PART I DICTATION
Advertising
[1]Advertising has already become a very specialized activity in modern times. / In [2]today’s business world, supply is usually greater than demand. / There is great competition between [3]manufacturers of the same kind of product / because they want to persuade customers to buy their [4]particular brand. / They always have to remind their customers / of the name and qualities of their products by advertising.
The manufacture advertises [5]in newspapers and on the radio. / He sometimes employs salesgirls to [6]distribute samples of his products. / He sometimes advertises on the Internet as well. /[7]In addition, he always has advertisements put into television programs that will accept them. / Manufactures often spend huge [8]sums of money on advertisements. / We buy a particular product because we think that is the best. / We usually think so because the advertisements say so. / People often don’t ask themselves if the advertisements are telling the truth / when they buy [9]advertised products from shops.
【听写提示】
第一遍听音时记录关键词advertising，advertisements，这样易于把握与主题相关的supply，demand，manufacturers，product等词。
[1]第一遍听完可知，首句为全文的主题句，通篇论述advertising的原因、方法和作用。
[2]注意此处是名词所有格形式。
[3]manufacturer后的s弱读，考生根据语法知识也可作出判断。
[4]particular brand是听写难点。我们对goods或product更熟悉一点。
[5]听写时注意介词的使用，in newspapers，on the radio。
[6]distribute samples意为“分发样品”，听写samples时不要漏掉s。
[7]In addition这一表示递进关系的词组后用逗号。
[8]sums of构成连读。
[9]advertised中的-ed是弱读，考生可能听不出来，但可根据语法知识补上。
