你不可能要求外国人用SpecialEnglish的语速说话给你听。事实上Special English和正常的说话之间的差别并不是大家想的那么小，而语速对听力的影响更不是想象中那么微弱，往往是起了决定性的影响的。因为正常语速跟慢速之间不同的地方实在太多，譬如连读、省略、轻读、模糊等等，这些都是影响听懂与否的关键要素。SpecialEnglish里全是完整的句子，可是实际上正常的说话表达才不需要那么正儿八经呢？你是否有信心听懂？况且SpecialEnglish里更遇不到丰富的词汇，复杂的结构。听了几个月或半年的特别英语，别想自己还是特别的了，听听正常的东西吧。但是，我还认为，VOASpecial English应该不间断的听，只是不能把重点放在上面了。因为VOA Special English不但是入门英语中不可多得的听力材料，也是纠正发音的绝佳材料。无论你英语学习到达了什么程度，我到希望你能够不断听SpecialEnglish。专心我们记忆单词平时是用眼看心记，虽然你是认识了这个单词，但很可能你还是听不懂这个单词，听力练习时是用耳朵对单词的再熟悉。精听了一盒磁带你用耳朵记忆了这盒磁带里所有的单词和句子、发音、语调等等。泛听十盒磁带，你记不了多少东西的。泛听泛听有精听得不到的东西，强调的是：语速、语调。让你习惯正常的语速。我们在精听时都是不断反复听同一句话的，可是实际上别人只会说一次给你听。请在泛听中让自己习惯别人用正常语速，只说一次的情况。你不会要求预报天气的说一句后又重复一次吧。精听不赞成听每一篇听力材料都听写。原因之一是听力有时候更多注重“量”。你没有听过的东西即使是汉语你也大概不会懂吧。我的建议是：挑选认为典型的材料再听写。那么精听要精到什么程度呢？听一句复述一句，或者就跟着录音一起读。（当然是不能看着文本啦）这样效果不比听写查，所费时间要省得多。看电影听实时广播是泛听，看电视是泛听，尽可能接触更多正常的原始音频。你可以反反复复听同一盒磁带，直到兴味索然。只要不停顿就是泛听。泛听过程中，你也可以将录音就转为精听。并没有严格的界限。只是要记得，泛听的目的是让自己习惯正常的语速，或者说，习惯外国人的正常的交流是怎样的。关注的是语速、连读、略音等等只有连续说话才会有的东西。
