所以,我们在听一段文字的时候,除了不认识的单词查词典标记音标之外,在一段文字中还应该标记一下重音等你觉得应该注意的部分。比如,这样一段文字:
Our school is the best in town. The teachers are friendly, and very knowledgeable about English. I've studied at the school for two years and my English is becoming very good. I hope you will visit our school and try an English class. Maybe we can become friends, too!
大家可以试着先读读,然后我们来听一下这段文字的音频:
根据音频来标记一下重音,这段文字就变成了:
Our school is the BEST in town. The teachers are friendly, and VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE about English. I've studied at the school for two years and my English is becoming VERY GOOD. I hope you will visit our school and try an English class. MAYBE we can become FRIENDS!
现在按照标记号的文章跟音频再读一下,有没有感觉到不同呢?
下面再来一段长的:
In this day and age, facts, statistics and other numbers are used to prove everything. Intuition, gut feelings and personal preferences are all out the door. Of course, there are some who are trying to battle this trend. Recently, Malcolm Gladwell wrote Blink, a best-seller which explores the usefulness of making split-second decisions based on intuition rather than careful consideration of all the facts and figures.
In this book, Gladwell argues that initial impressions - or gut-feelings - are quite rational. However, that this "split-second" thinking process moves faster than what we usually associate with thinking. If you are one of these people - and there are many of us - Blink provides "proof" that you're actually quite a rational human being.
这段文字标注出来应该是这样的:

不要嫌麻烦,这样练习多了才能加深印象,英语说出来才会更地道哦。
