小千发现我一个毛病thought的元音发得不够靠后，这个还需要练。大家看还有没有其他砖。[阅读全文]

昨天小千发现我thought的问题以后，我让Scott听听，他说我说的thought象thut，发得金cup的元音。这几个后元音很迷糊，一个原因是原来学的英音和美音不同，再就是那些symbols也很混乱，webster的符号又和各家不同，查字典的时候很慢，常常查完需要再查查熟悉的词，确定是那个音。花功夫整了整，看了看讲得巨慢的Jennifer讲的，总算明白了些。

我觉得首先最大的收获对我来说是找到了组织，自己一个人练发音练过一次，没俩星期就放弃了。在这里，有小千纠音，有大家拍砖，有一起读的童鞋互相监督鼓励，还在给别人拍砖的过程中知道容易犯的问题而加以避免，这次我觉得一定能坚持下去。当然学英语是个life-longprocess，纠音只是个开始。
真正纠音过程我最大的收获是学习方法：
