They discuss the main events of the day. Reporters are then sent to cover the events. HOW A NEWSPAPER IS PRODUCED As soon as
6、 the reporters know what to write about, they get down to work. They telephone people and fix a time for a face-to-face interview with them. Some-times they do telephone interviews. Checking information is very important. They go to the news-papers own library to look up any information that they ne
7、ed. This is called “doing ones homework”. At the same time, the picture editor decides which photographs are needed for the next days paper. Photographers are then sent to take the pictures. Sometimes old ones are used from the newspapers own picture library. Doing this can save a lot of time and mo

They must find out the new information as quickly as possible. A photographer is sent immediately to take photographs. All the people who work on a newsp
9、aper must be able to work fast. For example, there might be a big fire, or an important person might die. In this Later in the day, everything is put together at the news desk. Reporters return, type their stories into the computer and hand them to the editor. Photographers return and the photos are
10、 quickly developed. The chief editor decides which will be the most important story on the front page. Sometimes this will have to be changed if something more important happens late in the day. Other editors read the stories which the reporters have written and make any necessary changes. They also
11、 write the headlines for each story. Doing this is more difficult in English than in Chinese. In English the letter M is wider than the letter I, so editors must check that there is enough space for the headlines they have written. Finally, there is no more time left for adding new stories, and the
12、time for printing the news- paper has come. This is done on fast-moving printing machines. The newspapers are then delivered by lorry, plane or rail. Speed is important. People want to buy the latest newspaper; nobody wants to buy yesterdays. China has its own English language news-paper, China Dail
13、y , which is published in Beijing. It appears from Monday to Saturday with a Sunday edition of Business Weekly each week. It has all the usual sections of a newspaper, including Home News - news about China, International News - news from abroad, Business News, Travel News and Sports News. There are
14、 plenty of pictures, and a weather report every day. There are reports on new plays, movies, books, new restaurants and so on: There are also longer articles about businesses, or people with interesting jobs, or about different areas of China. Every Saturday there is a section about things to do at
15、the weekend and the TV programmes in the coming week . China Daily has plenty of advertisements, which help to cut the costs of making the newspaper. There are advertisements for computer companies, businesses, hotels, airlines, travel companies, jobs and so on. Many foreigners like to read this new
16、spaper. It is also popular with students of English, who read it in order to improve their English. Sun Yao, a student of English in Beijing, said, “I like reading China Daily. Learning new words and useful expressions is very important for me, so I read it every day. I can see how English is used i
17、n everyday life as well. Besides, I enjoy learning about new things from politics to sports and music.”1.The _ hold a meeting.chief editor2._ interview people and write stories.3._ take photographs.4._ are quickly developed.5.Editors _ the reporters.6.Editors write the _.7.the newspapers are _.8.The
