自然拼读管到哪儿为止

自然拼读到底管多少?遇到 said、one、of 的时候呢?

Copy the prompt, then pick a model. It plays the interviewer and asks you through it scene by scene instead of handing you the answer.

On a phone with the app installed, the system opens the app directly. Links cannot open external apps inside WeChat — open it in a browser first.

The copied text ends with the answer key the model grades you against. Don't read it yourself first — working it out on your own is the point.

「学了自然拼读就能见词就读」是个半真半假的说法。它大概管七八成 —— 而剩下的那部分恰恰是最高频的那些词,这不是巧合,是有原因的。

知道边界很重要:不知道的人一遇到例外就怀疑「是不是我学错了」,然后放弃整套方法。

最后一幕会给你五个造出来的假词让你读。读得出来说明规则内化了;要想很久说明还在背规则。

Nobody has written yet. After you run it, say what came out of the conversation — which scene stumped you, which conclusion you changed afterwards.

How to use this

This set teaches rather than interrogates: it guides you instead of pressing until you have nothing left to say. When you're stuck it first asks which layer you're stuck at (never heard of it / know it but not why / know why but can't use it), then decides what to give. Only after guiding you twice will it spell it out — and then it asks you to say it back in your own words.

**Not sliced by the textbook's table of contents.** "The 26 letters" is not about reciting the alphabet; it's about the handful of things you actually have to master before that piece is done — and that list is the answer key. Topic choice targets first-language interference: Chinese marks no tense, has no articles, and its pinyin is a one-to-one sound system. Those three facts dig the deepest holes.

How to start

  1. Pick one, open it, copy the prompt.
  2. Paste it into a brand-new conversation, say nothing, and wait for its first question.
  3. Say things out loud rather than only in your head. The speaking one runs entirely in English — you may ask for help in Chinese, but it keeps count.

Four commands you can call out at any time

  • 跳过 move to the next scene now
  • 换个说法 explain this bit again from another angle
  • 直说吧 spell the answer out, then make me say it back
  • 复盘 jump to the wrap-up and print the review card

Three traps

  • Don't read the answer key at the end first. **The speaking one is the exception** — it has no answer key, only a scoring rubric, and that rubric is meant to be read first: if you don't know what's being looked at, you don't know what to practise.
  • Don't let it write your sentences. Cut it off when it offers you a whole line — a ghostwritten sentence is one you still won't be able to produce next time.
  • When it starts praising you, point it back to the "don't praise me" rule. Guiding is not coddling.

Starting from zero: the letters, then phonics. Can read and write but freeze when speaking: go straight to the speaking one and find out which dimension is weakest. Keep being told your writing sounds off: the perfect tense and the articles. The speaking one is worth repeating, with a different topic each time.
