Linking sounds
We often link sounds together when we speak English. There are four
different ways of linking sounds together.
1 We usually link a consonant sound with a vowel sound.
an apple stand up in an hour
2 When the first word ends in -r or -re and the next word begins with a
vowel sound, we join them together with a /r/ sound between them.
there are for us here is
3 When there are two vowel sounds, we join them as if there were a /j/ or
/w/ sound between them.
we enjoy go out the other
4 When two consonant sounds of two words meet, we sometimes do not
need to pronounce the first consonant sound.

Listen carefully. See how you can link the following words together. Then
practise saying them.

Stress in sentences
When we speak English, we often stress important words, e.g. nouns, main
verbs, adjectives and adverbs. We do not usually stress less important words,
e.g. articles, prepositions, pronouns or conjunctions.
My aunt is a teacher in a middle school.
Mr Lin is going to visit the USA next month.
However, the words are not equally important. We can stress some of the
words to show that they are more important information.
Mr Li owns a four-bedroom flat. (It is Mr Li that owns a four-bedroom flat.)
Mr Li owns a four-bedroom flat. (He does not rent the flat from others.)
Mr Li owns a four-bedroom flat. (It is a four-bedroom flat, not another kind of flat.)
Mr Li owns a four-bedroom flat. (It is a flat, not a house.)
Listen to the following conversation. Pay attention to the stressed words.
Millie: Where are you going, Daniel?
Daniel: I’m going to the bookshop.
Millie: What are you going to buy?
Daniel: My pen is broken. I want to buy a new one.
Millie: I need some exercise books. Can I go with you?
Daniel: Sure.
Read the sentences below. Stress the different words according to the meanings
you want to express.
1 I want to buy a CD at the bookshop.
a I am talking about what I want to do, not what I do not want to do.
b I am talking about a bookshop, not another kind of shop.
c I am talking about a CD, not something else.
2 Daniel sometimes watches TV on Sunday morning.

The students are in front of Sunshine Zoo. A tour guide is showing them a
map and telling them how to get around the zoo. Here is her introduction.
Hi, everybody. Here we’re in front of the South Gate. Go straight on,
and you’ll find the Panda House. Pandas are cute. They like to eat
bamboo and lie down all day long. Every year, lots of visitors come
here to see them.
5 Walk along the road. To the north of the Panda House, you’ll find
the lions. Lions are the kings of the animal world. Remember that
they’re dangerous. Never go near them.
Turn left, and to the west of the Lions’ Area, you’ll find the World of
Birds. Birds make beautiful sounds when they sing. To the north of
10 the World of Birds is the Monkeys’ Forest. Monkeys are clever and
funny. They jump around and make people laugh.
Then turn right, and to the east of the Monkeys’ Forest, you’ll see
the giraffes. They’re quite tall. Their long necks help them eat the
leaves from trees. North-east of the giraffes there’s a bridge. Cross
15 the bridge, and you’ll see the elephants. Their large ears are like
open fans.
Here you can see all kinds of animals. Have a nice trip!

Falling tone and rising tone

2 Pandas are cute.
When we ask a yes/no question, our tone rises at the end of the question.
1 Are there any lions?
2 Is the zoo far away from our school?
When we ask a wh- question, our tone usually falls at the end of the question.

happened there. They told Daniel their story and Daniel put the story on his
blog. Here is the story.
One Sunday morning, Millie and Amy went to Sunshine
Park. As usual, they sat down under a big tree.
Suddenly, they heard a whisper from the bushes behind
the tree. They turned around but saw nothing. “Is
5 anybody there?” Millie asked. Nobody replied. “That’s
strange,” the two girls were very afraid. They left the
park quickly. On their way home, they met Andy.
“What happened?” Andy asked.
“There’s a ‘ghost’in the park!” Millie said. Then she told Andy everything. “What
10 is it?” Andy wondered. He went to the park, stood beside the tree and listened
carefully. Then he heard the whisper! He searched the bushes.
“Here it is,” Andy said to himself. He found a little cat in the bushes. It was very
weak. When it miaowed, it sounded like a whisper.
Andy picked up the little cat and went to find Millie and Amy.

was a little cat! Later that day, they took the little cat to the animal centre.

We live in a wonderful world with a lot of amazing things.
Many people like sandwiches, but do you know anything about this
kind of food?
Sandwich got its name from a man called John Montagu, the Fourth
Earl of Sandwich. The man loved playing cards with his friends very
much. He did not want to stop for meals, so he put meat between
two pieces of bread. Soon others wanted to eat the same food, so
they asked for a “sandwich”.
Later the food became popular all over the world. Isn’t that amazing?
You want to write about something amazing. Prepare notes on it. You can

One sunny day, Alice sat by a river with her sister.

How amazing! Alice stood up and ran across the field after the rabbit.
The rabbit jumped down a big hole. Alice did not want to let the
rabbit get away, so she jumped down the hole too.
Down, down, down. Alice fell for a long time, and then she hit the
10 ground. She found herself alone in a long, low hall. There were doors
all around, but they were all locked. Alice saw a small key on a table,

More of Alice in Wonderland
Sandy is interested in Alice in Wonderland. She is reading the next part
of the story.
Alice did not know what to do. Then she went back
to the table and saw a little bottle on it. A note
on the bottle said “DRINK ME”.
Alice opened the bottle and drank
a little. It tasted sweet. Alice liked
it. She drank some more. Then
she felt a little ill. She looked
down and saw that her body
became smaller and smaller.
Soon Alice was small enough to go through the door, so she decided to
enter the garden. When she walked towards the door, she forgot about
the key.
Alice had to go back to the table, but she was too small to reach the
key. She tried to climb up, but failed. Then she saw a piece of cake
under the table. A note on the box said “EAT ME”.

A A brave young man
Daniel is reading a newspaper article about a brave young man. Here is
the article.
Sunshine Daily
What a brave young man!
Lin Tao is 20 years old. He was brave enough to save his neighbour
from a fire.
On 10 May, Lin Tao was at home alone. Suddenly, he heard someone
shouting “Fire! Fire! Help!” He ran outside and saw a lot of smoke from
5 next door. He went in and found his neighbour, the 79-year-old Mrs Sun,
in the kitchen. Her left leg was badly hurt and she could not get out.
Lin Tao quickly ran to Mrs Sun’s bathroom. He poured water over his
clothes to protect himself. Then he rushed into the kitchen. There was
heavy smoke and the fire was very hot. He put a wet blanket over Mrs
10 Sun and helped her out. Later some firemen came and put out the fire.
The fire burnt Lin Tao’s arms, neck and face. He was in hospital for two
weeks. Many people visited him and gave him flowers and presents.
“How brave you are!” they said. “Were you afraid at that moment?”
“Yes, a little,” Lin Tao nodded,
15 “but I didn’t have time to think
about it. Mrs Sun needed my
help.”
“Fire is very dangerous. We
should be careful with it,” he
20 also said.

A recommendation letter
Mr Wu wrote a letter to recommend Daniel for this year’s Young Star Award.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I would like to recommend Chen Dan for this year’s Young Star Award.
Chen Dan is a clever boy. He learns things quickly. He can use
computers well. When he is free, he often helps at the Helping Hands
Club and does most of the computer work for the club.
Chen Dan always thinks carefully when he works. He plans everything
well. He is a member of our Project Hope group and often takes part in
activities like collecting clothes and books for children in need.
Chen Dan is really kind. Last week, a five-year-old boy lost his way and
was crying in the street. Chen Dan saw him and took him to the police
station. He stayed with the boy and played with him for two hours
before the boy’s parents came.
All the members at the Helping Hands Club think that Chen Dan
should get the award. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours faithfully,
Wu Bing
