每年全国人大常委会都要召开多次会议,审议各种法律的修订案。这是一个重要的新闻源,报道很多。这类报道的通常模式,是比较法律的修订部分与原来条文表述的差异,或展示增添部分,给予解释。变动产生新闻,这些内容自然具有很高的新闻价值。然而,我们关于这个话题的报道,常见的时态是肯定性的“将”如何,甚至是现在时态。这就成问题了。 The NPC Standing Committee has held many meetings each year to consider the amendment of various laws. This is an important news source, a lot of coverage. The usual pattern of such reports is to compare the differences between the revised part of the law and the original one, or to show the added part for explanation. Changes generate news, these naturally have a high news value. However, the common tenses we report on this topic are affirmative, “how” and even the present tense. This is a problem.
