雙語(yǔ)閱讀：如何改善你的英語(yǔ)發(fā)音水平

The first step in learning correct English pronunciation is to focus on individual sounds. These sounds are named "phonemes". Every word is made up of a number of "phonemes" or sounds. A good way to isolate these individual sounds is to use minimal pair exercises. To take your pronunciation to the next level, focus on stress on intonation. The following resources will help you improve your pronunciation by learning the "music" of English.

學(xué)習(xí)正確的英語(yǔ)發(fā)音的第一步是注意每一個(gè)單獨(dú)的發(fā)音。這些單獨(dú)的發(fā)音其實(shí)成為音素。每個(gè)單詞都由一個(gè)或者幾個(gè)音素構(gòu)成的。找出這些音素的方法就是先練習(xí)一些短小的單詞，這些單詞往往音素比較少，很容易找出每個(gè)音素。然后再把你的發(fā)音帶到下一個(gè)層次，重點(diǎn)開始放在語(yǔ)調(diào)上。我們可以通過(guò)一些方法來(lái)改善自己音準(zhǔn)水平。

Practice with Pronunciation Using English is a stress-timed language and, as such, good pronunciation depends a lot on the ability to accent the correct words and successfully use intonation to make sure you are understood. Simply put, spoken English stress the principal elements in a sentence - content words - and quickly glides over the less important words - function words. Nouns, principal verbs, adjectives and adverbs are all content words. Pronouns, articles, auxiliary verbs, prepositions, conjunctions are function words and are pronounced quickly moving towards the more important words.練習(xí)英語(yǔ)發(fā)音其實(shí)就是“有限重讀”，所以，能否發(fā)好音很大程度上取決于正確拼讀單詞和正確使用重音以確保你能理解。簡(jiǎn)單地說(shuō)，英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)句子中重點(diǎn)在于內(nèi)容詞，在講述的時(shí)候快速地從那些不重要的詞語(yǔ)上跳過(guò)。名詞、動(dòng)詞、形容詞和副詞都是內(nèi)容詞。代詞、冠詞、助動(dòng)詞、介詞、連詞都是功能詞，在表述口語(yǔ)的時(shí)候就要迅速地跳過(guò)然后向重要的詞匯靠攏。

How to Improve Your Pronunciation如何改善你的發(fā)音

This "how to" focuses on improving your pronunciation through the recognition of the "time-stressed" character of English.

I am continually surprised to see how much my students' pronunciation improves when they focus reading sentences focusing on only pronouncing the 'stressed' words well!

這個(gè)“如何”專注于提高你的英語(yǔ)發(fā)音，其實(shí)就貫穿“有效重讀”這個(gè)認(rèn)知里。

我經(jīng)常會(huì)很驚訝地發(fā)現(xiàn)，當(dāng)我的學(xué)生把注意力集中在“有效重讀”的單詞上面，他們的發(fā)音水平會(huì)得到很大的提升。

Some Examples一些例子

Take a look at the following sentences and then try to find out the examples showing the difference between the sentences spoken:

看一看下面的句子，然后試著找出所列出的句子之間在朗讀上的差別

1.??? In a plain manner, focusing on the 'correct' pronunciation of each word - much as some students do when trying to pronounce well.

2.??? In the natural, manner with content words being stressed and function words receiving little stress.

1、一種簡(jiǎn)單的方式，專注于每個(gè)單詞的“正確”發(fā)音——就像有些學(xué)生在努力發(fā)音時(shí)所做的那樣。

2、在自然的方式中，對(duì)內(nèi)容詞重點(diǎn)發(fā)音和對(duì)功能詞弱化發(fā)音

Example Sentences

????? Alice was writing a letter when her friend came through the door and told her she was going to leave on holiday.

????? I had studying for about an hour when the telephone rang.

????? Fast automobiles make dangerous friends.
