Pronunciation Tips

These English pronunciation tips will help you get the most out of your Pronunciation Power program.

【1】

For example, “threw” and “through”, although spelled differently, are pronounced the same. Also, identical(相同的) letters or letter clusters(字母組合) in words do not always produce the same sound. For example, the “ough” in “though” and “through” represents a different sound in each word. 2

Imagine a sound in your mind before you say it.

Try to visualize(想象))the positioning of your mouth and face. 3

Listen to and try to imitate the Pronunciation Power instructor.

In addition to listening for specific sounds, pay attention to pauses, the intonation(語調(diào)) of the instructor's voice and patterns of emphasis. 4

The English language has many different dialects, and words can be pronounced differently.

It is important, however, that you pronounce words clearly to ensure effective communication.

Finally, the Pronunciation Power program is a tool to help you.

But you must practice what you are learning! Remember that you are teaching your mouth a new way to move. You are building muscles that you do not use in your own language. 5 Use the program to exercise your mouth a little bit each day.

A. Read these words over and over again and try to learn them by heart.

B. This can be just as important as the pronunciation of sounds.

C. Learn to practice what you hear, not what you see.

D. So you should force yourself to do what you really don’t like to do.

E. Do not confuse pronunciation of words with their spelling!

F. It is like going to the gym and exercising your body.

G. Think about how you are going to make the sound.

【答案】

【1】E

【2】C

【3】G

【4】B

【5】F

【解析】

試題分析:本文主要講述的是我們在使用Pronunciation Power program練習發(fā)音的時候所要注意的內(nèi)容。

【1】E 根據(jù)本段第一句For example, “threw” and “through”, although spelled differently, are pronounced the same.可知英語中有些詞的發(fā)音是一樣的,但是拼寫是完全不一樣的、也就是說不要把單詞的拼寫和發(fā)音混淆在一起。故E項為該段的中心思想。

【2】C 根據(jù)本段第二句Also, identical(相同的) letters or letter clusters(字母組合) in words do not always produce the same sound.可知相同的字母或字母組合發(fā)音并不是完全一樣的。那么要想?yún)^(qū)別它們,主要依靠發(fā)音而不是形狀。要通過多加練習才可以更好地辨別它們之間的區(qū)別。故C正確。

【3】G 根據(jù)前一句Try to visualize(想象))the positioning of your mouth and face.努力想象一下發(fā)音的嘴型位置。也就是說要多思考這個發(fā)音是如何發(fā)出來的,故G項Think about how you are going to make the sound.與前一句相一致。

【4】B 根據(jù)前一句In addition to listening for specific sounds, pay attention to pauses, the intonation(語調(diào)) of the instructor's voice and patterns of emphasis.除了要聽一下特殊的音之外,還要注意老師的停頓和語調(diào),這些和單詞的發(fā)音一樣重要。因為英語中的語音和語調(diào)是同樣重要的。故B正確。

【5】F 本段第一句But you must practice what you are learning!你一定要練習你所學到的語音。再根據(jù)橫線前句You are building muscles that you do not use in your own language.你要鍛煉你在講自己的語言時用不到的肌肉。這就和鍛煉身體一樣。故F項內(nèi)容與上下文一致。

But if you can draw a horse that looks like a horse instead of a big dog, that is a skill.

Then ask yourself this question: in the following three areas skills with people, skills with information and skills with things which are your best skills?

After examining your skills, the next step is research. To find out as many different kinds of jobs as possible, go to the library and read books, magazines and newspapers. 4

Finally, trust your own ideas and your own thinking! 5

People are not so honest that they once were. The temptation to steal is greater than ever before ---- especial in large shops. A detective recently watched a well-dressed woman who always went into a large store on Monday mornings. One Monday, there was fewer people in the shop than usual when the woman came in, but it was easier for the detective to watch her. The woman first bought for a few small articles. After a little time, she chose one of the most expensive dressed in the shop and hand it to an assistant who wrapped it up for him as quickly as possible. Then the woman simply took the parcel and walked out to the shop with paying. When she was arrested, the detective found that the shop assistant was her daughter.

【題目】下面文章中有5個段落需要添加小標題(第1—5題)。請從以下選項(A、B、C、D、E、F)中選出符合各段意思的小標題。選項中有多余選項。

A.The engine in your body.

B.The location, size and heartbeat of a heart.

C.What happens when the heart beats?

D.How does your heart work?

E. How do we know about the heart?

F.What can a doctor tell by feeling your pulse?

【1】_______ Your heart is sometimes called the engine or the motor in your body and sometimes called the pump.It works away, both day and night.First it pumps out some blood, rests for a few seconds, and then it pumps some more.In a normal day, the heart pumps about 2,500 gallons of blood from the auricles and ventricles.

【2】________ When your heart beats, it is pumping blood to all parts of your body.If you could examine your heart closely, you would see that it is really two pumps placed side by side, and working at the same time.Each pump has two parts, the upper part called the auricle(心房), and the lower part called the ventricle(心室).The auricles receive the blood as it comes into them after it has been pumped through the body.The ventricles pump the blood out.The right one pumps the blood to the lungs and the left one pumps the blood to all other parts of the body.At the top and bottom openings of each ventricle are valves(閥門) which make the blood go in only one direction.

【3】______ Your heart is located in your chest, a little to your left.This heart of yours, which is about the size of your two fists held together, beats about 90 times a minute.A grown person’s heart beats about 60 to 80times a minute.The heartbeat is not just the same in all persons, and it is not the same in any one person at all times.

【4】_______ By using a stethoscope to listen to the heart, the doctor can tell whether your heart is beating evenly and whether the valves are closing tightly.The stethoscope makes these sounds so clear that the doctor can hear them easily.The stethoscope has an earpiece that he places on your chest and tubes that he places in his ears.The earpiece carries the sound of your heart’s beating along the tubes to the doctor’s ears, and it makes the sound seem much louder than it really is.The doctor could listen to your heartbeat by pulling his ears against your chest.

【5】_______ An easy experiment can help you understand what happens when the heart beats.You can do this experiment with a hollow rubber ball.Make a small hole in it, and fill the ball with water through the hole.When you squeeze the ball, you will notice how the water comes out in a spurt each time you squeeze.After each spurt the ball comes back to its round shape again.Something like this happens when your heart beats.The muscles in your heart grow smaller, or contract, and squeeze the blood out of the heart.Each time this happens, we say your heart is beating.Perhaps you have noticed that the doctor places his finger on the pulse in your wrist when you are ill.By doing this he can tell how fast your heart is beating.

【題目】閱讀理解。

Encouragement and praise can come in many forms,and some ways are better for children’s development than others.Researchers at the University of Chicago who studied mother-child interactions over the course found that the type of praise children receive affects their attitudes toward challenges later in life.Specifically,praise coming with feedback about their behavior that kids made helped them to deal better with difficult experiences five years later,compared with compliments that focused more on the child himself,like “You’re a good boy.”

“This is something we suspected would be the case based on a lot of experimental research,and it’s exciting to see it plays out in the real world,” says Elizabeth,a professor of psychology at Temple University,who led the study.“Praising the efforts,actions and work of the kid is going to be more beneficial in their long-term persistence and work hard in the future.”

Such “process praise” includes comments such as “You worked really hard” or “You’re doing a great job,” which emphasize the child’s actions.“Person praise” includes comments like “You’re so smart” or “You’re so good,” which focus on a child’s inherent qualities.These distinctions aren’t new in the field of psychology,but exactly how they affect children’s development over the years hasn’t been clear.

As part of the study,researchers visited the homes of more than 50 toddlers between the age of 1 and 3 years old,and filmed their daily interactions with their parents during multiple 90-minute sessions.Five years later,the researchers followed up with the families,using questionnaires to measure the children’s attitudes toward challenges and problem solving.The children who grew up with more process praise were more open to challenge,and could identify more ways of overcoming difficult problems.While person praise didn’t seem to have any negative effect on the children,process praise teaches children that their talents and abilities can be developed and improved,while person praise sends the message that their abilities are fixed and therefore not easily changed.

【1】Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A.Praising inspires kids to form good personal quality.

B.Praising kids is tested to be effective in the long run.

C.The process of praising kids experiment is suspected.

D.The praising experiment is carried out in real situation.

【2】The underlined word “distinctions” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .

A.condition B.differences

C.exception D.appearance

【3】From the last paragraph we can learn that .

A.kids should not be praised too frequently

B.different kids should be praised differently

C.process praise is less effective as we expected

D.kids with process praise tend to be more creative

【4】What is the main purpose of the passage?

A.To introduce a better way to praise kids.

B.To compare two different praising ways.

C.To predict the result of process praising.

D.To report the way of praising experiment.

Miss Elizabeth at my last school taught me an interesting system for list new vocabulary. She calls it Suitcase, Fridge and Dustbin. At the end of each day, he told us to look at the new word on the board. She told us to decide how usefully they were to us personally. The useful words are put in a list called a Suitcase. If we think they might be useful to the future, we put them in the list of Fridge. Dustbin is for words what we’ll never use!
