內容簡介
這本《VOA醫學英語聽力教程——健康報導專題》由林韶蓉編，精選了36篇最近三年來的VOA健康報導，按12個專題編輯成冊。題材廣泛，既涉及諸如慢性病、愛滋病等傳統話題，也包括豬流感、輻射等一些較新的熱門話題。由於原報導語速較慢，篇幅較長，本書編者精心設計，使用專業語音軟體調整語速，以更好地鍛鍊學生的聽力水平，並將每篇報導錄音剪輯成三部分，每部分都配上相應的練習，既利於老師上課靈活使用，也能讓學生保持注意力。配套練習形式多樣，既有考察學生基本聽力理解和記憶的選擇題、判斷題、填空題和問答題，也有考察學生英語綜合套用能力的語篇複述題。此外，每篇文章都配有內容豐富翔實的背景知識介紹，文章中出現的生詞皆標註音標，難句均配以中文翻譯，以幫助學生更好地理解聽力原文、提高聽力水平。
