地道英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)秘密：比單詞量還重要的語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)！簡(jiǎn)直太好用！

比起漢語(yǔ)的字正腔圓，英語(yǔ)的語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)更富有多樣性。如果把漢語(yǔ)比作是中庸的士人，英語(yǔ)更像是穿著牛仔T恤的活潑青年。

漢語(yǔ)講究喜怒不形于色，僅從語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)判斷，你是絕對(duì)不知道對(duì)方要罵你還是夸你。相比之下，英語(yǔ)就簡(jiǎn)單明了多了，愛(ài)憎分明，快意恩仇。

所以，會(huì)說(shuō)姐經(jīng)常和學(xué)英語(yǔ)的朋友說(shuō)：詞匯量不夠，肢體語(yǔ)言來(lái)湊;肢體語(yǔ)言不夠，語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)來(lái)湊。

今天，我們一起把英語(yǔ)的語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)做一次360°無(wú)死角大盤點(diǎn)，看看升調(diào)、降調(diào)、平調(diào)里的小秘密……
