[VOA听写] 2008-04-09

欢迎来到“杂乱的书桌”每天准时为你带来的VOA听写,本期的慢速VOA是世界健康日的新闻第一部分,标准VOA则是关于NCAA联赛的新闻的第二部分。还犹豫什么,赶紧和Hugh一起加入到学习英语,锻炼听写的队伍中来吧!

整天感觉今天的两篇难度都不是很大,相对来说标准VOA当中几个人名,以及采访过程中的话可能有一点困难。听得还是非常不错的!

昨天发现PR被清零了,开始以为是付费评论的问题,今天chada留言说可能是VOA的问题,我宁愿相信是前者。不过就算是因为VOA听写的原因,那我还是要继续听写下去。毕竟写博客不是为了Google写的,听写也不是为了Google听的。听写VOA,让Google惩罚去吧:-)

题目: Who Targets Climate Change for World Health Day 2008 (1/2)

专有名词: N/A

原文

Next Monday is World Health Day, observed by the World Health Organization. The objective chosen for this year is to get people involved in the campaign to protect against the health effects of climate change.

The World Health Organization is a United Nations agency. The W.H.O. says there is already evidence of health problems related to climate change. It says more people are dying from extreme heat, and that diseases spread by insects are also on the rise. And it says climate change has increased the risk of natural disasters, especially severe dry weather, wildfires, major storms and floods. Disasters like these can kill directly or indirectly. People can die or get sick from food shortages or conditions like the spread of disease.

Several years ago, the W.H.O. blamed climate change for 2% of diarea cases worldwide in the year 2000. Last month, researchers in Canada predicted that temperature increases there will spread insects like ticks and mosquitoes farther north. These insects can carry disease.

题目: Memphis, Kansas Advance to NCAA Baxketball National Championship (2/2)

专有名词: Jayhawks, North Carolina, Kansas, Brandon Rush, Donald Jackson, Syracuse, Alamodome

原文

The Jayhawks led by 17 at the break but North Carolina was able to come back to within 4 points. However Kansas never surrendered the lead. Kansas coach Bill Self says the semifinal was almost like 3 games.

“First game we were great, and second game we weren’t very good, and they were great . The last game you know obviously we played super down the stretch. But you know guys were in attack mood right for the outset, and I thought we just did a really good job of being aggressor early which set the tune for the game.”

Brandon Rush led the Jayhawks with 25 points, teammate Donald Jackson says that his team knows that beating Memphis will be tough.

“A lot of guys are talking about this and Coach Self has been doing a great job in helping us to stay focused, and telling us not to be satisfied. And we’ve been playing so hard as a team together and not playing selfishly, and now we’ve got an opportunity to make history at our Kansas.”

Kansas last went to the final in 2003, but the Jayhawks lost to Syracuse. Kansas and Memphis meet for the national title Monday night at the Alamodome.

  2. I don’t know why, but I keep hearing “super on the stretch” instead of “super on with stretch”.
    Is it me or?

    Thanks for your comment. I listened to it again, and I think it’s “super down the stretch”, right? this is a very comman phrase which you can find in sport news.
