Because a pause gives the listeners time to think about what was just said or even to predict what might come next, it can be very effective when moving from one topic to another. What I'd like you to do now is watch and listen to a videotape and use the forms I gave you to rate the speaking voices you hear. Then tonight I want you to go home and read a passage into a tape recorder and evaluate your own voice.

## 句子翻译
因为一个停顿给了听众时间去思考关于刚说的话，或者甚至预测下面什么可能会来，当从一个话题转移到另一个时，它能够非常有效。我现在想让你们做的是看和听一个录像带，并且使用我给你们的表格来评价你听到的说话声音。然后今晚我想让你们回家朗读一段（文章）并录音，然后评价你们自己的声音。
## 托福口语跟读难点解析
这段音频中出现了多处失爆现象，如音频第一句what was just said中，what和just都发生了失爆；predict what might come next中predict和和might也发生了失爆。这些语音现象也正是同学们读英语和母语者的差别所在，只有熟悉了这些语音现象，大家才能更好地进行跟读。除此之外，这些句子中有很多地道的表达，通过进行跟读训练，大家还能积累到很多表达方式，这些对于提高口语都有帮助。
## 托福口语跟读知识点梳理
### 词汇及短语
pause n. 停顿
effective adj. 有效的，有作用的
videotape n. 录像带
evaluate v. 评估，评价
###失爆
顾名思义,指爆破音失去爆破。发生的条件如下：当前面的单词以[p][b][t][d][k][g]这六个爆破音中的任何一个结尾，而紧随其后的单词是以辅音开头的，这时前面单词中的爆破音失去爆破。读法是在发爆破音时只阻塞气流却不将之释放，说白了就是只作口型不发音。
