中学外语教学的目的是使学生初步掌握外语这个工具,培养学生听、说、读、写几个方面的技能技巧,为今后的进一步学习和运用打下基础。而要达到这个目的,就必须抓住“入门”教学这个关键。在“入门”阶段,掌握语音是最基本的一环。书本是语言的文字形式。但英语的字母拼音和单词发音是两套,有了形,不一定能正确地发出音来,这对于初学者来说,确是一个难题。要解决这个问题,就需要借助于国际音标了。 The purpose of foreign language teaching in middle schools is to enable students to initially grasp the foreign language as a tool to develop students’ skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. This will lay the foundation for further study and application in the future. To achieve this goal, we must seize the key to “introduction” teaching. In the “introduction” stage, mastering the voice is the most basic part. The book is the textual form of the language. However, English alphabets and word pronunciations are two sets. If they are shaped, they may not sound correctly. This is a difficult problem for beginners. To solve this problem, we need to rely on the International Phonetic Alphabet.
