（2） “辅音+辅音”连读
“辅音+辅音”型连读叠合:即前面单词尾音辅音于 紧随其后的单词的起始辅音为同一音时，只需读 一次，而不必将这个音读两次。这种情形常发生 在[p]、[b]、[t]、[d]、[k]、[g]等辅音出现的时候。 失去爆破：顾名思义，指爆破音失去爆破。发生 的条件如下：当前面的单词以[p]、[b]、[t]、[d]、 [k]、[g]这六个爆破音中的任何一个结尾，而紧随 其后的单词是以辅音开头的，这时前面单词中的 爆破音失去爆破，即由相关的发音器官做好这个 发音的姿势，稍做停顿后即发后面的爆破音。
(3)元音+元音连读的发音要领(一) :
扁唇元音+元音的连读在两个元音中间要加入轻微 的[j]音。 如：May I ask? 扁唇元音： [ i:] [ i ] [ei] [ai] 练习： see off, stay up, we agree, the end, say it,

圆唇元音+元音的连读在两个元音中间要加入轻 微的[w]音。 如：How old are you?
︶
圆唇元音：[ u: ] [ u ] 练习： Go on, no end, who else saw it? USA
(3)元音+元音连读练习:
（Tell which is which）
I am / you are / she is / go out / too often any other / go on / try it / try again / throw away / go away / no way / how old / no end see off / May I?/ who else Practice on page 123 Group D.
不能连读的情况：
二、虽无逗号分开，但是不属于同一意群 的两个词也不能连读。 Shall we meet at the gate if it is OK? 句中的gate 和 if虽无逗号分开，但是这两 个词不属于同一意群，因此也不应连读。
(1) 辅音结尾+元音开始的连读：
在同一意群（意思上密切相关的一组词）中 的两个词，前者以辅音结尾，后者以元音开 头，这两个音就可以连起来读，成为“连 读”。如： He’s an American writer. ︶ ︶ School is over. China is in Asia. ︶︶ ︶︶︶ What is your name? ︶︶
(3) 元音+元音的连读
相连接的两个词前一个词的词尾和后一个词的 词首都是元音时也可以连读，叫做“元音连 读”。 my only son the early bird ︶ ︶ try again very interesting ︶ ︶ day in and day out ︶ ︶
连读读音要领
不要刻意拼读两个相连的音。像音乐 中的滑音一样，英语里的连读是一种 自然的由一个音向另一个音滑动的过 程，一带而过，中间不能有停顿，前 后两音必须一气呵成。
不能连读的情况：
连读必须在同一意群内进行，分属两个意群 中的词不能连读: 一、被逗号隔开，分属两个意群的两个词不 能连读。例如： Yesterday when he was there, I forgot to speak to him. （逗号已把句中前后两个分句隔开，there 和I分属两个意群，这两个词不能连读。）
Unit 11 Linking
What is linking?
When speakers of English are speaking, they arrange words into groups and join together the stressed and unstressed words within the group. They move smoothly from one word to the next without and sudden stops. So when we listen to their speech, we hear the end of one word flow straight into the beginning of the next. This phenomenon of join words together is called linking.
(4)r-连读
相连接的两个词前一个单词尾部含有字母r， 后一个以元音开始，辅音/r/可与后面的元音连 读。这种连读叫作“r连读”。例如： far away for example ︶ ︶
(4)r-连读
相连的两个单词中，前一个单词以 或 者 为结尾，后面的单词以元音开头。 例如： major in share it

（2）“辅音+辅音”型连读
1)“爆破音+爆破音”型 6个爆破音中的任意2个相临时，前一个爆破音会失去，即由相关的发音 器官做好这个发音的姿势，稍做停顿后即发后面的爆破音。 The girl in the re(d) coat was on a bla(ck) bike jus(t) now. The bi(g) bus from the fa(c) tory is full of people. Wha(t) time does he get up every morning? This is an ol(d) pi(c)ture of a bi(g) car. The ol(d) do(c)tor has a ca(t), too. We’re going to work on a farm nex(t) Tuesday. What would you like, ho(t) tea or bla(ck) coffee? It’s a very col(d) day, but it’s a goo(d) day. You can put i(t) down in the bi(g) garden. I bought a chea(p) book, but it’s a goo(d) book.
