In English, sentences stress is very important. We stress key words, which give the main information and the main ideas.
句子的重音主要有两个功能：
1. 体现句子的节奏感和韵律感
2. 突出重点，使听者更容易理解
在朗读英语或用英语交流时，我们把有些词读得又轻又快，而且较为含糊，有些词则读得又重又慢，而且较为清晰，那些读得响亮而清晰的词就是句子重音所在。
重音
英语句子一般由多个单词构成，这些单词的重读(stress) 一般遵循以下规律：名词、形容词、数词、动词、副词、代词和表达强烈思想感情的感叹词需要重读；人称代词、连词、冠词、介词、以及少数系动词和助动词等主要起语法作用的单词一般不重读（当然有少数例外）。
分析:
4 Listen and notice how the speaker stresses the
underlined words.
– Shenzhen is larger in population than Beijing.
– No, it isn’t. It’s smaller.
2. – Hong Kong is newer than Shenzhen.
– No, it isn’t. It’s older.
3. – Shenzhen is as old as Hong Kong.
– No, it isn’t. It’s newer.
4. – Hong Kong is as busy as Shenzhen.
– No, it isn’t. It’s busier.
Now work in pairs. Listen again and repeat.
5 Compare Shenzhen with your home town. Make notes
in the table.
Shenzhen Your home town
a big city
— Is your home town bigger than Shenzhen
— No, it isn’t. It’s smaller than Shenzhen.
6 Work in pairs. Talk about the differences between
Shenzhen and your home town. Use big, small, hot,
cold, tall or new.
