J: Sara,I am sorry, but I think it's time to move on.
S: Are you serious?

英语笔记
1.move on 可连读作/mʊ vɒn/。
2.much 弱读作/mətʃ/。
3./l/与/ɪn/连读因此fall in 连读为/fɒ lɪn/。
4.be suitable for 是“对……适合”的意思。
英语语音语调
辅音与/ɪn/的连读
对话中的fall in容易误听为falling,其实是辅音/l/与/ɪn/连读成了/lɪn/,fall in就读作/fɒ lɪn/,与/ˈfɒ lɪŋ/相似。再如:
rush in读作/rʌ ʃɪn/,“冲入”,不要误认为是rushing。
believe in读作/bɪ'lɪ vɪn/,“相信”,不要误认为是believing。
get in读作/ɡe tɪn/,“进入”,不要误认为是getting。
immerse in读作/ɪ'mɜ:sɪn/,“沉浸在”,不要误认为是immersing。
那么,到底是动词后面加的介词in,还是动名词形式的-ing呢?这要根据具体语境来判断。
