Wherever you run into it, prejudice always obscures the truth.

語音講解

今日發音練習重點：

1. wherever 連讀帶出/r/音

2. obscures /b/音不爆破

言之有物

1. wherever=no matter where 無論什麼地方

很多時候兩者可以替換：

Wherever you go, I'll follow you.

No matter where you go, I'll follow you.

Wherever he went, he took his dog with him.

No matter where he went, he took his dog with him.

no matter where用法不及wherever廣泛：no matter where只能引導讓步狀語從句；wherever既可以引導名詞性從句又可以引導讓步狀語從句。

√ I'll go no matter where you go.

✗ I'll go no matter where you want.

√ I'll go wherever you want.
