聽懂老外聊生活英語對話 購物 01：血拼行動開始啦！

　　Topic 1 血拼行動開始啦!

　　情景導讀

　　Kitty和Helen正在看關(guān)于星期天商場商品打折的海報，她們看中很多正打折處理的衣服和名牌包包等其他商品，并且覺得它們都物超所值。

　　英語情景會話

　　(以下K代表Kitty, H代表Helen)

　　K: Hi. Helen. Look at the post! It says the shopping mall is having a big sale this weekend.

　　H: Really?

　　K: Yes. Many items are 60% off. Let me see. Oh, I like this yellow coat. It only costs about 150 yuan, while the original price is about 400 yuan.

　　H: I need a new pair of socks.

　　K: Here. You can get one free if you buy two.

　　H: That's quite a deal. How about brand name purses?

　　K: Oh, a lot of brand name purses are on clearance sale that day.

　　H: So we can get the most out of our dollar.

　　K: Of course. We can pick up many good things at a low price.

　　H: And it will sell the faulty products at unbelievably low prices. I am afraid the price could hardly cover cost.

　　K: They've made a great profit before. I can't wait.

　　H: Shop 'til you drop! I'll call you then.

　　英語筆記

　　1.60% off 是“打四折”。

　　2.在口語中 let me ?？s讀為 le'me，讀作/lem?/音標。

　　3.此處出現(xiàn)/s/與/j/的同化現(xiàn)象，同化為/?/，讀作/ð?'?el??/音標

　　4.brand name 意為“名牌”。

　　5.此處出現(xiàn)了連讀現(xiàn)象，most out of 讀作/m??sta?t?v/。

　　英語語音語調(diào)

　　輔音與元音的連讀

　　在 So we can get the most out of our dollar 這句中，你聽到的英文不是 /m??st a?t ?v/，那是因為在非正式的口語中，前一個詞的詞尾輔音會與后一個詞的詞首元音發(fā)生連讀，這樣會使說話和朗讀更加自然流暢，most out of 習慣讀作 /m??s ta? t?v/。如：

　　Get out of here.一/ɡe ta? t?v h??/ 出去。

　　Take it easy.一/tei k? ti:zi/ 別緊張。

　　Get all of them.一/ɡe t?:l?v ð?m/ 把他們都叫來。
