一、泛聽建議：
1、完整聽一遍，掌握大意。
2、繼續(xù)聽，特別注意關(guān)鍵信息。遇到相似的詞，寫下來。
Within minutes of the House vote, however, the Senate again voted to strip out the amendments,_1_ a clean version of the funding bill back to the House, which again has begun debate. This point at least a partial government shutdown seems to be almost inevitable.
眾議院馬上就要進(jìn)行投票，但是參議院再次投票排除了修訂方案，將撥款法案的清潔版發(fā)回眾議院，這再次引起了辯論。目前來看，部分政府即將關(guān)閉的情況是不可避免的。
President Obama, meantime, had a clear message at the White House today with the possible _2_ government shutdown, the president telling respective sides to put aside their differences over his health care law and pass a measure that will keep the government running. In an interview with NPR, the president says he's not delaying the health care law just because some Republicans don't like it.
同時(shí)，今天奧巴馬總統(tǒng)在白宮就政府可能面臨關(guān)閉的情況明確表明態(tài)度，總統(tǒng)勸告兩黨拋開在奧巴馬醫(yī)改上的分歧，通過法案使政府維持運(yùn)行?？偨y(tǒng)在接受NPR新聞的采訪時(shí)表示，他不會(huì)因?yàn)橐恍┕埠忘h人不喜歡奧巴馬醫(yī)改而推遲實(shí)施。
"The notion that we would even delay them getting that kind of peace of mind, potentially going to a doctor to get _3_ for illnesses that they currently have simply because the Republicans _4_, ideologically, that they're opposed to the Affordable Care Act is not something that we're gonna _5_."
“可能有人有這種想法，認(rèn)為僅因?yàn)楣埠忘h的決定就會(huì)推遲實(shí)施他們現(xiàn)在享有的去看醫(yī)生接受治療的待遇，只因?yàn)樗麄兎磳?duì)平價(jià)醫(yī)療法，但這并不是我們要討論的問題。”

一家聯(lián)邦法院裁定，禁止亞利桑那州警長喬·阿爾帕約逮捕走私非法移民者。據(jù)NPR新聞的泰德·羅賓斯報(bào)道，那曾是強(qiáng)硬的警長逮捕移民的正當(dāng)理由。
