Good afternoon CLB 7/8,

I know it doesn't really feel like Spring yet, but it's officially here.  Hooray!  This afternoon, you'll be working on a couple of activities.  First, I'd like you to begin with some sentence stress exercise.  I'll give you the handout and the links for the audio files are here:

Answer Key
On Monday, we talked a little about different kinds of Englishes and how you may hear a variety of different registers when you're listening or interacting with others.  Here's a fun dialogue that shows you difference between careful and relaxed pronunciation.  The subject of the dialogue may be a familiar one for you. ;)  I hope you like it.



Click on the links to listen to the audio files and complete the dialogue between Herman and Zelda.
