英语“硬新闻”的播读与播报样本(体育新闻)
“英语体育新闻”的播读原理
因为是对体育新闻事件的介绍,就不会与内容所依托的文化背景及美学价值定位紧密相关,所以,就要求驾驭这一新闻类别的主播把握一个最基本的出发点:事实+激情化情绪。也就是说,“事实”部分还是一定要介绍清楚的,“激情化情绪”部分意味着从声音到外在表情,都是用“把受众的关注点”通过紧随赛场战况变化的“不确定”、“期盼”及“情绪近乎失控”的氛围带进人们对赛事期盼已久的心情里。进而,语调是如“一刻不容错过”,如与行进中的赛事般“跌宕起伏”、语速是随情绪急缓交加走的、语气是“紧张有序”而又“明了+点评”。

Training of Broadcast Announcing & Anchoring in English on Sports News
【Studio Lead-in】
MP:Live News,Live Information.You are listening to(watching)EBTV News with the latest Sports News with AAA from Beijing,the capital city of China.First let's figure out the headlines of the latest Sports News.
【Voice-over】
Impressive Lakers roll past Orlando in 2nd half.
Barca,Valencia rejects doping claims.
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
MP:Now it is in detail.Impressive Lakers roll past Orlando in 2nd half in LOS ANGELES.By the time Kobe Bryant talked himself into a little confidence in his swollen ankle in the second half,Andrew Bynum and the Los Angeles Lakers'reserves had already taken care of Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic.Our EBA Sports News Correspondent-1 is there.Hello,C-1.
【On-line broadcast reporting Stand-up on Spot】
C-1:Yes,MP and our audience.Pau Gasol scored 23 points,Bryant added 16 while playing on a sprained left ankle,and the Lakers roared away in the second half for their 10th win in 11 games,97-84 Monday night.
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
MP:We have observed that Bynum had 10 points,a career high-tying 18 rebounds and four blocks while hounding Howard into nine turnovers—four more than the entire Lakers squad—in another eye-catching low-post game for the Lakers'young center.
【On-line broadcast reporting Stand-up on Spot】
C-1:Indeed.It all added up to a rather easy night of work for Bryant,who decided to play despite seriously rolling his ankle during the third quarter of Saturday's win at Dallas.Bryant,[quote]“It was more mental”[the quote is over].Bryant went 7 for 19 and missed eight shots in the first half.Bryant also said,[quote]“It affected my bounce a little bit just because of the trust factor,just trusting it in the first half.Then at halftime,I just gave it a little pep talk.”[the quote is over]
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
MP:The previous report said that Bryant can afford to be cautious while his Lakers are on their most impressive streak of the season.Thanks to the Los Angeles reserves'decisive rally early in the fourth quarter,Bryant had to play just 30 minutes.
【On-line broadcast reporting Stand-up on Spot】
C-1:That's right.It is quite exciting in the stadium so far.Back to you,studio.
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
MP:Many thanks,C-1.Lamar Odom scored 16 points as the two-time defending champions opened a seven-game home-stand with another win over an elite team after an early season filled with flops against the NBA's best.The Lakers(48-20)also drew virtually even with the Dallas Mavericks(47-19)for second place in the Western Conference standings.Our EBTV Sports News Correspondent C-2 is there.Hello,C-2.
【On-line broadcast reporting Stand-up on Spot】
C-2:Yes,MP.In my hand is what I got from the local reports about Bynum's comments.Bynum said[quote]“We want to win every game on this home stretch here.(Howard)is a great player who's going to get his numbers,but we started scoring,too.”[the quote is over].Derek Fisher scored 15 points for the Lakers,who have the next three days off before lowly Minnesota visits on Friday.Los Angeles already had beaten San Antonio,Dallas,Atlanta(twice)and Oklahoma City since the break before this stirring second-half effort against the talented Magic,who appears entrenched in fourth place in the East.C-2,EBTV Sports.
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
MP:Many thanks to you,C-2.Howard had 22 points and 15 rebounds for the Magic,who couldn't get rolling offensively in the second half of this 2009 NBA finals rematch.The Lakers all remembered last month's meeting in Orlando,when Howard dominated with 31 points and 13 rebounds while barely missing a shot.Our EBTV Sports correspondent C-3 has something to say from the spot.Hello,C-3.What have you gotten?We are so curious!
【On-line broadcast reporting Stand-up on Spot】
C-3:Yes,Indeed.I do understand.So,you can notice what is in my hand.Yes,Howard said,[quote]“I just think they came out and played better in the second half,especially with their post defense”.“They squared everybody in the paint and they force me to make plays out to my teammates.They made it tough for me to score.We've just got to learn how to play through it.”[the quote is over]
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
MP:The Magic led throughout the first half,but the Lakers pushed ahead early in the third quarter.They didn't pull away until a lineup stacked with reserves made an 18-5 run spanning the final two quarters,running Orlando's starters off the court.
【On-line broadcast reporting Stand-up on Spot】
C-3:Los Angeles went ahead 85-69 on Odom's 3-pointer with 7∶14 to play,and the Magic never got closer than 11 points after that.Lakers coach Phil Jackson said[quote].“We had a good second half,got our offense running a little bit,got some steals and some easy baskets.(Bynum)did an adequate job on Howard,and he did a great job on the boards.I think Orlando faded a little bit.They were tired after that back-to-back.[the quote is over]
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
MP:Ryan Anderson and Jameer Nelson scored 13 points apiece for the Magic.Coach Stan Van Gundy left his starters in the blowout until the final buzzer of Orlando's fourth stop on a five-game road trip ending in Milwaukee.“We didn't play with as much energy in the second half,”Van Gundy said.“A good part of that is their defense.Give them credit,but we didn't move the ball the way that we should have.Bottom line is the game comes down to turnovers and rebounding.”
【On-line broadcast reporting Stand-up on Spot】
C-3:Bynum's improved play has been a major reason for Los Angeles'surge after the All-Star break.The 23-year-old with creaky knees still isn't in perfect health after missing the start of the season,but he soundly outplayed Howard early.C-3,EBTV Sports.
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
MP:Yes.Bynum got more cheers than Bryant when both left the game in the final minutes.Here we have gotten Hudgens'comment.[quote]“He's consistently performing this way,so we expect it from him,”Bryant said.“This is how he should play,and this is how he's going to play.”[the quote is over]
【Studio lead-in】
MP:Live News,Live Information.You are listening to(watching)EBTV with the latest Sports News from Beijing,the capital city of China.Now let's move to Spain.We can rethink something over there.Barca,Valencia rejects doping claims.First,our sports correspondent-4 is there.Hi,C-4.
【On-line broadcast reporting Stand-up on Spot】
C-4:Yes,hi,you both.The Spanish football giants Barcelona and Valencia on Monday rejected allegations by a Spanish radio station that they may be involved in doping.Barcelona“wishes to publicly express its total indignation at these unfounded references which link the club to doping practices”while Valencia described the allegations on the Catholic radio station Cadena Cope as“false.”FP.
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
FP:Cadena Cope on Sunday quoted a“representative”of Real Madrid,who was not identified,as saying the club planned to[quote],“ask the Spanish football federation for serious anti-doping controls.”[the quote is over]
【On-line broadcast reporting Stand-up on Spot】
C-4:Yes.It said Real could not understand how Eufemiano Fuentes,a doctor who was one of six people charged in December with trafficking offences in an athletics doping probe dubbed Operation Galgo,could have worked for“a first division club,specifically Valencia,curiously when it won two championships”.Valencia won the Spanish league in 2002 and 2004.Cadena Cope also said Real“could not understand how other doctors of a doubtful reputation can work for FC Barcelona.”
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
MP:According the earlier information,the Spain's secretary of state for sport,Jaime Lissavetzky,said he was not aware of any request from Real Madrid to change doping rules.I quote here,“Spanish football is clean.We follow every guideline set out by FIFA and UEFA in this regard,”[the quote is over]
【On-line broadcast reporting Stand-up on Spot】
C-3:Barcelona said in a statement it[quote]“is demanding an immediate rectification and wishes to let it be known that its legal department is studying possible legal action to defend the club's honor,alongside that of its coaching staff,players and medical staff and is prepared to take such action to its final consequences.”[the quote is over]
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
FP:Valencia said it had“never worked”with Fuentes or been“advised directly or indirectly by him.”Talking about this point,our ENA Sports News correspondent-4 has gotten something.Hi,C-5.
【On-line broadcast reporting Stand-up on Spot】
C-5:Yes,FP and our audience.A Real spokeswoman said“there is no official announcement at the moment”from the club in response to the radio report.The club has looked on enviously in recent years as Barcelona has dominated the league and flourished in Europe winning the Champions League twice since Real's last victory in 2002.So far,it is.Back to you,studio.
【On-line broadcast reading in Studio】
MP:Barcelona's edge over Real at the top of La Liga was cut to five points on Sunday after they were held to a 1-1 draw at Sevilla.Valencia is in third place,21 points behind Barcelona.This is all the latest EBA Sports News.
【Studio Lead-in】
MP:Live News,Live Information.This is EBTV News with the latest Sports News.I am AAA.We are from Beijing,the capital city of China.Now let's review the headlines of the latest EBTV Sports News.

Barca,Valencia reject doping claims.
Now it's EBA News Weather Forecast.Hi,WP.
这部分节选的对“英语硬新闻”播读训练的稿件部分,主要是针对男女播音员对驾驭“英语硬新闻”中的“体育新闻”的“播读”技能的部分。在这一部分里,虽然各人分摊的每条新闻内容并不长,但是按照业界的标准来设计的。这样的长度,不仅可以形成有效的播读韵律,而且还可以形成受众在接受效果方面的视听交替效应,达到较佳的接受心理状态。
对于驾驭“英语硬新闻”中的“体育新闻”的播读过程里,影响新闻经过播音员处理后的播送效果之最为重要的因素,同样可以概括为气息(Breath)、情绪(Mood)、意群(Sensegroup)、团队(Teamwork)四个方面。
(一)英语硬新闻之体育新闻的播报气息
Breathing of Broadcast Hardnews in English[Sports]
From the first class of the broadcast announcing and anchoring training course,the EBA members have been told to practice the length of their breathing and try to maintain it steadily and smoothly while delivering all kind of news.However,without consistent practice,they would find themselves unable to hold their breath steady enough,not to mention under the circumstances of being so nervous when sitting in the radio broadcast booth or in front of the TV camera.
When they were nervous,they would feel themselves under great stress and just could not inhale enough and exhale evenly,which would result in their intermittent broadcast.Also,the contents of the news matter a lot.When it comes to Sports News,the length of each sentences seem not so long if we compared them with other types of news.But Sports News delivery requires the stresses on the numbers or the scores,on the names of the players,on the names of the teams,etc.These requirements really demand the announcers or anchors to have strong and stable breathing.
And one more thing one must be aware of here is that the words shown on the autocue were so limited that it was really hard for them to know where better control is or to take a proper inhalation even though they had got some time to prepare on their scripts.Thus,one can draw a conclusion that practicing the length of the breath is of great importance and of basic.Not only should we pay more attention to it,but we should persist in practicing it as well as we have started our work on this career.
(二)英语硬新闻之体育新闻的播报情绪
Mood of Broadcast Hardnews in English[Sports]
The first thing came to our mind was about the emotion or mood when we got the scripts of the Broadcast Sports News in English.Basically speaking,there's no doubt that the broadcast announers or anchors for the Broadcast Sports News in English should be energetic and passionate.And it is much better for us to be sports fans,so we can almost know enough about the teams,players,rules of different kinds of sports,and then can read the news with more fluency and proper mood.
During the preparation process,one should try to immerse her/himself in the heat of sports fans and imagined oneself in an online news reporting.But that was totally not the case when the EBA trainees were in front of the cameras because we cared only about the scripts rolling out on the autocue.As for some of us,for instance,we know something about basketball matches.
So it didn't trouble us a lot when reading some terms and names of players and teams.But we might be weaker in football matches.When we were preparing for the scripts,we could find it uncomfortable to articulate those words about football clearly.What'more,we could think that we should learn how to control our mood on an average line even if we might miss some words or misread some words.Mistakes would only be much amplified if we,ourselves,got upset or nervous in front of the cameras when making mistakes.
(三)英语硬新闻之体育新闻的播报意群
Sense-group of Broadcast Hardnews in English[Sports]
The sense-group is one of the essential elements for the Broadcast Sports News in English delivery.Suppose we were one of the audiences,we might not need to get every word of the news exactly and concisely.Instead,we would just try to catch the key points and main ideas of the news.And here,sense group counts a lot.
So during the preparation process,the most important thing we should do is to scan quickly and go through the main ideas of the news,and then try to figure out and mark out the sense groups.With different signs and marks,sense groups would be formed in our mind.In the Broadcast Sports News in English,the most basic sense-groups are those numbers and technical terms.
For instance,here the sentence goes,“We have observed/that Bynum had 10 points,/a career high-/tying 18 rebounds/and four blocks/while hounding Howard into nine turnovers.”In this sentence,scores and numbers are specially stressed and emphasized in order to provide audiences with exact statistics which are more convincing than describing with words.
Moreover,technical terms like“rebound”,“block”and“turnover”should also be marked out and divided into different sense groups.
(四)英语硬新闻之体育新闻的播报团队
Teamwork of Broadcast Hardnews in English[Sports]
Broadcast Sports News in English delivery on live is not about the announcer or anchor her/himself or an individual,but a matter of teamwork and cooperation.With this awareness,there are two parts are so enssential.
Firstly,proper cooperate with co-anchor.During the preparation,one hardly had the chance to practice or discuss with her/his co-anchor because we only have very basic information in hand.So,when the two were sitting there in front of the cameras,it seemed that the two announcers were in their own world and focusing only on their own parts of scripts.No mutual communication or eye contacts or body languages,which would make the whole scene so weird and uncomfortable.Also,when the autocue did not work on live,the two would not react properly and immediately if the two did not generate the inspiration based on the match scenes.This can be explained that maybe the two just didn't free their own minds totlally,and did not get the tacit understanding of delivering the Sports News on live.Especially the two were not mature and tactful enough to play the programme on live as the drama actors when emergency really happened.Don't be scared by the unpredictable situations appering,just control it because you have been given the right to control them.
Secondly,cooperate with Correspondents.When communicating with correspondents,anchors are bound to give some responses,rather than looking at the shooting machine blankly and without any expression.Simply nodding the head and taking notes are necessary and proper.Furthermore,in some cases,if emergencies happen,the anchor and the correspondent should be able to keep calm and say some linking words to save the condition.Try to talk with the correspondent like talking with a friend.That will make the mutual communication more natural and acceptable.“It's easier said than done.”And after experiencing being an anchor and a correspondent in the studio,I have to say,it seems easy when we are watching others presenting news on TV,but nobody can imagine the hardness and great efforts everyone has to pay and make behind and in front of the scene.It's a matter of comprehensive capability,including good command of English,correct sense of news and scripts,calmness and tact under emergencies,and resistant strength and faith both physically and mentally.
