Have you been to any foreign countries? b. 选择疑问句的前半部分，如： Is she an English teach
2、er or Chinese teacher? Are you here for the tickets or books? ,Copyright,6,c. 若干相同类目的词语并列出现时，除最后一项外，如：I want low fat yogurt, tuna salad, chocolate cake and hamburger special.My ideal man must be handsome, generous, dependable and considerate. d. 表示疑问的陈述句，如：You want a cup of coffee? You dont work her
3、e? e. 表现祝贺，同情，或热情时：如Congratulations! Im sorry to hear that. Have a nice weekend. ,Copyright,7,2. 一般疑问句升调的训练要领：要练习好一般疑问句的升调，首先要学好单词的升调。因为一般疑问句的升调明显表现在句子的最后一个单词上，陡直的升音明显地落在最后一个单词的最后一至两个音上。大多数中国学生使用升调时，会从单词的第一个音一直持续升到最后一个音，这样听起来极不自然。需要注意的是：升音并不是从单词的第一个音开始，只有单词的最后一到两个音时，突然很陡地升上去，请参照下面反映升调变化的曲线图，给单词正确升调：

Why are you learning English?我们发现整个句子的语调如下曲线图：,Copyright,11,起调时，特殊疑问句的音调较高，遇到助动词时弱读，并且将音调降下来，然后渐渐提高，一般在句子的最后一个单词重重地降下来。 Which university did you graduate? Why are you learnin
7、g English?,Copyright,12,Reading Skills,Copyright,13,技巧三：如何处理句子中的停顿讲英语或读英语时，尤其是遇到长句时，适当的停顿很重要。停顿并非随心所欲读累了就停，而要根据意群（句子中构成相对独立完整的意思的语言单位）来停。 一般来说，段与段之间的停顿时间最长，其次是句与句之间的停顿，最后才是句子内部意群之间的停顿，例如：主语与分句或从句之间的停顿。句子内部意群之间的停顿，在下列情况下尤其突出：1主句与从句（定语从句、宾语从句等）之间a.

16、四：如何处理助动词的弱读助动词弱读在句子中的应用：学会助动词的弱读，是掌握连读技巧的第一步。任何一种语言，在口语表达时，句子中的单词有重读、弱读这样的变化，句子听上去才生动、自然。英语也不例外。那么，在英语中，哪些单词在句子中需要弱读呢？一般情况下，助动词会明显地弱读。请看下面的例句，揣摩助动词在句中是如何被弱读的： Do you come here a lot? They werent expecting us. Theyre having another argument. We havent been told anything yet.,Copyright,22,2. 助动词弱读时的发
17、音变化：助动词弱读时，其发音与单词音标中的发音会有一些不同，快读时，他们发音会变为：do you /dju/ Im /aim/ werent/wnt/were / wt / theyre / Ill /aiI/ being /bi/ have /hv/ was /w/ theyve /ei/ been /bin/ well /wiI/were /wi/ be /bi/ havent /hvn/,Copyright,23,技巧五：如何处理of的弱读of 的弱读形式：of 在词典中的音标及它的重读形式为：/ f /，而当它出现在句子中时，很少采取strong form, 而会采取其弱读形式，即/
18、f /。,Copyright,24,2. of 与其他单词的连读当of 前面单词的最后一个音为辅音时，该辅音与of的弱读形式的起首元音/构成连读，可以构成一个音节来发音；同样道理，当of后面单词的第一个音为元音时，该元音与of弱读形式结尾的辅音/ v /也构成连读。例如下面的短语：a flightof stairs a pieceof furniture an itemof news a pinchof salt a cartonof milk a barof chocolatea bunchof flowers a bundleof sticks a suiteof rooma cluste

20、情况下，对句中所有实词一视同仁地加以强调。实词包括：名词、动词、形容词、副词、数词、指示代词、疑问代词等；虚词包括：介词、冠词、助动词、连词、人称代词等。如：,Copyright,28,a. In general, we emphasize a word as we stress a syllable by giving it more force, longer duration, and higher pitch. b. I believe the course I have followed with China is the one thats best for America, di
21、sagreeing where we have serious disagreements, pursuing our common interests where I thought it was in the interest of the United States. (Bill Clinton),Copyright,29,2.逻辑重音：逻辑重音又叫对比重音，指讲话人有意将句中的某个成分（一般只有一个，但也有两个的情况）与上下文当中的另一个成分相对比而给予的特殊强调。此时，句中本来该重读的实词被读得快而弱，本来该弱读的虚词被减弱到几乎听不出来的程度。试比较下组7个句子：,Copyrigh

23、er this evening.,Copyright,31,注意：虚词由于逻辑重音而重读时，应使用重读形式（stressed form），如： - Would you like a cup of coffee to wake you up? - A /ei/ cup of coffee? I need two or three. (一杯怎么行？我要喝两三杯。)3. 情感重音是指说话人在处于极为激动的情况下，对某个能表达其情感的词或词组给予超常规的强调。如：We Chinese people are unconquerable.,Copyright,32,Reading Skills,Copyr
24、ight,33,技巧八：如何处理连读我们在听英语时，会发现漂亮的口语听起来流畅，有跳跃感和音乐感。这是由连读带来的效果。连读的规则如下：1.在语速较慢的语流中，意群内的辅音和元音可以统统连起来。如： because of an air raid 应该读作 because of an air raid/biKzvnreid/ when I was an undergraduate应该读作when I was an undergraduate/weniwznndrdueit/,Copyright,34,2.在正常或者较快的语速中，只要句子不太长（大约15个单词以内），其中所有的辅音都可以跟后面的元
25、音连读，意群和意群之间也可以连读。如：Please write it in English and give it to your uncle as soon as possible. 可以读作：Please write it in English and give it to your uncle as soon as possible. /plizrititiniglingivitjrklsunspsbl/,Copyright,35,3. 以字母r或者re结尾的单词在与紧跟其后的词首元音相连时，须加进一个/r/，这个/r/叫“连接/r/”。如there is可以读作/riz/，fair e
26、nough可以读作/frinf/等。此外，还有一种/r/叫“插入/r/”，即以/或/结尾的单词，即使没有字母r或re, 若其后紧跟着非重读元音，连读时中间要插入一个/r/。如：drama and music /drmrnmjuzik/, Russia and China /rrntin/, law and order /lrnd/,Copyright,36,4. 元音和元音之间也可以连读，如词尾的/u/可以与其后面的词首元音相连，中间可以加一个/w/，如blue eye/blui/。这种情况最好是“含糊处理”，即不要把/w/读得太明显。5. 词尾的/ i/跟后面的词首元音相连时，可以在中间加一
27、个/j/，如tea and coffee可以读作/tijnkfi/，又如no fee or tuition可以读作/nufijtjuin/,Copyright,37,连读练习write in English not at all all in all the apple of his eye a girl attendant just a moment check in checked out hold on in spite of that an apple a day far away there are a couple of weeks ago most important of al
