昨天小千發現我thought的問題以後，我讓Scott聽聽，他說我說的thought象thut，發得金cup的元音。這幾個後元音很迷糊，一個原因是原來學的英音和美音不同，再就是那些symbols也很混亂，webster的符號又和各家不同，查字典的時候很慢，常常查完需要再查查熟悉的詞，確定是那個音。花功夫整了整，看了看講得巨慢的Jennifer講的，總算明白了些。

我覺得首先最大的收獲對我來說是找到了組織，自己一個人練發音練過一次，沒倆星期就放棄了。在這裏，有小千糾音，有大家拍磚，有一起讀的童鞋互相監督鼓勵，還在給別人拍磚的過程中知道容易犯的問題而加以避免，這次我覺得一定能堅持下去。當然學英語是個life-longprocess，糾音隻是個開始。
