这个练习出自Rachel’s English。请大家听听在发音,连读和节奏上有什么问题。Rachel’s comment to the original video is “The speech in this video is very slow and deliberate.” 应该比较适合练习。还试着想读出原文的confession语气,好象还是有差距。

Video Text:

There are no more barriers to cross.  All I have in common with the uncontrollable and the insane, the vicious and the evil, all the mayhem I have caused and my utter indifference toward it, I have now surpassed.  My pain is constant and sharp, and I do not hope for a better world for anyone.  In fact, I want my pain to be inflicted on others.  I want no one to escape.  But even after admitting this, there is no catharsis.  My punishment continues to elude me, and I gain no deeper knowledge of myself.  No new knowledge can be extracted from my telling.  This confession has meant nothing.
