Checkout what i just found. I have come across a program called the American Accent Audio Course that focuses on intonation, rhythm and timing and it is really helpful. You might also say something like- I think they also have a program that focuses on all of the sounds of American English.

Yes. When you explain something away, you give reasons which defend your behavior concerning
your fault or mistake; you justify yourself to someone.
