练习材料:The double life of Alfred Bloggs L4-(2)
任务配置:L0+L1
知识笔记:
Every morning, he left home dressed in a smart black suit.
/ˈɛvri/ /ˈmɔːnɪŋ/, /hiː/ /lɛft/ /həʊm/ /drɛst/ /ɪn/ /ə/ /smɑːt/ /blæk/ /sjuːt/.
He then changed into overalls and spent the next eight hours as a dustman.
/hiː/ /ðɛn/ /ʧeɪnʤd/ /ˈɪntuː/ /ˈəʊvərɔːlz/ /ænd/ /spɛnt/ /ðə/ /nɛkst/ /eɪt/ /ˈaʊəz/ /æz/ /ə/ /ˈdʌstmən/.
Before returning home at night, he took a shower and changed back into his suit.
/bɪˈfɔː/ /rɪˈtɜːnɪŋ/ /həʊm/ /æt/ /naɪt/, /hiː/ /tʊk/ /ə/ /ˈʃaʊər/ /ænd/ /ʧeɪnʤd/ /bæk/ /ˈɪntuː/ /hɪz/ /sjuːt/.
Alf did this for over two years and his fellow dustmen kept his secret Alf's wife has never discovered that she married a dustman and she never will, for Alf has just found another job.
Alf /dɪd/ /ðɪs/ /fɔːr/ /ˈəʊvə/ /tuː/ /jɪəz/ /ænd/ /hɪz/ /ˈfɛləʊ/ dustmen /kɛpt/ /hɪz/ /ˈsiːkrɪt/ Alf's /waɪf/ /hæz/ /ˈnɛvə/ /dɪsˈkʌvəd/ /ðæt/ /ʃiː/ /ˈmærɪd/ /ə/ /ˈdʌstmən/ /ænd/ /ʃiː/ /ˈnɛvə/ /wɪl/, /fɔː/ Alf /hæz/ /ʤʌst/ /faʊnd/ /əˈnʌðə/ /ʤɒb/.
He will soon be working in an office.
/hiː/ /wɪl/ /suːn/ /biː/ /ˈwɜːkɪŋ/ /ɪn/ /ən/ /ˈɒfɪs/.
He will be earning only half as much as he used to, but he feels that his rise in status is well worth the loss of money.
/hiː/ /wɪl/ /biː/ /ˈɜːnɪŋ/ /ˈəʊnli/ /hɑːf/ /æz/ /mʌʧ/ /æz/ /hiː/ /juːzd/ /tuː/, /bʌt/ /hiː/ /fiːlz/ /ðæt/ /hɪz/ /raɪz/ /ɪn/ /ˈsteɪtəs/ /ɪz/ /wɛl/ /wɜːθ/ /ðə/ /lɒs/ /ɒv/ /ˈmʌni/.
From now on, he will wear a suit all day and others will call him 'Mr. Bloggs', not 'Alf'.
/frɒm/ /naʊ/ /ɒn/, /hiː/ /wɪl/ /weər/ /ə/ /sjuːt/ /ɔːl/ /deɪ/ /ænd/ /ˈʌðəz/ /wɪl/ /kɔːl/ /hɪm/ 'Mr. Bloggs', /nɒt/ 'Alf'.
1.摩擦音:由发音器官造成的缝隙使气流产生摩擦而发出的声音。如/f/ /s/ /ʃ/ /θ/ /h/ /v/ /z/ /ʒ/ /ð/ /r/,其中清辅音是/f/ /s/ /ʃ/ /θ/ /h/,浊辅音是/v/ /z/ /ʒ/ /ð/ /r/。
3.关于/h/的重读和弱读
如果/h/为词的的开头或结尾,这个是需要发音的。而如果是在句子当中,那么/h/需要弱读,也可以是不发声。如“he left home dressed in a smart black suit”中,“ he”在句子的开头,所以 H 是要发音的,/hi:/;而“kept his secret”中,“his”在句子的中间,H 可以不发音,/hɪz/可以发成/ɪz/。
练习感悟:
练习英语也是锻炼自己做事有规划、有规律的能力。计划假期里,每隔一天写一篇小结,剩下还有四组发音练习,预计八天内完成。然后分元音和辅音两部分进行发音方法的总结,预计四天完成。这样每个音节都练了一遍,接下来就学习连读、吞音等发音技巧,让自己的口语更自然。
