发音与拼写Pronunciation & Spelling
All six words share the final /aɪs/ sound, matching the final syllable of 'sacrifice' (pronounced /sækrəfaɪs/). They also share the spelling chunk 'ice'. However, be cautious: words like 'office' (/ˈɔːfɪs/) and 'surface' (/ˈsɜːrfɪs/) end with '-fice' but have a different vowel sound (/ɪs/ rather than /aɪs/).
