【跟着英剧练发音】Parades End E03

文本：

Other times they come whistling towards you in a thoughtful sort of a way, and then go, “Crump!” and the screw-cap flies off, hurtling through the air, screaming. There’s one kind of shell which comes with a crescendo¹ like an express train, only faster. Another kind makes a noise like tearing calico, louder and louder. The largest kind of the ones which burst in the sky make a double crack, like wet canvas being shaken out by a giant. Such immense explosions to kill such small, weak animals.
