Submit in pdf format to Avenue by 11:00 pm, Wednesday February 8.
Question 1
(yes, this question is part of the exercise and counts for completeness)
Look back at the previous exercise and at the feedback on it. You can find the feedback
document in last week’s Avenue content, directly below the exercise document. How do your
answers compare with the feedback?
a. If you didn't do the exercise last week, which of the questions looks the hardest
to you? What questions do you have about the feedback?
b. If you did do the exercise, which questions did you get wrong? Which one was
the hardest? Do you understand the feedback?
c. If you did the exercise and all your answers match the feedback answers, write a
sentence here to indicate that.
Yes, my answers match the feedback answers.
d. If you still have questions, post them to the discussion board. No need to post if
you don’t have any questions.
Question 2
When you have a cold, you sometimes "lose your voice", meaning that it becomes very difficult
to talk. Using what you now know about the speech articulators, make a guess: what do you
think has occurred in your vocal tract that has made talking difficult in this case?
Your vocal cords become inflamed, swollen and irritated which causes loss of voice and
it usually temporary.
Question 3

sort them according to their pronunciation.
