【今日主题】
1 A letter from home set off an attack of homesickness.
2 A letter from his wife set off an attack of homesickness.
【主题详解】
在这两句话中,有一个词的结构值得我们品味一番。它是:home+sick+ ness,即:homesickness。在收听节目的听众朋友,从这个词的构词来猜猜home+sick+ness的意思。Home是国家的意思,sick是生病的意思,ness是构成一个名词的一个后缀。这个单词的意思是:思乡愁,思乡病,怀乡病。那我们把ness这个后缀去掉,就是homesick是形容词了,意思是:思乡的,想家的;患思乡病的。Let's look at an example sentence: The girl became homesick after a week's stay at her aunt's. 女孩在姑妈家住了一个星期就想家了。
Set off 的发音,很多人会走入误区,认为是实义动词就是重读的,it is dead wrong. 如果一个动词后面跟有一个副词的话,整个短语的意思其根源来自于这个副词。怎么理解呢?Set off 中的set 是启动的意思,而off是离开的意思,所以set off意思是:离开,off 这个词在这个短语中起着关键的表达出此意的作用。因此在发音上副词off才是重读的单词。此外这个词组是一个意群,具备了连读的条件。Set 是以清辅音[t]结尾,而off是以单元音[?]开头,[t] 和 [?] 进行连读,即: [t?], 美语中习惯把清辅音浊化为浊辅音,即把[t]浊化为[d], 这样,整个短语的发音为:[.se'd?v]。好,下面请跟我发音:[.se'd?v] [.se'd?v]。掌握好发音对于我们的听力非常的重要。观众朋友,请听我的发音,您看看您能听出是什么意思吗?[f?e?'zeig?v?'z?:l]。听起来很难听得出,但实际上很简答,它就是介词短语for the sake 1 of us all。看在我们所有人的份上。(备注: 发音的详解请仔细听录音。)( to be continued )今天我们详细地讲解了set off这个短语的发音,若您还想从其意思上有所收获,敬请关注下期的可可英语可可之声晨间7点档ABC英语课堂。I am Juliet. Thank you for your listening this time. See you next time.
