汇聚百名老外声音,汇编万千英语素材
天天新鲜听力语料,百听不厌练就听说
超强英语真功夫,从“无忧听写”开始
学习建议
宋德伟老师经过多年的研究和实践,开发了一套“一站式”的听写录音模式:录音中分别包含了听写四个步骤的录音。学习者只要在开始时按一次录音播放键,就可以在录音的引导下,一气呵成完成整个听写练习。期间不需要学习者进行任何按键操作,只需要他把全部的注意力都放在听写任务本身,真正做到无忧听写。
第一遍录音:整体朗读,要求学习者不看原文,只听录音,试着去把握录音内容的整体大意。
第二遍和第三遍录音:以句子或意群为单位,分解式朗读,朗读之后都有8~10秒钟的停顿。要求学习者一边听录音,一边把听到的内容写到空白练习纸上。
第四遍录音:整体朗读,要求学习者一边听录音,一边对照自己的听写文本,查漏补缺。

Each year around 10, 000 tourists visit three small villages along the Thailand and Myanmar border to see the famous long-necked women. The attraction is a tradition that women are required to stretch their necks by wearing brass rings as a mark of beauty and tribal identity. Originally from the Pa Daung tribe, the women and their families have been running from Myanmar to Thailand since the 1980s to escape poverty and war. Their new lives are very different from their farming lives in Myanmar. Now they spend their days talking with tourists, posing for pictures, and selling handmade souvenirs.
When a Pa Daung girl turns 5, a thick ring of brass is wrapped around her neck. At different times in her life, more rings are added until her neck carries up to 25 brass rings, weighing 11 to 22pounds. The rings push up her chin and press down her collarbone, making her neck longer.
Pa Daung women in Thailand continue to wear the rings regardless of the discomfort even though the tradition has almost disappeared in Myanmar. “Because there’s money in it,” Ma Nang, a graceful woman with 24 neck rings explained when asked the reason.
