记者英文采访过程中的常用句型

□王卫明熊婧婧沈栋琴纪佩吉①

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。

（一）采访初始

电视台的演播室采访或电话连线采访，开始时可以这样说：

1）Good to have you with us,Sir/Ms.

记者采访外国人时，如果觉得用英语对话有难度时，记者可以首先询问被采访者是否懂中文，如果被访者懂中文那采访自然更顺利。记者可以这样说：

1）Can you speak Chinese

2）Can we talk with each other in Chinese

（二）采访新闻诸要素

采访的基本内容包括5个“W”和一个“H”(即 What, When, Why, Where, Who, How)对这几个关键问题，常见的提问句型有：

关于Who，可以这样问：

1）Who is involved in …

例句：Who is involved in it
