  • /r/ 和 /l/ 的區別: formal /ˈfɔɹməl/, illustrate /ˈɪl.əˌstɹeɪt/, clarification /ˌklæɹɪfɪˈkeɪʃən/, complimentary /ˌkɑmplɪˈmɛnt(ə)ɹi/, formulaic /ˌfɔɹmjəˈleɪ.ɪk/

  3. 錄下自己的聲音並與原聲對比，特別注意 employer, resume, paragraph 這類單詞。

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。
