it to emphasise how we feel. All that is coming right up.

讓英語發音更自然。那些全都會馬上出現。

So why is stress so important? 'This is such a good party''I'm so excited right now!' 'This

那麼為什麼強調（stress）很重要？ This is such a good party. I'm so excited right now!

is really good'. Woah! Ok without stress our sentences have no life. So we use stress to

This is really good. 喔！好！沒有強調（stress），我們的語句就不生動了。 所以我們用強調（stress）來

help us to show or to indicate what we think is the important information in a sentence.

幫我們表達或暗示我們認為句中哪些資訊比較重要；

We also use it to emphasise how we feel about something and that's what we are going to

我們也用來凸顯我們對什麼的感受，這就是我們今天要

focus on today. So we use before adjectives. 'He is so annoying' 'She's so cute' 'Oh my

關注的。我們會在形容詞前使用。 'He is so annoying.' 'She's so cute.' 'Oh my

God! It's so cold' And we use such in front of a noun. 'He's such a nice guy' 'That's

God! It's so cold.' 我們也在名詞前用。 'He's such a nice guy.' 'That's

such a good idea' 'It was such a bad film'. Ok, can you see there that I'm stressing so

such a good idea.' 'It was such a bad film.' 好！你能不能看到我在強調（stressing）的 so

and such? And they are just emphasising how I feel. It's such a good idea, you know it's

和 such？這就只是在凸顯我的感覺。 It's such a good idea，你知道這

not just a good idea, I believe in the idea. It's such a good idea. Alright let's put it

不只是好主意，我相信這是好主意。 It's such a good idea. 好了！我們把它

into a conversation. A conversation about Game of Thrones. Did you see Game of Thrones

加進對話——跟 Game of Thrones 有關的對話。 黑：「你昨天有沒有看 Game of Thrones？」

last night? No, was it good? ? Oh my God! It was so good. You have to watch it. Ok,

白：「沒有，那很棒嗎？」 黑：「嘔！天啊！我的老天鵝啊！ 那真的很棒，你一定要看。」 白：「好的，

cool. I will. Yeah, you've got to watch it, it was such a good episode. Now this stress

酷喔！我會去看。」 黑：「對！你一定要看，it was such a good episode。」 現在這種強調（stress）

pattern is commonly used with so and such. That's used all the time. We can also use

方式，通常都是用 so 和 such， 而且會一直被拿來用，我們也能

it with other adverbs so in this sentence 'It really stinks in here' 'Can you actually

在語句中拿來跟副詞一起用。 'It really stinks in here.' 'Can you actually

believe what he just said?' 'I am very tired.' Alright so other adverbs there. We've got

believe what he just said?' 'I am very tired.' 好了！所以這裡有其他副詞，我們用

really, we've got actually and we've got very. Alright guys it's time for you to practise.

really；我們用 actually；我們用 very。 好了夥伴！是時候該練習了。
