今日发音练习重点:

1. tree 不要发成“吹”,/tr/ = /tʃ/ +/r/

2. plant 英美发音不同 /plɑːnt $ plænt/

3. undoubtedly 四音节单词,重音在第二音节

言之有物

1. 植树节

Arbor Day

Tree-Planting Day


Arbor Daycelebrates the role of trees in the world around us.

植树节是为了庆祝树木在我们周围的世界中的作用。

2. undoubtedly

近义词: definitely, certainly, indubitably

那是千真万确的


3. if they didn't, life would be much worse for everyone.


虚拟语气:

主句:主语 + would + 动词原形;

谈论现在或将来非真实的或者不大可能发生的情况,在if从句中用过去时(即使表示的意思是现在的或将来的);主句中用would+动词原形。
