-ing endings→ -in‘

    注意：對于絕大多數(shù)的 native speaker ，他們并不是把所有的-ing結(jié)尾的
音都念作-in ‘。-in ’是一種非正式的口語發(fā)音，通常用于動詞的進行時態(tài)。

    Listen to each part of the conversation ： first spoken with careful
（slow） pronunciation； then spoken with relaxed （fast） pronunciation.

    NANCY ： Well ， hi ！ You‘re shopping here， too！

    KIM ： Not really. I‘m just looking around. So ， how have you been？

    NANCY ： Great. I ‘m shopping with my sister. She’s over there.

    KIM ： Is that your sister？ The tall woman in front of the jackets？

    NANCY ： Yes. She ‘s looking for a jacket for work.

    KIM ： Are you shopping for work clothes， too？

    NANCY ： No. I‘m looking for a pair of jeans like yours.

    KIM ： Oh. I found these here last week for 30 percent off.

    NANCY ： For 30 percent off ？ Thanks for telling me.

    KIM ： Well ， nice seeing you again. I hope you find what you‘re
looking for.

    Listen to the entire conversation again ， spoken with relaxed（fast）

    pronunciation.

    對話中所出現(xiàn)的此前學(xué)過的連音：you ‘re / your → yer； yours→ yers
； you→ ya ； of → a； for→ fer

    注意最后一句 "I hope you find what you're looking for." 由于 for后
面沒有其他單詞，所以它仍然念作 for.
