單元1. Tongue Twisters（趣味繞口令）
練習英文繞口令的目的，主要希望能增進口條，例如在「發音準確度」、「速率流暢」與「音調韻律感」等表現。此外，學習把字詞合理串在一塊，知道何時停頓、連音辨識，何時加重音調，以便掌握更有效的溝通技巧。
今天的繞口令主要練習："w"、"wh"、"ch"、"tch"。
If two witches were watching two watches, which witch would watch which watch?
逐步練習：符號「△」表示停頓；「-」表示連音。
If two witches△were watching△two watches△which witch△would watch△which watch
If two witches△were watching two watches△which witch△would watch which watch
