1、Strong Forms&Weak Forms强读和弱读1 一个英文单词如果由多个音节构成，那一个英文单词如果由多个音节构成，那么其中至少有一个音节是重音；如果，音节么其中至少有一个音节是重音；如果，音节足够多的话，那么可能还有次重音以及一个足够多的话，那么可能还有次重音以及一个以上的重音。以上的重音。同样的道理，一个句子由多个单词构成，同样的道理，一个句子由多个单词构成，那么，其中总是有至少一个单词被强读，而那么，其中总是有至少一个单词被强读，而相对来看，其它的单词会被弱读。相对来看，其它的单词会被弱读。2弱读的规则一般是：元音音节弱化成弱读的规则一般是：元音音节弱化成 或或i i。如下几个
2、单词：如下几个单词：at,of,the,to,as,than,and,or,his,a,at,of,the,to,as,than,and,or,his,a,an,but,been,for,her,we,be,shall,was,them,an,but,been,for,her,we,be,shall,was,them,弱读的弱读的频率达到频率达到9090，其中，其中a,an,the,thana,an,the,than极少用强式。极少用强式。查字典会发现这些词都至少有两种读音，如查字典会发现这些词都至少有两种读音，如for:for:重重读时读时f f?:,:,弱读时弱读时 f f；as as的强
3、读形式是的强读形式是/z/z/，弱，弱读形式是读形式是/z/z/。3 大多大多助动词、系动词、介词、助动词、系动词、介词、连词、冠词、代词，连词、冠词、代词，都有两都有两种发音形式：强读式、弱读种发音形式：强读式、弱读式。式。这些单词往往都是单音节单这些单词往往都是单音节单词。词。41.大多数有弱读形式的单词中，元音都变成了大多数有弱读形式的单词中，元音都变成了/；at/t/;as/z/;had /hd/；must /mst/2有少数几个单词的弱读形式变成了有少数几个单词的弱读形式变成了i /；be/i/；been/bin/；me/mi/；the/i/3.有时，一些常用词的弱读形式中省略了一个
4、元音。有时，一些常用词的弱读形式中省略了一个元音。am/m/；has/z/；have/v/；is/z/4.有时，一些常用的弱读形式中省略了一个辅音。有时，一些常用的弱读形式中省略了一个辅音。and /n/；have/v/；would/d/；her/:/5要在连贯说话中应用弱读要在连贯说话中应用弱读形式，不是懂得了道理就形式，不是懂得了道理就能学会的，也不是一朝一能学会的，也不是一朝一夕就能掌握的，需要通过夕就能掌握的，需要通过大量的模仿和练习才能学大量的模仿和练习才能学好。好。6 1)to/t/but/bt/I want to come but I cant.2)and/nd/Hes rich
