From the developer:
SpeakLine lets your Mac talk to you. To ensure that your text is recited properly, you can choose between different tones. Change the language with a few simple clicks as well (Since OS X Lion those options are provided internationally by Apple).
Depending on the situation, you might want to change the reading speed to fully comprehend or evaluate the given text.
