| 现在完成时 have/has + 过去分词 — 过去发生但与现在仍有关联的事 | has become · has made · has encouraged |
| 被动语态 be + 过去分词 — 强调发生了什么，而不是谁做的 | are situated · is saved · be transferred |
需要注意的发音
- “sh” 和 “zh” 音: transaction /tɹænˈzækʃən/, shopkeeper /ˈʃɑpkiːpɚ/
- 长单词——注意重音位置: electricity /ɪˌlɛkˈtɹɪsɪti/, ordinary /ˈɔɹdɪnɛɹi/, prohibitive /pɹəˈhɪbɪtɪv/
中文母语者容易读错的音：
- /v/ — 不要读成 /w/，上齿轻触下唇: relative /ˈɹɛl.ə.tɪv/, wherever /(h)wɛɹˈɛvɚ/, prohibitive /pɹəˈhɪbɪtɪv/
- 词尾辅音 — 要读清楚，后面不要加元音: relative /ˈɹɛl.ə.tɪv/, deposit /dɪˈpɑ.zɪt/, encourage /ɪnˈkʌɹ.ɪd͡ʒ/, aspect /ˈæspɛkt/, expense /ɪkˈspɛns/
- /r/ 和 /l/ 的区别: relative /ˈɹɛl.ə.tɪv/, electricity /ɪˌlɛkˈtɹɪsɪti/, salary /ˈsæləɹi/
如何用这段视频练习
- 先完整听一遍视频，不要开口，记下不认识的单词。
- 用正常速度逐句跟读，每句重复到你的节奏与说话人一致为止。
- 录下自己的声音并与原声对比，特别注意 relative, deposit, encourage 这类单词。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
