And let me be alone again

今日发音练习重点：
cry in / be alone /j/ 元音连读加音
言之有物
1. rhyme and rhythm 韵律/押韵和节奏
rhyme 韵律 如：
How nice this is a day
A girl would like to say
She's like a flower fair in May
That always tries her full display
这里的 day/say/may/display属于押韵。
rhythm 节奏
(注意：大写字母是重读音节，小写字母为轻读音节）
How NICE /this IS / a DAY (三音步）
A GIRL / would LIKE / to SAY （三音步）
She's LIKE / a FLO /wer FAIR / in MAY （四音步）
That AL /ways TRIES / her FULL / disPLAY （四音步）
前两行是轻重格三音步，后两行是轻重格四音步，这样构成了抑扬格的节奏。就像音乐中的两拍子。音乐的拍节，在诗歌中就是节奏。
2. I've been a fool.
what a fool I've been=我曾是一个什么样的傻瓜
(the falling rain is) telling me just + what a fool I've been （瓢泼大雨）在告诉我，我曾是一个什么样的傻瓜
3. I wish 句式
wish 的用法：
表示与事实相反或不大可能实现的愿望——虚拟语气
(1) wish that sb did sth 希望某人现在做某事
例：I wish I were as strong as you. 我希望和你一样强壮。
(2) wish that sb had done sth 希望某人过去做某事
例：I wish you had told me earlier
要是你早点告诉我就好了。
(3) wish that sb would/could do sth 希望某人将来做某事
例：I wish you would succeed this time.
我希望你这次会成功。
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain. 我真希望雨停下来，让我无望地哭泣。
4. 词链儿：do XX in vain 白费功夫做XX / 徒劳地做XX
Peter feels he is doing the job in vain. Peter觉得自己做的工作是徒劳无效的（没有意义）。
拓展：try in vain to do XX 试图XX，但失败了。
我怎么也睡不着。
a. I tried in vain to sleep.
b. I tried to sleep, but in vain.
He tried to cover up his mistakes, but in vain. 他试图掩饰他的错误，但办不到。
活学活用
请用 do XX in vain 随意造句
Rhythm of the Rain
The Cascades
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain,
Telling me just what a fool I've been.
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain,
And let me be alone again.
The only girl I care about has gone away.
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know that when she left that day.
Along with her she took my heart.
Rain, please tell me, now does that seem fair
For her to steal my heart away when she don't care
I can't love another, when my heart is somewhere far away.
The only girl I've cared about has gone away.
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know that when she left that day.
Along with her she took my heart.
Rain, won't you tell her that I love her so
Please ask the sun to set her heart aglow
Rain in her heart and let the love we knew start to grow.
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain,
Telling me just what a fool I've been.
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain,
And let me be alone again.
Ooh listen to the falling rain
Pitter-patter,Pitter-patter...
