聽力的音變現象和美語發音學習(上)

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
