显得难能可贵～～
