VII. Dictation
Baseball is America's national sport, played mainly by men. It developed in the mid 19th century from the British games of rounders and cricket. Baseball is also popular in Japan and several Latin American countries, and has been an Olympic sport since in 1972. Softball is similar but uses a large, softer ball and is popular with women. Many Americans play baseball for fun because players do not have to be strong like football players or tall like basketball players. Some people think baseball is too slow, but the team managers often change their players and plans ring the game, and there are many exciting plays. Many American families enjoy going to a Sunday afternoon double-header, that is, two games between the same two teams in one day.

你能想像一个身体严重残疾的妇女独自经营一个网站并且像一个专业的体育记者一样详细报道洛杉矶道奇队吗?如果我没有亲眼见到她蜷曲在轮椅里,用固定在头上的一根棍子敲击字键打出她的评论,我是绝不会相信的。我长途驱车希望揭露一个精心策划的骗局,但是,看着她在黑暗的棚屋里添写她的报道,我知道我发现了一个真正的赢家。她对棒球的热情和她对球员的信赖使我回到了积极的态度。
Could you imagine a woman with a severe physical handicap running a website on her own and covering the Los Angles Dodgers as extensively as a professional sportswriter? I would never believe it if I had not seen her with my own eyes, curled up in a wheelchair, typing her comments by hitting the key with a pointer fastened to her head. I had driven a long way in hopes of uncovering an elaborate hoax, but watching her strain in the gloom of her shanty to add to her story, I knew I had found a true winner. Her enthusiasm for the game and her trust in the athletes brought me back to a positive attitude.

完形填空)就解决了。另外,语法知识和词汇是基础。

在全球范围内实行计划生育的困难之一在于,各国政府考虑到国家的工业发展水平以及可利用的食物和原材料,对人口控制采取了不同的态度。在一个发展中国家,如果急剧增加的人口对食物、空间以及自然资源造成巨大的压力,那么政府会不计后果,首先关注限制出生率。在一个高度工业化的国家,问题可能会更加复杂。出生率降低会导致失业,因为降低出生率会使制造品市场萎缩。当人口对住房的压力减少时,房价会降低,建筑业就会因此疲软。面对这样一些因素,发达国家的政府可能会希望本国的人口呈渐长趋势,而不是保持稳定或下降。
