0–3 分鐘:校準句

句子:In my view, the main POINT is simple, but the details matter.

標註:In my VIEW / the main POINT is SIMple / but the deTAILS MATter.

要點

  • 功能詞弱讀:in /ɪn/, my /maɪ→mɪ/, the /ðə/, is /ɪz→z/, but /bət/
  • 句尾 MATter 下降終止,明確收束
  • but 前後形成邊界(前段半終止、後段終止)

三遍法

  1. 第 1 遍:慢速,只求重音位置正確

  • 標註:ProFESsionals NEED / to reSkill / every FIVE YEARS NOW / not every fifteen years / as in the PAST.
  • 核重音在 FIVE,末端下降終止

讀法 B(強調縮短的週期):

  • 標註:Professionals need to reskill / every five years now / NOT every FIFTEEN years / as in the past.
  • 核重音轉移到 FIFTEEN,強調變化速度

句 4(學習模式轉變+轉折)
