I heard the pronounce of affect and effect, and English sound is different but American sound is the same.
I should distinguish those two in context?

Don't worry, most Americans don't know the difference between effect and affect.
I will get you a coffee, means I will go to 7/11 and buy a cup of coffee, and bring it to you.
I will get your coffee, means you already have a cup of coffee, it is on your desk getting cold, I will bring it to you.

Most Americans pronounce "affect" (verb) and "effect" (noun) the same way, as "UH-fect."
Some Americans do pronounce "effect" with a very slight "EH" sound, so it's a little more like "EH-fect," but the difference is hard to hear. And Phil is right -- most Americans confuse the two words.
On a side note: When "affect" is used as a NOUN, it's pronounced as "AA-fect" (with the same A sound as is "cat" or "back"). When "effect" is used as a VERB, it's usually pronounced more like "EH-fect." These usages are much more rare, though.
