大家好,我的口语学习二,继续连载开始~~
首先说明一下,今天遇到了一点小状况,我买的那本书竟然少了12和13这两页的那一张纸,郁闷,十分郁闷,相当郁闷。发誓以后再也不在淘宝上买书了,瑕疵货,还不打折扣。也同时奉劝大家不要在TAOBAO上买书,吸取小弟的教训啊!!~~
由于以上原因,今天的学习从“爆破音”开始,目录上说签名还有两节是说“前元音”和“种原因”的,算啦,反正看不到了。这个“爆破音”的名字以前在上新东方网络学校的口语课时听过,又叫“塞音”,和口腔的气流控制能力有关。打个比方:[p]和这两个就是前一个送气但声带不震动,后一个相反。我想:这个控制能力难道还练得出来吗?因该不会吧。自己读一读下面一组单词,别人听得懂就说明你爆破音掌握了:以[p]和为例 pie-buy port-bought pit-bit ~~ 这本书上还说了一种错误爆破音的例子,如:speak——/sphi:k/,stand——/sthand/ (h表示送气),这其实就是简单的字母浊化,讲得那么复杂,想吓人啊~~ 在这里,只要把speak里面的p读成,把stand里面的t读成[d]就可以了。 呵呵,看来那些专家还受毛老爷爷的影响,脑筋还没有理顺~~~!!!
接下来我想说说本书中最难发的两组音标,要命啊,模仿不出来~~~ 第一个是/s/和/z/这两个,书上原文是这样讲的:“英语中/s/和/z/的发音部位与汉语不同,前者舌尖抵上齿龈,后者舌尖触及上齿背或下齿。” 不信大家试试,这样就完全吧口堵住了,更别说发声了啊。我怀疑编书的专家是不是各个都舌尖如针??~~佩服佩服。 如果哪位高人理解了这句话的本质,请教教小弟我啊!!~~ 第二组是/θ/和/e/,再附上原文:“从/s/出发,舌尖(又扯上舌尖了,讨厌)轻触上齿背,然后送气即为/θ/,震动声带即为/e/。”我怎么感觉在读具体单词的时候这个区别根本没办法体现出来呀??~~ 不信大家来两个试试:/θ/-/e/ theme-these; breath-breathe; teeth-teethe; worth-worthy.如果有谁找到技巧了,留言留言啊!! 说到这里,突然想起来后面有一道变态的题目,我附上自己的答案,希望大家纠正纠正啊:
朗读写列对话,发/θ/音的th用红色,发/e/音的th用蓝色:
A:How are Judith and Timothy Thorpe's triplets?
B:Those three? Well...both Heather and Cathy are very healthy, but I think they're having rather a lot of trouble with Matthew.
A:With Matthew? What's the matter with Matthew?
B:Teething troubles, I think, and then he won't eat anything.
A:Teething troubles? But how old are the triplets now?
B:I think they're about 13 months.
A:Thirteen months? Oh, I thought they were a lot younger than that.
B:No, they must be 13 months because it was their 1st birthday at the end of last month-on the 13th... or was it the 31st?
A:Oh dear,and I didn't send them anything, not even a birthday card... 写完啦,题目反正我是觉得变态,希望如果有人总结得出规律,就留言发表啊!!~~
这个单元里面最极品的是有一个单词重音规律表,现附上,分享
1)双音节和三音节的重音一般落在第一个音节上:('表示重音)
'comrade 'family
'country 'library
'window 'demonstrate
2)但如果第一个音节是一个前缀,则重音落在第二个音节(即词根)上
be'long pre'pare
in'tense im'prove
ex'pense ac'complish
3)有些词没有前缀,但重音落在第二个音节上(主要是从语法中借入的词)。这样的词不多,要个别记住
ma'chine po'lice
cam'paign po'lite
ca'nal ho'tel
4)多音节词的重音一般落在倒数第三个音节上:
sig'nificant 'modernize
phe'nomenon 'organize
phi'losophy po'litical
5)单词中包含有下列后缀,重音落在后缀前一音节上:
-ion 'nation revo'lution
dic'tation per'mission
-ic his'toric he'roic
ar'tistic pho'netic
-ical me'chanical 'chemical
po'litical 'critical
-ify e'lectrify 'pacify

-uous con'tinuous 'sensuous
-itive in'finitive de'finitive
-logy ge'ology bi'ology

6)下列后缀对单词重音位置没有影响:-er; -or; -ary; -ory; -ment; -ey; -ry; -ty; -ble; -ly; -ness; -ful; -less; -ing; -ish等(看到这个“等”字就不爽,不负责任的表现)
