我之所以反复读这篇文章,最初是因为我想改善前元音的发音问题.这篇文章中前元音单词比较多.h(a)ppy, p(e)bble, (i)nto, s(e)t, (e)ver, s(ai)d, b(e)ing, (i)s, th(e)re, ex(a)ct,……….
一个多月前,在我跟读100多遍后,我在这里贴过这篇文章的跟读录音.再次感谢billnet等指点.意识到drop发音不对,以及KAY,KEY;SEE,SAY;FEEL,FAIL;HE,HAY等发音不能很好区分。又读了100多遍。
在这个论坛里有人问L发音问题,看了一些录象资料,我意识到,当L处于词中和词尾时,我的L发音也不正确,一直是用变形的O代替半元音L。继续矫正跟读。
又看到一个资料,发现HAPPY中P发音应该是B, 又矫正很多遍。
到目前为止,我跟读这篇文章超了400多遍.现在再次贴出来,希望得到一些改进口音方面的建议.
对于我来说,在别人明确指出确切发音问题以前,自己很难发现自己的发音问题.这也是我在这里发帖的原因. 我知道,这里有很多高手,希望得到一些指教。有些人即使和我一样,发音中也有问题,但由于生活学习际遇不同,对某一类发音也会有独到的体会和敏感。希望大家能够互相帮助,不断进步。
知道自己嗓音不好,尝试用软件进行了一些后处理,并加入了背景音乐。希望不要太污染了大家的耳朵。
NTOTL—Never Too Old To Learn
The Happy Door
Happiness is like a pebble dropped into a pool to set in motion an ever-widening circle of ripples. As Stevenson has said, being happy is a duty.
There is no exact definition of the word happiness. Happy people are happy for all sorts of reasons. The key is not wealth or physical well-being, since we find beggars, invalids and so-called failures, who are extremely happy.
Being happy is a sort of unexpected dividend. But staying happy is an accomplishment, a triumph of soul and character. It is not selfish to strive for it. It is, indeed, a duty to ourselves and others.
Being unhappy is like an infectious disease. It causes people to shrink away from the sufferer. He soon finds himself alone, miserable and embittered. There is, however, a cure so simple as to seem, at first glance, ridiculous; if you don’t feel happy, pretend to be!
It works. Before long you will find that instead of repelling people, you attract them. You discover how deeply rewarding it is to be the center of wider and wider circles of good will.
Then the make-believe becomes a reality. You possess the secret of peace of mind, and can forget yourself in being of service to others.
Being happy, once it is realized as a duty and established as a habit, opens doors into unimaginable gardens thronged with grateful friends.

发DARK L,我的体会是舌头顶住上牙,发O的音. 字母L是先发前元音E,在接DARK L.

感觉你的很多发音有点不自然,有一点弄巧成拙的感觉。
