致勝英國英語發音(圖)
來源：
小編： 34Abstract: 隨著雅思口語引進半分制, 學生對英語發音特別是英國英語發音的規則知知甚少, 據官方信息以往的英語口音以2,4,6,8分為主導評分制今年8月1日起開始0-9分大跨度評分制度的轉變,對想拿到口語高分的同學的語音,語調,音色的表現和把握,下面對英國英語的基本介紹希望能對考生帶來幫助.
英語到了十九世紀, 英語語言的變化帶有社會階級的色彩由此女王英語The Queen’s English, 女王英語被公認為標準音Standard Pronunciation, 后來演變為公認的發音Received Pronunciation(RP), 典型英國英語的標準音. 1922年英國廣播公司BBC采用RP標準音, 就此BBC為標準音. 也有人把他稱為Oxbridge English(牛津劍橋英語). 即使這樣也只有10%的人發RP口音, 應為RP發音帶有濃厚的上層社會色彩, 人們把發音看作是社會地位的標志. 假如一個受過良好教育的人不會發RP音, 很難體現自己的社會身份以及地位的體現.
