语　调
语调，即说话的腔调，就是一句话里声调的高低、抑扬轻重的分配和变化。世界上没有一种语言是用单一的声调说出的。以英语为例，英语有五种基本语调：升调(↗)、降调(?)、升降调(∧)、降升调(∨)以及平调(→)。一句话除了词汇意义还有语调意义。所谓词汇意义就是话中所用词的意义，而语调意义就是说话人用语调所表示的态度或口气。词汇意义加上语调意义才算是一句话的完整的意义。
1．升调
表示说话人态度不肯定、意思不完整、语法结构不独立，常用于以下情况：
(1)一般疑问句用升调，表示怀疑、疑问、未定、猜测或期待。
*Do you have a pencil ↗
(2)罗列事物时，前面各项用升调，最后一项用降调。
*For each incomplete sentence, there are four choices marked A↗ B↗ C↗ and D．↘
(3)并列句的第一个分句用升调，表示句子还没说完。
*My fever is gone, ↗but I still have a cough.
(4)委婉祈使句用升调。
*Excuse me, sir. ↗Can you help me
(5)称呼语用升调。
*Mrs. Smith，↗ this is Tom Jones.
2．降调
表示说话人态度肯定、意思表达完整、语法结构独立，常用于以下情况：
(1)陈述句用降调。
*I have already seen that movie. ↘
(2)特殊疑问句用降调。
*What has happened to him ↘
当用特殊疑问句请别人重复刚说过的话时，要用升调。
*—I graduated from Wuhan University and majored in engineering. ↘
—What was your major ↗
(3)祈使句用降调。
*Go back to your seat! ↘
(4)感叹句用降调。
*What a small world! ↘
(5)选择疑问句中，“or”前面的部分用升调，后面的部分用降调。
*Do you want to drive ↗or walk ↘
3．平调
一般用于直接引语后面，没有音的高低变化：
*“We are going to Beijing，” she said brightly.
同时，英音和美音在语调方面也有很大的不同。语调的变化表示说话人的不同态度，甚至包含隐含意义。掌握英语口语的语调变化，能够让你的口语更加具有感彩、更有表现力。

[听力原文]
Recently, a cleaner by the name of Chen Liyan has made the headlines for her generous and honest act. The 45 year old Chen was sweeping the floor at Taiyuan Railway Station early last Tuesday morning when she found a small plastic bag near a chair and discovered 100，000 yuan inside. Chen was shocked but she was determined to return the money to its owner.①
When interviewed by the local paper yesterday, Chen said, “I would have felt bad if I had kept the money. After all, the owner might have needed it badly.”
While working, Chen watched carefully for anyone who might have been the owner. She waited for over two hours, but having no luck, she went to the nearest police station to turn the money in. There, it was finally returned to its owner, Wang Zheng.②
Wang thanked Chen repeatedly and apologised for the inconvenience, even offering her 5，000 yuan as a reward. To his surprise, however, Chen refused, believing that it would be wrong to accept money that she had not earned.
But what is even more surprising, perhaps, is that Chen's daughter, 16 year old Liu Xia is currently seriously ill. Chen had already spent the last of her savings on the ongoing treatments and has also taken out a large loan.
Fortunately, Ma Dongbao, who works at the police station, stepped in. Living in the same apartment building as Chen's family, Ma was well aware of Chen's difficulties. When Wang was told about Chen's situation, he decided to set up a fundraising website to pay for Liu's hospital bills.③
Chen Liyan's example shows a different way of thinking about money. Money is important, but to people like Chen, it definitely isn't everything.④ And that's a great attitude to take.

[听力原文]
W：I went to see a play recently at the local City Theater with my family. It was really exciting. The play was called Detectives. To be honest, when I heard the name of it, I didn't know what to expect. So I wasn't really sure I would enjoy it. But in fact, this was a comedy, so everyone in my family liked it—including me！① We all laughed a lot.
The play itself was full of surprises. The actors weren't very well known, but they were good, and the stage was well decorated too. But my favourite bit was the dancing②—a group of about 12 people came on every time the music started, and they did everything from street dance to ballet!
The City Theater is wonderful inside. The red seats and the curtains are the same as I've seen in our local cinema, but the size of the place really surprised me! It could hold about 1，000 people！③
My parents thought the price of the theater tickets was quite reasonable. They're usually about $50, but they paid $35 each. Mine was $14 because I took my student card with me.④
