Chapter 1 The sounds of English [00:02.27]In this unit you will learn to recognize and pronounce English final consonants and consonant clusters , [00:10.28]learn to recognize and pronounce full and educed English vowels , [00:16.16]learn to recognize and pronounce stressed and unstressed syllables and words in Englis [00:24.23]Part 1 [00:25.80]Pre-listening Exercise [00:29.01]The English language uses 20 different vowel sounds ,and 24 different consonant sounds [00:36.77]A lot of the sounds are similar to the sounds in Chinese [00:41.71]A few English sounds,like final consonants,are difficult for Chinese speakers . [00:49.00]Chinese words usually end either in-n,-ng,or a vowel.English words,however,can end with many different consonants . [01:00.60]In fact ,many words end in a consonant cluster (two or more consonants [01:07.08]For example,look at the ending of consonants.It ends with a combination of the sounds /n/,/t/,and /s/. [01:16.58]English final consonants are very important for two reasons . [01:21.47]One reason is that English words with different meanings often begin with the same sounds. [01:29.23]For example,the only sound difference between "you "and "use "is the final sound: [01:36.23]"use "ends in the consonant sound /z/.The only sound difference between "word "and "work"is the final consonant:/d/or /k [01:47.75]Only the final consonant sound tells your listener which word you mean . [01:53.52]Another reason is that final consonants often show whether a noun is singular or plura [01:59.95]or whether a verb is in the past or present tense ,for example "noun"(singular)or "nouns"(plural [02:09.09]"show"(present tense )or "showed "(past tense). [02:14.52]If you don't recognize final consonants when you hear them,you may not be able to understand English speakers [02:22.88]If you don't pronounce final consonants clearly ,English speakers may not be able to understand you .

[06:09.27]Have you ever been unalbe to recognize an English word when you first hear it ,even though you know the word very well when you see it in print? [06:18.52]That's probably because the word contains one or more reduced vowel [06:24.47]Reduced vowels are spoken quickly and quietly ,so they lose their distinctive pronunciation . [06:32.81]There are really only two reduced vowel sounds in English [06:37.20]One sound is the reduced/i/.You can hear it in a word like "im/tate [06:43.73]The other sound is more common .It's usually represented by the sound symbol/2 [06:49.94]It's used for the reduced vowels/a/,/e/,/o/and /u/.It sounds something like the pronunciation of the -0-in "pronunciation [07:00.92]the -a-in the word "syllable "or the -e-in "vowel"-in other words,it's hardly pronounced at al [07:09.77]The vowels,a,e,o,and u are written with different letters of the alphabet ,but they sound almost the same when reduced . [07:18.81]It's more important to be able to hear reduced vowels than to be able to pronounce the [07:24.66](English speakers will understand you even if you don't use reduced vowels [07:29.75]If you don't recognize reduced vowels when you hear them,you may have problems understanding what an English speaker is saying [07:37.72]It's important to practise noticing reduced vowels as you read and listen to the texts in this book .

[12:06.58]This difference in emphasis gives spoken English its characteristic rhythm and melod [12:13.42]For example,many English words contain serveral syllables with full vowel sounds . [12:19.77]One vowel is always emphasized,or stressed ,more than the others ,for example ,"contain ","emphasized ","example [12:29.64]Did you notice in these examples that the stressed vowel can be in different positions in the word [12:36.36]When you first meet a new word in the units that follow ,the vowel to be emphasized will alawys be in holdface type . [12:44.38]Some words with the same spelling change to a different part of speech when different syllables are emphasized [12:51.20]The meeting can also change .For example ,the adjective "present",meaning "here and now [12:58.74]changes to be verb"present",meaning "give",if the stress on the syllable changes [13:05.82]Stressing the wrong vowel in this type of word may confuse your liteners . [13:11.57]English also uses stress to indicate the important words in phrases ,clauses and sentences [13:20.16]A stressed word is spoken more clearly than an unstressed word .Emphasizing important words makes the listener pay attention to these words . [13:30.85]Stressed words are usually nouns ,verbs ,adverbs and other words that contain a lot of information [13:39.03]Words such as "the ","an","to",or"from ",are normally not stressed. [13:46.24]When you speak,stress only the important words [13:50.15]Listeners find it hard to know exactly what you mean if you emphasize unimportant words [13:57.05]When you listen ,pay attention to the stressed words to improve your listening comprehension .
