　　英語(yǔ)筆記

　　1.此處and 重讀，表示開(kāi)始下一句話。

　　2.sweaty “出汗的”與sweety “甜點(diǎn)”不要混淆。

　　3.此處語(yǔ)流較快，長(zhǎng)短音發(fā)生變化，連讀為/te? 'k? 't? 'z?/。

　　英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)

　　and的讀法

　　你聽(tīng)到的“And I can't carry a tune in a bucket.”一句中的連詞“and”重讀，表示下一句話的開(kāi)始。在非正式口語(yǔ)中，由于語(yǔ)流較快，and的讀法發(fā)生了變化，具體情況如下：

　　1.一般情況下，and作為連詞，在句中弱讀為/?n/，如：

　　She read slowly and /?n/ carefully.地讀得慢且認(rèn)真。

　　2.在非正式口語(yǔ)中還會(huì)進(jìn)一步弱化為/n/，尤其是在/t/和/d/后，如：

　　We do exercises bright and /bra?tn/ early.

　　我們一大早就鍛煉。

　　He likes bread and /bredn/ milk.

　　他喜歡牛奶和面包。

　　3.and在起承下一句話時(shí)常讀強(qiáng)讀式/ænd/，如：

　　First，you make a plan. And /ænd/ we discuss it.

　　你先制定計(jì)劃。然后我們?cè)儆懻摗?/p>
