需要注意的發音
說話人用了 5 次縮略和弱讀形式，例如 don't, I've。請按聽到的簡短形式來說。
- “sh” 和 “zh” 音: emotion /ɪˈməʊ.ʃən/, admission /ədˈmɪʃən/
- 長單詞——注意重音位置: disappointed /ˌdɪsəˈpɔɪnɪd/, disappointment /ˌdɪsəˈpɔɪntmənt/, inconvenience /ɪnkənˈvinjəns/, inherently /ɪnˈhɛɹəntli/, positivity /ˌpɑ.zɪˈtɪv.ɪ.ti/
中文母語者容易讀錯的音：
- /v/ — 不要讀成 /w/，上齒輕觸下唇: actively /ˈæktɪvli/, inconvenience /ɪnkənˈvinjəns/, positivity /ˌpɑ.zɪˈtɪv.ɪ.ti/
- 詞尾子音 — 要讀清楚，後面不要加母音: discomfort /dɪsˈkʌmfɚt/, disappointed /ˌdɪsəˈpɔɪnɪd/, embrace /ɛmˈbɹes/, grief /ɡɹiːf/, disappointment /ˌdɪsəˈpɔɪntmənt/
- /r/ 和 /l/ 的區別: moral /ˈmoɹəl/, inherently /ɪnˈhɛɹəntli/

- 用正常速度逐句跟讀，每句重複到你的節奏與說話人一致為止。
- 錄下自己的聲音並與原聲對比，特別注意 emotion, meaningful, discomfort 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。
