内容正文:
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。

Paul Lucas can often be seen walking barefoot around the city of San Francisco. People are sometimes surprised to see him walking without any shoes or socks, but Lucas doesn’t mind at all. He likes to walk barefoot, and so do 640 other members of Dirty Sole Society, the club that Lucas started. Lucas’ idea for this is to encourage others to live freely—free of shoes.
According to Lucas, the barefoot life. has many advantages. The most important is simply that it feels good. He also says that walking barefoot allows you to experience the world directly by touching it with your feet. In addition, the feet do not smell as much because they stay dry, making it hard for bacteria to grow. And, of course, walking barefoot keeps your feet in good shape, so it’s actually healthier than wearing shoes.
Some store owners think bare feet are unclean, so they don’t let shoeless customers come into their stores. But Lucas says that it is not against the law to go barefoot in stores or restaurants. The rules against bare feet are made by the store owners themselves, who seem to be worried more about appearance than about health.
While it is true that the feet become dirty, the habit of walking barefoot is both enjoyable and healthy. There are some dangers, though. Members of the Dirty Sole Society should always remember to be careful of broken glass and sticky chewing gum.
