今日发音练习重点：

1. there are oceans we must cross↗/ and mountains that we must climb↘ 句子的节奏，虚词弱读

2. mountain 注意词内双元音和鼻音的衔接：/aʊn/；-tain /tən, tɪn, tn/

3. gain 注意词内双元音和鼻音的衔接：/eɪn/

4. cross loss / climb time 押韵

言之有物

1. oceans (that) we must cross 必须要跨越的海洋--大的名词

mountains that we must climb 必须要翻越的高山--大的名词

cross the/an ocean 飘洋过海/跨越大洋

climb the/a mountain 翻越高山

You can nevercross the oceanuntil you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.

没有勇气离岸，就永远无法越过海洋。

There's no glory in climbing a mountain if all you want to do is to get to the top. It's experiencing the climb itself──in all its moments of revelation, heartbreak, and fatigue──that has to be the goal.

如果你想做的只是登上山顶，那爬山就没有什么荣耀可言。我们的目标是体验攀登过程本身──在攀登过程中所有的启示、心碎和疲惫的时刻。

2. every gain must have a loss 有得必有失

gain n. 好处；利益

loss n. 失去

The gains balance the losses.

得失相当。

拓展词链儿：One man's loss is another man's gain.

（A's loss is B's gain）

一人之失即是他人之得；此消彼长。

Our loss is their gain.

我们之所失即他们之所得。

My gain of the pie is your loss of the pie.

我得到的馅饼就是你失去的馅饼。

原声例句：Because we were trained to believe that there always are winners and losers, and that your loss is my gain.

因为我们所受的教育让我们相信，世界上总有赢家和输家，你的损失就是我的收获。

原声例句：The legal profession's loss, I think, is our tremendous gain.

我认为，法律行业的损失，恰恰是我们的巨大收获。

有得必有失 相关表达：

You win some; you lose some.

Win a few; lose a few.

swings and roundabouts

There is no gain without a loss.

For every loss, there is a hidden gain. And for every gain, there is a hidden loss.

每一种损失背后都隐藏着一种收获。每一种收获，都有潜在的损失。
