• /dʒə hæv ə ˈmɪnət/ （更口语化、轻松的语速）

Asking a Neighbor for Help
向邻居寻求帮助

Emma: Hey, John. Got a minute?
嗨，约翰。有空吗？
John: Hey, Emma. Sure, what’s up?
嗨，艾玛。当然，怎么了？
Emma: My car won’t start, and I need to get to the grocery store.

别客气。这就是邻居的意义。

说明

That’d 是 that would 的缩写。

在这句 “That’d be great.” 里，完整形式是：
That would be great.（那太好了 / 那真是太棒了）

口语里用 That’d（/ˈðæd/）更自然、更简短，美国人日常对话中几乎都会缩成这样。
如果是更正式的书面语，才会写完整的 That would。

Asking About Breakfast
询问早餐事宜

Guest: Good morning. I have a question about breakfast.
客人：早上好，我想问一下关于早餐的事。
Receptionist: Sure. What would you like to know?
接待员：好的，请问您想了解什么？
Guest: What time does breakfast start?
客人：早餐几点开始？
Receptionist: It starts at 6:30 a.m. and ends at 10 a.m.
接待员：早上六点半开始，十点结束。
Guest: Great. And where is it served?
客人：好的，那在哪里用餐呢？
Receptionist: It’s in the restaurant on the second floor.
接待员：在二楼的餐厅。
Guest: Do I need to make a reservation?
客人：需要提前预订吗？
Receptionist: No, you don’t. Just show your room key when you enter.
接待员：不需要，进餐厅时出示房卡就可以了。
Guest: Got it. Thanks for your help.
客人：明白了，谢谢你的帮忙。
Receptionist: You’re welcome. Enjoy your breakfast!
接待员：不客气，祝您用餐愉快！

说明

Do I need to make a reservation?
/du aɪ nid tə meɪk ə ˌrɛzərˈveɪʃən/
do 读成了完整的 /du/，没有弱读。

这就是一个很典型的现象：

• do 在陈述句里几乎一定弱读（/də/ 或 /du/ 很轻），
• 但在一般疑问句开头时，美式英语里很多人会读成相对完整的 /du/，尤其是正式、清晰、礼貌的场合，比如酒店前台、客服对话。
• 如果是在朋友间快速聊天，就很可能弱读成 /də/。

所以：

• 你给的音标是 清晰读法（完整 /du/）
• 如果要标注更口语化、日常随意的版本，可以写成 /də/
