聽(tīng)懂老外聊生活英語(yǔ)對(duì)話(huà) 娛樂(lè) 70：走馬觀“畫(huà)”

　　Topic70 走馬觀“畫(huà)”

　　情境導(dǎo)讀

　　Irene和Nina到美術(shù)館看油畫(huà)展，Nina向Irene介紹了關(guān)于油畫(huà)大師Turner的一些情況，以及中國(guó)畫(huà)與油畫(huà)之間的區(qū)別。

　　英語(yǔ)情景會(huì)話(huà)

　　(以下I代表Irene,N代表Nina)

　　I: Hey, look at these paintings. How marvelous!

　　N: Yeah, these are masterpieces of Turner.

　　I: For crying out loud, the colors of this oil painting are so vivid.

　　N: Yes, and Turner is the pioneer of Romanticism, a big cheese in the field of painting.

　　I: I can be really related to his art. But could you tell me more about him?

　　N: With pleasure. The full name of Turner is Joseph Mallord William Turner. He was born on April 23, 1775, and died on December 19, 1851. He was an English Romantic landscape3 painter and print-maker. This is the first time that his paintings come to China.

　　I: Oh, I got it. Did Turner also draw watercolor painting?

　　N: Of course. Look at this one. The uniqueness of it lies in its brilliance of colors.

　　I: Awesome!

　　英語(yǔ)筆記

　　1.for crying out loud 連讀為/?f?:?kra????ga?t?la?d/。

　　2.I can be really related to his art.意為“我對(duì)他的畫(huà)很有感覺(jué)”。

　　英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)音語(yǔ)調(diào)

　　有-ng的連讀

　　你聽(tīng)到的for crying out loud并不讀作/?f?:?kra????a?t?la?d/而是/?f?:?kra????ga?t?la?d/，這是因?yàn)槌霈F(xiàn)了-ng的連讀。在英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)中，如果前一個(gè)單詞的結(jié)尾為-ng，且發(fā)/?/的音，而后面的單詞以元音開(kāi)頭，這兩個(gè)單詞就可以連讀，但要在兩個(gè)單詞之間加上/g/的音。如：

　　I don't think anyone's looking at/'l?k???gæt/ us.

　　我覺(jué)得沒(méi)有人在看我們。

　　I love the painting of /'pe?nt???g?f/ this school.

　　我喜歡這一畫(huà)派的畫(huà)。

　　注意：這個(gè)/g/讀得一定要輕，因?yàn)榧右舻哪康氖菫榱俗x起來(lái)和聽(tīng)起來(lái)更順暢，而不是為了強(qiáng)調(diào)某個(gè)音。
