学习原则
《穿越时空：来自北美的最新报道》系列的每一版包括一盘磁带和一本练习册。练习册的设置遵循如下语言学习原则：
l）语言技能并不是孤立的。听和说是紧密联系的，阅读和写作同样有助于听力理解。
2）交流是最好的语言学习手段。听众应该尽量寻找机会与别人交流。
3）听力理解能力的提高离不开练习。听的时候，应带着目的去听并且运用已经听懂的信息做练习。
4）一定的技能技巧能帮助听力理解。完成我们精心设计的练习后，即可掌握这些技巧。
听力技能技巧

更为常用的听力技巧是做重点摘记。重点摘记主要是围绕一个总的问题记下辅助观点和细节，这个总的问题是记者所选择的焦点或要点，他通过采访、解释或评论展开报道。重点摘记的目的是使你对广播报道的组织有一个感性认识，了解记者是如何采访问题的。
本系列将帮助听众掌握一整套实用的听力技能和技巧，促进听力理解。所涉及的技能技
巧包括：
l）找出听力信息的整体结构。
2）抓住引出主题思想的提示。
3）主题思想后面常常带有详细解释。
4）重要信息是经常重复的。
5）识别关键信息（主题思想及细节），并能和非关键信息（例如：旁白、个人评论、口误、插入语）区分开。
6）推测将会听到的内容有助于迅速、清晰地辨别论点。
7）运用听到的信息做练习能增强听力。

序言
The Radio Wave
PREFACE
The Programs
The Radio Wave series brings authentic-quality radio reports into the domain of the ESL or EFL learner. The series includes six programs: the health Edition, the Entertainment Edition, the Business Edition, the Environment Edition, the Sports Edition, and the Music Edition. Each program features five-minute report in a "newsmagazine" format. The information is presented in a style that blends jounalistic and academic formats. These programs open the doors to a wealth of North American culture in a radio format that is typically American.The student will learn about current topics that are heard on radio and television, in public discussion, in academic, professional, and social situations. This series allows the learner to become more comfortable with and confident about listening to radio reports. In short, Radio Waves brings real-world listening and exciting ideas into the learner's realm of experience.
Language Principles
Each of the editions in the Radio Waves series includes a tape and a workbook. The workbook materials are based on a set of fundamental language-learning and teaching principles. These principles include the following:
1. Skills are not acquired in isolation. Listening is intimately tied to speacking, and reading and writing about what was heard help improve listening comprehension.
2. Language learning in the classroom is best facilitated by interaction. The learner should have many opportunuties to exchange information with others.
3. Listening comprehension develops as the learner listens actively to complete a task. The learner has a purpose in listening and can use what has been understood.
4. A learner uses certain skills and strategies to understand what is heard. These can be identified and improved on through the undertaking of a well-designed task or series of tasks.
Skills and Strategies
Radio Waves is designed to help the learner acquire the skills and strategies needed to get more from listening. The series makes listening to and understanding radio reports easier. The skills and strategies that are used and developed are transferable to other listening context, such as formal and informal social settings and academic settings.
The principal skills developed are listening for main ideas and note taking. The series shows the learner how to find and state the main ideas in a report. The learner is guided in learning to take notes from radio reports.Some programs in the series teach the learner to recognize the organization of journalistic reports that follow an academic format. THese programs present a series of main ideas and supporting points, and elaborate on each sequence.
An approach more frequently used in this series is focused note taking. Taking focused notes involves writing supporting points and details related to a general question. The general question reflects an important point or idea the reporter chooses to focus on and develop, either through interviews or through explanations and commentary on the topic. The purpose of focused note taking is to sensitize the learner to the organization of radio reports, which can often be determined from the reporters' questions or the selection of issues for the program.
This series helps the learner to develop a number of useful strategies so that listening can be approached with more cinfidence. The learner needs to be shown how to carry out a number of different learning tasks. To acomplish this the learner should know which strategies to use and develop. These strategies include the following:
1. Looking for the overall structure of the information.
2. Knowing the singals used to introduce main points.
3. Knowing that main points or ideas are usually followed by information that elaborates on those ideas.
4. Knowing that information is often restated.
5. Recognizing key information(main ideas and details) and distinguishing it from unimportant information, ffor example, asides, personal remarks, and certain features of spoken language such as false starts or interrupters.
