Exercise 6-2 : Double Vowel with R CD 3 Track 44 录音下载
Refer to the subsequent lists of sounds and words as you work through each of the directions
that follow them. Repeat each sound, first the vowel and then the [r], and each word in columns 1 to 3. We will read all the way across.
1 ......... 2 ......... 3
[] + [er] [hrd] hard
[e] + [r] [her] here
[ε] + [r] [shεr] share
[o] + [r] [mor] more
[r] +[r] [wrr] were
We will next read column 3 only; try to keep that doubled sound, but let the vowel flow smoothly into the [r]; imagine a double stairstep that cannot be avoided. Don't make them two staccato sounds, though, like [hard]. Instead, flow them smoothly over the double stairstep: Hrrrrd.
Of course, they're not that long; this is an exaggeration and you're going to shorten them up
once you get better at the sound. When you say the first one, hard, to get your jaw open for the
[h], imagine that you are getting ready to bite into an apple: [h]. Then for the er sound, you
would bite into it: [herd], hard.
