新闻的结构是:事件+细节+结果。在听第一段时就可以知道What’s happening.“The first prototype of an sircraft intended to revolutionize travel and shatter speed records was destroyed during its maiden fight on Saturday after a booster rocket carrying it a loft veered out of control and tumbled from the sky.”其中“shatter”为“to break or burst suddenly into pieces,as with a violent blow”;“maiden”为“earliest,first”主要的;“veer”为“to turn aside from a course,direction,or purpose”转变;“tumble”为“fall or roll end over end”颠倒。
