  Here in the hills were buffaloes.I had even, in my very young days-when I could not live till I had killed one of each kind of African animal-shot a bull out here.Later on, when I was not so interested to shoot as to watch the wild animals, I had been out to see them again, but twice I had to go back without success.

  But one afternoon as I was having tea with some friends outside the house.Denys came flying from Nairobi and went over our heads westwards; a little while after he turned and came back and landed on the farm.I drove down to the plain to bring him back, but he would not get out of his plane.

  “The buffaloes are out feeding in the fields,”he said,“come out and have a look at them.”

  “I cannot come,”I said,“I have got tea-party up at the house.”

  “But we will go and see them and be back in a quarter of an hour,”he said.

  This sounded to me like the suggestions that people make to you in a dream.So I went up with him.It did not take us long to see the buffaloes from the air; we counted them as they peacefully mixed and separated on the open ground closed in bushes.There was one very old big black bull, and a number of young ones; if a stranger had come near to them they would have heard or smelt him at once, but they were not prepared for something from the air.They heard the noise of our machine and stopped feeding, but they did not seem to be able to look up.In the end they realized that something very strange was about; the old bull first walked out in front of the others.Suddenly he began to go down the valley side and after a moment he broke into a run.The whole group now followed him, rushing hurriedly down into the bushes.In a small wood of how trees they stopped and kept close together.Here they believed themselves to be out of sight.We flew up and away.It was like having been taken there by a secret unknown route.

  When I came back to my tea-party the teapot on the stone was still so hot that I burned my fingers on it.

Radio, TV, film, and new video technology bring to mind visions of bright, exciting, high-paying careers. Many young people are attracted to wonder: Is there a place for me in the broadcast media field?

People in the business warn that the road to a successful broadcast media career can be very rocky. They point out that getting started in the field is often difficult. To begin with, competition for most broadcast jobs can be fierce. Then, once on the job, the pressure is often big. Many jobs in broadcasting require long working hours, including nights and weekends. In most cases, the salaries are not very high.

What can you do to prepare for a career in broadcast media? Getting some kind of broadcasting experience during high school or college can be extremely important. Because the field is so popular, many employers are in a position to select beginners with developed skills.

You can start by becoming familiar with media while still in high school. If there is a media resource department in your school, volunteer to do anything. If there is no media department, take photos of games and social events. Work on the drama productions or write for the school newspaper.

Many beginners in broadcasting start at small local radio or TV stations. Such stations are usually more willing than the networks to take on people with little or no experience. Here, you have a chance to be involved in many aspects of the broadcast industry and get trained on the job.

1.According to the writer, jobs with the TV networks ________.
