Practice Listening

Để nghe có hiệu quả, theo Maroon thì bạn nên nghe cả bài một lần (tất nhiên là bấm pause để còn chép lại). Bởi vì nghe như thế bạn sẽ nắm ý của toàn bộ nội dung giúp cho việc đoán ý dễ hơn. Chỗ nào chưa nghe ra bạn để ... một lát nghe xong quay trở lại.
Nghe lại lần thứ hai, chắc chắn mọi thứ sẽ khác nhiều.
Đừng nghe đi nghe lại một câu hoài bởi vì chỗ đó bạn đã gặp khúc mắc rồi, dù cố nghe cũng kg thể nghe ra được. Bạn cứ nghe tiếp vì có thể ở đoạn sau, cụm từ đó được sử dụng trong một ngữ cảnh khác và có thể giúp bạn nhận diện nó.
Đó là kinh nghiệm của mình.

Cám ơn sự gợi ý của bạn Maroon.
Hy vọng sau khi tham gia vào chủ đề này của bạn thì khả năng nghe của tôi sẽ khá hơn.
thanks!!!!

There are more warnings about the need to prepare for possibility of a worldwide outbreak of bird flu.

Delegates from more than 20 countries discussed a plan, (kg có dấu phẩy, chỗ này vốn có từ which đã được giản lược) they hope might contain the early spread of any influenza pandemic.
WHO western pacific director Shigeru Omi says containment alone is not enough. He says all the possible options must be used. That includes doing more to watch for the risk of person-to-person infection.
Dr Omi also says some countries need to be more open about reporting infections in animals and people. He did not say which countries.
The WHO says about 1,500.000.000$ (nếu sử dụng ký hiệu thì phải để ở phía trước con số, để sau là sai, còn kg thì cứ viết ra chữ) will be needed over 3 years to prepare for a pandemic. A meeting next week in Beijing will deal with how to pay for it. The world bank has just offered 500.000.000 $.
The current outbreak of bird flu began in Southeast Asian in December of 2003, leading to about 80 deaths. Health officials say the victims have been mostly young people, (kg có dấu phẩy, chỉ sử dụng dấu (,) trong trường hợp mệnh đề bổ nghĩa có thể lược bỏ đi mà kg ảnh hưởng đến ý nghĩa của câu. Trường hợp này, cần phải có MĐề bổ nghĩa) who had close contact with infected birds or sick people. China and Turkey have reported the most recent human infections.

Experts continue to learn more about the virus. New research may show it to be more widespread but not as deadly as people have thought. This week, the archives of the internal medicine published a study by Swedish and Vietnamese scientists. Their findings suggest that sick or dead birds can spread mild (chỗ này bạn đã nghe đúng, bệnh nhẹ thì người ta sử dụng mild, còn bệnh nặng thì dùng severe) avian influenza to humans. They say doctors may be seeing only the most severe cases.
The WHO is taking no chances. It wants every country to develop a plan. France, for example, has announced plans to gather enough face-masks and medicines for all its people.

Note:
- Các bạn hay nhầm lẫn từ said và says, 2 từ này có phiên âm khá giống nhau nên nếu kg để ý sẽ nhầm, từ đầu đọc là [sed], từ thứ 2 đọc là [sez].
- Officer và Official: Officer thường dùng trong quân đội, cảnh sát hoặc để chỉ một viên chức được bổ nhiệm vào một chức vụ nào đó. Còn official dùng để chỉ các nhân viên nói chung làm trong một tổ chức hoặc văn phòng chính phủ.
- effect và affect: affect là một V có nghĩa là ''to have an influence on sth''. Còn effect là 1 N có nghĩa là ''a result or influence'', nhưng khi là V thì effect lại có nghĩa là ''achieve'' (hoàn thành, đạt được). Các bạn lưu ý đừng nhầm lẫn.
