仔细阅读下列短文, 根据题目, 选出最佳选项. British newspapers are much smaller than they used to be and their readers are often in a hurry. So newspapermen write as few words as possible. They tell their readers at once what happened, where, when and how it happened, and so on. Readers want to know the whole thing as fully and accurately(正确地) as possible. Readers are also interested in the people who have seen the accident(事故, 意外). So a newspaperman always likes to get some information(信息, 资料) from someone who was there. The information can be given in the person's own words. To use fewer words, the newspaperman must choose those words carefully. So, every one must be useful. Instead of "he called out in a loud voice", he writes "he shouted".
