（英式英語和美式英語發(fā)音的不同）

PhoneticsBox—DifferencesintheTwoPronunciation英式英語和美式英語在讀音上的差異主要反映在元音字母a,o和輔音字母r的發(fā)音上。1.在ask,can’t,dance,fast,half,path這一類的單詞中，英式英語將字母a讀作/ɑ?/，而美式英語則讀作/?/，所以這些詞在美式英語中分別讀作/?sk/，/k?nt/，/d?ns/，/f?st/，/h?f/，/p?θ/。DifferencesinPronunciationbetweenBritishEnglishandAmericanEnglish

（英式英語和美式英語發(fā)音的不同）2.在box，crop，hot，ironic，polish，spot這一類單詞中，英式英語將字母o讀作[ɑ]，而美式英語則將o讀作近似[a:]音的[a]。所以這些詞在美式英語中分別讀作/baks/，/krap/，/hat/，/a??ran?k/，/?pal??/和/spat/。3.輔音字母r在單詞中是否發(fā)音是英式英語與美式英語的又一明顯差異。在英式英語的r音節(jié)中不含卷舌音/r/，而美式英語的r音節(jié)中含卷舌音/r/，如下列詞在英式英語和美式英語中讀音是不同的：PhoneticsBox—DifferencesintheTwoPronunciation單詞英式英語讀音美式英語讀音car/ka?//ka?r/door/d??//d??r/party/?pa:ti//?parti/board/b??d//b??rd/DifferencesinPronunciationbetweenBritishEnglishandAmericanEnglish

4.在以-ary或-ory結(jié)尾的多音節(jié)詞中，英式英語通常將a或o弱讀，而美式英語不僅不弱讀，還要將a或o所在的音節(jié)加上次重音，例如：DifferencesinPronunciationbetweenBritishEnglishandAmericanEnglish

/?hastl/missile/?m?sa?l//?m?sl/5.在以-ile結(jié)尾的一類單詞中，英式英語將這一尾音節(jié)讀作/a?/，而美式英語則將之弱讀作，例如：6.除此之外，另有一些難以歸類的單詞在英式英語和美式英語中讀音也各有不同，例如：單詞英式英語讀音美式英語讀音either/?a?e?//?i?e?r/leisure/?le??//?li???r/schedule/??edju?l//?sked?u?l/NextpageListentoseveralsentencesandidentifythepronunciationoftheunderlinedwords,writeAforAmericanEnglishandBforBritishEnglish.Task1()1.Thethiefwasputinthepolicecarwithapolicemanoneithersideofhim.()2.Thesmallestdeflectionofthemissilecouldbringdisaster.()3.HewasthenSecretaryofDefense.()4.Thegirlsaremakingupforthedance.()5.Ahotplatewillspoilthepolishonthistable.()6.Ican’thelpit.NextpageTask2Completetheshortpassageaccordingtotheinformationyouhear.Truetotheirreputationas__1__gourmets,theFrenchspendmoretimesleepingandeatingthananyoneelseamongtheworld’swealthynations,accordingtoastudypublishedonMonday.The__2__Frenchpersonsleepsalmostninehourseverynight,morethananhourlongerthantheaverageJapaneseandKorean,whosleeptheleastina_3__of18membersoftheOrganizationforEconomicCooperationandDevelopment.AndwhilemoreandmoreFrenchpeople__4__atfast-foodchainsthesedaysor__5__asandwichattheirdesk,theystillspendmorethantwohoursadayeating.ThatmeanstheirmealsaretwiceaslongasthoseoftheaverageMexican,whodedicatesjustoveranhouradaytofood.NextpageKEY1.B2.B3.B4.A5.B6.A1.leisure-loving2.average3.survey4.grababite5.wolfdownNextpageScriptTruetotheirreputationasleisure-lovinggourmets,theFrenchspendmoretimesleepingandeatingthananyoneelseamongtheworld’swealthynations,accordingtoastudypublishedonMonday.TheaverageFrenchpersonsleepsalmostninehourseverynight,morethananhourlongerthantheaverageJapaneseandKorean,whosleeptheleastinasurveyof18membersoftheOrganizationforEconomicCooperationandDevelopment.AndwhilemoreandmoreFrenchpeoplegrababiteatfast-foodchainsthesedaysorwolfdownasandwichattheirdesk,theystillspendmorethantwohoursadayeating.ThatmeanstheirmealsaretwiceaslongasthoseoftheaverageMexican,whodedicatesjustoveranhouradaytofood.diagnose v.診斷insane adj.發(fā)瘋的basement n.地下室mission v.傳達(dá)；轉(zhuǎn)達(dá)；表達(dá)hostility n.敵意transformv.變成compassionateadj.有愛心的，充滿同情心的WORDSANDEXPRESSIONSSETUPStep1ListentoapassageanddecidewhetherthefollowingstatementsareTrue(T),False(F)orNotGiven(NG).()1.LittleAnnieSullivanwasbornblind.()2.LittleAnniewasoncediagnosedascrazy.()3.Mostpeoplewerekindtothegirlexceptforoneelderlynurse.Task1NextpageKEYNGTFListentothepassageagainandcompletethefollowingsentences..Task21.AnneSullivangrewintoayoungwomanwithadesiretohelpothers.Itwasshewhosawthegreat(1)inHelenKeller.2.AnneSullivanworkedwondersinHelen’slife;butitwasalovingnursewhofirstbelievedinLittleAnnieandlovinglytransformedan(2)childintoa(3)teacher.NextpageKEY1. stuffedwith;
