Words to stress correctly

Where marks are usually lost
Stress sci·en·TIF·ic and sit·u·A·tion on the third syllable, dis·EA·ses, ex·AM·ined, dis·CUSSED on the second, FOL·low·ing on the first. Keep -s on links, diseases, sections, gives, trends, and -ed on examined, discussed.
General tip: the first subject runs 18 words before the verb is — keep the pitch level until then so the listener knows the sentence isn't finished.
