What is a consonant cluster? Definition:A consonant cluster is a group （一組的）or sequence of

2、(連續(xù)的) consonants that appear together in a syllable without a vowel between them. In the word chat, the letters c and h appear contiguously but are not a consonant cluster, even though both are separate consonants in other contexts (cat; hat). In this instance, ch is a digraph （二合字母（代表一個(gè)單音的兩個(gè)字母, 如sh

3、eaf中sh ） because the ch sequence represents a single sound in the underlying English sound system. 2、 nasal plosion （鼻腔爆破） ：The release of a plosive by lowering the soft palate so that air escapes through the nose, as at the end of the words Hidden, sadden, sudden, leaden.When /t/ or /d/ is followed

4、 by /n/, (as in button / bVtn/ and garden / ga:dn/), the explosion of the plosive takes place through the nose.Nasal Plosion （鼻腔爆破）Lateral Plosion （舌邊爆破）4、an initial consonant cluster：When two or three or more plosives get together at the beginning of a word. We call it an initial consonant cluster.

5、Great Spring5、missing explosion ： When two plosives meet together within a word. The first one doesnt explode. Just hold the air and leave the time for the sound.Act6、fricatives：fricative consonants are the sounds in the production of which the lungs push air through a narrow opening where it causes

6、 frictions of various kinds. 二、passageAmericans think a great deal about time. They constantly refer to time and the value of keeping busy. From childhood, they learn to value time, and their language reflects this preoccupation with it. Nowhere can this sense of time be seen more clearly than in th

7、e working place. Working Americans are bound to the clock. It is a commonly held belief that one should balance work against a set time, for example an 8 hour day or a 40 hour week. Anything over these time limits is overtime, and the worker should receive more money per hour for work done during ov

8、ertime. Time during nonworking hours is also considered very precious. Whether an American decides on a hectic weekend schedule, when Saturday and Sunday are filled with activities, or on a relaxed weekend, the time will be regarded as valuable. Some Americans feel they have a love / hate relationsh

9、ip with time. They love the comforts that progress has brought through work, but they hate the bondage to the clock and the pressures of a time-oriented society. There is little doubt that many Americans feel they have become servants of the clock. M: What is overtime? F: Anything over an 8 hour day

10、 or a 40 hour week is overtime. M: Why do many Americans feel they have become servants of the clock? F: It is because they live in a time-oriented society. 美國(guó)人對(duì)時(shí)間想的很多，他們不斷提到時(shí)間和遵守時(shí)間的重要性。自孩童時(shí)代起，他們就學(xué)會(huì)珍惜時(shí)間，他們的語(yǔ)言也處處體現(xiàn)對(duì)時(shí)間的專注。小的時(shí)候，他們就學(xué)習(xí)要守時(shí)，按時(shí)做功課，他們就知道犯罪要蹲監(jiān)獄，他們就會(huì)用時(shí)光飛逝來(lái)形容美好的瞬間，就會(huì)用時(shí)日不多來(lái)表達(dá)對(duì)瀕危之人的哀婉。從產(chǎn)生的那天起，美式英

11、語(yǔ)就充滿對(duì)時(shí)間的表達(dá)。沒有哪個(gè)地方能比工作更能體現(xiàn)這種時(shí)間觀念了。美國(guó)的勞動(dòng)者與時(shí)鐘緊緊地連在一起。人們通常相信，一個(gè)人的工作應(yīng)在固定的時(shí)間內(nèi)平均分配，如8小時(shí)的工作日或40小時(shí)的工作周。只要超過這個(gè)時(shí)間界限的就是加班，工人應(yīng)得到加班費(fèi)。人們很珍惜8小時(shí)之外的時(shí)間。周末時(shí)間無(wú)論怎樣安排都被認(rèn)為是寶貴的時(shí)光，無(wú)論多么繁忙或者多么閑散。有些人對(duì)時(shí)間是一種愛恨交加的情結(jié)。一方面他們喜歡通過工作取得進(jìn)步所帶來(lái)的舒適，另一方面他們也憎恨時(shí)間的束縛和時(shí)間就是一切的社會(huì)所帶來(lái)的壓力。難怪許多美國(guó)人覺得自己成了時(shí)間的奴隸。三、Writing Family In the past, American famil

12、ies tended to be quite large. Parents raising five or more children were common. Over the years the size of the family has decreased. One reason for this is an increase in the cost of living. Meanwhile, families are less close than they used to be. More and more American mothers work away from home.

13、 The break up of the family occurs when the parent divorce. A lot of children in the U.S. live part of their young lives with only one parent.Broken families usually result in problems for children and parents alike. Children blame themselves when their parents separate. They grow up feeling unsettled as they are moved back and forth between parents. Single parents often marry other single parents. In this type of family, unrelated children are forced to develop brother or sister relationship. The situations of many America
