Compound dictation

We're now witnessing the emergence of the advanced economy based on information and knowledge. Physical labor, raw materials and capital key ingredients in the creation of wealth. Now the vital raw material in our economy is knowledge. Tomorrow's wealth depends on the development and exchange of knowledge. And individuals entering the work force offer their knowledge, not their muscles. Knowledge workers get paid for their education and their ability to learn. Knowledge workers engage in mind work. They deal with symbols, words, figures, and data.

　　What does all this mean for you?

　　As a future knowledge worker, you can expect to be generating, processing as well as exchanging information. Currently, three out of four jobs involve some form of mind work. And that number will increase sharply in the future. Management and employees alike will be making decisions in such areas as product development, quality control, and customer satisfaction.

　　In the new world of work, you can look forward to being in constant training to acquire new skills that will help you keep up with improved technologies and procedures.

　　You can also expect to be taking greater control of your career. Gone are the nine to five jobs, lifetime security, predictable promotions, and even the conventional workplace as you're familiar with. Don't expect the companies will provide you with a clearly defined career path, and don't wait for some one to empower you. You have to empower yourself.

　　这次复合试听写的话题考生并不会感到陌生，是讲知识在信息时代的重要性以及建议人们应该自己武装自己，因为知识就是力量。

　　对于填写的单词来讲，基本符合我们上课所讲的三种范围，即长词，较偏词和尾巴词，只要考生做到细心核对，应该问题不大。

　　本次三个句子的听写相对来说难度有所提高，因为本身句子结构较为复杂，包含一定的从句，并且其中涉及的词汇也较为书面化，例如 satisfaction，procedures 和path。但是只要考生正确运用我们昂立课上讲解的方法，即第一遍先听核心意思，用最快的方法记下，第二遍把句子主干写下来，第三遍再修正补充，应该还是可以拿到基本的分数的。
