Quiz - AP1 Midterm Oral Exam

This document provides instructions for an AP1 midterm oral exam focusing on pronunciation. It includes 10 sentences for students to read out loud, paying special attention to vowel contrasts and alternations between specific vowels. The goal is to produce clear vowel contrasts and fit speech into a smooth, natural rhythm. Example contrasts include [iy] - [ɪ], [ɪ] - [ɛ], and [ǝ] - [ɑ]. Students are evaluated on their ability to distinguish alternating vowels in clusters and words like "earth" and "alternation" in sentences related to minerals, robots, bats, ducks, and a suspect's stolen robes.
