1.　　　 Why do you study English?

Do you want to be a reporter? If you do, you need to have many skills. Of course, you should be able to write well, but you must know how to speak well and listen well, too. Reporters talk to a lot of important and famous people. They also talk to quiet, shy people, so you need to be friendly.

You shouldn’t study just English and Chinese. You should be

interested in many different things, such as science, art and music. Most importantly, you should read every day---books, magazines and, of course, newspapers!

Being a reporter has many advantages, such as meeting new people, but there are some disadvantages, too. Sometimes you may work for many hours, but still not be able to write a good report.
