发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
These words all share the final /ʊd/ sound of 'hardwood' (/ˈhɑrˌdwʊd/). Be careful with the spelling -ood: although 'wood', 'good', 'stood', and 'hood' are pronounced with /ʊd/, 'food' is pronounced /fuːd/, and 'blood' and 'flood' are pronounced /blʌd/ and /flʌd/, so they do not rhyme. Also, 'wood' and 'would' are homophones.
