　　英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)

　　關(guān)鍵詞重讀

　　一般情況下，直接影響句意的關(guān)鍵詞要重讀，包括名詞、實(shí)義動(dòng)詞、形容詞、副詞、某些代詞、感嘆詞等。如：

　　Books are important for us.名詞books重讀

　　He hurl himself.動(dòng)詞hurt重讀

　　It's amazing!形容詞amazing重讀

　　The car is mine.代詞mine重讀

　　同時(shí)，要注意一些不需要重讀的情況，如主語(yǔ)位于實(shí)義動(dòng)詞后時(shí)，動(dòng)詞不重讀.too、much、very等程度副詞不重讀l用于指代前面已出現(xiàn)名詞的代詞不重讀等。
