Week 7

This week was devoted to the major stress. 
While I was listening to the audio again and again, the thought groups became clearer to me only when I started underlying the major stress there. I could hear that one word is longer and louder than others, so, on the basis of these louder words I was able to correct the thought groups that I haven’t noticed the week before. 
It was interesting to listen to my own recording then as well. I've noticed that my speech got so much more expression when I started practicing with the major stress! Finally, the ideas got the necessary accents of the important points.
Here is my recording from this week.
My plan for the week after the spring break is to practice more with the word stress as well. I need to pay more attention to the stress in the individual words, especially in the compound words.
