LESSON 3 中国学生的语音难点

The difficulties of Chinese students learning pronunciation

● Part One th 字母组合

存在问题和解决办法

和“th”字母组合相应的一组清浊辅音是[θ]与/e/，它们的共同特点是把舌尖含在上下齿之间。而汉语中几乎没有这样的发音方式，因此在发音习惯上给中国学生带来了难度。

通过熟练练习绕口令来改变发音习惯，培养对字母组合th的发音敏感。不要小看这一句话，真正把它练熟，读起来快速流利不出错误，是有相当难度的。

To change the pronouncing habit by practicing tongue twisters.

\1. There are 3,333 features on that thrush’s throat.

\2. They think that these things are better than those as the thicker things are better than thin

things.

\1. taught thought 5. tent tenth

\2. team theme 6. debt death

\2. a. team I need a team for my school.

\1. day they 5. ladder lather

\2. doze those 6. loading loathing

\3. dough though 7. wordy worthy

\4. dare there 8. sued soothe

*⑵* *Now practice the contrasting sounds in sentence pairs. The first*

*sentence of each pair has the sound* */**d* */**, and the second has the*

*sound* */e/**. Listen and repeat.*

\1. a. day Will day ever come?

b. they Will they ever come?

● Part Two w、v 的区分

存在问题和解决办法

汉语中，尤其是北方话中，[w]与[v]经常混在一起，中国人很少注意这两个音的区别问题(注：标准普通话中，/v/是错误发音)。而英语中，这两个音是截然分开的。一个是半元音，发音时首先双唇收圆，然后可以随后面元音的不同而过渡到不同的口形；一个是摩擦音，发音时上齿接触下唇，气流通过时产生摩擦，无论同什么样的元音组合，首先都能听到明显的摩擦。

*The pronouncing features of /w/ are:*

\1. This sound is always followed by a vowel sound. As you say /w/, your tongue and lips

shape the vowel sound that follows.

\2. Raise the back of your tongue up toward the roof of your mouth (soft palate), but do not

touch it.

\3. Round your lips, push them out, and relax them as you let air flow out through your lips.

\4. Your vocal cords should vibrate.

*The pronouncing features of /v/ are:*

\1. Press the lower lip against the upper teeth allowing the air to force its way out between

them.

\2. When saying /v /, we feel the lower lips vibrate.

这两个音中国学生一般都会发，从技巧上并没有难度。注意它们在口形和发音方式上的区别，并记住单词里发这两个音的字母分别为w和v，在朗读时留意一下即可。

⑴ wet ⑵ wary ⑶ Wow

vet very vow

*Tongue twisters*

\1. Wyvel worried the West would get a wave of Stonewalling.

\2. Will Wall Street’s rewards wane if workers wield power?

A. Now practice the sound in words. Note the phonetic spelling. Listen and repeat each word twice.

\1. wife

\2. wait

\3. week

\4. when

\5. vest

\6. vine

\7. view

\8. van

B. Practice the contrast: /w/ as in “walk” with / v / as in “voice” .

Some students confuse /w/ as in “walk” with /v/ as in “voice”. When you pronounce /v/, touch your upper teeth with the inner part of your lower lip. Do not touch your teeth with your lip when you say /w /.

*⑴* *Listen and repeat each word pair.*

\1. west vest 5. we “v”

\2. wine vine 6. wet vet

\3. worse verse 7. wheel veal

\4. wail veil 8. while vile

*⑵* *The first sentence of each pair has the sound* /w/*. The second sentence has the sound* /v/*. Listen and repeat.*

b. vest I like the vest, don’t you?

\2. a. wine She thinks it’s a nice wine.
