Daniel: Dad, do you know which bus we should take?

Benjamin: Of course, er, let me check the bus schedule first.

Daniel: Be quick, please!

Benjamin: Why can't I find the bus your mother told me yesterday?

Daniel: Mom has told you about the direction 3 times yesterday.

Dad: But I was watching American Idol at that time.

Daniel: We need to ask someone.

(There comes Bus 29)

Benjamin: Excuse me? Does this bus go to Xidan Book Building?

Conductor: No, it doesn't. You need to take Bus 52.

Benjamin: Do I have to change to some other bus on the way?

Conductor: No.

Benjamin: I see, thanks. Oops! The Bus 52 is coming. Daniel, come on. Let's go.

Pronunciation 语音小结——半元音1组
1./w / which we why when

发音小贴士：舌后部向软腭抬起，双唇收得圆而小，并向前突出，音一经发出就立即向后面的元音滑动，声带振动。

2．/j / yesterday yet yes yellow

发音小贴士：舌前部尽量向硬腭抬起，双唇向两边伸展成扁平形。该音一经发出立刻向后面元音滑动，声带振动。

特别提示：在美音辅音系统中比英音多了个清辅音/hw /，和浊辅音/w /相对，有不少美国人把wh开头的单词念成/hw /,如what /hwat /, why /hwai/

对比练习 /w /和/j / west and your wet and you wise and young water and yard
