016 Unit 2_Section Two_Part 3_C.mp3: Read after the 5 sentences in Unit 2 Section 2 Part 2 Passage . On the morning of December 17th, 1903, between 10:30 a.m. and noon, four flights were made, two by Orville Wright and two by Wilbur Wright. Under the direction of the operator it climbed upward on an inclined course till a height of 8 or 10 feet from the ground was reached . Into the teeth of a December gale the “Flyer” made its way forward with a speed of 10 miles an hour over the ground and 30 to 35 miles an hour through the air. The height chosen was sufficient for maneuvering in so gusty a wind and with no previous acquaintance with the conduct of the machine and its controlling mechanisms. In attempting to bring the machine down to the desired height, the operator turned the rudder too far, and the machine turned downward more quickly than had been expected. 备注:1. 如果无法播放插入的音频,请在Unit 2 第一课时首页听此音频。 2. 本题总分5分,评分标准包括:单词读音、停顿、重音、语调、流利程度等。
