英語情景會話
(以下s代表Sue,A代表Ann)
S: What are you up to next weekend?
A: Not yet.
S: Why don't you have a picnic with us? This season is great for a picnic.
A: Great, I'd love to. Where do you plan to go?
S: We are going to the lake in the suburbs.
A: Good idea. I love the grass, the sun and the fresh air there. Oh, we can have the picnic by the lake and enjoy the scenery.
S: Yeah. After that, we can go fishing by the lake.
A: We also can chat while lying on the grass in the sun. What do I need to take?
S: I'II bring vegetables, sandwiches, meat and some drinks.
A: Okay. And I will prepare the knife, pot and the pan. I think we can get some firewood by the lake.
S: Great! Don't forget your digitals camera.
A: Yes. We would have a ball there.
英語筆記
1.not 中的/t/ 遇到后面的/j/,連讀為/t?/,not yet 讀作/n? t?et/。
2.good 的尾音/d/與idea 元音/ai/連讀,發(fā)音為/ɡ? da?d??/。
3.sandwiches 單詞內部出現消音現象,字母"d" 不發(fā)音,讀作/?sænwid?z/。
英語語音語調
/t/與/j/,的連讀
你聽到的not yet從/n?t jet/變成了/n? t?et/,這是因為/t/與/j/發(fā)生了輔音與輔音連讀、中間不停頓的現象,變成了另外一個輔音/t?/,這是口語中輔音與輔音相遇時的一種變音情況。類似的例子還有:
Aren't you supposed to do that?
你不應該那樣做嗎?
aren't you/ɑ:nt j?/ 一/ɑ: nt??/
口語中,如果/t/與/j/在單詞內部相遇,同撣遵循此規(guī)律,讀作/t?/,如:
attitude/?ætitju:d/一/?ætit?u:d/
注:student 例外,st 變音后讀作/sd/,不發(fā)生上述變化。
