Firstly, it is important to report new events. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet, newspapers give about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print totally different stories to those on TV.
Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and . People don’t want to read stories about everyday life. As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be “bad’ news. For example, newspapers
tell stories about planes landing safely,
, they tell stories about plane crashes. In addition, many people are interested in news in foreign countries while others prefer to read stories about people, places and events in their own country. So the stories on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American newspapers.
Hundreds of years ago, news was carried from place to place by people on foot or by horse. It took days, weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories
by watching TV or reading newspapers.
Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life the 18th century. Many countries have
different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?

A Student Budget(预算)
College is an exciting time to learn and to make friends that will last a lifetime. Many students do not like to worry about money, and they would rather not think about it. But, it doesn’t matter whether a student’s parents pay for everything, or whether the students works part-time to help pay for his or her education. All students can get into money t__
The cost of a college education can be quite expensive. In English-speaking countries, the a_

Moblogging is done just for fun too. On some posted moblogs you can find photos of friends making funny faces, photos from people and photos of new babies. Other fun moblogs might be spotting famous people, pictures of food in restaurants, or new clothes.
However, moblogs can be dangerous, too. Not long ago in Korea, a woman’s dog made a mess on the train, but she to clean it up, became angry, and left. Her picture was taken and posted on the Internet,
the story of what she did. People all around the country were angry with her. Imagine how she felt!
Moblogging can be wonderful, but it is really impolite to post another person’s picture on the Internet without asking for permission. One idea from Japan may help: people can no longer take pictures with their cell phones, Japanese cell phones “click” like a real camera when you take a picture.
