答案 Most people prefer short stories to novels. /Magazines, newspapers and books, printed in millions of copies every month, /often supply the demand for short fiction. /In the U. S. today the short story is the most popular form of current literature. /Perhaps it is the modem manner of living/that demands that all current fiction be short. /In the present society people do everything with a fast pace. /Literature shares its place in the favor of the crowd/with amusements undreamed of a hundred years ago. /The time for leisurely reading of ten-volume novels appears to have passed. /The fiction readers demand a form that best fits their habits. /Long introductions and detailed descriptive passages became the special joy of a particular kind of reader, /whereas the crowd, chooses the short story for pleasure. /Small wonder that many writers have turned their talents to the short story.
解析 本文的主要难点集中在中间两句：Literature shares its place in the favor of the crowd with amusements undreamed of a hundred years ago. The time for leisurely reading of ten-volume novels appears to have passed. undreamed是一个派生词，要更多依靠上下文来判断；ten-volume则需要用语法来判断这是由连字符连接两词构成的新词，否则应该是ten volumes。语法和语音语调的熟练能极大地帮助提高听写的成绩。
