□ 王卫明 熊婧婧 沈栋琴 纪佩吉
随着对外开放的不断深入,中国记者采访外国人的机会越来越多,采访外国人的需要也比以往更为迫切,大多数记者都可能遇到采访外国人的情形,这时,“使用英语这一国际通用语言进行采访”便成为许多新闻记者希望掌握或需要掌握的本领。
但是,目前国内的新闻教育(包括《英语新闻》和《英美报刊选读》课程在内),缺乏对有关英语采访知识的介绍,在网上也难以检索到直接可用的资料。因此,相当多的记者(即使英语口语特别好)在采访外国人过程中颇为尴尬,不知道如何用英文表达某些语句,因此丧失采访良机。经过对真实采访案例的分析及翻译,我们归纳出英文采访过程中的常用句型和语句,供各位记者参考、仿用。
