Well. For instance, some words in a sentence are stressed.The time between two of these stressed words is always about the same. No matter how many words there are.This is what makes English sound jerky. First you go very fast, and then perhaps you slow up.
嗯，例如，在一句话中的有些词是加重语气的,其中两个词间隔的时间总是几乎一样的。不论一句中有多少加重的词,这就使英语的音调显得不平稳。开始你说得很快，后来可能慢下来。

Sure, Here's a sentence we memorized for class. "You told me last night not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time."It takes just as long to say"not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time"as it does to say"you told me last night"
可以。这儿有一句我们在上课时应记住的话："You told me last night not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time。"在说"not to let you argue me out of getting you up on time"这段话的时间就和说"you told me last night"这句话一样长。
