三遍法：

第 1 遍：慢速，只求重音位置正確
第 2 遍：正常語速，加上自然節奏
第 3 遍：錄音一次

3–9 分鐘：音段對立（2 句）

句 1（/v/–/w/ 對立）

句 3（數據對比）

句子：Spain achieves forty-six donors per million population annually under presumed consent, not fourteen.

讀法 A（強調 46 這個數字）：

標註：SPAIN achiEVES / FORTY-six DOnors / per MILlion popuLAtion / ANnually / under preSUMED conSENT / not fourteen.

opt-out 需清楚發音
LIVES 句尾下降終止

句 8（結論＋建議）

句子：Given these competing values, the most defensible compromise is a soft opt-out policy with active choice requirements, where everyone must declare their preference during license renewal or registration, because informed choice respects autonomy while maximizing the donor pool.

回饋（90 秒）

回聽今天錄的 8 句，記錄三欄：

欄 1：可理解度阻礙點	欄 2：可修正機制	欄 3：明日最小調整
（例：viable 的 /v/ 聽成 /w/）	（例：做 5 次 /v/–/w/ 極化對比）	（例：明天加入更多唇齒音對比詞）
（例：because 前後沒清楚停頓）	（例：because 前後各加 200 ms）	（例：所有因果連接詞強制獨立語塊）

韻律任務

今天選擇讓以下詞承擔核重音（每句僅一個主核重音）：

句 1：NEED（需求焦點）
句 2：ORgans（器官短缺）
句 3A：FORTY-six / 句 3B：FOURteen
句 4A：OUT / 句 4B：vioLATES
句 5：inTRUsive（對話困難）
句 6：DEATH（死後自主權）
句 7：LIVES（救命目標）
句 8：POOL（捐贈者池）

替換任務

保留句型骨架，替換關鍵詞練習其他議題：

器官捐贈 → 安樂死：

presumed consent → physician-assisted death
opt-out systems → advance directives
bodily autonomy → end-of-life autonomy
donor pool → terminally ill patients

器官捐贈 → 疫苗接種：

organ donation → vaccination
opt-out policy → mandatory immunization
individual autonomy → public health
donation rates → vaccination coverage
