精听建议:
先完整地把一条新闻听一到三遍,争取掌握大意。然后,一句一句精听,力争每句话都听明白。遇到实在不懂的地方,再听写。
下面的文本材料中空缺部分里面要填的词都很简单,不过是一些值得注意的连读或者典型的美式发音哦,有些语速比较快。试试看,你能不能全部写对?
(参考文本,欢迎指出错误^^)

The echoes which you have told about are very unusual. But in a small church in my hometown there is an echo more unusual 3 those.”
“What is so 4 about the echo there?” asked one of the men.
“Well, I'll tell you,” said Mark Twain. “The echo in that church is so unusual that if one asks in a 5 voice, ‘Good morning! How are you?’ the echo replies after a moment very clearly, ‘very well, thank you. And how are you?’”
