💡 顾老师提示:"对峙"的英语表达要根据具体场景选择:confrontation强调对抗性,standoff强调僵持状态,face-off强调面对面,showdown强调决定性对抗。

🔊 发音指导

confrontation:/ˌkɒnfrʌnˈteɪʃən/ [康-弗伦-忒-申]

standoff:/ˈstændɒf/ [斯坦-道夫]

face-off:/ˈfeɪsɒf/ [费斯-奥夫]

showdown:/ˈʃəʊdaʊn/ [收-当]

发音要点:

  • confrontation:注意"fr"连读和重音在第三个音节
  • standoff:复合词,两部分发音清晰
  • face-off:连字符不影响发音,保持两个单词的原音
  • showdown:注意"ow"发/əʊ/音

💡 顾老师纠音:常见错误:

  • 把confrontation读成"康弗朗特申"(正确:[ˌkɒnfrʌnˈteɪʃən]
  • 忽略standoff中的"d"发音
  • 把showdown的"down"读成"当"(正确:/daʊn/)
