There are many acceptable varieties of English throughout the world. Whichever variety is used in your country, the most important thing is that students’ pronunciation must be good enough for another person to understand what they are trying to say.
In a PPP lesson, teachers naturally include a good model of the pronunciation when they are presenting new vocabulary, grammar or functional language. It is important to start by helping your students recognise sounds before you expect them to produce them.
Spoken British English has 44 sounds, but there are only 26 letters in the alphabet for written English. This sometimes makes English pronunciation and spelling different, so it is not always best to write words on the blackboard at the early stages. Also, some sounds in English do not exist in some other languages. This can make it very difficult for students to recognize these sounds and even more difficult for them to pronounce them correctly. So some students need to do a lot of work on these sounds, listening to them, trying to recognize them and trying to copy them.
If you can understand and pronounce the symbols of the phonetic alphabet, this will help you to pronounce any word in the dictionary. You can teach this phonetic alphabet to your students and this will make teaching pronunciation much easier. However, you can teach pronunciation effectively without knowing the phonetic alphabet. Pronouncing English well is not just about getting the individual sounds right. Students need to know:
* which parts of a word are stressed (spoken louder and longer);
* which parts of a sentence are stressed;
* basic intonation patterns;
* what it means when we change the intonation in a sentence (the music of the language);
* how to link together the sounds within a sentence.
Students need practice in all these areas to improve their pronunciation.
1.The passage is most probably from .
A.a(chǎn) book for English learning B.a(chǎn) book for English teaching
C.a(chǎn) grammar book for English learning D.a(chǎn)n ad for English teaching
2.Following up the passage, the author will probably .
A.emphasize the importance of correct pronunciation
B.say how to teach the phonetic alphabet
C.write about how to teach pronunciation without the phonetic alphabet
D.explain in detail how to practise the five suggestions
3.Which of the following can NOT prove that English pronunciation is difficult?
A.There are more sounds than letters in English.
B.English contains some unique sounds that other languages don’t have.
C.Knowing how to pronounce every word doesn’t mean pronouncing English well.
D.Students’ pronunciation must be good enough.
4.In the author’s opinion, .
A.students should pronounce every word as precisely as native speakers
B.the English phonetic alphabet is a must in teaching pronunciation
C.it is not necessary to pronounce every word correctly
D.pronunciation means more than knowing how to pronounce every single word
5.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A.The English Phonetic Alphabet and Pronunciation
B.Suggestions on Teaching English Pronunciation
C.Other Things to Be Done besides Pronouncing Every Word.
D.Listening Comes First in Teaching Pronunciation
