Standard English的專題節(jié)目與新聞節(jié)目相比,選題較為固定,但內(nèi)容更為生動(dòng)詳盡,剖析更為深刻;多采用現(xiàn)場(chǎng)錄音或現(xiàn)場(chǎng)直播,播音也完全不受死板的播音間歇的限制,而 是隨著情感的起伏自由處理。有的地方邊想邊說(shuō),時(shí)斷時(shí)續(xù);有的地方則流暢如同行云流水,輕聲慢語(yǔ),使聽眾感到十分親切。在報(bào)道中,各地記者的電話錄音和發(fā)音都不如播音員清晰純正,被訪者大都能說(shuō)英語(yǔ),不乏南腔北調(diào),這樣也增加了收聽難度,但能聽懂這些內(nèi)容才是英語(yǔ)聽力學(xué)習(xí)的最終目標(biāo)。
