A：Hello, Harry. Where are you off to?
你好，哈里，你到哪兒去？
B：I'm going home to study my English lesson.
我回家去温習英語課。
A：English lesson?
英語課？
B：Yes. I'm trying to learn a little more.I don't always understand what people say, and they don't always understand me.
是的，我想盡量多學一點。我總是聽不懂人家講的。話，別人也聽不懂我講的話。
A：What're you learning about?
你在學習什麼呢？
B：Well. For instance, some words in a sentence are time between two of these stressed words is always about the same. No matter how many words there is what makes English sound jerky. First you go very fast, and then perhaps you slow up.
嗯，例如，在一句話中的有些詞是加重語氣的，其中兩個詞間隔的時間總是幾乎一樣的。不論一句中有多少加重的詞，這就使英語的音調顯得不平穩。開始你説得很快，後來可能慢下來。
A：Hmmmm. I never noticed that. Give me an example.
哦，我倒從來沒有注意到這點。給我舉個例子。
B：Sure, Here's a sentence we memorized for class. “You told me last night not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time.”It takes just as long to say“not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time”as it does to say“you told me last night”
可以。這兒有一句我們在上課時應記住的話：“You told me last night not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time。”在説“not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time”這段話的時間就和説“you told me last night”這句話一樣長。
