Lição 0010/2004 - Os Sons da Língua Inglesa
Na última aula aprendemos sobre pronúncia dos Passado Simples e Particípio Passado dos verbos Regulares. E já que estamos falando sobre sons, que tal algumas dicas para melhorarmos instantaneamente a nossa pronúncia antes de retomarmos o tempo passado? A lição é um pouco densa, mas o prêmio para quem dedicar uma ou duas horinhas de estudo é dormir falando como iniciante e acordar falando como intermediário... nada mal, heim? Para fazer os exercícios de leitura de 1 a 12, leiam o texto prestando atenção apenas na regra que está sendo ensinada. Nos exercícios 13 e 14 prestem atenção nas palavras sublinhadas. Vocês perceberão que já um trecho, em maiúscula que não foi trabalhado. Este vocês devem tentar fazer sozinhos. Um abraço, Vilma Cacciaguerra

An atheist was walking through the woods one day in Alaska, admiring all that evolution had crEAted. "What majestic trEEs! What a powerful river! What beautiful animals!" he said to himself. As he was walking alongside the river, he heard a rustling in the bushes behind him. Turning to look, he saw a 13 foot Kodiak bEAr beginning to charge towards him. He ran as fast as he could down the path. He lOOked over his shOUlder and saw that the bEAr was rapidly closing on him. Somehow, he ran even faster, so scared that tEArs came to his eyes. He lOOked again and the bEAr was even closer. His heart pounding in his chest, he tried to run faster yet. But alas, he tripped and fell to the grOUnd. As he rolled over to pick himself up, the bEAr was right over him, rEAching for him with its left paw and rAIsing its right paw to strike him. "OH MY GOD!..." Time stopped. The bEAr froze. The forest was silent. Even the river stopped moving... As a brilliant light shone upon the man, a thunderous voice came from all arOUnd, "YOU DENY MY EXISTENCE FOR ALL THESE YEARS, TEACH OTHERS THAT I DON'T EXIST AND EVEN CREDIT CREATION TO SOME COSMIC ACCIDENT. DO YOU EXPECT ME TO HELP YOU OUT OF THIS PREDICAMENT? AM I TO COUNT YOU AS A BELIEVER?" Difficult as it was, the atheist lOOked directly into the light and said, "It would be hypocritical to ask to be a Christian after all these yEArs, but perhaps you could make the bEAr a Christian?"
