Today our essay comes from a leading figure in public life: John McCain, a Vietnam War veteran, presidential candidate and Republican senator from Arizona. Here's our series curator, independent producer Jay Allison.JAY ALLISON reporting:It is one thing to hold beliefs. It is another to have them tested. Senator John McCain's beliefs have undergone the scrutiny of public life and the harrowing personal trials of being a POW, and they've held up. The principles he lives by are the ones he's willing to die for. Recorded in his office in Phoenix, Arizona, here is Senator John McCain with his essay for This I Believe.JOHN McCAIN:I believe in honor, faith and service to one's country and to mankind. It's a lesson I learned from my family, from the men with whom I served in Vietnam and from my fellow Americans. Take William B. Rabnell(ph). He was in Patton's tank corps that went across Europe. I knew him, though, as an English teacher and football coach in my high school. He could make Shakespeare come alive, and he had incredible leadership talents that made me idolize him. What he taught me more than anything else was to strictly adhere to our school's honor code. If we stuck to those standards of integrity and honor, then we could be proud of ourselves; we could serve causes greater than our own self-interest.Years later I saw an example of honor in the most surprising of places. As a scared American prisoner of war in Vietnam, I was tied in torture ropes by my tormentors and left alone in an empty room to suffer through the night. Later in the evening a guard I had never spoken to entered the room and silently loosened the ropes to relieve my suffering. Just before morning that sameguard came back and retightened the ropes before his less-humanitarian comrades returned. He never said a word to me.Some months later on a Christmas morning, as I stood alone in the prison courtyard, that same guard walked up to me and stood next to me for a few moments. Then with his sandal, the guard drew a cross in the dirt. We stood wordlessly there for a minute or two venerating the cross, until the guard rubbed it out and walked away. To me, that was faith, a faith that unites and never divides, a faith that bridges unbridgeable gaps in humanity. It's the faith that we are all equal and endowed by our creator with inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It's a faith I would die to defend.My determination to act with honor and integrity impels me to work in service to my country. I believe that the means to real happiness and the true worth of a person is measured by how faithfully we serve a cause greater than ourself-interest.In America, we celebrate the virtues of the quiet hero, the modest man who does his duty without complaint or expectation of praise, the man who listens closely for the call of his country, and when she calls, he answers without reservation, not for fame or reward but for love.I have been an imperfect servant of my country, and my mistakes rightly humble me. I've tried to live by these principles of honor, faith and service because I want my children to live by them as well. I hope to be a good example to them, so that when their generation takes our place, they will make better decisions and continue to pave the path toward righteousness and freedom.。

Continuous Consonants in American English Pronunciation Fricative, nasal, glide, and liquid sounds are all similar types of sounds in that they are all continuous consonant sounds; they are the same from beginning to end.(This is unlike discontinuous consonants, which are sounds with two parts. The first part of the sound is the stopping of air, and the second part is how the air is released, see Linking Discontinuous consonants for examples.) Fricatives are sounds that are created when air is restricted in the vocal tract and pushed smoothly out through a small opening. English has nine fricative sounds:■voiced th (this)・unvoiced th (thing)・sh sound (she)・zh sound (usual)■s sound (see)-z sound (zoo)・ f sound (four)-v sound (very)・h sound (hello)Nasal sounds are sound that are created when air leaves our nose instead of our mouth during the sound.・m sound (me)■n sound (no)■n— sound (sing)Glide sounds are also called semi-vowels. These sounds flow smoothly out through the mouth.・y sound (yes)・w sound (we)Liquid sounds are the r sound and I sound. These sounds flow smoothly out through the mouth.sound (right)・「-I sound (/eft)Because fricative, nasal, glide and liquid sounds are continuous, they can blend smoothly easily from one sound to the next.。
