【NPR边听边练】致力于提供新鲜有趣、饶有意味的时讯资料,致力于通过精听的方式促进听力提高,致力于不断开阔眼界和深入了解美国观点。

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^^)

My mother made her own clothes and all my sisters' prom and wedding dresses. I always knew when she was making something, because she ___5___ or humming. She sang all the way through her home correspondence courses in floral design and interior decorating.
