14、llion。句子重读的注意事项通常情况下,英语句子中需要重读的词包括:名词(包括专有名词)、动词、形容词、大多数副词、数词、动词-ing形式、过去分词、双音节介词、特殊疑问词、指示代词等,而不需要重读的词主要是冠词、代词、be动词、单音节介词、连词、助词、关系代词和关系副词等。不过,在某些情况下,为了表达特定的意义,一些通常无须重读的词也会出现重读。节奏英语语言的节奏以重音为基础,通过重读和非重读音节(stressed and unstressed syllables)有规律地交替出现形成,各个重读音节之间的时长大体相等。因此,想要读出英文的节奏,就要在朗读时将每两个重读音节之间所有部分的时长保持大体一致,而不是每个英文单词的时长一样。
