听力练习中对语音连读的判断技巧

Post by aRNoLD »

体验®商务英语第三册第十单元听力练习10.1部分为例来说明。

听力练习原文
I: Why should companies be ethical or what are the advantages of a company in behaving ethically?
CB: Mm, I think the whole issue of ethics is a very complex one. Companies are made up of people....blah, blah...
该段中CB的回答从音上判断似乎是/hou'lisju:/(对应于句中的the whole issue of),给听音者来来判断上的麻烦。

对此处的分析应着眼于两点:
  • 将听到的发音记录下来,如上面的/hou'lisju:/,并且记录下除此以外该句的其它可确定的单词;
  • 根据语法及上下文进行判断。
利用句子结构和语法,可做如下分析:i think后跟从句(that可省略),则从句必定是完整形态,具有主、谓等部分,那么在此句中,容易听清的是后半句,即从句的谓、表部分;在从句的表语部分中出现了代词one,因此判断前半段必然有one的原词;再根据句意、上下文可知该段对话是在讲一个“问题”、一个“事情”,判断出one所对应的原词应当是issue;最后,由上下文语境分析出/hou'lisju:/这个连读所对应的应当是the whole issue。

liaison / sound juncture
the pronunciation of an otherwise absent consonant sound at the end of the first of two consecutive words the second of which begins with a vowel sound and follows without pause
