如何掌握这些发音技巧
让你在口语考试中保6冲7呢?
下面这段来自剑桥雅思官方的口语视频
将告诉你关于发音的各项技巧
发音不准
(Mispronunciation)
First and foremost it is mispronunciation of single phonemes or sounds. Have a look at some of our previous posts for some help on this. Every nationality has different problems due to their first language. Some can’t pronounce TH, some over pronounce S and others miss out any consonant on the end of a word.
Tip: Find out what problems you have and work on them.
单词音节重读
(Word stress)
这听起来很基础但很多考生无法准确掌握单词中哪个音节应该重读。常常因为错误的重读位置导致把名词发音成动词,或者听起来像中文。
This sounds basic but not everyone learns the right stress for every word in class. If you stress the wrong part you may change the word from a noun to a verb or even make it sound like a foreign word…. or just be completely misunderstood!
Tip: Ask a native or a good English speaker to listen to you and correct your word stress. Otherwise, check online or with a paper dictionary.
句子重读
(sentence stress)
句子中的重点词要重读。通常是句子主干的名词和动词。比如我想说“我要买鞋”,单说“买鞋”对方就知道了。
This is where you add stress to the important word(s) in a sentence. We normally stress verbs and nouns because they are the important words. For example, you would understand BOUGHT SHOES even without the other words.

要达到六分以上,就要变换重读的部分来表达或强调不同的意思。
A very good student (6分以上) will know how to change stress to give different meaning, like this:
例如:
I bought some shoes.
=He didn’t borrow, steal or sell them
I bought some shoes.
=Emphasises the speaker and is common where lots of people are speaking.
Tip: Focus on transferring meaning by adding minor and major stress.
语音语调
这方面是国人较弱的环节。那就认个死理:句子末尾降调,问句结尾升调。
Intonation is another pronunciation skill that is often forgotten about. Although it differs across English, it is best to go down at the end of a sentence for a statement but up at the end for a question.
Tip: Practise making longer and more complicated sentences using varied stress
结论
(Conclusion)
别让发音影响了你的口语分数。不仅要让考官听懂,同时要准确的掌握重读和语调。因此英语里常说:“IT’S NOT WHAT YOU SAY, BUT HOW YOU SAY IT”
Don’t let your pronunciation reduce your band score. It’s not enough just to be understood. You need to use stress and intonation to convey meaning/be properly understaood. That’s where the saying IT’S NOT WHAT YOU SAY, BUT HOW YOU SAY IT comes from.
