B: Would you like to stretch your legs?
D: Good idea. We have enough time to go around in the intermission.
B: Yes. How do you like this concert?
D: I was carried away by the music. You know. I am a big fan of classic music.
B: Yeah, classic music can pure one's mind and stirs up one's imagination.
D: Indeed, the acoustics here are great. Do you like the conductor?
B: Yes, I am crazy about him, and I have collected many CDs of his performance.
D: Me too! He and the orchestra are perfect-matched!
B: Absolutely right! The audience were stunned by their performance. They really make a hit tonight.
D: Yes, the concert is not only "good value", but also "good rocking". Thank you for inviting me to this concert.
B: You are welcome. Music to us is something we cannot go without.
英语笔记
1.stretch your legs 在此为“活动，放松”之意。
2.carried 中的/d/音与away 中的/ə/连读，carried away 读作/'kærɪ də'weɪ/。
3.about 此处弱读，失去/ə/音，变为/baʊt/。
4.此处us 弱读为/əs/。
英语语音语调
连读中的注意事项
“I was carried away by the performance.”一句中的“carried away"发生了连读现象，这是因为两词相邻，且符合连读的规则，即前一个词以辅音结尾，后一个词议元音开头。但是，连读必须注意以下两点：
1.连读必须在同一个意群中进行。所谓意群，就是意思相关的一组词，如“carried away”属于一个短语，处在同一个意群，并符合连读规则，所以可以连读。否则，即使符合连读规则，但不在一个意群，也不能连读。如：
Shall we meet at nine tonight or eight tomorrow?
我们今晚九点见还是明天八点?
这句中的“tonight竹与“or”不属于一个意群，虽符合连读规则，但不能连读。
2.如果连读会造成听话人的误解，即使符合连读规则也不能连读。如：
There is an answer.
这就是答案。
这句话中如果“an"与“answer”连读，会令人误听为announcer.所以不能连读。
