35、 person is reading a passage with correct pauses, and the other one is reading the same passage but with incorrect pauses. After listening, make a comparison of the two readings and say which one reads the better and why.What is a sense group?A sense group is a collection of senses organized accordi
36、ngto lexical categoryto conceptual extendedness, orto semantic similarity.Sense GroupThe speaker will help the listener to share the message completely by giving him or her clues to brief units of meaning, each at a time, in order to reach the total meaning of the utterance without confusion. Each b
37、rief unit, discretely spoken, is called a sense group and the clue to understand it is the silence (or pause) that occurs before and after it. The meaning of an utterance will depend on how we identify sense groups with the pauses. Step 2 PresentingYou are right in saying the first person reads the
38、better. When we read a sentence, we often pause here and there. And usually these pauses are made according to the grammatical structure of the sentence. Grammatically, a sentence is made up of several parts and each has its own meaning. These parts can be called sense groups. A sense group can be a
39、 word, an expression, a phrase or a clause. We often use the sign “/” to mark off different sense groups in a sentence.Step 3 Reading with pausesListen to and read to the tape of the text on page 62. Pay attention to the sense groups within the sentences. Now read the text aloud on your own with cor
40、rect pauses or sense groups. Step 4 PracticingMillie will be the host of the charity show. She wants to make sure she speaks clearly and fluently. Lets help her with her practice.
