第336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。
If you are still scrambling to finish income tax return before the final _1_ tomorrow, you're not alone. NPR's Craig Windham reports the Internal Revenue Service _2_ to receive 35 million returns following the final days before April 15.
如果你仍努力在明天的最后期限前完成所得稅申報表，那你并不孤單。據NPR新聞的克雷格·溫德姆報道，美國國稅局預計在4月15日最后期限前幾天會收到3500萬份申報表。
More than 90% of the nearly 100 million returns _3_ so far by the IRS have been filed electronically. That makes the process easier, but tax accountant Linda Domoller says return _4_ at the last minute tend to have more mistakes.
國稅局收到的近1億份申報表中，有超過90%的申報表是以電子方式提交的。這使過程更容易，但是稅務會計師琳達·多莫勒表示，在最后時刻提交的申報表通常錯誤也會更多。
"Why always tell people don't sign until you're sure and don't do anything _5_."
“所以我們才經常告訴民眾在你確定之前不要提交，做任何事情都不要著急。”
To buy more time, you can request automatic 6-month extension of time-to-file through the free file link at IRS.gov. But Domoller says you still need to pay any tax you own with extension request.
為了爭取更多時間，你可以在國稅局網站上點擊免費申報鏈接，要求自動延長長個月的申報時間。但是多莫勒表示，在延長申請期間你仍然要支付所得稅。
"Any amounts you don't pay on time, you could possibly be subject to penalty and definitely will be subject to the interests."
“如果你不按時支付金額，你可能會被懲罰，而且你的利益一定會受到影響。”
