D1作业反馈:
- /i:/不是衣,舌头并不接触上颚
- 连读,例如 please speak, believe it, live in
- really:lly的发音后面介于 /i:/ 和/i/
I agree.
police /pə'li:s/
please /pli:z/
pick it up - 读你听过的音
- 不要有“标准音情节”:
- allophone 音位变体,同一个音是有很多种变化的,例如t,
city, wait, water, button, - assimilation 同化:使相邻的两个音发音接近,如 football 中 t 的发音为 p
当你使用一个概念的时候,要知道它是什么,例如什么是吞音
- 非强调的时候,不要重读代词
I can't believe it, 不要重读 I

It was the best vacation ever. 此处ever表强调。

今天第一次上麦,啦啦啦,还是在图书馆,幸亏是在group study space,估计没有什么人留意。得到的反馈就是我念得太平淡了,要更dramatic一点。要有感情,想像真的在和别人对话。
