　　Section B Compound dictation:
　　Directions:In this section you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. Then listen to the passage again. When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from S1 to S7 with the exact words you have just heard. For blanks numbered S8 to S10, you are required to fill in the missing information. You can either use the exact words you have just heard or write down the main points in your own words. Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written.
　　The word "sport" first meant something that people did in their free time. Later it often meant (S1)     wild animals and birds. About a hundred years ago the word was first used for (S2)     games. This is the usual (S3)     of the word today.
　　People spend a lot of their (S4)     time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they want to. A few people are paid for the sport they play. These people are called (S5)     sportsmen. They may be sportsmen for only a few years, but during that time the best ones can earn a lot of money. For example, a football star in England can earn more than ?1,000,000. (S6)    golf and tennis (S7)    can make more than one million in a year. Of course, only a few sportsmen can earn as much money as that. (S8)    . Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is this: the stars can earn more money from advertising than from sport. (S9)    . It says "Buy the same shirt and shoes as …". (S10)    . Sport is no longer just something for people's spare time.
