Lions often go out of the park at night. They go to the farms and eat the cows. As a result, farmers have to kill the lions to protect their cows.

Phonetics in use
Stressing words in sentences (1)
In English sentences, we say certain words with more stress than others. We usually stress nouns and verbs because they are important to the meaning of a sentence.
For example: A Kenyan boy named Richard Turere helped solve this problem and protect the lions…
Improve your pronunciation for clear communication
在句子中，有的单词重读，有的不重读，那些比较重要
的词保留着重读，这些重读音就叫句子重音。
一般情况下，如名词、动词、形容词、副词、数词等在句
中要重读，如介词、冠词、连词、人称代词、情态动词肯
定式等不重读，这样就形成了以句子为单位的词的轻重交
替。英语句子按“词的相对重要性”形成“句子重音”。
Listen and underline the stressed words.
1. Teenagers are the future of our society.
