Hundreds of years ago， news was carried from place to place by people on foot or by horse. It took days， weeks and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day either by watching TV or reading newspapers.

Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors(编辑) decide which news stories to print? Why do they print some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?

Firstly， it is important to report new stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers， but newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way， or they may print completely different stories from those on TV.

Secondly， a new story has to be interesting and unusual. People don't want to read stories about everyday life. As a result， many stories are about some kinds of danger and seem to be “bad” news. For example， newspapers never print stories about planes landing safely， instead they print stories about air crashes.

On May 23， Shenzhen introduced new rules in order to prevent the “Chinese style of crossing the road”. “Chinese people cross roads without thinking about traffic lights， so long as they are part of a group of people，” said a post on Sina Weibo.

A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour， more than 600 people jumped red lights when crossing a road in Shijiazhuang， Hebei.

Many people say that they jaywalk(乱穿马路) because the red light lasts too long. Such an opinion is supported by a research（研究）group at Tongji University. The team did research on people’s waiting times at different road crossings for three years. They found that Chinese people would wait for 70 to 90 seconds before they lost their patience. “People are likely to ignore(忽视) the light when the waiting time is longer than they can bear，” said Ni Ying， a member of the research team.

However， a survey on Sina Weibo suggested that people jaywalk mainly because they ignore rules. “I always obey traffic rules. Time is important but safety should come first，” someone wrote on his Weibo.

Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers. In Singapore， the maximum can be three months in prison（监狱）. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions， too. For example， the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined 50 yuan in Shijiazhuang.

But calling on people to obey rules is more important. To completely solve the problem， everyone should understand the importance of obeying the traffic rules.
