Compound Dictation is a very difficult item of listening test. It includes two parts: word dictation and sentence reproduction. The first seven (usually seven) blanks require your accurate spelling of the words you hear. The last three blanks call for reproductions of sentences. Original sentences would be acceptable.

　　Four ability tested:

　　Listening ability: clearly get the information said

　　Memorizing ability: memorize the information for a time to finish all the exercises

　　Comprehension ability: understand the information; extract your own meaning from it

　　Expression ability: write out your own understanding of the information in correct and good English as well as correct spelling.

　　Pre-listening: Take advantage of the time when the direction is spoken to read the passage quickly to get its main idea and structure. Make wild guess what word could be used in the first 7 blanks, and what is expected to be talked about in the last three blanks. The more you can guess, the better.

　　While listening:

　　“Now listen to the passage:” Write one or two letters for the first seven blanks. Remember not to write the complete spelling of the words, which will make you stay here and miss the latter part of the passage. For the last three sentences, do not write anything but close your eyes and listen carefully, try to translate what you heard into Chinese for better understanding and memorization. Pay special attention to the sentence structure (therefore, while, however, who, etc.). The sentences tested are usually parallel sentences and compound sentences.

　　“Now the passage will be read again:” Complete the first seven blanks quickly, and get well-prepared for the last three blanks. Try to write some key words, important words, structural words of the sentences (Subject, verb, object, and conjunction). Do not try to write every word. Some insignificant words can be made up later very easily.

　　“Now the passage will be read for a third time:” Check the first 7 words and complete the last three sentences.
