新聞英語聽力材料
新聞英語與較為口語化的影視劇英語不同，新聞英語用詞比較正式，且文體非常接近書面英語，這種形式的聽力從內(nèi)容上來看與四六級雅思托福等考試的要求相契合。因此，我們可以將新聞英語作為平時聽力練習(xí)以及備考材料。下面是yjbys小編為大家?guī)淼男侣動⒄Z聽力材料，歡迎閱讀。
新聞英語聽力材料 1
1.CNN Student News
如果你覺得聽VOA和BBC太難，CNN Student News可能會是適合你的新聞英語入門材料。CNN Student News(現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)改名為 CNN 10)是 CNN 面向美國中學(xué)生的一檔新聞節(jié)目，它從時事政治到生活瑣事，包羅萬象，語速、詞匯量適中，適合中級學(xué)習(xí)者進行提高。CNN官方網(wǎng)上對這檔節(jié)目的介紹是：
CNN Student News is a ten-minute, commercial-free, daily news program designed for middle and high school classes. It is produced by the journalists at CNN. This award-winning show and its companion website are available free of charge throughout the school year.
CNN官方網(wǎng)上每個工作日都會更新一期節(jié)目，每期節(jié)目都是視頻+文本形式(視頻形式更加便于學(xué)習(xí)者理解新聞內(nèi)容)，長度在10分鐘左右：
CNN Student News 的詞匯量要求大概是6000-9000，一般來說，只要有大學(xué)六級水平，一般都能比較順暢地聽懂大部分內(nèi)容。我們可以使用 CNN Student News 進行精聽練習(xí)：先看一遍視頻，了解新聞大概意思，然后聽第二遍，爭取聽懂所有能聽懂的內(nèi)容，然后對照著文本再聽一遍，找出聽不懂的地方并學(xué)習(xí)。每期節(jié)目整個流程下來大概耗時五十分鐘左右，長期堅持下來對聽力提升幫助會很大。
2.60-Second Science
60-Second Science 是科學(xué)美國人(Scientific American)推出的一個欄目，主要用于報道最新的科技發(fā)展新聞，以及這些科技發(fā)展會對人們的生活造成的影響。60-Second Science 每周推出兩到三期，每期聽力的長度在兩分鐘左右，并且配有聽力原文。
60-Second Science 的難度要比上面提到的 CNN Student News 高，聽力中經(jīng)常會出現(xiàn)一些科技名詞，比如 microbial, molecule, asthma, cardiovascular 等，但它同樣可以作為科技類新聞的精聽材料。經(jīng)常聽科學(xué)60秒有助于我們積累科技類詞匯的表達(dá)。
3.NPR News
NPR 即 National Public Radio，是美國國家公共電臺的簡稱。NPR 節(jié)目以新聞及綜述為主，是美國國內(nèi)收聽率最高的廣播電臺，面向美國民眾廣播。NPR News 是其中的一個欄目，主要報道美國國內(nèi)以及全球發(fā)生的'新聞事件。NPR News 每期的長度在3-5分鐘，語速與CNN Student News 接近，并同樣帶有聽力文本。
由于NPR News 是面向英語母語者播放，它的難度同樣會比 CNN Student News 要高。同時，新聞中還會出現(xiàn) NPR 記者在全球各地的連線采訪對話，會帶有各種口音，這一點也與單一主持人播報的 CNN Student News 不同。
4.AP News Minute
AP的全稱是 The Associated Press, 即美國聯(lián)合通訊社，AP News Minute 是它推出的一個一分鐘新聞欄目，報道在美國以及全球發(fā)生的新聞事件。
5.BBC World Service
BBC World Service 是 BBC 推出的24小時國際廣播節(jié)目，內(nèi)容涵蓋了實時新聞、訪談、新聞分析等。總體難度會比 CNN Student News 要高一點，且由于這是實時廣播節(jié)目，沒有對應(yīng)的聽力文本。我們可以將它作為泛聽材料學(xué)習(xí)。
在手機上的 BBC News 應(yīng)用上也可以找到入口：
如果需要在手機上收聽這些材料，可以使用一些資源聚合類應(yīng)用，比如歐路詞典的每日英語聽力應(yīng)用。
這款應(yīng)用對各大新聞英語資源做了聚合以及歸類，可以免去下載一堆App的麻煩，同時，它對這些新聞也提供了對應(yīng)的聽力原文(部分還有譯文)。手機端查詞會調(diào)用歐路詞典，同時還可以對聽力原文做筆記，可以作為日常練習(xí)聽力的一個工具。
最后值得注意的一點是，雖然目前市面上有很多聽力材料，但練習(xí)的時候不要貪多，選擇自己最喜歡的一種堅持下去就行。如果選擇了 CNN Student News，就堅持聽下去，而不能三天兩頭換材料。每一款材料堅持聽下去都可以給人帶來巨大的進步。

Solar-Powered Airplane Lands in Spain
太陽能飛機在西班牙著陸
An airplane powered totally by the sun landed in Seville, Spain early Thursday after completing a 71-hour flight across the Atlantic Ocean.

他說這種狀況影響到了所有農(nóng)民。他正在賠錢，但是不知道找誰解決。他說，“沒人會理會我們。”
Thailand faces strong competition for rice exports from India and Vietnam. This is partly because of lower pay in neighboring countries and large expected harvests this year.
泰國在大米出口上面臨著印度和越南的強力競爭。部分原因是鄰國工資更低，并且很大預(yù)期今年會豐收。

Hannah Godefa is just 16 years old, but she is busy defending the right of all girls and women to be educated. The young woman serves as a national goodwill ambassador to Ethiopia for UNICEF -- the United Nations Childrens Fund. And she is urging the UN to make a workable plan to end the discrimination that keeps girls out of classrooms.
Last week, for example, she spoke in Geneva to the committee on elimination of discrimination against women. She talked about increasing girls chances for education and protecting them within education from sexual and other abuses.
UNICEF national ambassador to Ethiopia Hannah Godefa
Hannah Godefa was born in Canada to Ethiopian parents. She was appointed to her UNICEF job in January of 2013. Since then, she has visited Ethiopia and other countries in Africa.
She describes the purpose of her work as speaking out for the millions of girls who are not attending school. Hannah notes that some girls do not have a school available to attend. And there are other reasons they can not get an education.
"Girls also face a lot of responsibilities that, I say, discourage them from attending school - lots of family responsibilities," Godefa said.
The young UNICEF ambassador believes cultural barriers and economic considerations also limit girls chances. Sometimes, parents must choose whether to send their boys or girls to school. Hannah Godefa says many families value girls as workers.
"So, all the odds are stacked against them. That is why we have to target them and support them and protect them," Godefa said.
Hannah became interested in childrens education when she was only 7 years old. She was visiting her grandmother in rural Ethiopia at the time. Hannah became friends with a local girl and wanted to keep communicating with her when she returned home.
But Hannahs parents told her that the other girls do not have pencils or paper to write letters. Their daughter reacted by establishing the Pencil Mountain project. She says the project has provided more than 500,000 objects including writing instruments for use in schools.
"So, things beyond pencils, like other basic school supplies as well as text books for second-generation universities, some of the newer universities that have been constructed in Ethiopia, " Godefa said.
The project has also provided wheelchairs for disable students. Nowadays, as a teenager, Hannah does a lot of public speaking. She spoke at the International Day of the Girl Child at UNICEF New York Headquarters in October 2013. She made the presentation a month before her sixteenth birthday.
She also acted as moderator or leader at a UNICEF event last December. American singer Katy Perry accepted responsibilities as UNICEFs latest goodwill ambassador at that event. UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon was among world leaders attending the discussion.

If threes a crowd, a new planet recently discovered orbiting a sunlike star is really cluttering up its neighborhood.
The new planet is the fourth Jupiter-like world to be found around the young star HR 8799, astronomers announced today. The same team had previously found the other three planets in 2008, when they took a direct picture of the star system.
Of the more than 500 planets discovered to date outside our solar system, most have been found via indirect methods, such as looking for planets gravitational tugs on their host stars or for dips in starlight when planets pass in front of their hosts.
The new planet was also found in a direct image of the HR 8799 system. But based on the masses of the planets and their distances from the star, the fourth world challenges current theories of planet formation, according to the study authors.
"This is the first multiplanet system directly imaged so far, so its quite a feat," said lead study author Christian Marois, an astronomer at the Herzberg Institute of Astrophysics in Canada.
"But we are now stuck with four planets [and] we cannot explain their formation and their current locations by any of our models."
Fourth Planet Too Close to Its Parent?
The previously known planets around HR 8799 are about five, seven, and ten times Jupiters mass. They orbit between 2.2 billion miles (3.5 billion kilometers) from the star—roughly the same as Neptunes distance from the sun—and 6.3 billion miles (10.1 billion kilometers), or almost twice Plutos distance.
The most distant planet circles just inside a dusty disk similar to that produced by the solar systems Kuiper belt, a region of small, icy bodies that includes Pluto.
The whole HR 8799 system is estimated to be no more than 60 million years old, so the planets are still glowing with heat from their formation. This heat signature is what betrayed the planets positions in the previous infrared images of the star.
Astronomers found the fourth planet using the Keck II telescope on the peak of Mauna Kea in Hawaii. The instrument is equipped with a special near-infrared imager and adaptive optics to eliminate the blurring effect of Earths atmosphere.

Ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much. I wont take much of your time. Jayal motors has decided to move into the export business. Now, we weren’t sure till late yesterday afternoon about this decision. I didnt tell you anything before that because we had to make research on the market first. Now then, I went to Australia to see if I could get us an export market. Two days ago we got word that we had got our first export order: 100 bikes, delivery in two months. Now you all know the situation on the home market. We’re a small company. The big companies are moving into the provinces and putting small firms like us out of business. We have got to expand, and we cant afford to lose this chance. We cant afford to make any mistakes.

Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity. It might be walking, cycling, or swimming , or in winter , skating or skiing . It might be a game of some kind —football, hockey, golf or tennis., or it might be mountaineering . Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship , and to take risks on high mountains ? This astonishment it probably caused by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure. If we compare mountaineering and other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team sport”. We should be mistaken in this . There are , it is true , no “matcher” between “ teams” of climbers , however, when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend , there is obviously teamwork .

Hints:EuropeBritainFranceGermanyPoland UkraineCarboniferousfuelthe Industrial Revolutionpowerhouse.
It took a ten-meter layer of fallen rain forest to make just a one-meter seam of coal. When you consider the depth of all the seams in all the coalfields worked in Europe, from Britain through to northern France and Germany, Poland and Ukraine, the immense scale of Carboniferous forests becomes clear.
Coal fuelled one of the greatest transformations that Europe has ever seen. Its presence all across the continent was a vital component in making Europe the cradle of the Industrial Revolution and ultimately turned it into the economic powerhouse it is today. The ancient past can directly shape the present. Europe is now the most urbanized and industrialized continent on the globe, largely thanks to its position on the equator 300 million years ago.

I hope your Thursday is going well so far. I`m Carl Azuz. And we are glad to have you watching CNN STUDENT NEWS. Recent swings in the U.S. stock market are violent. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, one indicator of how the whole market is doing, closed down 173 points yesterday. At one point, it had dropped 460 points. We`ve told you how when investors are afraid, they tend to sell, dropping the value of stocks in the market. What are they afraid of?For one thing, Germany. Europe`s largest economy isn`t doing well. For another American retail sales decreases, and so did prices. Those are bad signs for the economy`s health.
希望你的周四現(xiàn)在過得還不錯。我是Carl Azuz，歡迎收看CNN學(xué)生新聞。最近美國股市波動劇烈，代表整個工業(yè)市場運轉(zhuǎn)狀況的道瓊斯工業(yè)平均指數(shù)昨天下跌了173個點。在某方面其指數(shù)已經(jīng)下跌了460個點。我們在之前說過，當(dāng)投資者感覺到市場危機時就會把手中的股票拋售，這樣就會對股票價格造成貶值。他們害怕的是什么呢?其中一個就是德國，歐洲最大的經(jīng)濟體現(xiàn)狀并不太理想。另一個就是美國零售價格的下降，還有市場價格的下跌。這些都對經(jīng)濟的良好發(fā)展有著重大的影響。
Another reason investors are fearful, the possible spread of the deadly Ebola virus in the U.S. A second nurse at a Dallas Texas Hospital has contracted the disease. Like Nina Pham, whom we told you about earlier, 29-year old Amber Vincent helped treat a Liberian man who died last week from Ebola. Vincent had traveled to Ohio recently. The CDC says, she wasn`t officially allowed to travel on a commercial plane, but it says the risk to others is low since Vincent didn`t have symptoms when she went.
還有一個令投資者感到害怕的就是埃博拉疫情在美國的傳播。德克薩斯州達(dá)拉斯當(dāng)?shù)匾患裔t(yī)院再又一名護士感染埃博拉病毒。就像Nina Pham，我們之前報道過，29歲的Amber Vincent也曾救治過上周感染埃博拉去世的利比亞人。Vincent最近去過俄亥俄州，美國疾病與預(yù)防中心稱她并沒有允許乘坐商業(yè)飛機旅行，但稱Vincent在出發(fā)時沒有出現(xiàn)該病癥所以感染其他人的.風(fēng)險也會比較小。
Meanwhile, America`s largest nurses` union is strongly criticizing health officials, including the CDC over how they`ve handled Ebola. It says the Dallas nurses didn`t have the supplies or the training they needed and that they feel lied to and deserted to handle their own situation.
同時，美國最大的護士士聯(lián)盟強烈抨擊衛(wèi)生官員，包括疾病與預(yù)防中心，就其應(yīng)對埃博拉疫情處理方式展開抨擊。他們稱達(dá)拉斯護士并沒有得到設(shè)備提供，或者必要的訓(xùn)練并且感覺受騙了，自己健康情況并未得到保證。
The CDC says it`s committed to the nurses` safety and giving them what they need to safely manage Ebola patients.
疾病與預(yù)防控制中心表示他們致力于保障護士的安全而努力工作，并且向他們提供了救治埃博拉患者所有需要的設(shè)備要求。
Also, President Obama postponed a Democratic campaign trip yesterday. Instead, he met with cabinet agencies to discuss the government`s response to Ebola.
同時，Obama總統(tǒng)在昨天推遲了民主競選行程。相反，他與內(nèi)閣機構(gòu)就政府應(yīng)對埃博拉行動進行了討論。
One thing that`s spreading faster than the disease is the fear of it.
該疾病快速的傳播速度令人感到恐懼。
A scene out of a disaster movie. First responders in hazmat gear board an Emirates` flight from Dubai and check five passengers with flu-like symptoms. None met the criteria for Ebola or had visited Africa.
就像災(zāi)難電影里出現(xiàn)的畫面一樣。在從迪拜出發(fā)的酋長國航班在經(jīng)過危險品安全檢查時查出五名乘客有類似流感病癥，但是其中任何人都沒有出現(xiàn)符合埃博拉疫情病癥，也沒有去過非洲國家。
At LAX, 40 firefighters respond to a passenger with flu-like symptoms. But that`s where the scare ends.
在洛杉磯，40名消防隊員前往應(yīng)對出現(xiàn)疑似流感病癥乘客，但是最后卻是虛驚一場。
It has turned out that there was some miscommunication that this patient had been to the continent of Africa, but not near West Africa.
結(jié)果是一場誤會，這個乘客只是到過非洲大陸，但距離西非國家很遠(yuǎn)。
Ebola has not, repeat, not, spread through the U.S., but fear certainly has. In Nashville, Tennessee, a sick passenger was taken of the plane that originated in Dallas. The patient has no contact with anyone with Ebola or traveled to Africa.
埃博拉并沒有，重復(fù)一遍，并沒有在美國得到傳播，但是恐懼氣息依然存在。在納什維爾，田納西州，一位生病的乘客被帶到達(dá)拉斯。這位患者并未與任何埃博拉患者有過接觸，也沒有去過非洲地區(qū)。
In Richmond, Virginia, a patient with a low-grade fever who had traveled to Africa is isolated. Even though the clinic says they don`t believe it`s Ebola.
在弗吉尼亞州里士滿，有一個曾經(jīng)去過非洲國家出現(xiàn)低燒癥狀的病人已經(jīng)被隔離。盡管醫(yī)生稱其并不像是埃博拉病癥。
Each scare stretches first responders and can cost taxpayers thousands of dollars and flu season has barely begun.
每次疑似病例的出現(xiàn)都會有應(yīng)急小組出動，并且花費納稅人數(shù)千美元，而現(xiàn)在流感季節(jié)也已經(jīng)開始。
People will take this one in stride, but it takes a while. It takes longer if you tell them they are panicking.
人們將會經(jīng)歷這樣一個階段，但是這個階段可能會長一些。如果世人都感到恐懼的話將會需要更長時間來應(yīng)對危機。
What makes this societal learning curve war, says Sandman, is early on the CDC chief insisted everything was under control, then the nurse in Dallas contracted the disease.
Sandman稱，是什么讓這個社會誤解了這場戰(zhàn)爭?因為早些時候疾病與預(yù)防中心主任堅持稱一切都在控制當(dāng)中，然后再達(dá)拉斯出現(xiàn)了護士感染病毒這一事件。
What he didn`t say is it`s going to be harder than people imagine. It`s going to be harder than we imagine. So, now, yeah, now people are angry at the CDC and that anger is sort of morphing into fear.
他并沒有表示人們對該疫情的恐懼難以想象。這已經(jīng)超出了我們的想象。所以，現(xiàn)在人們對CDC感到憤怒，這種憤怒已經(jīng)開始轉(zhuǎn)化為恐懼。

Ladies and gentlemen, your attention, please! Our bus will arrive at Lake Park in a few minutes. You can feel the comfortable cool air coming from the lake. This is the favourite place for tourists in the summer afternoon like today. This lake is one of the great wonders of nature. No one knows when or how it was formed. But people began to build houses around the lake a hundred years ago, so in this park you can have a special view of houses of all shapes and styles and colors. It is like an architecture show. In late autumn and winter, this park is the best place for bird watching. School teachers like to bring children here and they just love it.
Now our bus is driving around the lake. You can sit back and enjoy the beauty of everything here. The bus will take us to a good spot, where you can take the most wonderful photos you have ever taken.
Here we are. Please get off and watch your step. Return to the bus in twenty minutes. Thank you!
