As students begin to read, the ability to blend phonemes orally contributes to their reading development primarily because it prepares students to:
A. recognize high-frequency words in a text automatically.
B. combine letter-sounds to decode words.
C. guess the meaning of unfamiliar words from their context.
D. divide written words into onsets and rimes.
當學生開始閱讀時,口頭上混合音素的能力有助於他們的閱讀發展,主要是因為它能讓學生做好以下準備:
A. 自動辨識文字中的高頻詞。
B. 組合字母發音來解碼單字。
C. 根據上下文猜測不熟悉單字的意思。
D. 將書寫單字分為聲母和韻母。
B
Phonemic blending is the ability to combine a sequence of speech sounds (phonemes) together to form a word. Beginning readers use their skill in phonemic blending and their knowledge of letter-sound correspondences to sound out and blend the sounds of simple printed words. A, C, and D are incorrect because they describe literacy skills that are unrelated to phonemic blending
音素拼讀是指將一系列語音(音素)組合在一起形成單字的能力。初級讀者會運用他們的音素拼讀技巧以及對字母-聲音對應關係的了解,來拼讀和拼讀簡單的印刷體單字。 A、C 和 D 不正確,因為它們描述的是與音素拼讀無關的讀寫技能。
A teacher is selecting words to use to assess students’ ability to segment the individual phonemes in spoken words. Which of the following words would require the highest level of skill with regard to orally segmenting phonemes?
A. stamp
B. catch
C. fudge
D. chase
一位老師正在選擇詞彙來評估學生在口語中區分單一音素的能力。下列哪一個字在口語中區分音素方面需要最高的技能?
A. stamp
B. catch
C. fudge
D. chase
A
Option A is correct because the word stamp is more challenging to segment than the words catch, fudge, and chase. The word stamp contains five phonemes, including blends in both syllable-initial and syllable-final positions. In particular, the two phonemes /m/ and /p/ in the final nasal blend -mp can be challenging for students to perceive and segment. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because, while the words may have complex spelling patterns, they each contain only three individual phonemes and no consonant blends: The word catch (B) contains the phonemes /k/, /ă/, and /ch/; fudge (C) contains the phonemes /f/, /ŭ/, and /j/; and chase (D) contains the phonemes /ch/, /ā/, and /s/.
選項 A 是正確的,因為單字 stamp 比單字 catch、fudge 和 chase 更難分割。單字 stamp 包含五個音素,包括音節首和音節末的混合音。特別是,最後一個鼻音混合音 -mp 中的兩個音素 /m/ 和 /p/ 對學生來說,感知和分割起來比較困難。選項 B、C 和 D 不正確,因為雖然這些單字可能具有複雜的拼字模式,但它們每個只包含三個單獨的音素,並且沒有輔音混合音:單字 catch (B) 包含音素 /k/、/ă/ 和 /ch/;fudge (C) 包含音素 /f/、/ŭ/ 和 /j/ / / +/S 和 chase / +/S)。
Which of the following tasks requires the most advanced level of skill along the phonological awareness continuum?
A. orally segmenting the phonemes in the word chimp and then substituting /ŏ/ for /ĭ/ to make a new word, chomp
B. orally segmenting the word wonderful into won/der/ful and then tapping the number of syllables in the word
C. listening to the words place and pluck and then orally segmenting each word into its onset and rime
D. listening to the words fiddle and fresh and then determining that both words begin with the same phoneme, /f/
下列哪一項任務需要語音意識連續體中最高等級的技能?
A. 口語分割單字 chimp 中的音素,然後用 /ŏ/ 取代 /ĭ/ 組成一個新單字 chomp
B. 口頭將單字 wonderful 分割成 won/der/ful,然後敲擊單字中的音節數
C. 聽單字 place 和 pluck,然後口頭分割每個單字的聲母和韻母
D. 聽單字 fiddle 和 fresh,然後確定這兩個單字都以相同的音素 /f/ 開頭
A
Phonological and phonemic awareness skills develop along a continuum from basic to more complex skills. Phonemic awareness is a more advanced type of phonological awareness that involves the ability to distinguish and manipulate the individual phonemes in spoken words. Segmenting all the phonemes in a four-phoneme word (chimp) and then substituting the phoneme /ŏ/ for /ĭ/ to make a new word (chomp) are both tasks that involve complex skills at the higher end of the phonologicalawareness continuum. B, C, and D are incorrect because segmenting words into syllables and then counting the syllables (B), segmenting words into their onset and rime (C), and recognizing alliterative words—words that begin with the same phoneme (D)—are less complex skills that children develop earlier along the phonological awareness continuum.
語音和音素意識技能的發展是一個從基礎技能到更複雜技能的連續過程。音素意識是更高級的語音意識,涉及區分和處理口語單字中各個音素的能力。將一個四音素單字中的所有音素分割開來(chimp),然後用音素 /ŏ/ 替換為 /ĭ/ 來組成一個新單字(chomp),這兩項任務都涉及語音意識連續體高端的複雜技能。 B、C 和 D 不正確,因為將單字分割成音節然後計算音節數(B)、將單字分割成聲母和韻母(C)以及識別頭韻詞(以相同音素開頭的單字)(D)是兒童在語音意識連續體早期發展的較低複雜技能。
A kindergarten teacher engages a small group of children in the following Say It and Move It activity.
* The teacher says a two-phoneme word slowly (e.g., ape, bee, day, eat, go, she, toe).
* The children slowly repeat the word.
* The children move a plain wooden block as they say each phoneme, lining up the two blocks from left to right.
Once the children demonstrate mastery of this activity, which of the following strategies would be most appropriate for the teacher to use next to build the children’s phonemic awareness?
A. writing pairs of words on the board that differ by one phoneme (e.g., ape, cape) and pointing out to the children that the second word contains more phonemes than the first
B. exchanging the plain blocks for alphabet letter blocks and then helping the children do the Say It and Move It activity with relevant letter blocks, using pairs of words that have two and three phonemes (e.g., go, goat)
C. saying a pair of words that differ by one phoneme (e.g., bee, beach) and encouraging the children to generate pairs of words that rhyme with the target words (e.g., tea, teach)
D. displaying pictures for a pair of two- and three-phoneme words that differ by a single phoneme (e.g., toe, toad) and having the children complete the Say It and Move It activity for each word in the pair
一位幼兒園老師帶領一小群孩子參與以下「說出來,移動它」活動。
* 老師緩緩地說出一個由兩個音素組成的單字(例如,ape、bee、day、eat、go、she、toe)。
* 孩子慢慢地重複這個詞。
* 孩子一邊說每個音素,一邊移動一個普通的木塊,將兩個木塊從左到右排列。
當孩子們掌握了這項活動後,老師接下來應該使用下列哪一種策略來培養孩子的音素意識?
A. 在黑板上寫出一對音素相差一個的單字(例如 ape、cape),並向孩子指出第二個字比第一個單字包含更多音素。
B. 將普通積木換成字母積木,然後幫助孩子們用相關的字母積木進行「說出來並移動」活動,使用包含兩個和三個音素的單字對(例如 go、goat)。
C. 說出一對音素相差一個的單字(例如 bee、beach),並鼓勵孩子組合出與目標單字押韻的單字對(例如 tea、teach)。
D. 顯示一對音素相差一個的雙音素和三音素單字的圖片(例如 toe、toad),並讓孩子完成對中每個單字的「說出來並移動」活動。
D
Option D is correct because the strategy aligns with the evidence-based practice of increasing the complexity of an instructional task incrementally. In D, the teacher increases the length of the spoken words in the phonemic awareness task by one phoneme. In the initial Say It and Move It activity described, the stimuli are all words with two phonemes. The task described in option D adds one sound to the beginning or end of the same spoken words, thereby increasing the number of phonemes from two to three. By using pictures in the task, the teacher reinforces the concept that a one phoneme difference also changes the meaning of a word. A and B are incorrect because these options not only add spoken words with three phonemes to the original task, but they dramatically increase the task complexity by changing the task from oral to written and requiring the children to recognize phonics/spelling patterns such as VCe and vowel teams. Whereas the task described in C, generating rhyming words, represents a less complex task along the phonological awareness continuum.
D
選項D是正確的,因為策略符合實證實踐,即逐步增加教學任務的複雜性。在D中,教師將音素意識任務中口語單字的長度增加了一個音素。在最初描述的「說出來並移動它」活動中,刺激物都是包含兩個音素的單字。選項D中描述的任務是在同一個口語單字的開頭或結尾添加一個音素,將音素的數量從兩個增加到三個。透過在任務中使用圖片,教師強化了「一個音素的差異也會改變單字意義」的概念。 A和B是錯誤的,因為這些選項不僅在原始任務中添加了包含三個音素的口語單詞,而且還通過將任務從口語變為書面語,並要求學生識別語音/拼寫模式(例如VCe和元音組合),顯著增加了任務的複雜性。而C所描述的任務,即生成押韻的單詞,則代表了語音意識連續體中一個不太複雜的任務。
Use the table below to answer the question that follows
In which line in the table is a word accurately matched to the number of phonemes the word contains?
A. Line 1
B. Line 2
C. Line 3
D. Line 4
使用下表回答以下問題:
表格中哪一行的單字與其包含的音素數量準確匹配?
A. 第 1 行
B. 第 2 行
C. 第 3 行
D. 第 4 行
A
Option A is correct because the word though is made up of two speech sounds: /th/ (spelled th) and /ō/ (spelled ough), so Line 1 of the chart is correct. B is incorrect because the word best has four distinct speech sounds, /b/, /ĕ/, /s/, and /t/, but the number of speech sounds appearing in Line 2 of the chart is 3. C is incorrect because the word fresh has 4 distinct speech sounds, /f/, /r/, /ĕ/, and /sh/, but the number of speech sounds appearing in Line 3 of the chart is 5. D is incorrect because the word scratch has 5 distinct speech sounds, /s/, /k/, /r/, /ă/, and /ch/, but the number of speech sounds appearing in Line 4 of the chart is 6.
選項A正確,因為單字though由兩個語音組成:/th/(拼寫為th)和/ō/(拼寫為ough),所以圖表的第1行是正確的。選項B不正確,因為單字best有四個不同的語音:/b/、/ĕ/、/s/和/t/,但圖表的第2行出現的語音數量是3。選項C不正確,因為單字fresh有四個不同的語音:/f/、/r/、/ĕ/和/sh/,但圖表的第3行出現的語音數量是5。選項D不正確,因為單字scratch有五個不同的語音:/s/、/k/、/r/、/ă/和/ch/,但圖表的第4行出現的語音數量是6。
A prekindergarten teacher asks a small group of children to listen to and repeat what the teacher says. First, the teacher says the word mop and then pronounces it as /m/ and [ŏp]. Next, the teacher says the word take and then pronounces it as /t/ and [āk]. This activity is likely to promote the children’s phonological awareness primarily by:
A. modeling how to separate the syllables in spoken words.
B. showing them how to segment words into onsets and rimes.
C. promoting their awareness of each phoneme in a spoken word.
D. teaching them how to distinguish between consonants and vowels.
一位幼兒園老師請一小群孩子聽老師講的內容並跟著看。首先,老師說「mop」這個詞,然後把它唸成/m/和[ŏp]。接下來,老師說「take」這個詞,然後把它唸成/t/和[āk]。這項活動主要透過以下方式來提升孩子的語音意識:
A. 示範如何區分口語單字中的音節。
B. 教他們如何將單字分成聲母和韻母。
C. 提高他們對口語單字中每個音素的意識。
D. 教他們如何區分子音和母音。
B
In the activity described, the teacher provides direct instruction in segmenting single-syllable words into onset and rime—that is, into the initial consonant sounds of the word (the onset) and the rest of the word (the rime). promoting student mastery of onset-rime segmentation prepares students for learning phonemic awareness skills. Option A is incorrect because the segmenting activity described in the scenario focuses on single-syllable words, so it would not help students segment the syllables in multisyllable spoken words. options C and D are incorrect because the segmenting activity described in the scenario does not focus on recognizing individual phonemes, so it would not promote the children’s awareness of each distinct phoneme n a word (C) or their ability to distinguish between consonant and vowel phonemes (D).
在所描述的活動中,教師直接指導學生將單音節詞分割成聲母和韻母,即詞首的子音(聲母)和詞尾的其餘部分(韻母)。幫助學生掌握聲母韻母的分割方法,有助於學生學習音素意識技能。選項A不正確,因為場景中描述的分割活動側重於單音節詞,因此無法幫助學生分割多音節口語詞中的音節。選項C和D不正確,因為場景中描述的分割活動並非側重於識別單一音素,因此無法提高學生對單字中每個不同音素的意識(C)或區分輔音和元音音素的能力(D)。
A prekindergarten teacher is reading a storybook to the class so that the children can see the words and pictures while the teacher points to the line of print. This activity best contributes to the children’s emergent reading development primarily by:
A. promoting their development of letter-recognition skills.
B. helping them recognize the function of spaces between words.
C. developing their awareness of left-to-right directionality.
D. promoting their understanding of letter-sound correspondence.
一位幼兒園老師正在為全班朗讀一本故事書,讓孩子們看到文字和圖片,同時老師指著書上的一行字。這項活動主要透過以下方式促進孩子早期的閱讀發展:
A. 促進他們字母辨識技能的發展。
B. 幫助他們認識單字之間空格的作用。
C. 培養他們對從左到右方向性的意識。
D. 促進他們對字母發音對應關係的理解。
C
Option C is correct because, by following the line of print with a finger or pointer while reading, the teacher provides students with a visual demonstration that print is read from left to right. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because in the scenario described the teacher does not explicitly identify letters (A), spaces between words (B), or letter-sound correspondences related to the text (D).
選項C是正確的,因為老師用手指或食指順著文字行閱讀,直觀地向學生演示了文字是從左到右閱讀的。選項A、B和D不正確,因為在所描述的場景中,老師沒有明確指出字母(A)、單字之間的空格(B)或與文字相關的字母發音對應關係(D)。
Having kindergarten children practice tracing the letters of the alphabet in sand is most appropriate for children who need additional support in:
A. internalizing the alphabetic principle and letter-sound correspondences.
B. recognizing that print carries meaning.
C. understanding the relationship between spoken and written language.
D. developing letter-formation skills.
讓幼兒園兒童練習在沙上描摹字母表的字母最適合那些需要以下額外幫助的兒童:
A. 內化字母表的原理與字母與發音的對應關係。
B. 認識印刷文字所承載的意義。
C. 理解口語和書寫語之間的關係。
D. 發展字母書寫技能。
D
In the activity described, children use arm movements and highly textured material, which heighten the children’s awareness of letter shapes and the sequence of strokes for forming letters. The activity is effective for students who are having difficulty with letter formation because it simultaneously activates visual, kinesthetic, and tactile sensory pathways in learning letter shapes and associating these shapes with their names. Evidence suggests that such multi-sensory techniques are effective for this purpose. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because the activity described does not address the relationship between the alphabetic writing system of English and the sounds of spoken language (A), the function of print (B), or oral language (C).
在所描述的活動中,孩子運用手臂動作和紋理豐富的材料,增強了孩子對字母形狀和書寫筆畫順序的認知。這項活動對於那些在字母書寫方面有困難的學生來說非常有效,因為它在學習字母形狀並將這些形狀與名稱聯繫起來的過程中,同時激活了視覺、動覺和觸覺通路。有證據表明,這種多感官技巧在這方面是有效的。選項A、B和C不正確,因為所描述的活動沒有涉及英語字母書寫系統與口語語音(A)、印刷體功能(B)或口語(C)之間的關係。
A kindergarten teacher encourages beginning readers to “write” their own captions beneath their drawings. This practice is most likely to lead to which of the following outcomes?
A. The children’s grasp of the alphabetic principle will be reinforced as they apply phonetic spelling.
B. The children may become frustrated by the difficulty of the English spelling system and lose interest in writing.
C. Because of the reciprocity between decoding and encoding, the children’s reading progress may be adversely affected by any uncorrected spelling errors.
D. The children will tend to develop automatic word-recognition skills by engaging in spelling practice.
一位幼兒園老師鼓勵初學閱讀的孩子在自己的圖畫下方「寫」自己的標題。這種做法最可能導致下列哪一種結果?
A. 孩子在運用語音拼字時,對字母原理的掌握會加強。
B. 孩子可能會因為英語拼字系統的難度而感到沮喪,並失去寫作興趣。
C. 由於解碼和編碼之間的相互作用,任何未糾正的拼字錯誤都可能對孩子的閱讀進度產生不利影響。
D. 孩子往往會透過拼字練習來發展自動單字辨識技能。
A
The alphabetic principle is the understanding that letters represent the sounds (phonemes) of spoken language and that phonemes have a predictable, systematic relationship to letters and letter combinations. Evidence indicates that students’ understanding of the alphabetic principle is reinforced and enhanced by having opportunities to apply their knowledge of letter-sound correspondences in both reading and writing—the latter by using phonetic spellings. Option B is incorrect because providing children with meaningful opportunities to write tends to be motivating rather than discouraging for beginning readers. Option C is incorrect because, at this stage of development, children would not be expected to spell words correctly but rather to apply their letter-sound knowledge to spell words phonetically, which promotes their reading progress. Option D is incorrect because children’s phonetic spellings would not consistently match the conventional spellings used in texts, so engaging in this writing activity would not promote automatic word recognition.
A
字母表原則是指字母代表口語的發音(音素),並且音素與字母及其組合之間存在可預測的系統性關係。證據表明,學生有機會將字母發音對應關係的知識應用於閱讀和寫作(後者透過拼音拼字),可以強化和提高他們對字母原則的理解。選項B不正確,因為為兒童提供有意義的寫作機會往往會激勵閱讀初學者,而不是讓他們感到灰心喪氣。選項C不正確,因為在這個發展階段,兒童不需要正確拼寫單詞,而是運用字母發音知識進行拼音拼寫,這有助於他們的閱讀進步。選項D不正確,因為兒童的拼音拼字與文本中使用的常規拼字不一致,因此參與這種寫作活動不會促進自動單字辨識。
A kindergarten teacher is reading a big book to a group of children. The teacher periodically points to the beginning consonant of selected words and accentuates its initial phoneme as the teacher reads the word aloud. The teacher’s practice is most likely to reinforce the children’s:
A. awareness of word boundaries in text.
B. awareness of letter-sound correspondences.
C. ability to segment the sounds of spoken words.
D. ability to apply phonemic blending skills.
一位幼兒園老師正在為一群孩子讀一本大書。老師會不時指出所選單字的首輔音,並在大聲朗讀時強調其首音素。老師的做法最有可能強化孩子以下的能力:
A. 對文本中單字邊界的意識。
B. 字母與聲音對應關係的意識。
C. 區分口語單字聲音的能力。
D. 運用音素融合技巧的能力。
B
The activity described in the scenario contributes to students’ beginning reading development by reinforcing their ability to distinguish the initial phoneme in a spoken word and to map that sound to print. By reinforcing letter-sound correspondences for the initial consonant in the target words, the teacher is promoting the children’s understanding of the alphabetic principle. Option A is incorrect because the representation of word boundaries in text is not explicitly addressed in the activity. Option C is incorrect because, while the activity highlights the beginning consonant of words, the teacher does not segment the words into individual phonemes. Option D is incorrect because the teacher does not demonstrate phonemic blending skills in this activity.

A. 對文本中單字邊界的意識。
B. 字母與聲音對應關係的意識。
C. 區分口語單字聲音的能力。
D. 運用音素融合技巧的能力。
A fourth-grade student who reads on grade level and consistently performs well on spelling tests that are part of weekly word study activities often misspells the same words, and other familiar words, in everyday writings. The following table shows examples of typical errors the student makes on class writing assignments and in informal notes to friends.
The student’s overall spelling performance suggests that the student would benefit most from a targeted intervention focused on which of the following foundational skills?
A. applying common orthographic rules to inflected words
B. sounding out and blending letter-sounds to decode a word
C. discriminating between consonant and vowel sounds in words
D. segmenting all the phonemes in a word sequentially
一位四年級學生的閱讀能力達到了年級水平,並且在每週詞彙學習活動中的拼字測驗中始終表現良好,但在日常寫作中,他經常會拼錯相同的單字和其他熟悉的單字。下表列出了該學生在課堂寫作作業和給朋友的非正式便條中常犯的一些錯誤。
該學生的整體拼字表現表明,針對以下哪項基礎技能進行有針對性的干預將使該學生受益最大?
A. 將常見的正字法規則應用於詞形變化
B. 拼讀並混合字母發音以解碼單字
C. 區分單字中的子音和母音
D. 依序分割單字中的所有音素
D
Option D is correct because the pattern of spelling errors typical in the student’s everyday writing—transposing letters (e.g., or in form; li in split) and omitting letters (e.g., r in printed and n in dependent)—coupled with the student’s strong performance in formal spelling assessments that include the same words suggest that the student over relies on memorization for spelling tests. Furthermore, the student’s performance suggests that they may not pay attention to the sound sequences of words when encoding in everyday contexts and may possibly lack automaticity in phonemic segmentation skills. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because neither the structure of the sample words nor the student’s spelling errors provide evidence that the student has difficulty spelling inflected words (A), blending letter sounds to decode words (B), or discriminating between a word’s root morpheme and affixes (C)
D
選項 D 是正確的,因為學生日常寫作中常見的拼字錯誤模式——字母調換(例如,form 中的 or;split 中的 li)和字母省略(例如,printed 中的 r 和 dependent 中的 n)——再加上學生在包含相同單字的正式拼字測驗中的優異記憶表現,表明學生在拼字測驗中過度依賴。此外,學生的表現表明,他們在日常語境中編碼時可能不注意單字的發音順序,並且可能缺乏音素分割技能的自動化。選項 A、B 和 C 不正確,因為樣本單字的結構和學生的拼字錯誤均未證明學生在拼字詞形變化詞(A)、混合字母發音解碼單字(B)或區分詞根詞素和詞綴(C)方面有困難。
A first-grade teacher administers a spelling assessment midway through the school year.Afterward, the teacher analyzes students’ spelling errors and categorizes the errors according to their most likely cause. Phonemic Awareness—The spelling error indicates difficulty perceiving all the sounds in words. Code—The spelling error indicates a code-based difficulty (i.e., mastery of specific phonics/morphemic elements and associated orthographic patterns). Several students in the class make spelling errors that primarily fall under the category of phonemic awareness. The students’ spelling development would benefit most from an intervention focused on promoting their ability to apply which of the following foundational skills?
A. identifying orally the onset and rime of a series of spoken words
B. substituting target phonemes in spoken words to create new words
C. segmenting sequentially all the phonemes that make up a spoken word
D. blending orally presented phonemes sequentially to produce a target spoken word
一位一年級老師在學年中期進行拼字評估。評估結束後,老師會分析學生的拼字錯誤,並根據最可能的原因對錯誤進行分類。音素意識-拼字錯誤表示學生難以理解單字中的所有語音。代碼-拼字錯誤表示存在基於代碼的困難(即掌握特定的語音/詞素元素以及相關的正字法模式)。班上有幾個學生犯的拼字錯誤主要屬於音素意識的範疇。如果進行一項幹預措施,重點是提高學生運用下列哪項基礎技能的能力,那麼他們的拼字發展將受益最大?
A. 口語辨識一系列口語單字的聲母和韻母
B. 用目標音素取代口語單字以創造新詞
C. 依序分割構成口語單字的所有音素
D. 依序混合口語呈現的音素以產生目標口語單字
C
Option C is correct because this intervention is appropriate for addressing a difficulty with phonemic awareness. Phonemic awareness is the ability to perceive individual speech sounds (phonemes) in words. At the first-grade level, spelling errors that fall under the phonemic awareness category most likely result from a student’s incomplete perception of all the phonemes in a spoken word or the sequence of those phonemes. Instruction focused on sequentially segmenting all the phonemes in spoken words would enhance the students’ accurate phoneme-grapheme mapping, or spelling. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because the phonological awareness skills targeted would not address the likely cause of the students’ difficulty, which is perceiving the constituent sounds in a word in the correct sequence. Option A targets phonological units larger than the phoneme. The phoneme-substitution activity in Option B does not promote awareness of all the phonemes in a word or their sequence. Phoneme blending (D) is essential for supporting beginning decoding instruction but would not directly address the students’ difficulty perceiving and sequencing all the phonemes in spoken words.
選項C是正確的,因為這種幹預措施適合解決音素意識的困難。音素意識是指感知單字中單一語音(音素)的能力。在一年級階段,屬於音素意識範疇的拼字錯誤很可能是由於學生對口語單字中所有音素或這些音素的順序感知不完整所造成的。專注於按順序分割口語單字中所有音素的教學將提高學生準確的音素-字素映射或拼字能力。選項A、B和D不正確,因為所針對的語音意識技能無法解決學生困難的可能原因,即以正確的順序感知單字中的組成音素。選項A針對的是大於音素的音系單位。選項B中的音素替換活動並不能促進學生對單字中所有音素或其順序的感知。音素融合(D)對於支持初級解碼教學至關重要,但不能直接解決學生感知和排序口語單字中所有音素的困難。
Which of the following students is demonstrating the specific type of phonological awareness known as phonemic awareness?
A. a student who, after being shown a letter of the alphabet, can orally identify its corresponding sound(s)
B. a student who listens to the words sing, ring, fling, and hang and can identify that hang is different
C. a student who, after hearing the word hat, can orally identify that it ends with the sound /t/
D. a student who listens to the word magazine and can determine that it contains three syllables
下列哪位學生展現了特定類型的語音意識,即音素意識?
A. 一位學生在看到字母表中的一個字母後,能夠口頭辨識其對應的發音。
B. 一位學生在聽到「sing」、「ring」、「fling」和「hang」這些字後,能夠辨識出「hang」的不同發音。
C. 一位學生在聽到「hat」這個字後,能夠口頭辨識出它以/t/的音結尾。
D. 一位學生在聽到「magazine」這個字後,能夠判斷它包含三個音節。
C
Phonemic awareness is the recognition that spoken words are made up of phonemes, the discrete speech sounds of a language. Identifying the final sound (or phoneme) in a word demonstrates phonemic awareness. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because the skills described, identifying the sound corresponding to a letter (A), recognizing rhyming words (B), and counting syllables in a word (D), can be performed without the ability to distinguish separate phonemes in a spoken word.

Several children in a kindergarten class have mastered orally blending sets of spoken sounds together to make words. Which of the following additional skills demonstrated by the children would best indicate that they are ready to begin instruction in decoding simple words?
A. identifying key parts of a book consistently, such as the front, back, and title, when prompted by the teacher and pointing to the first page
B. tracking print directionality with a pointer on a big book of a predictable text after the teacher models reading and tracking the text
C. identifying letter-sound correspondences consistently for several high-utility letters, such as a, m, t, and s, when prompted by the teacher
D. recalling the letters of the alphabet in sequence when prompted by the teacher using an alphabet banner and the alphabet song
在幼兒園班級裡,幾名兒童已經掌握了將一組語音組合在一起組成單字的口語技能。下列哪一項技能最能顯示他們已準備好開始學習解碼簡單單字?
A. 在老師的提示下,指向第一頁,能夠一致地識別書籍的關鍵部分,例如封面、封底和標題。
B. 在老師示範閱讀和追蹤文本後,用教鞭在一本可預測文本的大書上追蹤印刷方向。
C. 在老師的提示下,能夠一致地辨識幾個高效率字母(例如 a、m、t 和 s)的字母-發音對應關係。
D. 在老師使用字母橫幅和字母歌的提示下,能夠按順序回憶字母表中的字母。
C
Option C is correct because knowledge of letter-sound correspondences is a necessary component of the more complex skill of decoding words. When early readers learn to decode simple words, they must learn to sound out the letters of a printed word in sequence and blend those sounds together to read the words. Mastering high-utility letters (i.e., letters that they are likely to encounter in beginning reading instruction and in grade-level decodable texts) prepares children to develop the complex skill of decoding. For example, the group of letters a, m, t, and s, includes both high-frequency consonantsand a vowel, enabling a child who has mastered these letter-sounds to decode many simple, phonically regular words (e.g., sat, mat, at, am). Options A and B are incorrect because they describe foundational print concepts, book handling skills (A) and print directionality in English (B), respectively. Without letter-sound knowledge, these more basic skills are not sufficient preparation to support beginning decoding instruction. Option D is incorrect because memorizing the letters of the alphabet in order is not a component skill of decoding and thus not an indicator of readiness for decoding instruction.
選項C是正確的,因為字母發音對應關係的知識是更複雜的單字解碼技能的必要組成部分。早期閱讀者學習解碼簡單單字時,他們必須學會按順序讀出印刷單字的字母,並將這些發音混合在一起才能讀懂單字。掌握高實用性字母(即他們在初級閱讀教學和年級可解碼文本中可能遇到的字母)可以幫助孩子發展複雜的解碼技能。例如,字母a、m、t和s的組合包含高頻子音和元音,掌握這些字母發音的孩子能夠解碼許多簡單的、語音規則的單字(例如,sat、mat、at、am)。選項A和B是錯誤的,因為它們分別描述了基本的印刷概念、書籍處理技能(A)和英語的印刷方向性(B)。如果沒有字母發音知識,這些更基本的技能不足以支持初級解碼教學。選項 D 不正確,因為按順序記住字母表中的字母不是解碼的組成技能,因此不能作為解碼指令準備就緒的指標。
Which of the following statements provides the best rationale for incorporating spelling instruction into a first-grade reading program?
A. Spelling instruction promotes phonological sensitivity by teaching students to break words into onsets and rimes and recognize common phonograms.
B. Spelling instruction streamlines the reading process by focusing on a finite set of orthographic guidelines, which accelerates students’ reading development.
C. Spelling instruction facilitates students’ vocabulary development by introducing them to new grade-level academic words throughout the school year.
D. Spelling instruction reinforces students’ knowledge of phonics patterns, which supports their development of automaticity and ability to construct meaning while reading.
下列哪一項敘述最能說明將拼字教學納入一年級閱讀課程的必要性?
A. 拼字教學透過教導學生將單字分解為聲母和韻母並識別常見的表音符號來提高語音敏感度。
B. 拼字教學透過專注於有限的正字法指導來簡化閱讀過程,從而加速學生的閱讀能力發展。
C. 拼字教學透過在整個學年中向學生介紹新的年級學術詞彙來促進學生的詞彙發展。
D. 拼字教學強化了學生對語音模式的了解,這有助於他們發展閱讀時的自動化能力和建構意義的能力。
D
Option D is correct because evidence indicates that the development of spelling and phonics skills is reciprocal; when instruction in these two skill areas is aligned, development of each skill area is reinforced and enhanced. Thus, learning the spelling patterns of words reinforces phonics learning and supports development of automatic word recognition. Option A is incorrect because the phonological awareness skill of onset-rime segmentation precedes and contributes to students’ spelling development, not the reverse as stated in Option A. Option B is incorrect because spelling instruction does not focus on a finite set of orthographic guidelines. In addition, focusing on a finite set of orthographic guidelines would not streamline the reading process. Option C is incorrect because most words targeted in spelling instruction are not new to students but already part of their oral vocabulary.
選項 D 是正確的,因為有證據表明拼字和語音技能的發展是相互促進的;當這兩個技能領域的教學協調一致時,每個技能領域的發展都會得到強化和改善。因此,學習單字的拼字模式可以強化語音學習,並支持自動單字辨識的發展。選項 A 是錯誤的,因為聲母韻母分割的語音意識技能先於學生的拼字發展並有助於拼字發展,而不是像選項 A 所說的那樣反過來。選項 B 是錯誤的,因為拼字教學並不關註一套有限的正字法指導原則。此外,專注於一套有限的正字法指導原則並不能簡化閱讀過程。選項 C 是錯誤的,因為拼字教學中針對的大多數單字對學生來說並不陌生,而是他們口語詞彙的一部分。
In the years since the report by the National Reading Panel (2000) was published, evidence based research has conclusively documented that which of the following phonics approaches is most effective in promoting beginning readers’ reading and spelling development?
A. teaching students common phonograms or word families that share the same orthographic rime (i.e., ending letter sequence with a common pronunciation)
B. introducing students to printed words that are likely to be in their oral vocabularies to support them in making effective guesses based on a text’s context (e.g., the pictures)
C. providing embedded phonics or “phonics in context,” in which the teacher primarily offers support reading a word when a student cannot read a word in connected text
D. focusing on grapheme-phoneme correspondences, in which students are taught explicitly to sound out each letter or letter combination in a word and blend the letter-sounds together
自從國家閱讀小組(National Reading Panel,2000)發布報告以來,基於證據的研究已確鑿地證明,以下哪種語音教學方法最能有效促進初級閱讀者的閱讀和拼字發展?
A. 教導學生常見的音素或具有相同正字法韻律的字族(即以相同發音結尾的字母序列)。
B. 向學生介紹可能出現在他們口語詞彙中的印刷體單詞,以幫助他們根據文本上下文(例如圖片)進行有效的猜測。
C. 提供嵌入式語音教學或“語境語音教學”,即當學生無法閱讀連貫文本中的單字時,教師主要透過閱讀單字來提供幫助。
D. 注重字素-音素對應,即明確地教導學生讀出單字中的每個字母或字母組合,並將字母和發音融合在一起。
D
Option D is correct because evidence indicates that a synthetic phonics
approach to decoding instruction produces better phonemic awareness, reading, and spelling outcomes for beginning readers. Furthermore, explicit, systematic phonics instruction, as described in Option D, facilitates the development of more advanced code-based skills (Brady, 2020). Students not only develop skill in decoding specific words but also develop orthographic knowledge that facilitates more rapid decoding of unfamiliar words they will encounter in other texts (Ehri, 2014). Option A is incorrect because the approach described does not promote students’ attention to decoding all the letter-sounds in a word, which is essential to developing more rapid and accurate word recognition over time. Option B is incorrect because guessing words based on context is an inefficient and inaccurate strategy for recognizing words. In addition, it does not prepare students to read texts at higher grade levels, which will include fewer and fewer pictures. Option C is incorrect because embedded phonics instruction is not systematic and therefore not supported by evidence as an effective approach to promoting reading and spelling development among beginning readers.
選項 D 是正確的,因為有證據表明,採用合成語音教學法進行解碼教學,可以幫助初學者提高語音意識、閱讀和拼字能力。此外,如選項 D 所述,明確、系統性的語音教學有助於發展更高階的程式碼技能 (Brady, 2020)。學生不僅能培養解碼特定單字的技能,還能發展正字法知識,從而能夠更快地解碼在其他文本中遇到的不熟悉單字 (Ehri, 2014)。選項 A 不正確,因為所描述的方法並沒有促使學生注意解碼單字中的所有字母發音,而這對於隨著時間的推移培養更快、更準確的單字辨識能力至關重要。選項 B 不正確,因為根據上下文猜測單字是一種低效且不準確的辨識單字的策略。此外,這種方法也無法幫助學生為閱讀更高年級的文本做好準備,因為高年級的文本中包含的圖片會越來越少。選項 C 不正確,因為嵌入式語音教學不是系統性的,因此沒有證據支持其作為促進初學者閱讀和拼字發展的有效方法。
Which of the following sentences contains a pair of italicized words that differ from each other by one phoneme?
A. He took off his cap before he lay down to take a nap.
B. She walked down the lane to see the beautiful deep blue sea.
C. They were distracted by the noise as the window shade retracted.
D. After he bashed his toe, he sat down for a while and basked in the sun.
下列哪一個句子包含一對斜體單詞,且它們之間只有一個音素的差異?
A. 他躺下小睡前脫下了帽子。
B. 她沿著小路走下去,看到了美麗的深藍色大海。
C. 窗簾拉開時,他們被噪音分散了注意力。
D. 腳趾撞傷後,他坐下來曬了一會兒太陽。
A
Option A is correct because the words cap and nap differ only by their initial phoneme. A phoneme is a phonological unit of language—a discrete speech sound in a particular language that speakers of the language recognize as sufficient to distinguish between two phonologically similar but distinct words. For example, the speech sounds /k/ and /n/ are phonemes in English because native English speakers who hear the pair of spoken words cap and nap regard them as distinct words. Option B is incorrect because see and sea are pronounced the same way; that is, they contain an identical sequence of phonemes. Option C is incorrect because the two words differ by one morpheme (their prefix), but the prefixes differ by more than one phoneme. Option D is incorrect because bashed and basked differ in spelling by one letter, but they differ in pronunciation by two phonemes.
選項A正確,因為cap和nap這兩個字僅在首音素上有所不同。音素是語言的音系單位,指的是特定語言中一個獨立的語音,該語言的使用者能夠識別這些語音,從而區分兩個音系相似但不同的詞。例如,/k/和/n/這兩個語音在英語中是音素,因為英語母語人士聽到cap和nap這兩個詞時,會將它們視為不同的詞。選項B不正確,因為see和sea的發音相同;也就是說,它們包含相同的音素序列。選項C不正確,因為這兩個字只有一個詞素(字首),但字首卻有多個音素不同。選項D不正確,因為bashed和basked的拼字只有一個字母不同,但發音卻有兩個音素不同。
In which line in the table is the underlined portion of an example word accurately matched to the term that is used to describe that phonics element?
A. Line 1
B. Line 2
C. Line 3
D. Line 4
表格中哪一行範例詞的底線部分與描述該語音元素的術語準確匹配?
A. 第 1 行
B. 第 2 行
C. 第 3 行
D. 第 4 行
B
Option B is correct because the underlined phonics element in the word
scratch (tch) is a consonant trigraph. A consonant trigraph is a grapheme with three consonants that represents one phoneme (sound). The trigraph -tch is used to spell the /ch/ sound in the word scratch. Option A is incorrect because the underlined phonics element in the word real (eal) is not an l-controlled vowel. An l-controlled vowel is strongly colored by the sound /l/ (e.g., the vowel sound in the word pull) and is distinct from short and long vowel sounds frequently represented by the same vowel grapheme. Option C is incorrect because the phonics element underlined in the word stir (ir) is an r-controlled vowel, not a vowel team. A vowel team is a sequence of two or more letters that represent a single vowel sound (e.g., the letters oa in the word boat). Option D is incorrect because the phonics element underlined in the word mistake (st) is not a consonant blend in this context. The letter s is in the first syllable (the prefix mis-) and the letter t is in the
second syllable of the word (the base word take). A consonant blend is a sequence of two or more consonants either in the beginning or end of a single syllable (e.g., the letter sequence st is a consonant blend in the words stop and last).
選項 B 是正確的,因為單字 scratch (tch) 中帶下劃線的語音元素是一個輔音三字母組合。子音三字母組合是由三個子音組成的字素,代表一個音素(聲音)。三字母組合 -tch 用於拼寫單字 scratch 中的 /ch/ 音。選項 A 不正確,因為單字 real (eal) 中底線的語音元素不是左控元音。左控元音受 /l/ 音的影響很大(例如,單字 pull 中的元音),並且與經常由相同元音字素表示的短元音和長元音不同。選項 C 不正確,因為單字 stir (ir) 中底線的語音元素是一個右控元音,而不是元音組合。元音組合是兩個或多個字母的序列,代表一個元音(例如,單字 boat 中的字母 oa)。選項 D 不正確,因為單字 mis-(st)中帶底線的語音元素在本句中不是子音連綴。字母 s 位於第一個音節(前綴 mis-),字母 t 位於第二個音節(字根 take)。子音連綴是指兩個或多個子音的序列,它們位於單一音節的開頭或結尾(例如,字母序列 st 在單字 stop 和 last 中就是子音連綴)。
A second-grade teacher divides the class into small groups and provides a copy of the following instructions to each group. Students work collaboratively to complete the activity. Afterward, each group shares their results with the whole class during a teacher-led discussion.The activity and related discussion would best promote students’ ability to:
A. use semantic and syntactic clues to identify the meaning and pronunciation of homographs.
B. apply structural clues to decode and identify the meaning of printed words.
C. find and use synonyms for common words to expand their receptive and expressive vocabularies.
D. associate related vocabulary words and sort them into meaningful groups.
一位二年級老師將全班分成幾個小組,並給每組以下指示。學生合作完成活動。之後,每個小組在老師主導的討論中與全班分享他們的成果。這項活動及相關討論將最大程度地提升學生的以下能力:
A. 使用語意和句法線索來辨識同形異義字的意思和發音。
B. 應用結構線索解碼和辨識印刷體單字的意思。
C. 找出並使用常用字的同義詞,以擴展他們的接受性和表達性詞彙量。
D. 將相關詞彙關聯起來,並將它們歸類為有意義的群體。
A
Option A is correct because the activity in the box promotes students’ awareness of the characteristics that define a pair of homographs. Homographs are words that are spelled the same way but have different meanings. For example, the words saw, meaning the cutting tool, and saw, meaning the past tense of the verb to see, have different origins and meanings, but they are spelled the same way. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because drawing students’ attention to the fact that two words can be spelled the same way but have completely different meanings would not directly contribute to their understanding of structural analysis (B), synonyms (C), or semantic analysis (D).
選項A正確,因為方框中的活動可以促進學生對同形異義詞的特徵的認識。同形異義詞是指拼字相同但意義不同的字。例如,saw(表示切割工具)和saw(表示動詞「see」的過去式)這兩個字的字源和意思不同,但拼法相同。選項B、C和D不正確,因為讓學生注意到兩個單字拼字相同但意思完全不同的事實,並不能直接幫助他們理解結構分析(B)、同義詞(C)或語意分析(D)。
A second-grade teacher regularly reviews spelling patterns previously taught. The teacher also provides students with multiple opportunities to read and write connected text that features words containing the spelling patterns and to engage in word sorts comparing new and previously taught spelling patterns. These types of instructional activities are likely to promote students’ reading skills primarily by developing their:
A. skill in identifying and categorizing common word families by their rhymes.
B. accuracy and automaticity in reading words that follow the target phonics patterns.
C. automatic recognition of and fluent reading of texts containing high-frequency words.
D. knowledge of the meaning and usage of common, grade-level vocabulary words
二年級老師會定期複習之前教過的拼字模式。老師也會為學生提供多種機會,讓他們閱讀和書寫包含這些拼字模式的單字的連貫文本,並進行單字排序,比較新教的拼字模式和之前教過的拼字模式。這類教學活動主要透過以下方式提升學生的閱讀技能:
A. 辨識並分類常見詞族(依韻律)的能力。
B. 準確、自動地閱讀符合目標語音模式的單字。
C. 自動辨識並流利地閱讀包含高頻詞的文字。
D. 掌握常用、年級程度詞彙的意思和用法。
B
Option B is correct because reviewing previously introduced spelling patterns or phonics patterns, reading and writing words that feature those spelling/phonics patterns, and engaging in word sorts that compare new and previously taught spelling/phonics patterns not only contribute to students’ development of spelling accuracy, but also promote their automaticity reading words that contain the target spelling/phonics patterns. For example, word sorts encourage students to look at every grapheme in printed words, which promotes their reliance on phonics skills for word recognition, a key factor in building accurate decoding skills. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because the activities described promote students’ skill in categorizing word families (that is, words that share the same rime) (A) or reading high-frequency words (C), and they do not focus on developing students’ knowledge of the meaning or usage of words (D).
選項 B 是正確的,因為複習以前介紹過的拼字模式或語音模式,閱讀和書寫具有這些拼字/語音模式的單詞,以及參與比較新教和以前教過的拼字/語音模式的單字分類,不僅有助於學生提高拼字準確性,而且還能促進他們自動閱讀包含目標拼字/語音模式的單字。例如,單字分類鼓勵學生查看印刷單字中的每個字素,這促進了他們依靠語音技能進行單字識別,這是建立準確解碼技能的關鍵因素。選項 A、C 和 D 是錯誤的,因為所描述的活動提高了學生對詞族(即具有相同韻律的單字)進行分類的技能(A)或閱讀高頻詞(C),並且它們不注重培養學生對單字的含義或用法的了解(D)。
A first-grade teacher periodically administers spelling surveys to help assess students’ phonics knowledge. The following tables show one student’s performance on a spelling survey midway through the school year and again two months later. The student’s performance on the second administration of the spelling survey indicates that the student has progressed with respect to which of the following phonics elements?
A. initial and final consonants
B. long-vowel teams and diphthongs
C. consonant digraphs and blends
D. silent e and r-controlled vowels
一位一年級老師定期進行拼字調查,以評估學生的語音知識。下表顯示了一名學生在學年中期和兩個月後進行的拼字調查中的表現。該學生在第二次拼字調查中的表現表明,該學生在以下哪些語音要素方面取得了進步?
A. 聲母與韻母
B. 長元音組和雙元音
C. 輔音二合字母和混合音
D. 不發音的 e 和 r 控製母音
D
Option D is correct because the patterns of improvement across the assessments suggest that the student has learned two conventional spelling patterns, or syllable types. First, by correctly spelling star and turn in the second assessment, the student demonstrates progress in spelling words with r-controlled vowels. Second, by using the silent-e syllable type to spell the words drive and peach, the student demonstrates knowledge of the VCe conventional spelling pattern for long vowels. Although the student’s spelling of peach in the second assessment is incorrect, it nevertheless demonstrates progress in learning the silent-e syllable type commonly used in English. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because the student shows no change over time in the indicated spelling skills.
選項D是正確的,因為各項評估的進步模式顯示學生已經掌握了兩種常規拼字模式或音節類型。首先,透過在第二次評估中正確拼寫star和turn,學生展示了拼寫r控製元音單字的進步。其次,透過使用不發音的e音節類型拼字單字drive和peach,學生展示了對VCe長元音常規拼字模式的掌握。儘管學生在第二次評估中拼寫peach的拼寫是錯誤的,但它仍然表明學生在學習英語中常用的不發音的e音節類型方面取得了進步。選項A、B和C不正確,因為學生在所示拼字技能方面沒有隨著時間的推移而改變。
A third-grade teacher is planning differentiated reading instruction for an entering-level English learner who has grade-level reading skills in a language that uses the Roman alphabet. The teacher could best accelerate the student’s progress in reading English by using which of the following approaches?
A. providing instruction to promote the student’s development of the alphabetic principle by drawing explicit connections between oral and written language
B. supporting the student in identifying consonant sounds that both languages have in common while systematically teaching common English syllable types to introduce English vowel patterns and pronunciations
C. introducing systematic, explicit phonics skills to the student by showing the student how to sound out and blend the letter-sounds in simple English words
D. modeling how to use textual and graphic context clues to decode unfamiliar words in texts while providing the student with predictable, illustrated texts to use in practicing context as a word-identification strategy
一位三年級的老師正在為一位英語入門學生規劃差異化閱讀教學,該學生的閱讀能力已達到該年級水平,且該語言使用羅馬字母。老師可以透過下列哪一種方法最有效地加速學生的英語閱讀進度?
A. 透過明確口語和書寫語之間的聯繫,提供教學以促進學生對字母原則的發展。
B. 幫助學生辨識兩種語言中共同的子音,同時有系統地教導常見的英語音節類型,以介紹英語元音的模式和發音。
C. 透過向學生展示如何拼讀和混合簡單英語單字中的字母發音,向學生介紹系統、明確的語音技能。
D. 示範如何使用文本和圖形上下文線索來解讀文本中不熟悉的單詞,同時為學生提供可預測的、帶插圖的文本,以便學生練習將上下文作為一種單詞識別策略。
B
Option B is correct because the approach builds on the student’s knowledge of reading in the home language, which can accelerate the student’s progress in learning to read in English. The approach also includes explicit instruction in letter-sound relationships for English vowels, which are the phonemes most likely to differ between two languages that share the same alphabet. Introducing English vowel patterns and pronunciations by teaching common English syllable types is a systematic, explicit approach that aligns with evidence-based instructional practices for both English learners and students whose home language is English. Option A is incorrect because the student already has grade-level reading skills in an alphabetic language, which suggests that the student has developed insight into the alphabetic principle. Option C is incorrect because, at the third-grade reading level, the student will already be able to decode words in the home language, a skill that can transfer between alphabetic languages. Option D is incorrect, not only because this approach to word-identification is ineffective for promoting accurate decoding, but also because an entering-level English learner would not yet have the language skills to use context as a word-identification strategy in an English-language text.
選項B是正確的,因為方法以學生母語閱讀知識為基礎,可以加速學生學習英語閱讀的進度。此方法還包括對英語元音字母與發音關係的明確指導,而元音是兩種使用相同字母表的語言之間最容易產生差異的音素。透過教導常見的英語音節類型來介紹英語元音模式和發音是一種系統性、明確的方法,符合英語學習者和母語為英語的學生的實證教學實踐。選項A是錯誤的,因為學生已經具備了字母語言年級程度的閱讀技能,這表明學生已經對字母表的原理有了深入的理解。選項C是錯誤的,因為在三年級的閱讀水平上,學生已經能夠解讀母語單詞,而這項技能可以在字母語言之間遷移。選項 D 不正確,不僅因為這種字詞辨識方法對於促進準確解碼無效,而且因為入門級英語學習者還不具備在英語文本中使用上下文作為詞語識別策略的語言技能。
According to basic principles of evidence-based, systematic phonics instruction, which of the following common English letter combinations would be most appropriate for a first-grade teacher to introduce first?
A. ir
B. kn
C. th
D. oi
根據實證系統語音教學的基本原則,下列哪一種常見的英語字母組合最適合一年級教師首先介紹?
A. ir
B. kn
C. th
D. oi
C
In research-based, systematic phonics instruction, phonics elements are introduced according to their utility for beginning readers, and therefore according to their frequency of use in words appearing in primary-grades texts. Among the letter combinations given, th occurs most frequently in such texts and therefore is among the very first letter combinations taught. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because these letter combinations appear significantly less frequently in primary-grades texts than the letter combination th.
在以研究為基礎的系統化自然拼讀教學中,自然拼讀元素的引入是基於其對初級讀者的實用性,也就是根據其在小學課本中出現的單字頻率。在給定的字母組合中,th 在這些課本中出現的頻率最高,因此也是最早教授的字母組合之一。選項 A、B 和 D 不正確,因為這些字母組合在小學課本中出現的頻率明顯低於字母組合 th。
Which of the following principles is best illustrated by the words watched, wanted, and warned?
A. Spelling is often the best predictor of the pronunciation of a suffix.
B. Open syllables are usually pronounced with a long vowel sound.
C. The spelling of a suffix is often more reliable than its pronunciation.
D. The second letter of a consonant blend is usually pronounced as the onset of the following syllable.
下列哪一項原則最能體現「watched」、「wanted」和「warned」這幾個字的意思?
A. 拼字通常是預測後綴發音的最佳指標。
B. 開音節通常用長母音發音。
C. 字尾的拼字通常比其發音更可靠。
D. 子音組合的第二個字母通常發音為下一個音節的首字母。
C
The words listed all contain the regular past-tense inflection -ed. The ending is spelled the same way in all three cases, but the ending is pronounced differently in each word. In the word watched, the -ed ending is pronounced /t/. In the word wanted, the -ed ending is pronounced [ǝd]. In the word warned, the -ed ending is pronounced /d/. Option A is incorrect because the three words illustrate that a single spelling of the ending can be pronounced three different ways. Option B is incorrect because none of the words contain an open syllable and thus do not illustrate characteristics of open syllables. Option D is incorrect because the syllabication guideline given is relevant to only one of the words (the word wanted)
列出的單字都包含規則過去式的詞尾變形 -ed。這三個單字的詞尾拼寫相同,但每個單字的詞尾發音不同。在單字 watches 中,-ed 字尾發音為 /t/。在單字 wanted 中,-ed 詞尾發音為 [ǝd]。在單字 warning 中,-ed 詞尾發音為 /d/。選項 A 不正確,因為這三個單字顯示同一個字尾的拼字可以有三種不同的發音。選項 B 不正確,因為這三個字都不包含開音節,因此沒有說明開音節的特徵。選項 D 不正確,因為給出的音節劃分指南僅與其中一個單字(單字 wanted)相關。
