DictationBaseball 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 during the game, and there are many exciting plays. Many American families enjoygoing to a Sunday afternoon double-header, that is, two games between the same two teams in one day.翻译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。

Change the form where necessary.Interviewer: You mention the case of one whale helping to save another in an [emergency](1).

Read the following passage carefully until you have got its main idea, and then select one appropriate word for each gap from the box following the passage.Behavior is the way that animals act. For example, how do they get food or take care of their young? How do they find a place to live in or [protect] (1) themselves from danger? Much behavior is innate; that is, animals are born with it. [However] (2), animals learn much other behavior. There are several kinds of learned behavior.One simple [type] (3) of learned behavior is habituation. This happens when an animal learns to feel comfortable in a new [situation] (4) and doesn't pay attention to it anymore. For example, young horses are often afraid of noisy streets. But after a while, they learn to pay no attention to the normal [sights] (5) and sounds of a city.Another kind of learned behavior is conditioning. It is a way of learning by association —that is, by putting [together] (6) different ideas. In 1900, Ivan Pavlov, a Russian biologist, studied conditioning in dogs. Dogs innately salivate (produce liquid in the mouth) when they smell food. Pavlov [rang] (7) a bell every time he gave food to a dog. Soon the dog started to [associate] (8) the sound of the bell with the smell of food. After some time, it salivated when it heard a bell alone, [without] (9) food.Learning is important for all animals in a new [environment] (10).

Sounds too good to be true? Well, read on...How to Improve Your Study HabitsPerhaps you are an average student with averageintelligence. You do well enough in school, but you probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily the case, however. You can receive better grades if you want to. Yes, even students of average intelligence can be top students without additional work. Here’s how:1. Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule or chart of your time. Fill in committed time such as eating, sleeping, meetings, classes, etc. Then decide on good, regular times for studying. Be sure to set aside enough time to complete your normal reading and work assignments. Of course, studying shouldn’t occupy all of the free time on the schedule. It’s important to set aside time for relaxation, hobbies, and entertainment as well. This weekly schedule may not solve all of your problems, but it will make you more aware of how you spend your time. Furthermore, it will enable you to plan your activities so that you have adequate time for both work and play.2. Find a good place to study. Choose one place for your study area. It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library, but it should be comfortable, and it should not have distractions. When you begin to work, you should be able to concentrate on the subject.3. Skim before you read. Thismeans looking over a passage quickly before you begin to read it more carefully. As you preview the material, you get some idea of the content and how it is organized. Later when you begin to read you will recognize less important material and you may skip some of these portions. Skimming helps double your reading speed and improves your comprehension as well.· 1 ·你也许是个智力一般的普通学生。
