第8期Practice听说训练录音材料 Part A：Reading Aloud When you walk in the countryside, you will hear birds singing to each other, which means they communicate with each other. The best season to sing is spring and early summer. If you want to know different kinds of birds, you should know their songs. But not all birds sing their own songs. Some imitate the songs of other birds. A mockingbird may sing 1,000 different songs. But how does a bird know what to sing? Scientists think that some birds are born to sing and others learn to sing. When a young bird hears an adult bird singing, it may begin to sing the same song. Part B：Role Play M: Excuse me. Would you please help me? W: Certainly. What can I do for you? M: I am a newcomer here and I just arrived this morning. I would like to have a look at this beautiful city, so I came out of my hotel. The city is so wonderful that I have been wandering for an hour and then I find myself lost now. W: Oh, don’t worry. Do you still remember the name of the hotel? M: Oh no. I don’t remember it now. It sounds quite strange. W: Do you remember any signs of the hotel? For instance, what is next to the hotel or is there a bus station? M: Oh, yes, I remember there are many department stores nearby. Nothing else. |
