听说训练（60分）

Part A: Reading Aloud 模仿朗读 （20分）
In this part, you are required to listen to the tape or watch a video clip, and read after the speaker.
Odaiba is a “town” on man-made islands in Tokyo Bay (东京湾). It’s one of Tokyo’s most interesting tourist spots. It’s also a popular shopping and entertainment centre.
There are the Statue of Liberty and the Rainbow Bridge there! The statue looks the same as that in New York City, but it’s much smaller. It was built in 1998 to commemorate（纪念） the “Year of France in Japan.” It has become a symbol of Odaiba. The Rainbow Bridge is a white bridge. It carries three transportation lines on two decks. The bridge is lit up using solar energy! I took many photos alongside the Statue of Liberty with the Rainbow Bridge in the background.
