第八十期：主餐一道：泛聽練習
以下段落是摘自新聞里的一些重要信息,并不是一個段落的聽寫。空內信息可在本新聞中全部找到,大家可以根據這些信息復述新聞。
一、泛聽建議：
1、完整聽一遍，掌握大意。
2、繼續聽，特別注意關鍵信息。遇到相似的詞，寫下來。
3、復述新聞。
The Obama Administration is beating up the nation's missile _1_ on the west coast.Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel says the move follows threats from Iran and North Korea.Chuck:North Korea particular has recently made advance in its capabilities and _2_ a series of irresponsible and reckless provocations .
奧巴馬政府正在重新評估在西海岸的國家導彈防御系統。國防部長查克·哈格爾表示此舉來自伊朗和朝鮮的威脅。查克說道:“特別是朝鮮最近其能力的提升及一系列的不負責任和不計后果的挑釁。”
Hagel says 14 additional interceptors will be added to the 30 already in place in California and Alaska to shoot down incoming missiles.President Obama says Iran is only about a year away from being able to build a nuclear weapon.He _3_ the estimate for the first time in an interview with Israeli television ahead of next week's visit to Israel.As NPR's Tom Gjelten reports the prediction coincides with others made recently by technical experts.
哈格爾稱將在加州和阿拉斯加已經到位的30個攔截器中額外增加14個打擊來襲的導彈。奧巴馬總統表示伊朗離能夠制造核武器還有大概一年左右的時間。他在下周訪問以色列接受以色列電視臺采訪時將做出第一次這樣的評估。正如NPR新聞的湯姆·古萊頓所報道的，這樣的預測與最近由技術專家們做出的一致。
"For Iran to build a nuclear weapon it would need a stockpile of uranium _4_ to weapons-grade purity.It doesn't have that stockpile right now.The US Intelligence Community this week in its annual assessment to global security threats reported that Iran in the last year became better _5_ to produce that weapons-grade uranium should it choose to do so.
“伊朗將需要鈾濃縮儲備來制造高純度武器。目前這個國家沒有這樣的儲備。本周美國情報部門在其全球安全威脅的年度評估報告中指出伊朗在去年可以制造高純度武器級別的鈾,應該選擇這樣做。
But it fell to the president to actually say how long it would take, a year or so would give the US and Israel time to reveal options should they want to block any bomb-building effort in Iran.In his interview with Israeli television Obama said obviously we don't want to cut it too close.Tom Gjelten, NPR news, Washington.
但對于它的失敗實際上是總統表示需要多長時間,而一年左右會給美國和以色列時間來阻止任何伊朗制造核彈的選擇。在接受以色列電視臺的采訪中奧巴馬表示顯然我們不想太過接近。NPR新聞, 湯姆·古萊頓，華盛頓報道。
