  Rohit and Sahil were two woodcutters in a village. Every morning they went to cut wood and sold it. They both could make enough to live. A story happened to them recently.
  One day while they were taking a break and eating lunch, they saw a very thin beggar. He said, “Im very hungry. Would you give some food to me?” Rohit felt pity about him and quickly looked for food in his bag. But Sahil stopped him.
  Sahil looked at the beggar, “We both work hard all day and have enough food for ourselves. We cannot give you what we are eating. But if you want to borrow my axe, well teach you how to cut wood. Then you can sell it and buy yourself enough food. This way you can live a normal life and never beg.”
  The beggar joined them. Sahil taught him and they went to the market at the end of the day. A person bought all his wood, so the beggar was excited and showed the woodcutters his money happily. Sahil took him to buy a new axe with his own money. The beggar thanked them.
  After the beggar left, Sahil told Rohit, “If you have given him some food, he would eat it quickly and be hungry again tonight. By teaching him how to cut wood, he has a life skill. Now he will never go hungry.”

音的长度、音的重音、音的高低是英语语音最重要的三个组成部分,其中又以音的重音为核心。而汉语中的字都是单音节的,以四个声调加以辨别,并不以音的轻重区分。受到汉语发音的影响,多数人容易把英语单词的每一个音节都读得一样长、一样重和一样高,从而失去了英语所特有的抑扬顿挫、错落有致的节奏感。  单词重音、句子重音以及短语重音,是英语语音学习的重点,对掌握好节奏和语调有极其重要的作用,必须对这三个概念、读法、
