Most of us just spend all of our time dwelling on all the what-ifs and just looking for all the reasons why things could never work out.

语音讲解：

今日发音练习重点：

1. most of us 词间连贯，of us 弱读，注意读得短轻快；

2. just spend all of our 注意词间连贯技巧，just的/t/省音，/s/同化；

3. dwelling on 词间后鼻音和元音连读，同时注意dwell/dwel/的词首辅音连缀/dw/之间不要带出其他不存在的音。
