答案                                                  Elias Howe
     Most inventions come from long hours--sometimes years--of work. /At other times they came from just a bit of luck. /Take the case of Elias Howe, who invented the sewing machine. /He had most of it worked out/but was having trouble with one thing. /He couldn’t get the thread fed into the needle/so that the machine could work right. /
     One night, Howe had a dream in which he was being chased by men with spears. /The men held the spears with the point towards the ground. /As they ran, /they moved the spears up and down. /Howe noticed something strange about the spears. /Each of them had an eyehole, like a needle, /but the hole was at the bottom. /It was just above the point of the spear. /Howe woke up and hurried to his workshop/where he made a new needle, with the eye near the point. /It worked.

解析 上面的听写材料有下列几处难点:
1.第一句的两个破折号会造成一些听写困难,因为有两个破折号。今后如果遇到这种情况应该想到,双破折号的情况在英语中比较常见。如果听到years和of work之间有停顿,应判断其间有破折号,因为这两者之间不可能用逗号,由此推断long hours和sometimes years之间也应该有破折号。
2.spear不是常用词,或许很难联想出来。在这种情况下,可以按照读音规则试着拼出来,如果能符合上下文意思就是正确答案。
3.eyehole和eye可以由needle(针)联想出来。
