阅读理解 Newspapers are one method of bringing the news to the public. Reporters, photographers, correspondents, and editors are some of the people who create newspapers. They are known as journalists. Reporters are journalists who go out and get the news. They attend meetings. They cover events such as court cases, plays, and sporting events. They interview people to get their views about what is going on. Reporters must be able to write a story quickly so as to meet a deadline. People do not want to read old news. They want to know what is going on as soon as it happens. Reporters sometimes phone or email their notes and quotations (引用语) to the paper from the scene. A reporter in the office then writes the story. A 'stringer' is a parttime reporter who works when called on. A fire might break out in one part of town. An editor may ask a stringer who lives near the scene to cover the story. Reporters  often  work  with  photographers, or photojournalists. Photojournalists take the pictures that illustrate  (图解) the stories in a newspaper. They have to edit their pictures in time for them to appear with the story. A correspondent is a journalist who covers the news in a particular place or on a subject that he or she has special knowledge in. Large newspaper groups have correspondents in foreign countries to report the news there. A paper may have a correspondent who covers just medical news. An editor is a journalist who works at a desk in a newspaper office. Editors prepare the reporters' stories to be printed in the paper. They decide which story is most important and gets the frontpage headline. They decide which pictures to use. Editors do not often write the news, but they do write editorials (社论) in which they state their views on a topic or an issue. People who work as journalists have some things in common. They are curious, they like to write, and they have a 'nose for news'. They can spot news as it happens. They know what people want to read about. 1.
