ALANDUAN-3种声线3种风格朗读灵格风英语课文

重温学生时代朗读过的灵格风英语课文，尝试用三种不同声线不同风格朗读第45 课课文《Motoring 汽车驾驶》。熟悉灵格风英语发音的人听听我的英音发音是不是很接近那个留声机唱片上50年代那几位英国语音学家和声音艺术家原声的发音呢？欢迎大家批评指正并相互交流英音学习体会。

MOTORING
If you’re thinking of taking your car to England, you should be familiar with the vocabulary of motoring and you should know something about motoring regulations in England. For instance, when driving, we keep to the left-handside of the road, and we overtake on the right. We have a speed limit of thirty miles an hour in towns and built-up areas, so be careful not to exceed it, and remember to keep an eye on the traffic lights. If the green lights showing, it means you can go on, but when the red light appears you must stop at once. Let’s have a look at the car in the picture. Its a six-cylinder 20 h.p. (horse-power) saloon. There’s a compartment at the back for luggage, the spare wheel, the tools, and the jack. The petrol tank holds fourteen gallons and the car does about eighteen miles to the gallon.

Now learn the names of the various parts: chassis, bonnet, body, wheels, tyres, radiator, engine, steering-wheel. The windscreens fitted with windscreen wipers. On the dash-board are the speedometer, a clock, the petrol gauge, starter and so on. The clutch, the foot-brake and the accelerator are at the driver's feet. The gear-lever and the hand-brake are within reach of his hand.

The driver has just drawn up at a garage. He’s been having trouble with the engine it's been misfiring and pulling badly.
