(以下s代表Sue,A代表Ann)
S: What are you up to next weekend?
A: Not yet.
S: Why don't you have a picnic with us? This season is great for a picnic.
A: Great, I'd love to. Where do you plan to go?
S: We are going to the lake in the suburbs.
A: Good idea. I love the grass, the sun and the fresh air there. Oh, we can have the picnic by the lake and enjoy the scenery.
S: Yeah. After that, we can go fishing by the lake.
A: We also can chat while lying on the grass in the sun. What do I need to take?
S: I'II bring vegetables, sandwiches, meat and some drinks.
A: Okay. And I will prepare the knife, pot and the pan. I think we can get some firewood by the lake.
S: Great! Don't forget your digitals camera.
A: Yes. We would have a ball there.
英语笔记
1.not 中的/t/ 遇到后面的/j/,连读为/tʃ/,not yet 读作/nɒ tʃet/。
2.good 的尾音/d/与idea 元音/ai/连读,发音为/ɡʊ daɪdɪə/。
3.sandwiches 单词内部出现消音现象,字母"d" 不发音,读作/ˈsænwidʒz/。
英语语音语调
/t/与/j/,的连读
你听到的not yet从/nɒt jet/变成了/nɒ tʃet/,这是因为/t/与/j/发生了辅音与辅音连读、中间不停顿的现象,变成了另外一个辅音/tʃ/,这是口语中辅音与辅音相遇时的一种变音情况。类似的例子还有:
Aren't you supposed to do that?
你不应该那样做吗?
aren't you/ɑ:nt jʊ/ 一/ɑ: ntʃʊ/
口语中,如果/t/与/j/在单词内部相遇,同掸遵循此规律,读作/tʃ/,如:
attitude/ˈætitju:d/一/ˈætitʃu:d/
注:student 例外,st 变音后读作/sd/,不发生上述变化。
