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. Lets 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 reporters 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!56.

My fathers going to need diapers(尿布). There will come a time when he wont recognize me and hes easily excited.

About five per cent of children weigh too much, and are likely to stay that way for life; in the mid-twenties-age-long group the proportion(比例) of the middle-aged population half are overweight. Fat people risk severe health problems, says the report, including high blood pressure, breathlessness and various forms of heart disease. Smoking is particularly risky for overweight people. The safest way to lose weight is to eat cereals, bread, fruit and vegetables, and cut down on fatty meals, butter and sweet foods. Fad（目前流行的）diets so far more than good; slimming machines that vibrate muscles have not been proved useful; saunas merely remove a little body water, and health farms, says the report ,serve as expensive holidays. Exercise is most important to health, the report emphasizes; though it doesnt necessarily reduce weight; it keeps the correct proportion of body muscle. And it isnt only for the young ; from middle age a minimum of 20 minutes of gentle physical jerks should be practiced three times a week. The report advocates several public health measures to fight the common existence of overweight in this country. They include an increase of tax on alcohol to reduce its increasing, and dangerously fattening, consumption; and the provision of more sports facilities by local authorities. Britains doctors, the report concludes, must learn to be more sympathetic and specific in their advice to the overweight, encouraging a change in eating habits on a long-term basis and taking into account the many-often-complex-reasons why fat people are fat.63. The passage mainly talks about _.A. the cause of Britons overweight. B. how to avoid getting overweightC. Britons overweight problem. D. the relations between overweight and health problems.64.According to the report, a person is most likely to stay fat for the whole of his life if he _.A. gets fat in the twenties B. gets fat in his middle age C. is born fat D. gets fat when he is a child.65. The report thinks that exercise _.A. is a way to reduce weight. B. sometimes increases weight C. is a sure way to keep one healthy D. can convert（转化）fat to muscle66. The report points out that drinking too much alcohol_.A. will also cause one to get fat B. will cause one to do less sports C. will make one forget the fact that he is fat. D. will lead one to bad eating habitsDAttention Tim Hortons Stainless Steel Travel Mug Owners Lid Recall-15 oz Stainless Steel Travel Mug A fault at the cup has been recognized.
