A newspaper reporter’s job can be very interesting. He meets all types of people and lives quite a busy life. He is on the rush for news all the time, then after several years he may get a desk job, and life becomes a bit more settled. Let’s look at his work a little more closely. In a day he may have to interview the prime minister of a foreign country, and the next day he may be writing about a football match. Sometimes he may be so busy that he has hardly any time to sleep. And at other times he may go on for days looking out for news materials yet return empty-handed.

　　In the beginning, a reporter has to cover a very wide field. After the early years he becomes more specialized in his work. For example, he may finally be asked to write only on court cases or politics or sports. Some reporters may become so specialized that they are asked only to write on a special thing: horse racing, for example. In most newspaper houses there is at least one special racing correspondent. Some newspapers have book reviews. Their job is delightful. They read the latest book and then write reviews on the ones they like. Then there are those who write on films, so they get to see them even before they are shown in the cinema. How lucky, you would say!

　　A reporter’s job can also be very dangerous. A number of them have died rushing from one assignment to another, and if there is a flood or a riot(暴乱) they may get hurt or even be killed. Three years ago there was a reporter whose camera was smashed by a group of men, because they were angry with him for taking their picture. Dangerous or not, one thing is certain, and that is, their job is never dull!

1.What does the underlined phrase “on the rush” mean in the passage?

A．on the beach       B．on the spot        C．in a hurry         D．in no time

2.Reporters who write on films are said to be lucky because they _____.

A．can see more film stars

B．can see the films before most people see them in the cinema

C．can pay less than other people

D．can write anything they like

3.A reporter’s work becomes dangerous when _____.

A．there is an interview with the prime minister  B．there is a football match

C．he is seeing a horror film                  D．there is a flood or a riot

4.From the passage we can infer that, to be a good reporter, he must be all of the following except _____.

A．brave            B．quick in mind       C．strong            D．well-informed
