A student asks一句。我向毛主席保证，不，向Harper，也不对，算了。我个人觉得没有刻意连读，也没有完全省略t发音。
为什么探长觉得没有t了呢？我理论水平有限，又不是native speaker，所以只好求助于internet. Here is what I found:
First, when a t sound is the final sound of a word, it gets linked into the sound that follows it, which makes it hard to hear.
Secondly, when t is the final sound of a word and not getting linked to another sound, it is not fully aspirated, meaning we don't have as big of a puff of air when we release the stop, so it is harder to hear.
具体出处请看link. 具体在第５段 （Today ...). 此讲其实讲的是omit t的，我摘的是其中顺带提及的，正好符合我们探讨的一点。
