大家都進步了,哈哈,愚公這次讀得好清晰呀。
我總結幾個COMMON ERRORS重點練,可能更有幫助一些。
1. OPTIMISTIC的重音在MI那個音節,第一個音節O是次重音,不能稍微把第一個讀重了,後麵真正的STRESS就不要了。這種情況可能是總容易讓NATIVE SPEAKERS聽不懂的了。
2。好像對一些輕輔音有吞音的現象,見有下劃線的輕輔音。
3.R在音節尾的時候似乎並不是舌尖抵上顎,舌根往下壓,喉嚨打開發出了,也可以重點練。
346. I’ve got high hopes for this experiment.
347. I’m confident we’ll win this game. (這個GAME的A讀大了)
348. Joe’s always an optimist. (JOE有些OFF)
349. You seem pretty optimistic about your chances.
350. Why are you so optimistic after what just happened?
351. Optimism comes from hope.
352. Optimists always say the glass is half full, not half empty.
353. I’m not very optimistic about this new restaurant.
354. The investors are optimistic about our company’s future.
355. Optimism is a healthy outlook on life.
356. I will deal with that if it happens, but until then I’m going to hope for the best.
357. It would be better to just try to calm down.
358. Lots of people believe if you are optimistic, better things will happen to you.
359. In the end, you will always be happier if you have pleasant thoughts and lots of hope.
360. Tomorrow has to be better, because it can’t possibly be worse than today(R可能因為愚公是南方人的原因有點發L的感覺,可是試著撅嘴。後麵的WORSE卷舌沒讀出來,不過英式就這樣了,也不算發音錯誤)

天呀,才發現一個TYPO,我說的第三是L在尾音的時候我寫成R了。。。

Like 'l' in will, until?

Yes. Sorry about that. I feel the l in the end can be emphasized
