To write a great news story, you have to make sure it is correct, relevant (相關(guān)的) and fresh.

For a start, all the information in a story must be correct. Not only the spelling and grammar, but also the facts.

Any mistakes that show up in a story can get a newspaper into big trouble.

For example, if a newspaper said that Yang Liwei was the first man to go into space, it would be wrong. He wasn’t the first. The newspaper would probably lose lots of readers because of that mistake.

A news story does not only have to be correct, but it must also be relevant to its readers. People are mostly interested in news that happens near to them. That’s why you care more about what happens at your school than at schools in America. It’s also why newspapers in Beijing don’t talk much about news in Shanghai or Hong Kong.

Make sure it’s fresh.

Finally, news must always be fresh. When you pick up your evening newspaper, you want to read about news that happened that day. You don’t want to read about news from last week!

So, now you know what makes a good news story. Have a look at our paper and see if it’s full of good news! You can try writing a news story for our paper like a real reporter.

1.What will happen if there is a mistake in a newspaper?

A. The reporter will probably have a lot of trouble.

B. The newspaper would attract more readers.

C. Many readers won’t buy the newspaper any more.

D. The reporter won’t be able to write for the newspaper again.

2.Why would it be wrong for a newspaper to say that Yang Liwei was the first man to go into space?

A. Because the information was not fresh.

B. Because the information was not correct.

C. Because the information was not relevant.

D. Because the information was not useful.

3.People are mostly interested in news that happens near to them, so newspapers in Beijing talk much about news in .

A. Nanjing B. Shanghai

C. Beijing D. Hong Kong

4.Where does the writer work most probably?

A. In a newspaper. B. In a shop.

C. In a library. D. In a bank.

5.Which can be the BEST title for the passage?

During the 2016 Rio Olympics, people were surprised to see the round, purple marks on the body of the famous American swimmer Michael Phelps. What happened to him? In fact, he just visited a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and

had “cupping”(撥火罐).

Massage(按摩) and acupuncture(針灸) are two other important kinds of TCM. Chinese massage can make you relaxed and fresh. In acupuncture, doctors put long needles(針) into the patients’ heads, faces, arms. It takes away pain, though the look is funny.

TCM is an important part of Chinese culture. The earliest medical classic in China, Huangdi’s Classic on Medicine, came out more than 2,000 years ago. The book is about the relationship between man and nature. In Chinese culture, yin and yang are the two parts of nature. Nature keeps balanced(平衡) if yin and yang work well together. The human body needs such a balance, too. TCM helps to do that. Quite specially, for some health problems, a doctor of TCM will not give you medicine. Instead, he may give you just a food plan and right ways to eat.

For example, it is common to eat on the way to school, at our desk, or in front of the TV. But TCM thinks it’s wrong. Here are the correct ways: Sit down to eat. While eating, turn off the TV and get away from the work desk. Eat seasonal foods. Do not miss any of the three meals. Also, get your body moving often, just as the saying goes, “Running water is never stale.”

Nowadays, traditional Chinese medicine is becoming more and more popular around the world. A government report says that people in 183 countries and areas are now using TCM.

A. to introduce a doctor of TCM B. to give an example of using cupping

3.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 means “__________” in Chinese.

A. 水到渠成 B. 流水不腐 C. 柔情似水 D. 綠水長流

(1=Para.(自然段) 1 ?2=Para. 2 ?3=Para. 3 „4=Para. 4 …5=Para. 5)
