How to read it

| short pause ‖ breathe
Words to stress correctly
| agriculture | AG·ri·cul·ture | /ˈæɡrɪkʌltʃɚ/ |
| establish | es·TAB·lish | /ɪˈstæblɪʃ/ |
| concerned | con·CERNED | /kənˈsɝnd/ |
| services | SER·vi·ces | /ˈsɝvəsəz/ |
| politics | POL·i·tics | /ˈpɑlətɪks/ |
43 words, aim for 17–20 seconds. There are no numbers to say. Take a breath after countries and after politics; use short pauses at the other commas so the long first sentence stays steady.
Where marks are usually lost
Stress AG·ri·cul·ture and POL·i·tics on the first syllable, but es·TAB·lish and con·CERNED on the second. Finish the plural -s in goods, services, countries, areas, issues and the -ed in needed, concerned. Don't slow down before agriculture — keep the rhythm.
General tip: the grammar near the end is odd ("when they concerned"); read it exactly as written without stopping to correct it.
