Practice Listening - New Season

Có 1 số điều cần lưu ý với các bạn như sau:

- International Partnership for Microbicides là tên 1 tổ chức mà các bạn toàn viết thường ko hà. Có 1 số người nghe ko ra từ cuối cùng, các bạn quên mất Maroon''s tips rùi hả (chắc chưa đọc, giờ mình cũng hổng nhớ nằm ở đâu nữa ^_^). Vào google gõ: International Partnership for M => tìm được ngay ^_^ (Maroon rất hay chơi trò này)
- ... could prevent an estimated: ai cũng sai chỗ ''''an'''', viết thành and hết (kể cả tui ^_^). Nếu để ý các bạn sẽ thấy điểm vô lý là and chỉ dùng để nối hai từ/cụm từ tương đương, tức n and n, hoặc v and v. Nếu bạn nghĩ câu đó là 2 đtừ thì cũng ko được vì prevent là nguyên mẫu còn estimated có -ed. Nhưng ở đây estimated là tính từ, ko fải động từ.
- human immunodeficiency virus: cái này khiến nhiều bạn bối rối vì nó quá dài, nhưng nó là cụm từ quen thuộc, hay dc viết tắt là H.I.V. Mà bài này chúng ta lại đang đề cập đến đúng vấn đề này. Lại áp dụng Maroon''s tips thui, google !!!
- southern Africa: nhiều bạn lầm tưởng đây là tên quốc gia nên viết hoa chữ southern. Thực chất cụm từ này có nghĩa là miền nam châu Phi. Còn tên nước Nam Phi là South Africa chứ bộ. Các bạn lưu ý nhé ^_^

Using the ?~Wisdom of Crowds?T to Tell the Future

I am newbie
I?Tm Duck Johnson with VOA?Ta Special English Economics Report. Intrade is the trading exchange for politics current events and all sure to vote future happenings. It is similar in someway to a future market but its contracts are only for small amounts and they do not offer price protection. Instead, intrade can be seen as a place to test the wisdom of crowds. The wisdom of crowds is the name of a 2004 book by James Wicky. He argues that large groups often make better decisions than a few experts. Intrade is cre***ed, for example, with correctly choosing how all fifty states would vote in American Presidential Election last year. Still, the Irish company that owns intrade and two other websites recently got into trouble in the United States. On October 4th, a Federal Agency settled the case with the trade exchange network limited. The commo***y?Ts future trading commission found that the company has offered some kinds of contracts then buy the Agency. The company did not admit or deny it but agreed to pay a fine of 150,000 dollars. Commo***y futurê?Ts involved widely traded goods: wine, oil, ?, energy, and gold. Future trading requires two kinds of trader. One wants to protect against price changes, the other wants to profit from them. It can be highly complex but imagine a farmer is worried about soil bean prices. The farmer thinks prices will rise in the future but has a crop to sell now. Say the current price is 5 dollars per ? The farmer can purchase the contract to buy, yes buy, fifty thousand ? of soil bean after current price but not for 3 months. In 3 months, the market price is 6 dollars. The farmer can now use the contract to buy the soil being at 5 dollars a ... The farmer did not get the fifty thousand ? Instead, the farmer gets fifty thousand dollars, the difference between the market price and the contract price. How? Well, the seller of the contract for soil being prices would go down. When the price went up, the seller was responsible for the full market volume. Have prices dropped, the farmer would have lost only the money to buy the contract, a small part of the full volume. All buying and selling on a future exchange takes place through a single organization, a clearing house. Real goods are really exchanged only money.

Cám ơn "thầy giáo" Sabomer nhiều nhe. Bài đó lại bị sai mấy chữ "the" rồi, nhưng tui thích bài tập đó (I think it''s very educational and informative. It also sounds very promising...)
Cũng xin cám ơn bạn nào sẽ bỏ thì giờ sửa bài cho mình lần này.

And they do not offer price protection. Instead, Intrade can be seen as a way to test the ?oWisdom of Crowds?. The ?oWisdom of Crowds? is the name of a 2004 book by James Surowiecki.

Commo***y futures involve widely traded goods like oil, grain, energy and gold. Future trading requires two kinds of traders. One wants to protect against price changes. The other wants to profit from them.
It can be highly complex. But, imagine a farmer is worried about soybean prices. The farmer thinks prices will rise in the future, but has a crop to sell now. Say, the current price is 5 dollars a bushel. The farmer can purchase a contract to buy, guess, buy fifty thousand bushels of soybeans at the current price, but not for 3 months. In three months, the market price is 6 dollars. The farmer can now use the contract to buy the soybeans at 5 dollars a bushel. The farmer does not get the fifty thousand bushels. Instead, the farmer gets fifty thousand dollars, the difference between the market price and the contract price.
How? Well, the seller of the contract thought soybean prices would go down. When the price went up, the seller was responsible for the full market value. As prices dropped, the farmer would have lost only the money to buy the contract, a small part of the full value. All buying and selling on a future exchange takes place through a single organization, a Clearinghouse. Real goods are rarely exchanged, only money.

Thật là một ngạc nhiên thú vị. Cá vàng cảm ơn bạn Thiên Vương nhiều nhiều lắm, đã mất công sửa bài cho tui mà lại còn kèm theo bài dịch. Công nhận là có bài dịch thì tui có sáng ra thêm một số vấn đề. Cho tui mời bạn ly beer giải khát:
Nói thiệt, bà con đừng cười nhá. Tui không có căn bản mấy cái vụ mua bán này. Nào giờ tui có biết mấy cái công ty hay cơ quan đó là gì đâu. Nghe được mấy chữ nhưng vẫn còn rất lùng bùng. Ngay cả cái chữ "banned" nghe 5 lần mà không ra, đành phải phang vô chữ "than" mặc dù biết nó quái quái thế nào í. Còn cái chữ futures (có s) mới lạ nhỉ.
PS: Cái kiểu trao đổi hàng hoá mua bán này sao giống... đánh bài cào quá. Tui không thấy thoải mái với cái kiểu này. Không biết bà con nghe xong có thấy thế không?
Bạn Thiên Vương, Công nhận là bạn dịch nghe êm tai thiệt. Bạn có bằng Finance bên Mỹ hả?

Tớ thì lại nghĩ rằng bản dịch của Thiên Vương nghe cổ quá, có 1 số từ cũ hiện giờ không dùng nữa (từ được phiên âm theo tiếng Trung Quốc ngày xưa), ví dụ như Ái Nhĩ Lan và Mỹ kim. Đó là những từ cổ chỉ ngày xưa người ta mới dùng. Còn bây giờ tớ nghĩ là sẽ dùng từ Công ty Ai-len và đô la Mỹ, nghe như vậy sẽ gần gũi hơn.
