1. Warming up by having a dictation
To begin with, let’s take a dictation to strengthen our memory of the text.
Larry Belmont worked for a company that make robot. Recently a robot that could do housework would be tested out Larry's life, Clair, for three weeks. Clair felt alarmed by the robot's humanly appearance. Before long she began to trust him. She told him that she and her home were not elegant enough for her husband and she envied the rich and powerful woman .The robot decided to protect her from being harm. He gave her a new haircut and changed her makeup and asked her to buy something to decorate her home. Before the night he was to leave Clair, they held a party. The guests were impressed by Clair and her home, especially by the handsome robot, whom they thought was her husband. Claire knew this is almost a dream and she felt very sad. However, the company was very satisfied with Tony, the robot although he needed rebuilding because it is absurd to have women falling in love with a machine.
2. Discovering useful words and collocations
A collocation is two or more words that often go together. These combinations just sound \to native English speakers, who use them all the time.
While going over the text, try to recognize the collocations, treat them as single blocks of language and copy them out into your Collocation Book.
