发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
All these words share the final sound with the -fill part of landfill and rhyme with one another: fill and refill end in /fɪl/, while bill, hill, will, and pill end in /ɪl/. None of them rhymes with the whole landfill, whose main stress is on the first syllable (land-). Beware the spelling lookalike file /faɪl/—it looks like fill but has a different vowel.
