Pronunciation Tips

These English pronunciation tips will help you get the most out of your Pronunciation Power program.

1.

For example, “threw” and “through”, although spelled differently, are pronounced the same. Also, identical(相同的) letters or letter clusters(字母組合) in words do not always produce the same sound. For example, the “ough” in “though” and “through” represents a different sound in each word. 2.

★ Imagine a sound in your mind before you say it.

Try to visualize(想象))the positioning of your mouth and face. 3.

★ Listen to and try to imitate the Pronunciation Power instructor.

In addition to listening for specific sounds, pay attention to pauses, the intonation(語(yǔ)調(diào)) of the instructor's voice and patterns of emphasis. 4.

★ The English language has many different dialects, and words can be pronounced differently.

It is important, however, that you pronounce words clearly to ensure effective communication.

★ Finally, the Pronunciation Power program is a tool to help you.

But you must practice what you are learning! Remember that you are teaching your mouth a new way to move. You are building muscles that you do not use in your own language. 5. Use the program to exercise your mouth a little bit each day.

A. Read these words over and over again and try to learn them by heart.

B. This can be just as important as the pronunciation of sounds.

C. Learn to practice what you hear, not what you see.

D. So you should force yourself to do what you really don’t like to do.

E. Do not confuse pronunciation of words with their spelling!

F. It is like going to the gym and exercising your body.

G. Think about how you are going to make the sound.

Tabatha, who lives in Arizona in US, isn’t complaining.She still remembers that September 22, 2012, when her life turned upside down.

Since her cat became a worldwide phenomenon, she was able to quit her job and devote her life to managing her cat’s modeling career.Sounds unbelievable, but it’s true.She says that her only job now is to book Tardar’s photo shoots, commercials(商業(yè)廣告), and other appearances.

What are the other benefits of owning a million-dollar cat?

Apart from not having to work, Tabatha can travel all the time.She has time and money to visit her family more often and enjoy her life.She never could have imagined just how huge her cat would become, but she always knew Tardar was very special.And she is glad to see her cat bringing joy to so many people around the world.

As for the millions of dollars Grumpy has earned, they come from all the products, commercials and a best-selling book.She even has her own movie—Grumpy Cat’s Worst Christmas Ever.

A. How inner beliefs can help

B. Why are habits so important

C. How to develop positive habits

D. Improve your life

E.You can do it

F.Action plan

The single most important factor that contributes to success is what you do every single day.It is as simple as that.Your habits will determine whether you are successful or not.If you have strong and healthy positive habits,it does not matter whether or not you fail today because you are guaranteed to succeed in the long run.

1._________________________________

Because you repeat the same actions and the same behaviors every single day,a single positive action will not change your life,but the same action repeated 1,000 times will have a significant impact on your life.For example,if you go to the gym one time,you won’t see a big difference in your life.However,if you go to the gym 1,000 times over a five year period,you will see a big difference in your body.The same principle applies to finance,health,relationships,work,career,and school.Simple positive actions repeated every single day will have a great impact on your life in the long run.

2._________________________________

There’s nothing easier than developing positive habits.You simply have to do every single day the action you want to make a habit.If you want to develop the habit of running,run almost every day.If you want to develop the habit of eating healthy,eat healthy every day.If you want to develop the habit of reading,read every day.Habits are created by repetition.The more you do an action,the easier it becomes in the long run.

3.__________________________________

If you want to be successful in changing your habits,you should think about changing your inner beliefs about your habits.For example,your old belief was: “I love cigarette because it makes me feel good and relaxed. I need cigarette to be happy and relaxed. ”If you keep this belief,you won’t be able to keep your resolution to stop smoking for very long.Instead,you should adopt this new belief: “I love yoga because it makes me feel good and relaxed. Cigarette is poisonous and destroys my body.Yoga makes me happy.” You should analyze your beliefs and make sure they won’t stop you from changing your habits.The same is true when you try to form positive habits.If you want to start eating healthy food,here are some positive beliefs you should start thinking about: “Healthy food is very good for my health.It gives me a lot of energy and I feel very good. ”

4.___________________________________

It’s now time for you to develop positive habits in your life and avoid your negative habits.Write down 3 positive habits that you would like to develop and 3 negative habits that you would like to get rid of.For each positive habit,write down exactly what actions you’re going to take every single day in order to develop the new habit.For each negative habit,write down exactly what actions you’re not going to take in the next weeks.Here are some positive habits that will lead to success: exercise,healthy food,reading,saving,studying,healthy relationships,hard work,etc. Here are some negative habits to get rid of: gambling,drug and alcohol abuse,overeating,shyness,etc.

5._____________________________________

Everybody can change.All it takes is courage and commitment.Decide right now to improve your life by changing your habits.Take action right now!Don’t be afraid. Yes,you will probably make mistakes along the way.But never forget that success is guaranteed for you if you have positive habits in your life.If you refuse to quit,success will be yours.

Exercise seems to be good for the human brain,with many recent studies suggesting that regular exercise improves memory and thinking skills.But an interesting new study asks whether the apparent cognitive benefits from exercise are real or just a placebo effect — that is,if we think we will be “smarter” after exercise,do our brains respond accordingly?The answer has significant implications for any of us hoping to use exercise to keep our minds sharp throughout our lives.

While many studies suggest that exercise may have cognitive benefits,recently some scientists have begun to question whether the apparently beneficial effects of exercise on thinking might be a placebo effect.So researchers at Florida State University in Tallahassee and the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign decided to focus on expectations,on what people anticipate that exercise will do for thinking.If people’s expectations jibe (吻合) closely with the actual benefits,then at least some of those improvements are probably a result of the placebo effect and not of exercise.

For the new study,which was published last month in PLOS One,the researchers recruited 171 people through an online survey system,they asked half of these volunteers to estimate by how much a stretching and toning regimens (拉伸運(yùn)動(dòng)) performed three times a week might improve various measures of thinking.The other volunteers were asked the same questions,but about a regular walking program.

In actual experiments,stretching and toning program generally have little if any impact on people’s cognitive skills.Walking,on the other hand,seems to substantially improve thinking ability.

But the survey respondents believed the opposite,estimating that the stretching and toning program would be more beneficial for the mind than walking.The estimates of benefits from walking were lower.

These data,while they do not involve any actual exercise,are good news for people who do exercise.“The results from our study suggest that the benefits of aerobic exercise are not a placebo effect,” said Cary Stothart,a graduate student in cognitive psychology at Florida State University,who led the study.

If expectations had been driving the improvements in cognition seen in studies after exercise,Mr.Stothart said,then people should have expected walking to be more beneficial for thinking than stretching.They didn’t,implying that the changes in the brain and thinking after exercise are physiologically genuine.

The findings are strong enough to suggest that exercise really does change the brain and may,in the process,improve thinking,Mr.Stothart said. That conclusion should encourage scientists to look even more closely into how,at a molecular level,exercise remodels the human brain,he said. It also should encourage the rest of us to move,since the benefits are,it seems,not imaginary,even if they are in our head.

1.Which of the following about the placebo effect is TRUE according to the passage?

A. It occurs during exercise.

B. It has cognitive benefits.

C. It is just a mental reaction.

D. It is a physiological response.

2.Why did the researchers at the two universities conduct the research?

A. To discover the placebo effect in the exercise.

B. To prove the previous studies have a big drawback.

C. To test whether exercise can really improve cognition.

D. To encourage more scientists to get involved in the research.

3.What can we know about the research Cary Stothart and his team carried out?

A. They employed 171 people to take part in the actual exercise.

B. The result of the research removed the recent doubt of some scientists.

C. The participants thought walking had a greater impact on thinking ability.

D. Their conclusion drives scientists to do research on the placebo effect.

4.What might be the best title for the passage?

A. Is it necessary for us to take exercise?

B. How should people exercise properly?

C. What makes us smarter during exercise?

D. Does exercise really make us smarter?

Tom was one of the brightest boys in the year, with supportive parents. But when he was 15 he suddenly stopped trying. He left school at 16 with only two scores for secondary school subjects. One of the reasons that made it cool for him not to care was the power of his peer (同齡人) group.

The lack of right male (男性) role models in many of their lives — at home and particularly in the school environment (環(huán)境) — means that their peers are the only people they have to judge themselves against.

They don’t see men succeeding in society so it doesn’t occur to them that they could make something of themselves. Without male teachers as a role model, the effect of peer actions and street culture (文化) is all-powerful. Boys want to be part of a club. However, schools can provide the environment for change, and provide the right role models for them. Teachers need to be trained to stop that but not in front of a child’s peers. You have to do it one to one, because that is when you see the real child.

It’s pointless sending a child home if he or she has done wrong. They see it as a welcome day off to watch television or play computer games. Instead, schools should have a special unit where a child who has done wrong goes for the day and gets advice about his problems — somewhere he can work away from his peers and go home after the other children.

1.Why did Tom give up studying?

A. He disliked his teachers.

B. His parents no longer supported him.

C. It’s cool for boys of his age not to care about studies.

D. There were too many subjects in his secondary school.

2.What seems to have a bad effect on students like Tom?

A. Peer groups. B. A special unit.

C. The student judges. D. The home environment.

3.What should schools do to help the problem schoolboys?

A. Wait for their change patiently.

B. Train leaders of their peer groups.

C. Stop the development of street culture.

D. Give them lessons in a separate area.

4.A teacher’s work is most effective with a schoolboy when he __ .

A. is with the boy alone

B. teaches the boy a lesson

C. sends the boy home as punishment

D. works together with another teacher
