发音要领：
这一对元音的关键是要把嘴唇拢小收圆，同时在发音的时候又要防止双唇阻碍气流泄出，也就是要防止加进一个辅音[w]。还需要注意的是[u:] 和 [u]不仅仅存在长短的差别，更重要的还有音调高低的差别，[u:]音调低，音程长，[u]音调高，音程短。
[u:]：舌身后缩，舌后部尽量向软腭抬起，舌尖离开下齿；双唇收圆并用力向前突出；长音，和英音[u:]音值相同。
容易出现的错误：在双唇之间发生摩擦，读作[wu], 或如汉语的“乌”一样。
[u]：舌身后缩，舌后部向软腭抬起，但舌位比[u:]稍低，是[u:]的对应短音；双唇收圆并稍稍向前突出，开口程度比[u:]略大；短音，和英音[u]相似
容易出现的错误：在单词中把[u]读得像汉语“哥”中的韵母一样，如“good”读作“哥的”。要注意到这个音是圆唇音。
