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 part-time reporter who works when called upon.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 photog-raphers,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 front-page 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.

After spending a year in Brazil on a student exchange program, her mother recalled(回忆)，Marie Colvin returned home to find that her classmates had narrowed down their college choices."Everyone else was already admitted to college,"her mother, Rosemarie Colvin,said from the family home. "So she took our car and drove up to Yale and said,‘You have to let me in.’ ”
"Impressed-she was a National Merit (全国英才)finalist who had picked up Portuguese in Brazil-Yale did,admitting her to the class of 1978,where she started writing for the Yale Daily News and decided to be a journalist,"her mother said.
On Wednesday,Marie Colvin,56,an experienced journalist for The Sunday Times
of London,was killed as Syrian forces shelled (炮击)the city of Homs. She was working in a temporary media centre that was destroyed in the attack.
"She was supposed to leave Syria on Wednesday,”Mrs Colvin said.“Her editor
told me he called her yesterday and said it was getting too dangerous and they wanted to take her out.She said she was doing a story and she wanted to finish it."
Mrs Colvin said it was pointless to try to prevent her daughter from going to conflict zones.“If you knew my daughter,”she said, "it would have been such a waste of words. She was determined;she was enthusiastic about what she did.It was her life.There was no saying‘Don't do this.’This is who she was,absolutely who she was and what she believed in:cover the story,not just have pictures of it,but bring it to life in the deepest way you could.”“So it was not a surprise when she took an interest in journalism,"her mother said.
25.From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1,we can infer that______.
A.Yale was her last choice
B.Marie Colvin was confident of herself
C.Yale must keep its promise to Marie Colvin

A.d→e→c→a→b
B.b→c→d→e→a

27.From the last paragraph,we can know that Mrs Colvin_______.

With brightly coloured pieces and a seemingly simple layout,Marble Circuit doesn't present as a tough logic game-but don't underestimate(低估)its difficulty.After drawing a challenge card,players must arrange and fill in holes on the game board to allow the right number of marbles to run through the channels and into each box at the
bottom of the board.Because it requires more patience and abstract,special thinking skills than some other kinds of logic puzzles,Marble Circuit is recommended for the over-8 crowd.(Mind Ware,$24.95)
Botzees
Kids can follow directions or use their imaginations to build a robot out of the 130
blocks,and then command it to dance,sing, drum and light up with the companion app on a smart device(设备)or tablet.Though the robot-building appealed to younger testers, kids aged 5 and up enjoyed the toy's advanced features. (Pai Technology,$99.99)

A young man had bought an old house that was in bad shape,but he and his wife
believed they could restore it.They immediately went to work Their goal was to have the old building look best for the Christmas Eve get-together.
Just two days before Christmas,however,a storm swept through the area,leaving
a hole in the wall of the house.There was obviously no time to repair the damage before Christmas.The sad couple attended local auction(拍卖)that afternoon..One of the items put up for bids(竞标)was an old gold-and-ivory-coloured tablecloth.Seized by an inspiration,the young man was the highest bidder at $6.50.His idea was to hang the cloth to cover the ragged hole.
On the day before Christmas,it was snowy.As the young man unlocked the house
door,he noticed an old woman standing at the bus stop.He knew the bus wouldn't be there within at least half an hour,so he invited her inside to keep warm.
When the old woman walked in and saw the tablecloth,she rushed at it and said excitedly,"It's mine.It is my tablecloth."She told the surprised man its history and even showed him her name in one corner of the tablecloth.She and her husband had once lived in Vienna,Austria,and their village was hit by a deadly disease.So they decided to flee to Switzerland,but her husband told her to leave first,saying he had something urgent to deal with.A few days later,it was reported that the bus her husband took fell off the cliff and he was never to be found.Her husband was
believed to have died.Touched by her story,the young man asked about her address,
planning to send the tablecloth to her after Christmas.As the bus came,she left.
When the Christmas Eve came,the man invited his friends to come to his house to enjoy the dinner together.In the candlelight of the Christmas Eve,the tablecloth looked even more beautiful As the man's friends left the house,they thanked the man for his arrangement and mentioned how beautiful the house looked.

Paragraph 1:
One older gentleman stayed,admiring the tablecloth.
He said to the young man,"It's strange.Many years ago my wife used such a tablecloth only on very special occasions.But we lived in Vienna then.Where did you get this one "sighed the old man,tears streaming down his cheeks.The young man told him what happened that day when he met an old lady.With the trembling old man at his side,he telephoned the family and decided to visit the old woman.
Paragraph 2:
The young man drove the old man to that old woman's home.Together they knocked on her apartment door.When she opened it,the young man witnessed the tearful,joyful and thrilling reunion of husband and wife.If the chain of events had been broken,the husband and his wife might never have found each other.It was the tablecloth that made an extremely lucky ending.Love is like a journey,starting at forever and ending at never.
