四六級口語：如何通過閱讀提高發音？
導讀：四六級口試要開始啦。四級口試有朗讀段落，口試中發音非常重要。這些都要從平時練起。那麼如何利用閱讀練習發音呢？來看看小編今天準備的文章。
If you're working on pronunciation, these tips can help you use reading as a way to practice outside of class, either by yourself or with a couple friends.
如果想提高發音，可以使用閱讀材料在課外練習發音。這種方法適合一個人練習，也適合和朋友一起練。來看看練習要點吧～
• Choose a paragraph and read aloud.
選擇一個段落，大聲朗讀。
• Choose a paragraph and mark each sentence with a sound script (helpful pronunciation markup). This will help you read more naturally, and thus pronounce correctly.
事先給段落中的每句話都標上發音記號（如音標、音調等）。這能使你朗讀時發音自然不卡殼。
• Choose a few sentences from your reading material and highlight content words. Read these sentences focusing on accenting these content words while quickly speaking over the structure words.
選幾句話進行重點練習。先劃出重讀單詞。朗讀時，注意重讀劃出的content words，力求發音清晰，同時對句中的其他虛詞等structure words快速帶讀。
• Once you become comfortable reading a single paragraph aloud, read an entire page by reading a paragraph aloud and then reading one silently.
逐漸適應單個段落朗讀練習後，開始嘗試以這樣的方式來閱讀整篇文章：先朗讀一個段落，然後在默讀下一個段落。
• Choose some nursery rhymes to practice. They will help you with pronunciation through rhythm.
選擇一些易於上口的兒童詩歌進行朗讀練習。兒童詩歌富於韻律，有助於發音練習。
• Read a short story or a few paragraphs to a friend who is also studying English. Compare the differences and discuss what might be the reasons for the differences.
如果你有學伴（其他也在學習英語的朋友），試着給他讀一篇短篇故事或幾個段落。對比這兩種文本之間的不同並試着討論原因。
• Choose a paragraph, short article, or newspaper story with new vocabulary. Use the Babylon dictionary or other online pronunciation resource to help you learn the correct pronunciation of these words.
選擇帶有生詞的（英語）段落、短文或新聞故事作爲朗讀材料。使用Babylon詞典或是其他在線發音詞典，輔助學習這些生詞的正確發音。
• Read a play with some friends. Each friend takes a different part. Start with short scenes. Once you are comfortable, read longer pieces together.
試着和朋友們一起朗讀英文劇本。每個朋友扮演不同角色。先從短劇開始練習。逐漸適應後，開始嘗試朗讀更長的劇。
