英语语音知识
英语不同于汉语，它是拼音文字，读音和拼写之间有直接的联系。因此，掌握英语语
音基本知识是学好英语的基础。

二、英语语音知识重要概念??
1．?元音
元音发音时声带震动，呼出的气流通过口腔时不受任何阻碍，听起来很清晰、很响亮。
元音分为单元音和双元音两大类，单元音中按发音部位，可分为前元音、中元音和后元音:
(1)前元音:?/?i:?/?/?i?/??/?e?/?/??/?
(2)中元音:/??:?/?/???/?/??/?
/(3)后元音:/??:?/?/???/?/?u:?/?/???/?/?ɑ:?/
按发音时间长短可分为长元音和短元音。
1)长音:/?i:?音节
音节通常由一个元音，或一个元音加上一个或几个辅音构成。英语单词根据它们所含音节的数量，可以分为单音节词如：look /luk/，双音节词如：present/'prez?nt /?和多音节词, 如：favourite /'feiv?rit /（3个音节），traditional /tr?'di∫?nl /?（4个音节）。Present /pri'zent/
4．开音节
1). 绝对开音节: 以一个元音字母结尾的重读音节叫做绝对开音节。例如：
be /bi: / no /n??/ hi/ hai/ go, try cry/krai/
2）相对开音节：元音字母后面有一个辅音字母（r除外），还有一个不发音的字母e，称相对开音节。例如：cake core
name /neim/ bike /baik/ nose/n?uz/ huge /hju: d? / these/ ei:z /不论是绝对开音节还是相对开音节，其元音字母读它们本身的发音即a [ei]， e[i:]，i/y[ai]， o[?u]， u[ju:]。
除了单音节词外，在双音节和多音节词中，如果某个音节符合开音节词的规则且重读，则为重读开音节，如：mis’take/mis'teik/?。
5．闭音节
包含一个元音字母，而以辅音字母结尾（r、w除外）的重读音节，称为闭音节。元音字母在重读闭音节中读它的短音，即a[?]，e[e]，i/y[i]，o[?]，u [?]。例如：
cap/k?p/ desk/desk/ big/big/ bus/b?s / dog/d?g/ stick tick plot ‘plastic, politics strike explode explosive
hospi’tality
同样，在双音节词中，如果某个音节符合闭音节词的规则，则为重读闭音节。例如：
begin /bi'ɡin/。Refer stop
6．成音节
英语中的辅音不响亮，不能构成音节。但是/m/，/n/，/l/，/?/是四个响辅音，它们和某些辅音因素结合，可以构成音节，称为成音节。这种音节往往出现在词尾，不重读。如：
table ['teibl] bottom「'b?tm] cotton['k?tn]
7．单词重音
只有一个音节的词都是重读音节，不标出重读符号。在双音节和多音节中，有一个读得特别响亮的音节，叫做重读音节。重读音节在其前面用重读符号/?/标出。
[?kwest??n] [?swet?(r)] [??ba?t]
[d?u?la?] ['fe?v?r?t] [?ved?t?bl]
[t??mɑ:t??] [d??semb?(r)] [k?m?pju:t?(r)]
在多音节中，有两个重音，一个是主重音，一个是次重音，次重音节词前用/?/?表示，其他部分为非重读音节。例如：
[?ɑ:ft??nu:n] [??nt??n??n?l]
8.失去爆破
爆破音是指发音器官在口腔中形成阻碍,然后气流冲破阻碍而发出的音。当6个爆破音/b/, /t/, /d/, /k/和/g/中的任何两个音素相邻时, 后者发不完全爆破音, 前者则要彻底地进行爆破，称为完全爆破。如:
ke(p)t blac(k)board no(te)book goo(d)bye Se(p)tember sui(t)case si(t) down
He has a ba(d) col(d) today.
You shoul(d) ta(k)e care of the children.
Gla(d) to meet you.
当爆破音后面紧跟其他辅音的前面时, 气流不必冲破阻碍,而只是发音器官在口腔中形成阻碍,并稍做停顿,(也就是说,做好要发出这个爆破音的准备,但不要发出音来)，称为不完全爆破。如:
ma(ke) sure goo(d) job ba(d) luck ol(d) friends jus(t) then
ge(t )through
I don’(t) know.
The thir(d) chair is broken.
Goo(d) morning. /Goo(d) night.
They are very frien(d)ly to us.
You mus(t) pay in advance.
9．意群、停顿
一个句子可以按照意思和结构分为若干小段，每段称为一个意群，人们在说话和朗读的时候，为了使意思表达得更清楚，往往在意群之间稍稍停顿。例如：
I get up /at 7 o’clock / in the morning.片语
Will you please / sing a song?
10. 连读
在同一个意群中，前后相连的两个单词之间，前一个单词末尾的辅音和后一个单词词首的元音有时可连起来读，这种现象称为连读。连读现象是在语言交际中，特别是随着语速的加快而自然产生的，可用符号︶表示。常见的连读情况有：
1) 辅音 + 元音
前一个词的词尾是辅音，后一个词以元音开头，这时两个词可以连读。例如：
It’s a good idea. Come on, Jack! Is it on the desk?
︶︶︶
Look at it. Let me get it. Can you play games with us?
︶︶︶
2)r/re + 元音
前一个词的词尾是.r或re，后一个词以元音开头，这时两个词可以连读，中间增加一个/r/音。例如：
Ask the teacher for it. I need a pair of sports shoes for school.
Here is it.
︶
11.?语调
我们说话时可以随意改变音高，使音调上升或下降。我们还可以像歌唱家那样突然抬高话语的音调。音调的这种上扬或下降叫语调。不同的语调往往代表不同的含义和感情色彩。英语中有两种基本语调：升调和降调。它们的区别在于句子末尾音调的升或降。升调用“ ↗”符号表示；降调用“ ↘”符号表示。
1.读升调的句子
①能用Yes、No回答的一般疑问句。例如
Are you a student ?↗
Can you answer me ?↗
Do you often drive a car to go shopping ?
②有些习惯表达句子。例如
Here you are . ↗
Excuse me . ↗
I beg your pardon . ↗
③表示请求的句子。例如
May I come in ? ↗
Would you tell me a story ?↗
Could you help me ? ↗
When he came back yesterday↗, he found his key lost.
2.读降调的句子
①陈述句。例如
I’m in Class One Grade Two .↘
We are going to have a meeting . ↘
You’re we lcome .↘
②特殊疑问句。例如
What colour is your sweater ? ↘
How old are you ?↘
