Not only the spelling and grammar, but also the facts.Any mistakes that show up in a story can get a newspaper into big trouble.For example, if a newspaper said that Yang Liwei was the first man to go into space, it would be wrong. He wasnt the first. The newspaper would probably lose lots of readers because of that mistake.A news story does not only have to be correct, but it must also be relevant to its readers. People are mostly interested in news that happens near to them. Thats why you care more about what happens at your school than at schools in America. Its also why newspapers in Beijing dont talk much about news in Shanghai or Hong Kong.Make sure its fresh.Finally, news must always be fresh. When you pick up your evening newspaper, you want to read about news that happened that day. You dont want to read about news from last week!So, now you know what makes a good news story. Have a look at our paper and see if its full of good news! You can try writing a news story for our paper like a real reporter.（1）What will happen if there is a mistake in a newspaper?A .

Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you to live a green life.Remember these three words; reduce, reuse and recycle.Reduce means use less. Dont waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think if it is really necessary or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy thing, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.Reuse mean use again. Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should take care of them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Dont use a paper cup or a paper bag
