下面我们来作另外一组练习, 内容是说凯特向亨利说明她开车的时候并没有 在吃东西或是在打电话等等. 练习的作法是凯特先念一个句子, 接着你会听 到亨利说出一个动作, 比方 "打电话" making a telephone call 或是 "作白日梦" daydreaming 等等. 请你用亨利说的字或是词来代换原来句子里第一个动词.

每作完一句就请你听正确答案.

M: Henry watched television at home. The police officer gave Kate a ticket.

F: Henry was watching television while the police officer was giving Kate a ticket.

这组练习的内容是说当警察把罚款单给凯特的时候,别人都在作什么. 现在请 你注意听老师念句子, 并且在学生作句子的时候也一起作.

五.听短文回答问题

首先我们来听一篇文章, 内容是说在美国街道和公路上开车有什么限制,比方 要是有人开车超速, 警察就会写罚款单给他; 要是有人一连拿了好几张罚款 单就可能暂时不准开车等等.

现在请你注意听.

Many regulations govern drivers on American streets and highways. The most common ones are the speed limits. The speed limit regulates how fast a car may go.

On streets in the city, the speed limit is usually 25 or 35 miles per hour. On the highways between cities, the speed limit is usually 55 miles per hour. When people drive faster than the speed limit, a policeman can stop them. The policeman gives them pieces of paper which people call traffic tickets. Traffic tickets tell the drivers how much money they must pay. When drivers receive too many tickets, they probably cannot drive for a while.

The rush hour is when people are going to work or going home from work. At rush hour there are many cars on the streets and traffic moves very slowly. Nearly all American cities have rush hours. Drivers do not get tickets very often for speeding during the rush hours because they cannot drive fast.

刚才那篇文章你听懂了吗? 如果没全部听懂, 不要紧, 等一会儿我请英文老师 再念一遍给你听. 现在我们先来听今天测验的问题.

第一个问题是:

M: What are the speed limits on American streets and highways?

第二个问题是:

M: What will happen when people drive faster than the speed limit?

第三个问题是:

M: How is the traffic during the rush hour?

现在我请英文老师用慢速度再把整篇文章念一遍.
