三、美語中的變音現象

1、 連讀

1) 相同輔音的連讀

　bad dog　　注意：不可以把音節給吞掉，只是這個音節不發音
like candy　
ripe pear
some money
The report turned out to be totally false.這份報告完全是一派胡言。

2) 輔音＋元音

　　It’s easy. Where’s our car? Come on in. What time is it now?
Figure it out. for example

中高級口譯中常常出現的連讀詞匯： of all ages
crude oil
a couple of
travel agency
your own
our own
set in motion

3) 元音＋元音

be on time
注：元音ｉ后面再跟一個元音，兩個元音間要加入一個“耶”的音
stay up

flow out
注：元音ｏ后面再跟一個元音，兩個元音間要加入一個“我”的音
grow up
She works day in and day out.

連讀小結：

相同輔音的連讀
輔音＋元音的連讀
元音＋元音的連讀

2、失爆（吞讀）

兩個爆破音連接在一起時出現失爆（吞讀）

什么是爆破音：p, b, k, g, t, d　
六個爆破音任何一個后面緊接著另一個爆破音或摩擦音或鼻音時，前一個爆破音將失去爆破。
lap top
great deal
good time
the Red Cross
a fast train
a big change
currently
probably
say it proudly and loudly
at last

3、縮讀

and---n: Do you know Nancy and David? Tom and Jerry
are you---ya: Ya going to the movie tonight? What ya doing here?

縮讀的原則：

1、 絕對不會是重點音節，不可以重讀
2、 只能出現在非正式場合

do you----dy’a : how dy’a feel now? How dy’a like the movie?
did you---dja: how dja make it?
because—cause: I don’t like her cause she’s mean
could have—could’a : you could’a hurt yourself. (should ,would same)
could not have---couldn’a He couldn’a done that.

I can do a lot of things that other people can not do it.
give me : Gimme that!
going to ---gonna. Want to ---Wanna
got to---gotta: I gotta see him right now.
he---e : Who’s he?
her---er: This is her husband

sure----sher. Sher, I want some bread.
what if----wud if : What if we went to the movie? (what if 句型要掌握）
what are you----wacha doin now?
you----ya: Catch ya later. See you later.

四、單元檢測

The single market has already had an enormous impact. Here in Spain there have been a great number of cross-border mergers and acquisitions where French and German companies have seen opportunities to enter a growing market. And as the barriers have been removed this has become more and more possible.
As far as specific industries have been concerned, well, food and drink, for example, is an industry which you would think was very culturally bound, but we have seen over the last ten years how much eating and drinking habits have changed, and this is very much a function of a single market. French companies have been particularly aggressive in this area.

五步分析法：

1、 劃出段落中的雙元音、后元音
2、 找出這段話中的吞讀和連讀
3、 劃好本段話中的停頓
4、 標注好每段話的升降調
5、 熟讀段落
