第一次聽到這個理論是Billnet在給900句的第一到第七課反饋時給的磚頭,印象很深刻。
7. The prices of textbooks have gone up。 up 是比gone 重讀的。
下麵是當時billnet的論據:
About“7 The prices of textbooks have gone up.”
Small adverbs like 'up', 'out', 'away', 'off' etc usually do not take stress in sentences unless for emphasis purposes, however, they do in most cases take a stress while they are at the end of a sentence. Take those adverbial phrases for example:
wake them UP
read it OUT
cover him UP
take them AWAY
use them UP
put it ON
has gone UP
