Introduction

  In some languages, the pronunciation of the letters remains constant, never changing or change very little.  Czech and Spanish are two examples.  English isn't like this.  We have long vowels short vowels and combinations of vowels.  Sometimes the pronunciation seems to change without reason.  Moreover, the speling rarely helps. Consider these three words:  food, blue, and blew - The vowel sounds are all the same, go figure.Has anybody ever looked at you after listening and asked, 'What?'  Last week, my student said through and I heard throw and was totally lost.

课文十 《大还是小》

有时候，我觉得自己很大。
我自己穿衣服的时候，我自己系鞋带的时候，我觉得自己很大。
有时候，我觉得自己很小。
我够不到按钮的时候，我听到雷声喊妈妈的时候，我觉得自己很小。
有时候，我希望自己不要长大。
更多的时候，我盼着自己快点儿长大。
