+# 2.2.2 <span class="pho">p/b</span>
+
+<span class="pho">p/b</span> 的发声动作一样，都是先把嘴唇闭合，而后用气流冲开嘴唇。<span class="pho">p</span> 没有声带振动，而 <span class="pho">b</span> 有声带振动。
+
+The pronunciation of <span class="pho">p</span> and <span class="pho">b</span> share the same mechanism, where the lips first close, then air pressure forces them apart. The difference lies in the vibration of the vocal cords: <span class="pho">p</span> doesn't involve vocal cord vibration, while <span class="pho">b</span> does.
+
+这两个辅音都会自然带有很轻微的 <span class="pho">ʊ</span> 的音色 —— 是气流冲开嘴唇自然产生的声音。
+
+Both consonants naturally have a slight <span class="pho">ʊ</span> sound, which is a byproduct of the air bursting past lips.
+
+中国学生在起初的时候常常分不清 *please* 和 *police* —— 可事实上，这两个词的区别很明显，区别很多：
+
+Chinese students often struggle to distinguish between *please* and *police* at first when learning English. But they are distinctly different, and with many differences:
+
+* *please* 只有一个音节：<span class="pho alt">pliːz</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/please-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/please-us-female.mp3"></span>，而 *police* 有两个音节： <span class="pho alt">pəˈliːs</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/police-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/police-us-female.mp3"></span>；
+* *please* consists of a single syllable: <span class="pho alt">pliːz</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/please-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/please-us-female.mp3"></span>, while *police* has two syllables: <span class="pho alt">pəˈliːs</span><span class="speak-word-inline" data-audio-us-male="/audios/us/police-us-male.mp3" data-audio-us-female="/audios/us/police-us-female.mp3"></span>.
+* 前者末尾的辅音是 <span class="pho">z</span>，后者末尾的辅音是 <span class="pho">s</span>；
+* The final consonant in *please* is a <span class="pho">z</span> sound, whereas in *police*, it's an <span class="pho">s</span> sound.
+* 最关键的，前者开头最多听起来是 <span class="pho">pʊ</span>，而后者不一样，是 <span class="pho">p</span> 和另外一个元音构成的音节： <span class="pho">pə</span>……
+* Most importantly, the initial sound in *please* might be heard as <span class="pho">pʊ</span>, but in *police*, it's different. It's a syllable composed of <span class="pho">p</span> and another vowel: <span class="pho">pə</span>...
