單元1. Tongue Twisters（趣味繞口令）

練習英文繞口令的目的，主要是能增進口說時：「發音標準」、「流暢度」與「韻律感」。學習合理的把字詞串組在一塊，何時停頓，何時加重音量，以便掌握更有效的溝通技巧。

今天的繞口令主要練習：字詞串組、流暢度。

When a doctor doctors a doctor, does the doctor doing the doctoring doctor as the doctor being doctored wants to be doctored or does the doctor doing the doctoring doctor as he wants to doctor ?

逐步練習：符號「△」表示停頓。

When a doctor△doctors△a doctor

does the doctor△doing the doctoring doctor△as the doctor being doctored△wants to be doctored△

or does the doctor△doing the doctoring doctor△as he wants to doctor

中譯：當醫生給醫生看病時，醫生是按照被看病的醫生想要看病的方式看病，還是按照他想要看病的方式看病？
