Lesson26(1) Wanted: a large biscuit tin
No one can avoid being influenced by advertisements. Much as we may pride ourselves on our good taste, we are no longer free to choose the things we want, for advertising exerts a subtle influence on us. In their efforts to persuade us to buy this or that product, advertisers have made a close study of human nature and have classified all our little weaknesses. Advertisers discovered years ago that all of us love to get something for nothing. An advertisement which begins with the magic word FREE can rarely go wrong. These days, advertisers not only offer free samples but free cars, free houses, and free trips round the world as well. They devise hundreds of competitions which will enable us to win huge sums of money. Radio and television have made it possible for advertisers to capture the attention of millions of people in this way. During a radio programme, a company of biscuit manufacturers once asked listeners to bake biscuits and send them to their factory.

连读第四大技巧 同化的二大规律
1.相互同化
1) /t/+/j/→/t∫/
eg. I got you g ɒ t j u:→g ɒ t∫ u:
2) d + j→dЗ
eg. Did /Would/Could you did/wƱd/kƱd j u:→di/wƱ/kƱ dЗu:
3)s + j → ∫
eg. God bless you blз:s j u:→ blз: ∫ u:
4)z + j → З
eg. How is your boyfriend iz jƱr → i ЗƱr
2.顺向同化
主要用于词尾加s和ed的情况,那么加上去的s和ed到底是发/S/or/Z/,/t/or/d/呢其实是由他前一个音标决定的若前面是清辅音则s或ed亦发成清辅音,若是浊辅音则发为浊辅音。
1)名词的复数 friends frз:ndz
books bƱks
2)第三人称单数 works w∂ ks
3)过去式 looked l Ʊ kt
