We must …when… B: I agree! 11 重读 &弱读 重读指说话时部分单词发音 “音量更大、音调更高、时长更长”，用来突出句子核心信息。英语重读分为 “单词重音” 和 “句子重音”。 ① 单词重音 多音节单词内部有重读音节，重读音节读得响亮清晰，非重读音节轻而短。 例：reduce /rɪˈdjuːs/、reuse /ˌriːˈjuːz/、plastic /ˈplæstɪk/ 同一个单词，重音位置改变，词性会变。 例：record： /ˈrekɔːd/ （n. 唱片）；/rɪˈkɔːd/ （v. 记录） ② 句子重音 内容词重读‌：名词、动词、形容词等承载核心含义的词需重读 例：We should reduce plastic bags. /wiː ʃʊd rɪˈdjuːs ˈplæstɪk bæɡz/ 为了特意突出某个词，原本不重读的虚词也可以重读。 例：I want to protect the earth, not my brother.（重读 I，突出 “是我，不是别人”） 英语中“虚词（功能词）”在句子中非强调位置，不读词典里的强读音，改用发音更轻、更短的弱读形式，大多元音弱化为 /ə/。 常见虚词：冠词、介词、连词、助动词、代词等。 虚词在下面三种情况，读强读形式，不能弱读： 1. 位于句末； 2. 需要对比、特意强调； 3. 单独朗读、回答问题。 例：普通（弱读 to）：I want to (tə) reuse old things. 强调（强读 to /tuː/，对比）：I want to (ˈtuː) reuse old things. 停顿: •介词短语、时间 / 地点状语之后停顿 例：In Japan, /people often bow. In Japan 是地点状语，是一个独立意群，读完短暂停顿，再读主句。 •状语从句与主句之间停顿 例：When we talk with foreigners, /we should notice body language. When we talk with foreigners 是时间状语从句，自成意群，和主句之间 停顿。 •并列连词 and /but/so 前面停顿 例：The gesture looks the same, /but it has different meanings. but 连接两个语义独立的分句，but 前面断开停顿。 •逗号后面短停顿 “/”；句号、感叹号、问号后面长停顿 “//” 例：We wave, /nod and bow. // •长的主语之后停顿 例：The same body language /can mean quite different things. 主语部分是一个意群，读完稍作停顿，再接谓语部分。 Listen and read the following sentences.
