[02:08.78]Letting Things Go-Speed and Vocabulary
[02:14.64]Many English language learners
[02:18.76]believe that the greatest diffculty with listening comprehension
[02:24.22]is that the listener cannot___how quickly a speaker speaks.
[02:30.88]They feel that the utterances disappear before they can___them out,
[02:36.92]whereas the words in a written text remain___
[02:42.56]where the reader can glance back at them or re-examine them thoroughly.
[02:48.72]This frequently means that students who are learning to listen cannot keep up.
[02:56.17]They sre so busy___the meaning of one part of what they hear
[03:02.41]that they miss the nest part.
[03:06.57]Or they simply ignore___because they fail to sort it all out quickly enough.
[03:14.30]Either way,they____.
[03:18.43]Another difficulty is that the listener
[03:21.90]is that the listener is not always____to get the speaker to___what has been said.
[03:29.27]And,of course,
[03:33.03]repeats cannot be asked for when listening to radio or watching television.
[03:39.98]Choice of___is in the hands of the speaker,not the listener,
[03:46.93]although in some circumstances
[03:50.87]it is possible to___the speaker and ask for clarification.
[03:57.11]Sometimes,listeners can get the meaning of a word from____.
[04:03.57]But very often,for people listening to a foreign language,
[04:09.34]an unknown word can be like a suddenly dropped____
[04:14.90]causing them to stop and think about the meaning of the word
[04:20.26]and thus making them___the next part of the speech.
[04:25.22]In listening,it really is a case of "He who hesitates is______!"
[04:32.77]Indeed,_____to listen to what is coming,
[04:38.10]and letting things that have passed____rather than dwelling upon them,
[04:44.06]often gives surprisingly good results.
[04:48.73]Speakers often say things more than once,or___them,
[04:53.69]or another speaker echose what has been said.
[05:00.36]The listener who has not "stopped" to dwell on____gets a second,
[05:07.12]or even third chance to fill____in the message he or she is receiving.
[05:13.29]Students need to develop the skill of keeping up with the speaker
[05:19.22](even being___the speaker)
[05:23.47]even if this means letting parts which they have failed to sort out pass.
[05:30.42]Professor H.H.Stern says that the good language learner
[05:36.77]is the one who "can tolerate vagueness and ___of knowledge."
[05:43.54]This is especially true of good listeners.
