Generally of a Latin-based words are pronounced reasonably well with the voice synthesized speech. Read please 2003 free version uses Microsoft voice synthesizers. Read please does allow you to upgrade to Real Speak for about $25. It is a much natural sounding speech. You can try Textaloud that uses real speak.

My suggestion is to download Kurzweil 3000 trial CD provides you with a wide range of synthesized speech you can experiment with RealSpeak without a cost.
