Exercise 11-10: Practical Application—U.S./Japan Trade Friction 1 CD 4 Track 47
Listen to the following excerpt 2, and compare the two versions.
Forty years after the end of World War II, Japan and the U.S. are again engaged in conflict. Trade frictions 3, which began as minor 4 irritants in an otherwise smooth relationship in the 1960s, have gradually escalated 5 over the years.
The conflict is more dangerous than it appears because its real nature is partially 6 hidden. It masquerades as a banal 7 and sometimes grubby dispute over widgets withthe stakes being whether American or Japanese big business makes more money.
In truth, the issue is strategic and geopolitical in nature. Japan is once again challenging the U.S., only this time the issue is not China or the Pacific, but world industrial and technological 8 leadership and the military and economic powers which have always been its corollaries.

The Letter A
You've seen many examples of illogical spelling by now, and the letter A is a major contributor. A can be:
Note People who speak Chinese frequently pronounce [a], [æ] and [ε] the same. The common denominator of the three sounds is [ε]. When a Chinese speaker says mate, mat, met, it can sound like met, met, met. If this happens to be your case, in order to say common words like make and man correctly, first practice putting them on the stairsteps and drawing them out. Don't be afraid to exaggerate. You can even draw them out with a final unvoiced consonant 9.
