精聽建議：

先完整地把一條新聞聽一到三遍，爭(zhēng)取掌握大意。然后，一句一句精聽，力爭(zhēng)每句話都聽明白。遇到實(shí)在不懂的地方，再聽寫。

下面的文本材料中空缺部分里面要填的詞都很簡(jiǎn)單，不過(guò)是一些值得注意的連讀或者典型的美式發(fā)音哦，有些語(yǔ)速比較快。試試看，你能不能全部寫對(duì)？

（參考文本，歡迎指出錯(cuò)誤^^）

When King Edward finished his conversation with the King of Sweden, he turned to his little grandson and said: "Now, my little man, 5 ?”“Oh, it doesn't matter now,” answered the little boy.“I just wanted to tell you there was a slug on your lettuce, but you've eaten it now.”
