需要注意的发音
说话人用了 10 次缩略和弱读形式，例如 you're, I'm, don't。请按听到的简短形式来说。
- “sh” 和 “zh” 音: impression /ɪmˈpɹɛʃn̩/, nutshell /ˈnʌt.ʃɛl/
- 长单词——注意重音位置: molecular /məˈlɛk.jə.ləɹ/, communicate /kəˈmjuːnɪkeɪt/, unnecessary /ʌnˈnɛs.əˌsɛɹ.i/, statistical /stəˈtɪs.tɪ.kəl/, atmospheric /ˌætməsˈfɛɹɪk/

- 词尾辅音 — 要读清楚，后面不要加元音: communicate /kəˈmjuːnɪkeɪt/, topic /ˈtɑpɪk/, sand /sænd/, impress /ɪmˈpɹɛs/, prompt /pɹɑmpt/
- /r/ 和 /l/ 的区别: molecular /məˈlɛk.jə.ləɹ/, reveal /ɹɪˈviːl/, principle /ˈpɹɪn.sɪ.pəl/, strictly /ˈstɹɪktli/, ramble /ˈɹæmbəl/
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。
- 先用 0.75 倍速逐句跟读，熟练之后再回到正常速度。
- 录下自己的声音并与原声对比，特别注意 steer, soil, interviewer 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。
