Last evening I was watching the evening news on television. The news was about a prize for scientific  1   ;I forgot what it was. The announcer, whose name was Ralph Story, said something that caught my  2  .“All great discoveries,”he said,“are made by people between the ages of twenty-five and thirty.”  3   a little over thirty myself, I wanted to disagree with him.  4   wants to think that he is past the age of making any discovery. The next day I happened to be in the public library and spent several hours looking up the  5  of famous people and their discoveries. Ralph was right.

First I looked at some of the   6   discoveries. One of the earliest discoveries, the famous experiment that proved that bodies of different  7   fall at the same speed, was made by Galileo when he was 26. Madam Curie started her research that  8   to the Nobel Prize when she was 28. Einstein was 26 when he published his world-changing theory of relativity. Well,  9   of that. Yet I  10   if those“best years”were true in other  11   .

Then how about the field of   12   ? Surely it needs the wisdom of age to make a good leader. Perhaps it  13   ,but look when these people  14   their career. Winston Churchill was elected to the House of Commons at the age of 26. Abraham Lincoln  15   the life of a country lawyer and was elected to government. At what age? Twenty-six.

But why  16   best years some after thirty? After thirty, I  17   ,most people do not want to take risks or try   18   ways. Then I thought of people like Shakespeare and Picasso.

     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 parttime reporter who works when called on. 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  photographers, 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 frontpage
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.
