Unit 2 NeighboursStudy skills

连读连读，是指在发音时，常将词与词之间交界的 有两个音连在一起。连读是英语语调中比较重要 的一个组成要素。它有助于完整意义的表达，并 使整句话具有强烈的粘着感，体现句子的整体性 和英语的自然流畅。 连读现象只出现在意群内部，也就是说相邻的两 词在意义上必须密切相关。意群与意群之间的两 个相邻单词是不连读的。连读所构成的音节一般 都不重读，只需顺其自然地一带而过即可。

2. When the first word ends in –r or –re and the next word begins with a vowel sound, we join them together with a /r/ sound between them.there are for us here is

3.When there are two vowel sounds, we join them as if there were a /j/ or /w/ sound between them.we enjoy go out the other
