英语口语对话练习：初次相识

　　(以下W代表 Wang Lin, P代表Peter )

　　P: Hi. I don't think we've met before. My name is Peter. I'm very delighted¹ to meet you.

　　W: Nice to meet you, Peter. I'm Wang Lin.

　　P: So, where are you from? I think you are from China.

　　W: Well, originally² I'm from China, but we moved to the United³ States when I was about five years old. I am going to Beijing to meet my grandparents. What about you?

　　P: I was born in France, and we lived in Paris until I was seven. Then, since my father worked for the military⁴, we moved all over the place. And I go to Beijing to visit my friends.

　　W: Oh yeah? What are some of the places you've lived? Did you live in China?

　　P: Yes, we lived in China three years ago. I've heard Beijing has changed a lot.

　　W: Yeah, I can guide you to see the new Beijing.

　　P: Really?

　　英语笔记

　　1.此处出现消音现象，delighted to 读作/d??la?t? t?/。

　　2.going to 表示“打算做某事”时，常会音变为 gonna.

　　3.此处 did you 发生了同化而变音，读作/d??/。

　　4.Twenty-four Seven 这里指“全天候陪同”。

　　英语语音语调

　　did you, did I,did we, did they, did he, did she, did it的读法

　　Did you live in China中的did you读成了/d??/，其实did本身并没有弱读形式，但由于与后面的弱读人称代词相连，在口语较快的语流中就发生了同化而变音。类似的情况还有：

　　Did I/d-a?/（音标中的一表示短暂停止）have that?

　　我有那个东西吗？

　　Did we /d?w?/ start at morning?

　　我们从上午开始的吗？

　　Did they /d?ee?/come?

　　他们来了吗？
