答案                         MP3 Players
    Despite a cloud of controversy / and litigation over the legality of some web music sites, / online music files are apparently here to stay. / Many of those files are transferred from computers to more than 3.5 million portable MP3 players, / small as a walkabout radio，or even smaller. / Music fans have already downloaded an estimated 5 million copies of software programs that play computer files. / These files that use MP3 encoding currently are the predominant means of compressing music files online. / Many MP3 players look much like portable radios. / Others look like large pens or even watches. / Inside each player is a computer chip and memory / that can store and play compressed digital audio files / and will sometimes store other computer files as well. / Digital audio can be downloaded from various websites. / played on the home computer itself, transferred to one of these players, / or recorded onto CDs for permanent storage. /
解析 由于连读和近似音干扰，首句“Despite a cloud of controversy and litigation over the legality of some web music sites, online music files are apparently here to stay.”误听成“Despite a crowd of controversy and litigation over the legality of some web music sites, online music files are apparently hear to say.”短语a cloud of意为“大量的”，一般修饰dust/smoke/gas或抽象性的东西，用在此处指“大量的”争论和起诉，而a crowd of一般形容具体人或东西的“多”。另外，听音时如把stay误听为say，可以在检查时看到online music files are apparently hear to say不符语法规则和语义。
