今日发音练习重点

1. love 注意元音/ʌ/口型不要过大；词末辅音/v/，上齿摩擦下唇内侧；区分/v/和/w/；

2. people till tell 词尾均包含舌侧音。

言之有物

1. 词汇：动词+so 表示动作的程度高

* used at the end of a sentence to mean to a very great degree

Is that why you hate him so?

这就是你如此痛恨他的原因吗？

I do love it so.

我实在是太喜欢它了。

You worry so!

2. 词链儿：till/until now 至今，迄今为止

→ till , til , 'til = until

*Till is generally felt to be more informal than until and is used much less often in writing. At the beginning of a sentence, until is usually used.

until 和 till 意思相同。 till 在英语口语中更常用，不用于正式的书面语中。句首通常用 until。

Everything had gone so well till now!

到目前为止，一切都很顺利！

Until now I have always lived alone.

直到现在，我一直独自生活。

原声例句：Until now, that was the only way it could be identified.

直到现在，这也是唯一可以确认的办法。

原声例句：I'm sorry I haven't visited you until now.

我直到现在才来拜访您。

I've always been very proud to work at GCHQ.

Until now?

Yes. Until now.

我一直以能在政府通讯总部工作为荣。

直到现在也是吗？

是的，直到现在也是。
