Confucius’ idea
Learning without reflecting leads to confusion.
Review the old and learn the new.
Make no social distinctions in reaching.
To learn and at due time to repeat what one has learnt, isn’t that after all a pleasure
Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you.
When seeing a person with high caliber, strive to be his equal.
Pronunciation
Liaison
Definition：link the consonant（C ) with the vowel (V) of the next word.
Rules:
①C+V: two adjacent words, the former one ends with C, the latter begins with V.
Look at the photos.
Add examples of powerful prepositions in English.
②r/re+V: two adjacent words, the former ends with -r or -re， the latter begins with V.
There are many kinds.
③V+V: two adjacent words, if the former one ends with the pronunciation / / or /i:/, the latter word will add the pronunciation /j/; if the former one ends with the pronunciation / / or /u:/, the latter word will add the pronunciation /w/.
I agree. [a j ɡri ]
Go out of the room. [ɡ uw aut v]
Pronunciation
Liaison
Read the part of the poem “If-”
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: “Hold on!”
Thank you for your listening!
