    CONTRASTS, HIGH KEY INFORMATION

    º 1.1. First listen to this conversation and try to answer the questions

    1. SENSITIZATION

    a) Why is Tony fed up?

    b) What seems to be his immediate problem?

    1.2 Now listen again to this short extract from the beginning of the conversation.

    The parts, which are spoken at a pitch level, are shown in the transcript below.

     

    John: SO, it was ALL a huge suc CESS?

     
     


    TAS tic!

    Pat: If was fan

           
     
       
     


    LOOK

    John: Hey, There's Tony. He LOOKS a bit fed UP. TO ny. HEY, TO ny.

    Tony: OH, hel THOUGHT you were in PAR is.

    LLO, JOHN. PAT, I

     

    was. I've been

    Pat: Well, I BACK a few DAYS now.

    John: How ARE you, Tony? And how's your precious SPORTS car?

    SEEN it.

    Tony: Don't TALK to me about it. I WISH I'd never

    TONY. It's a LOVEL y

    Pat: Oh little car.

     

    NOT

    Tony: It's you know.

     

    a) In each case look carefully at what is said immediately before and after the part spoken with raised pitch.

    b) There is a connection in meaning between what is said with raised pitch and what the speaker or someone else says in the immediate context.

    Can you say what the connection is?

    º 1.3 Now listen to the rest of the conversation again and try to find other places where the speakers raise the pitch level of their voices. Mark them in me transcript below using arrows () as you saw in 1.2.

     

    John: Exactly. I remember. I told you at the time I was a bit suspicious. But you didn't listen.

    Tony: Yes, I did. I thought I was lucky for once.

    Pat: You were lucky, Tony. Last time I saw you, you said it was so reliable...

    Tony: Well, Yes. If seemed reliable. For a month or so. But since then it's been at the garage more

    than on the road.

    John: So, where is it now?

    Tony: At the central garage. I'm hoping to pick it up first thing tomorrow.

    John: They are expensive there.

    Tony: Actually, they are not. But they are not efficient, either. It was supposed to be ready on

    Monday.

    Pat: Monday! But tomorrow's Thursday. Come on, cheer up, Tony.

    Tony: Not necessarily. Every time I go or Ring they've found something else that needs doing. Last weekend was bad enough without it. But this weekend it's really important. Samantha said...

     

    2. EXPLANATION

    When speakers raise the pitch of their voices to a high level they do so on a prominent syllable and we say they are using High Key. They use High Key to express things they consider to be contrary to what their hearers expect. These things contrast with something which has already been said or implied, or with something which is implicit in the context.

    There are three kinds of contrasts we often hear:
