Reading newspapers not only helps you learn English, but also makes you know what’s going on around the world. Do you know how to make a newspaper? Let’s have a look! There are many steps to making a newspaper. On Monday, editors (编辑) and reporters have a meeting to decide what stories should be in this week’s paper. On Tuesday and Wednesday, reporters make phone calls and write e-mails. They set up interviews with people they want. Then they start to write news stories. Cartoonists draw cartoons and photographers take pictures to match the stories. Everything comes together on Thursday. Page designers (设计师) put the stories, cartoons and pictures on the page. Editors read through the stories to correct mistakes. They also write headlines (标题) and captions (图片说明). Often, editors have to cut the story to make it fit on the page, and it can be hard to decide what to take out. After all these steps, designers print the pages and editors read over each page. They make sure, again, that all the facts are right and nothing is wrong.
