Sentence Stress in English Pronunciation - Hikari Shimizu

 I did not know that if I focus on stressed words while listening, I can understand meaning of sentences more easily. I learned that I can emphasize some words of question what I want to get an answer depending on which word I put stress on, so I want to use this method in daily conversation with my friends and host family.

    I also think sentence stress is useful when I listen to English. It will help us to recognize what others try to tell us in English.

If there was no CCTV camera around the city, there might be a lot of crimes. For example, in the supermarket, it could be much easier to stole the stuffs.
