3. How to become a journalist? 如何成为一名记者

考试时，在阅读理解或书面表达中可能要求我们阅读招聘启示或根据招聘启事写应聘信等，那么学习下面的段落并学会其中的重要表达会很有益处。

1）How difficult is it to get a job as a journalist?

You’ll probably need luck and persistence, but you’ll need a reasonable dose of those in doing the job too. I don’t think it’s harder than getting a job as a teacher or engineer. If you want to be a big name and front the TV news or hit the broadsheet cover pages, it’s going to take more work. But you’ll probably have to start at the same place.

注释：

persistence坚持不懈 dose 量，苦药 a big name很好的声望 front 位于......的前面

hit the broadsheet cover pages 登上报纸的封面页

2) What training should I take to be a journalist?

If you’re choosing a degree, it might make most sense to choose a non-media degree. That gives you a specialism to write about and you can always pick up the media training later. There are a lot of companies offering on the job training. The deal here is usually that they exploit you for the work, and you exploit them for the training. As long as they give you a real chance to learn

quickly, they’re a cheaper way to start than paying for a course.

注释：

degree 学位 specialism 专攻 deal 交易；协议 exploit 剥削，开发

3) What’s the best way to get into journalism?

By doing it. Once you have a piece published, you’re able to work your way up by sending copies of that with article proposals to editors on slightly bigger and/or more prestigious publications until you’re where you want to be. You can also write for local free sheets (which often won’t pay, but will give you a printed credit) and websites.

注释：

journalism 新闻业 work one’s way up 不断向上 proposal 提议 prestigious 有声望的

4) What can I do to become more employable?

* Learn photography.

* Learn HTML. It’s the language that websites are made of.

* Learn a foreign language.

* Make relevant contacts.

* Get work experience on the local paper or local radio station.

* Read widely.

* Keep up with media industry news.

注释：

relevant contacts 相关的社会关系 ■

5. 有用的句子----- 试试你会了吗？

His discussion with his new boss _____________________________ his life as a journalist.

写作运用

新闻报道

新闻报道属于说明类或记叙类的文章，是对最近发生的重点事实的报道。它需具有迅速、及时、简短、明了的特点。

如何写好新闻稿？

1. 新闻稿件的语言：

新闻报道的语言要平实、客观，不必追求过分花哨的词汇和过于复杂的句型。

2. 新闻稿件的要素

一篇新闻稿要包括五个“W”和一个“H”，即“when，where，who, what, why”和“how”。

3. 新闻报道的结构

一般来说，标题、导语和主体是构成新闻报道的必不可少的三部分。

标题是新闻的眼睛，标题拟的好，可以吸引读者。

导语是消息开头的第一段或第一句话，常包含what（事件）、when（时间）、where（地点）和who（人物），它必须简明、生动，扼要地揭示出消息的核心内容。

主体是消息的主要部分，它用充足的事实表现主题，是对导语内容的进一步展开和阐释。在此部分，一般要补充事件的过程和细节，往往包括why（目的或原因）和how（具体过程）等。

新闻报道的结语一般是最后一句话或者一段话，通常对全文内容作概括性的总结，或对新闻事件的发展趋势做出预测。有时，作者根据报道的事实在结语中提出令人深思的问题。

4. 优化文章结构

要尽量详略得当，层次分明，条理清晰。
