—Wildlife Conservation—
初級｜中級｜高級
初、中、高級聽寫材料按周輪流放出。例，本周一至五集中練習初級聽力，下周練習中級，再下周練習高級。大家可根據(jù)自身基礎調整練習方式。
如，對于一個初級學員來說，初級周材料須聽寫精聽；中級周時做挑戰(zhàn)練習，校對分析不足；高級周材料做泛聽練習。
請一定重視校對過程。

（請務必聽寫后校對）
This month, the U.S.Agency for International Development, or USAID, and the U.S.Department of the Interior, the DOI, announced a grant to the Kenya Ministry of Environment and the Africa Conservation Centre to support Kenya’s National Wildlife Conservation Strategy.
The grant and seven other grants awarded over the past year provide a total of$1.3 million, or 103 million Kenyan shillings, to support conservation and combat wildlife crime in Kenya and East Africa and lay the groundwork for sustained collaboration between U.S. government and Kenyan counterparts.
Wildlife crime threatens the security, economy, and biodiversity of East Africa, as demand for products like elephant ivory and rhino horn continues to rise and poaching methods become increasingly sophisticated. International networks for poaching, transit, and sale of illegal wildlife products target wildlife populations across borders, creating a complex problem that transcends national boundaries. Kenya is currently a key source and transit country for illegal wildlife products from Africa.
The conservation and sustainable management of wildlife and habitats is crucial to the region’s long term economic growth and development.
In support of the U.S. National Strategy for Combating Wildlife Trafficking, USAID is taking action to enhance wildlife management and the enforcement and prosecution of wildlife crime.
USAID has partnered with the DOI’s International Technical Assistance Program, or DOI-ITAP, on a five-year project that uses DOI’s expertise in law enforcement, investigation, and prosecution to create a strong network of regional actors to combat wildlife trafficking throughout East Africa.
Since March 2016, USAID and DOI-ITAP have funded work with government agencies responsible for managing wildlife,
Nongovernmental organizations fighting wildlife crime, and civil society groups that inform the public about this serious issue.
In addition to the Ministry of Environment grant, projects supported include grants administered by Save the Elephants to support the Elephant Crisis Fund; regional coordinating efforts and enhanced community engagement to counter wildlife crime by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature; high profile events like the Giants Club Summit; public out reach initiatives by Wildlife Direct;
security for rhino protection by the Laikipia Wildlife Forum; and organizational planning to protect wildlife at the Kenya Wildlife Service.
As U.S. Ambassador to Kenya Robert Godec noted, “By protecting wildlife and the environment, we can create jobs and build prosperity while preserving Kenya’s rich natural heritage.”
聽寫方法推薦
眾所周知，聽寫是練習精聽最好的方法。很多同學不知道怎么聽寫。下面簡單介紹一下我聽寫時的方法。
第一步：完整的聽一遍所有內容，對聽寫內容有大概的了解，并且抓住了一些核心詞匯，為等一下的聽寫初步減輕難度。
第二步：以每個單句或意群為單位，一句一句的聽，暫停后寫。比如4.11聽寫內容中hang on a minute，聽到這里可以點擊暫停并寫下這句。
第三步：邊聽邊寫。如果聽完卻沒有寫完，也沒有記住漏掉的單詞，那么返回去重聽，補充漏掉的詞。
第四步：如果一句話反復聽了五遍還是沒有聽出來一些單詞，做好標記，放棄。繼續(xù)聽下面。
第五步：如此下來一篇聽完了。完成今天的任務了么？不！千萬不要丟掉極其重要的一步：校對！
有兩個方面要校對：
1.沒有聽出來的意群：可能包括連讀或者省音,分析錯誤的原因并做筆記。
2.沒有聽出來或聽錯的單詞:每篇校對后寫在聽寫筆記下面并羅列,這些才是你每天的進步之基。
