I And LBC
LBC is a talk radio show which can be quite interesting and good for an English learner to listen to. LBC's full name is "Leading British's Conversation". You can download it on App, 24 hours real-time playing. It’s an entertaining, engrossing and intelligent conversation between the presenters and the call-in listeners, covering the thoughts and topics.
I like to listen to the LBC. I feel the British accent is good (?), and all of the topics are related to people's daily lives. Diverse presenters each has have their own unique style, and different listeners also each has have their own character and speech partterns. Some listeners are talkative person people, they have their own opinions. Sometimes they even argue with presenters due to different opinions. I think it's funny; it also tests the presenter's ability of humourous, resilience, and rich knowledges.
I started to listen to LBC four months ago. At first I couldn't understand most of it while listening. And I was familiar with the American accent rather than the British accent before. They spoke too quickly to hear clearly. But (Don't start a sentence with a preposition) I liked think that the British accent had has a great sense of rhythm. The conversation always talked about the things which are close to the ordinary life, such as supermarkets, taxis, religion and so on. Although it was not as useful (alt: informative) as the news, it made me felt feel relaxed and interesting interested. I remembered a Swiss person, whose Chinese was quite good, told me he listened the Chinese radio four to five hours every day at in the beginning. It was very helpful to his studying. So I wanted to have a try, I listened LBC as soon as I were was free. Even Sometimes I even listened to it casually while I did something else at home . Two weeks ago, suddenly I found I could understand lots of sentences what they said. It seems I have made the progress.
Although sometimes I still couldn't understand some sentences, I found out I could hear more and more. I listen to the LBC nearly two hours a day now. It's often my rest time when the radio plays the call number, weather forecast and advertisements. I prefer to listen to it in the morning and night, because (because and cause are two very different words) it's quiet and I can hear more clearly. I ever even heard a musician said like say this: "Every language is a music; it has its own rhythm, length of the sound and pitch of the voice." I listen to the LBC as soon as I wake up every morning, I regard it as the alarm clock in the morning. I hope one day I can understand it completely.
