需要注意的發音
說話人用了 3 次縮略和弱讀形式,例如 I'm, isn't, we're。請按聽到的簡短形式來說。
- “sh” 和 “zh” 音: dishwasher /ˈdɪʃˌwɑʃɚ/, shortcut /ˈʃɔːtkʌt/, invention /ɪnˈvɛnʃən/
中文母語者容易讀錯的音:
- /v/ — 不要讀成 /w/,上齒輕觸下唇: convenience /kənˈvinjəns/, invention /ɪnˈvɛnʃən/, vacuum /ˈvæ.kjuːm/
- 詞尾子音 — 要讀清楚,後面不要加母音: frustrate /ˈfɹʌsˌtɹeɪt/, grandparent /ˈɡɹæn(d)pɛəɹənt/, shortcut /ˈʃɔːtkʌt/, confuse /kənˈfjuːz/, convenience /kənˈvinjəns/
- /æ/ — 嘴張大,不要讀成 /e/: grandparent /ˈɡɹæn(d)pɛəɹənt/, vacuum /ˈvæ.kjuːm/

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
