雅思听力中的连读规则
在雅思听力和日常口语中都有大量连读现象,这一规律是英语学习者不可忽视的部分,下面是小编为大家整理的“雅思听力中的连读规则”,希望对您有帮助!
“连读”在英语中叫Word Connections,是来源于法语的外来词,又叫Liaison,读音为[li'eizn]。
连读的意义
连读是语调中非常重要的一个组成要素。而语调是让别人更好听懂、更好理解的重要途径——语调的正确,比发音的准确还要重要。因为语调涉及的内容太多,而且很难用文字来描述,所以在这里只讲连读。
可能有人会认为连读会造成别人的理解困难,他们认为:还是把单词一个挨一个地读清楚更容易听明白。虽然这种说法明显是错误的,但是在这里我也不想浪费文字去反驳,读者们请自行决定是否要阅读或者离开。
一个例子
这里是一个连读的例子。在这个例子里,不仅仅有连读的存在,还包含发音的一些变化,请仔细分辨:
书写英语:They tell me that I’m easier to understand.
口语连读:theytellme thedaimeasier der-undersdand
连读的分类
英语中的连读主要有四种:
1)辅音+元音的连读(Consonant + Vowel)
2)辅音+辅音的连读
3)元音+元音的连读
4)T, D, S 或 Z + Y的连读
1. 辅音+元音的连读
一般来说中国人比较熟悉这种连读——前一个词由辅音结尾,后一个词由元音开头,于是就很自然地连起来了,比如:
My name is&helli p;[my nay•miz]
because I’ve.[b'k'zäiv]
pick up on the American intonation…[pi•kə pan the(y) əmer'kə ninətənashən]
不只是句子中,读字母缩写也可以连读:
LA[eh•Lay]
读数字时也可以连读:
902 5050[nai•no•too fai•vo•fai•vo]
再来几个简单例子:
hold on[hol don]
turn over[tur nover]
tell her I miss her[teller I misser]
因为这种连读一般初中生都会,在这里就不详细介绍了,重头戏在后面,马上开演。
2. 辅音+辅音的连读
这个很难用文字描述,放到最后再讲。
3. 元音+元音的连读
如果前一个词是由元音[u]结尾,下一个词由元音开头,那么,在[u]后面加上一个辅音[w]
如果前一个词是由元音[i]结尾,下一个词由元音开头,那么,在[i]后面加上一个辅音[y]
只说规则似乎有点不好理解,看例子就明白了。
Go away.[Go(w)away]
在电影Big Fish中,巨人Carl说过这句话。因为巨人说话又慢又重,所以那个w很明显。
再来看一个例子:
I also need the other one.[I(y)also need thee(y)other one]
这种连读不能把辅音w或者j发得太重,否则会显得很傻,但是不发这两个辅音的话又会很难念得顺口。
go anywhere[go(w)anywhere]
so honest[so(w)honest]
through our[through(w)our]
you are[you(w)are]
he is[he(y)is]
do I?[do(w)I?]
I asked[I(y)asked]
to open[to(w)open]
she always[she(y)always]
too often[too(w)often]
4. T, D, S 或 Z + Y的连读
