NPR邊聽邊練25:電影巨頭們想通了

【NPR邊聽邊練】致力于提供新鮮有趣、饒有意味的時訊資料，致力于通過精聽的方式促進聽力提高，致力于不斷開闊眼界和深入了解美國觀點。

精聽建議：

先完整地把一條新聞聽一到三遍，爭取掌握大意。然后，一句一句精聽，力爭每句話都聽明白。遇到實在不懂的地方，再聽寫。

下面的文本材料中空缺部分里面要填的詞都很簡單，不過是一些值得注意的連讀或者典型的美式發(fā)音哦，有些語速比較快。試試看，你能不能全部寫對?

(參考文本，歡迎指出錯誤^^)

Hi, so it’s, Warner Brothers, Universal, Sony, Paramount, 20th Fox, MGM are involved in the Movielink site. And then Sony ___1___ along with Lions Gate announced that they’ll sell film online at CinamNow. And both companies said the downloads would cost about 20-30 dollars for newer films. And some of them are gonna be available as you said the same day that you can get them on DVD. Most will be available within ___2___ 45 days of that release date. But what I’ve read so far is, there is a catch in this, there are limits as where you can watch the movies. Yeah! And that ___3___ piracy. I mean the studios worry that if you could play the movie on your DVD. You just keep burning it. They___4___ losing money. So you can only download the movie onto your PC. In some cases you can download it onto a device that also plays games like an Xbox. If you had the right equipments like a Slingbox or MS Home Media Entertainment Technology, you can watch ___5___ on your television. This seems like a major point because people like to watch these movies in their homes on their Home Theatre setups. Not that many people, I think, are wild about watch a movie experience on a laptop say..

參考答案：

1. in a separate announcement

2.at least

3.to try to limit

4.’d end up

5.the downloaded movie
