13 分钟Hello and welcome to the English Like A Native podcast.
My name is Anna and you're listening to week 21,
day 2 of Your English Five A Day, the second season.
With this series, you are growing day by day, episode by episode.
You're growing your vocabulary, you're improving your listening skills,
becoming more familiar with the structures of English.
And in time, you'll start to feel more like yourself when communicating in English.
So keep up the habit and keep tuning in.
We start today, as we always do, with a snapshot.
As Jack trudged up the steep incline behind his farm,
the wooden handles of his horse-drawn plough digging into his palms,
he noticed... how the thick fog had reduced visibility to barely twenty feet ahead.
A buzzard, perched majestically on the weathered fence post,
seemed to watch him with its keen eyes somehow piercing through the mist
as it surveyed the valley below.
Though exhausted from his morning's labour, Jack paused to appreciate the sight.
Knowing that mating season would soon bring pairs of these magnificent birds performing their aerial dances above his fields.
Alright, let's dive into the vocabulary starting with the noun incline.
Incline.
We spell this I-N-C-L-I-N-E.
