2. How to pronunce the diphthongs？
双元音音素由两个元音组成，发音时由一个元音向另一个元音滑动，口型有变化。前一个元音发音清晰响亮，且时间长；后一个元音发音模糊软弱，且时间短。特别要注意的三点是：
(1)不要将前后两个音断开，应连贯成为一个整体：
(2)不要因为后一个元音发音短小而将其忽略；
(3)发音时滑动过程要完整，时间要充分。

10. Practice When You Are Old When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look,
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how love fled,
And paced upon the mountains overhead,
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
