II. LANGUAGE

   Pronunciation
   Intonation in statements, commands, and lists

   💡Remember!
     • Intonation describes how a speaker's voice rises and falls in speech, and is very important in communication.
     • We usually use falling intonation at the end of statements and commands to show certainty.
     • When listing things, we slightly raise our voice on each item (level-rising intonation) and lower our voice on the last item to show that the list is complete.

1. Listen and repeat. Pay attention to the falling intonation

and level-rising intonation in the following sentences. 🎧

   1. Our class is going on a field trip next week.
   2. Put your rubbish in the bin!
   3. You can see beautiful caves , green valleys
