Pronunciation
1. Read this part of the poem "If-" written by British poet Rudyard
Kipling. Notice the linking sounds. Then mark the linking sounds
after the model
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!'
2. Repeat the poem after the recording.
