On October 19，1959，the first Special English program was broadcast on the Voice of America．It was an experiment．The goal was to municate by radio in clear and simple English with people whose native language was not English．Experts said the goal was admirable，but the method would not work．However， ．The Special English programs quickly became some of the most popular on VOA．And they still are．
Forty years later，Special English continues to municate with people who are not fluent in English．But during the years its role has expanded．It also helps people learn American-English．It succeeds in helping people learn English in a non-traditional way．And it provides listeners, even those who are native English speakers, with information they cannot find elsewhere.
Today，Special English broadcasts around the world seven days a week，five times a day．Each half-hourly broadcast begins with ten minutes of the latest news followed by 20minutes of feature programming．There is a different short feature every weekday about science，development，agriculture，and environment，and on the weekends about news events and American idioms．These programs are followed by in-depth(深入的)15 minutes features about American culture，history，science，medicine，space，important people or short stories．
