2、新聞。 必考主題。新聞最重要的就是主題。語 速對常速新聞?wù)Z速的不習(xí)慣新聞強調(diào)及時、迅速。語速比日常英語的語速快得多，且只放一遍，考生往往感覺還沒有抓住什么新聞就播完了。新聞的題材內(nèi)容國際政治外交 軍事經(jīng)濟貿(mào)易科學(xué)技術(shù)能源交通工業(yè)、農(nóng)業(yè)文化教育體育衛(wèi)生法律宗教社會問題災(zāi)難報道等兩國或多國關(guān)系（International Relations）國家領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的政策性講話，關(guān)系到國家關(guān)系處理上原則、立場、態(tài)度、愿望、條件等處理國家關(guān)系中的具體活動報道，進展如何、有何波折等常見的新聞題材進行分類軍事糾紛（Fighting）時間、地點、武器名稱、參戰(zhàn)實力、戰(zhàn)斗經(jīng)過、人員傷亡、裝備損失等注意新聞來源各新聞社在報

3、道新聞時會有觀點傾向性常見的新聞題材進行分類常見的新聞題材進行分類示威抗議（Demonstrations）政治性示威和平進軍、反核武器示威、反種族隔離、反獨裁等經(jīng)濟性示威反對物價上漲、提高工資、改善工作條件、縮短工時含暴力沖突警察、警棍（bludgeon ）、催淚彈（tear bomb）、高壓水槍（high pressure gun ）等內(nèi)容特點：示威地點、時間、人數(shù)、原因、經(jīng)過、與警方?jīng)_突情況、傷亡與逮捕人數(shù)等。常見的新聞題材進行分類選舉 （Elections）各國選舉制度不同，過程較長，較復(fù)雜內(nèi)容特點：政黨執(zhí)政策略政見分歧黨內(nèi)矛盾等熟悉黨派名稱及各國選舉制度 （執(zhí)政黨ruling part

5、式(how)在英語短新聞或內(nèi)容提要中至少包括其中三個要素：who，what和when，這些是新聞報道中最具價值的三要素。新聞英語文體特點倒金字塔結(jié)構(gòu)（the inverted pyramid form） 所謂倒金字塔結(jié)構(gòu)，也稱為倒敘法，即按新聞事實重要程度由要點到細節(jié)逐步擴展，安排全文。 （把最重要的新聞事實放在整個新聞報道的開頭，作為導(dǎo)語（lead），次要的新聞事實放在導(dǎo)語后，把最不重要的新聞放在末尾。 ）倒金字塔結(jié)構(gòu)把最重要的事實置于全文的第一句中，即新聞導(dǎo)語(the news lead)。導(dǎo)語告知聽眾最新鮮、最關(guān)心、最重要的事實，如事件(what)、時間(when)、地點(where)、

6、人物(who)以及原因(why)和方式（how)。 導(dǎo)語：報道的精華，對整個新聞的概括和中心思想。 當(dāng)然，由于新聞報道的側(cè)重點不同，有時新聞導(dǎo)語可能只包含其中的幾個要素。句法特點新聞報道一般采用結(jié)構(gòu)簡短的句子，但為了在一個句子中包含較多新聞信息，長采用合并句子（sentence combining）的方法，即把兩句或兩句以上的句子可包含的新聞事實放在一句話里，因此組成語法結(jié)構(gòu)復(fù)雜、松散、冗長的句子。新聞英語詞匯特點1.常用詞匯表示特殊含義 新聞報道常使用某些常見詞匯來表達事實和事件，這些詞匯經(jīng)過長期使用逐漸取得與新聞報道相聯(lián)系的特殊意義，成為新聞體詞語(journalistic words)。

7、例如，horror一詞是新聞標題中常用的詞，用以表示“不幸事故或暴力行動”，再如nadir常指“兩國關(guān)系的最低點”。新聞英語詞匯特點2.大量使用縮略詞 縮略詞具有節(jié)省時間、新穎生動的特點，在英語新聞廣播中廣泛使用，主要是為了節(jié)省時間。在英語新聞廣播中，一般在播出某個縮略的全稱以后，再提到時就使用它的縮略詞。新聞英語詞匯特點3. 使用“小詞” 小詞(midget words)即簡短詞，一般為單音節(jié)詞。小詞在新聞英語中被廣泛使用的原因一是報紙篇幅有限，用小詞可以免于移行，二是小詞的詞義范疇很廣，比較生動靈活。新聞英語稱這類詞為synonyms of all work (萬能同義詞)，如表示“破壞”

8、或“損壞”的動詞，一般會用一些較簡短的詞，如hit, harm, hurt或ruin等；又如表示“放棄”，一般會用drop, give up, quit或skip等；表示“爆炸”之類的意義時，一般會用blast, crash或smash等。新聞英語詞匯特點4.地名、建筑物名稱借用 在英語新聞中，我們時常會聽到記者用各國首都名稱代表國家或政府，用建筑物及街道名稱代表有關(guān)政府機構(gòu)。如：WASHINGTON, July 25The White House today threatened for the first time to.此處White House(白宮)代表美國政府。再如：The Chi

9、nese Embassy in Washington criticized the Pentagon report on Monday.此處Pentagon(五角大樓)代表美國國防部。新聞英語詞匯特點The White House-美國政府the Pentagon-美國國防部Pyongyang-指朝鮮國家Foggy bottom-華盛頓，國務(wù)院所在地Capital Hill-美國國會Oval office-總統(tǒng)辦公室Downing street-英國首相官邸，可指英國政府，內(nèi)閣等各國的首都都可用來指國家或政府，以及官方的報紙、電臺、電視臺等都有這種功能。新聞聽力解題思路如下圖所示：新聞聽力解題

10、技巧重點： 瀏覽題目，根據(jù)選項猜題意，從而縮小范圍。集中精神，注意新聞的第一句話。新聞報道的開頭第一句話一般是對整個報道的一個概括。抓住句子主干，再長的句子也有主謂賓精聽。詳略得當(dāng)，聽到個別專用名詞，如人名、國名地名、組織機構(gòu)名等，不要糾結(jié)于此，以免忽略后面的內(nèi)容。積累新聞高頻詞匯災(zāi)難新聞與災(zāi)害、災(zāi)難有關(guān)用詞 rescue official 援救人員capsize (特指船)傾覆volcano eruption 火山爆發(fā)flood 洪水mudslide 泥石流drought 干旱depredate 掠奪，毀壞death toll 死亡人數(shù) 積累新聞高頻詞匯 refugee 難民tsunami
