15.*** This exercise is meant to develop your ability to hear and reproduce intonation. a) Listen to the text "Our Sitting-Room" sentence by sentence. Write it down. Mark the stresses and tunes. Practise the text. b) Record your reading. Play the recording back immediately for your teacher to detect the errors. Practise the text for test reading. c) Describe any picture in the same manner.

16.*** Read the text silently to make sure you understand each sentence. Split up each sentence into intonation-groups if necessary. Underline the communicative centre and the nuclear word in each phrase. Mark the stresses and tunes. It is not expected that each student of the class will mark the text in exactly the same way. Your teacher will help all the members of the class to correct their variants. Finally practise reading your corrected variant:

 

When you enter our sitting-room, the first thing you notice is the large window opposite the door. On the left is an armchair with a small table by it. On the table are some books and an electric table-lamp. There are two other armchairs in the room and a settee.

"Aren't there any small chairs?"

"Only one, which is next to the radio-set, opposite the window. I have also a small cassette-recorder, which I keep in my bedroom."

"Have you many cassettes?"

"Quite a lot... The mantelpiece is on the right of the window and next to it is a bookcase."

"Do you read a lot?"

"Yes, everybody in our family likes reading. There are books in every room."

"What else is there in the room?".

"Nothing else. We don't like a lot of things in our room."

Section Five

I. Accidental Rise

 

 

If the speaker wants to make one word of the descending head more prominent than the others he pronounces it a little higher than the preceding syllables thus breaking their descending succession. This non-final rise is called accidental. It never occurs on the first stressed syllable as this syllable is always the highest in the descending head.
