一、單元綜述:
本單元重點是張大嘴巴跟老師一起讀,感受美語。練習我們的臉部肌肉,並體會美語發音的方式和技巧。
二、 美語發音:
1、4個雙元音
美語音標最大的區別在於其中的元音,過去學過的元音是單元音,但美語中所學的是雙元音
1){e}-{ei}
age, game, day
sentence: more haste, less speed.欲速則不達
第一步把每個音發準
第二步加上聲調
練習: it’s pay day today 今天是發工資的日子
2){o}-{ou}結尾停在u
boat, note, so
美語發音的特點:儘量在口腔的後部把音發出來。
sentence: i hope so.
練習:he posed for a group of photo with his old fellows.
註:美語中常常對a和the進行變音,目的是為了強調
eg:
this is the best opportunity we ever have to enter the market.
3) {a}-{ai}
bike, mine, flight
this bike of mine
sentence: all right.
註:all不要捲舌
練習:out of sight, out of mind 眼不見,心不煩
4) how
out, now about
sentence: let’ s get out of here.
it’s kind of tough.
it’s kind of torture to read mathematics everyday.
練習: this is out-and-out power politics. 這是徹頭徹尾的強權政治
2、2個後元音
1){半圓兩點}
發音技巧:儘量往最里吞這個音
not, bottle, hot, job, hospital
sentence: it’s a promise.
練習:little red lorry 紅色小卡車
2){u}
good ,book, should
sentence: she’s looking at a good book.
更多例子: new student attitude due
i am for this position.
3、輔音t的發音
writer, letter, better, city,
發音變化一:濁化
濁化原則1:t處在非重讀音節要濁化
如:writer, letter, better, city,
濁化原則2:t處在重讀音節不能濁化
如:italian, attack, atomic, latino, photographer
濁化對比:
italy, attic(閣樓)
atom(原子), latin, photograph
發音變化二:t在詞組中的發音變化:
練習:pick it up
i got it.
right away
發音變化三:t發音的特殊情況:
當t發的很快,就會變成n的音
internet
interview
interesting
representative
發音變化四:失去爆破
right now, just now
發音變化五:t的音從鼻子裡出來(美音,英音都有的一種特殊情況)
britain, mountain, fountain
4、r的發音
1)r在單詞中的發音
練習: rolly rolled a round roll around the road.
spare, burglar, dirty, porch, more
2)r帶動後面元音的發音
world girl pearl
the girls are the pearls in the world.
原則:只有字母r存在才能捲舌
經常發錯的音:china, america, idea
