So a newspaperman always likes to get some information from someone who was there, which can be given in the person’s own words. Because he can use only a few words , the newspaperman must choose those words carefully, every one must be effective(有效地). Instead of “ he called out in a loud voice”, he writes “ he shouted”; instead of “ the loose stones rolled noisily down the side of the mountain”, he will write “ they thundered down the mountainside”.

most important thing you own, so it needs proper treatment and proper
nourishment. The old saying “An apple a day keep the doctor away” is not as silly as some people think. The body needs fruit and
vegetables because they contain vitamin C. Many people take extra vitamin in
pill form, believing that these will make them healthy. But a good diet is made
up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins, so why waste money on
them?

their stomachs, eating hurriedly and carelessly. The list of illness caused or
