Dear Xinhui There is a tool ("analign") for aligning British English phonetic transcription with audio within the SFS toolkit: http://www.phon.ucl.ac.uk/resource/sfs/ But it is a little tricky to set up. The HowTo at http://www.phon.ucl.ac.uk/resource/sfs/howto/transcribe.htm may help. Inside it just uses code borrowed from the Hidden Markov Model Toolkit HTK (http://htk.eng.cam.ac.uk/). So you might instead choose this to build a version specific to your requirements.
