《研究生英语视听说教程》根据研究生英语教学大纲的听说要求编写，是编者黄淑芳多年从事研究生英语教学的经验总结。教程内容丰富，题材广泛，情景生动，贴近生活，并特别注重语言的时代性、难度的循序渐进以及信息输入与输出的有机结合。教程编排由易到难，开始部分以慢速英语语料引入，再过渡至常速英语语料，难度逐渐增大，语言点逐渐增加。循序渐进的编排方法不仅有利于学生建立信心，也可供不同程度学生选择性使用。

选材贴近生活、贴近学生，语言点简单实用，易于掌握，有助于学生快速融入英语语言环境，提高学习兴趣。选材来源广泛，包括影视、访谈、新闻、演讲等；形式包括视听、练习、课堂活动等。教师可根据不同水平层次学生的特点选择引导型或开放型互动教学方式。

本教程提供大量视、听、说材料和练习，分学习、工作、生活、理财和娱乐五大主题模块，每一模块包含三个单元，分别涵盖各主题模块的不同侧面，全书共十五个单元。每一主题体现了鲜明的时代特征并提出引入深思的问题，不仅有利于教师引导学生训练和增强英语听说能力，实现英语口头表达言之有物、言之有理，而且有利于培养学生独立思考的习惯以及分析、探讨问题的思辨能力。
