1 This newspaper's full of photographs and advertising: there's very little real news.

2 I'd really like to be a photographer and spend the whole day taking photographs!

3 Only a few of our features are written by our journalists: we get most of them from freelance writers.

4 There are quite a few mistakes in this TV guide: I've found one on every page so far.

5 I'm afraid we can't use your article: very few of our readers are interested in ferrets.

6 The photographer gave me a number of photos to use with this story, but none of them is quite right.

11 Choose the correct answers (a-d).

When it comes to writing a news story, there are 1) several important rules which 2) most journalists are taught. Firstly, they learn to use an upside down pyramid: this 'inverted' pyramid represents the news story. In this structure 3) all the most newsworthy information comes first, then, as the story goes on, the details are explained. The first paragraph, or 'lead', should contain enough information to give the reader a good overview of 4) the whole story. This means that if the editor cuts the last paragraph because of space limitations, the reader will still have a summary of the story and 5) a few additional details.

Another 'key' thing reporters learn is to make sure they ask the five 'W' questions: what, who, where, when, why. 6) Any good news story provides answers to 7) each of these questions. If it doesn't, the writer can be sure that it will come back to them for 8) a little revision. Finally, they learn to keep their sentences and paragraphs short, and not to use 9) lots of heavily descriptive language. When a story is finished, they go through it and try to remove 10) any words which aren't necessary.

One

I have chosen this photo partly because it has a lot of personal, um significance for me. I ve been to England a few times, and there are quite a few things in the photo that make it instantly recognisable as England. There are the strong colours: the green of of the trees, and the bright red, against the white of

the buildings. Then there s the fact that all this takes place on a typical English street except in a way it s not typical, because there are no people there so you have this sense of emptiness, too. But of course, what s particularly striking about it is the image of the destruction of a London icon the famous red double-decker bus it looks as if it was made of cardboard, or something, that has just been torn apart And, and the way that, in contrast, another British icon, the red-letter box, is just standing there, still in one piece almost defiantly , you could say like the people of the city. But the main reason that I chose the photo is that I was actually in London at the time. I was doing an English course there and I travelled to school on the underground every day. I do remember being very scared at first, and thinking that maybe I should come home, but I decided not to And I m glad, because the atmosphere was really amazing there during the time immediately after the bombings. I think what I remember most clearly is the way Londoners just carried on with their lives as normal, they even went on travelling on public transport for many that was the only way they could get to work. They seemed so strong, and um so resilient it was as if they were saying You can t frighten us, we ve been through worse things than this . I think they were incredibly brave, and it was this courage of theirs that made the greatest impression on me, and so that s the concept that the photo represents for me.

Who can forget that terrible day? I know I sat watching the television reports in disbelief it was such a tragic end to the year. At first, when I looked at this photo, and the caption underneath it, I thought it should represent peace because I was thinking of, kind of spiritual peace for all the relatives of people who died, as they remember their loved ones. It s true that it does have a peaceful feeling about it, too, with the lights glowing in the darkness. But then I looked at it closely again and thought about the the sheer size and number of lamps that are being released into the sky, I mean, that would ve been such a wonderful sight to see, wouldn t it? And I decided that it should represent something more positive for the future like hope hope that we ll never ever have a natural disaster like this again, that somehow we ll be better prepared with warning systems and so on, and be able to save people I think the photo itself is absolutely stunning. I just wish that I could take photographs like that! I think what the photographer has managed to capture so well is a feeling of upward movement. The people really look as if they are having to hold the lamps down, in case they get carried away by them into the night And then you look at those specks in the sky and suddenly realise that they are not fireflies, but thousands of lamps as big as the ones on the beach, which are just floating away into well, space It s this sense of infinity that makes the photo so special for me.
