Dear Mr. Lin,
My name is Kevin Chang. I am in Grade 8 at Green Hill School, and I write for our school newspaper, which has eighteen students in its club. Last week our class had a debate about whether students should be allowed to use phones at school. Before the debate, we read your report about the same question, and it gave us many good ideas that we used in our talks.
Next month we hope to write a story about your job as a journalist. Could we visit your office between May 18 and May 22? We would like to ask you about ten questions, which will take less than an hour. Is there anything else we should bring?
Please call our teacher, Ms. Wu, at 04-2211-3366, or email me.
Thank you,
Kevin Chang
親愛的林先生：
我叫張凱文，是綠丘學校八年級的學生，我替校刊寫稿，校刊社有十八位學生。上星期我們班舉辦了一場辯論，題目是「學生應不應該被允許在學校使用手機」。辯論前，我們讀了您寫的同主題報導，它給了我們很多好點子，我們都用在發言裡了。
下個月我們希望寫一篇關於您記者工作的報導。我們可以在 5 月 18 日到 5 月 22 日之間去您的辦公室拜訪嗎？我們想請教您大約十個問題，時間不會超過一小時。還有其他需要我們帶的東西嗎？
請打電話給我們的吳老師，電話 04-2211-3366，或寄電子郵件給我。
謝謝您，
張凱文
City TV Station Open Day
City TV Station will open its doors to students on Friday, June 6.
You will see how reporters make the news and how our weather lady talks in front of a green wall, which later becomes a weather map on your TV. In the kitchen of our cooking show, you can also watch the cook make chicken with soy sauce. Because only 60 students can go in, and there was a big crowd at the gate last year, please come early. Food and drinks are not allowed anywhere in the station. In the news room, please turn off your phone and do not use a camera light. You are welcome to ask our reporters questions after the visit.
城市電視台開放日
城市電視台將於 6 月 6 日星期五開放給學生參觀。
你會看到記者如何製作新聞，以及我們的氣象主播如何在一面綠色牆壁前播報，這面牆之後在你的電視上會變成一張氣象圖。在烹飪節目的廚房裡，你還能看廚師做醬油雞。因為只有 60 位學生可以進場，而且去年門口擠滿了人，所以請早點來。電視台內任何地方都禁止飲食。在新聞室裡，請關掉手機，也不要使用相機的燈光。參觀結束後，歡迎向我們的記者發問。
Where do young people get the news? Our school newspaper asked 180 students this question, and each student could choose only one answer.
| Way | Students |
|---|---|
| Phone | 94 |
| Television | 55 |
| Newspaper | 19 |
| Magazine | 12 |
Two years ago, television was the top answer, but now more than half of the students read the news on their phones. A phone has a big advantage: it is so light that you can carry it anywhere and read the news anytime. However, some teachers say that news on the phone is not always true, because anyone can post a story online. People are also more likely to believe a lie when they read too fast. The teachers hope that students will read a newspaper or watch the news on different channels as well, so that they can check what is true.
年輕人從哪裡得到新聞？我們校刊問了 180 位學生這個問題，每位學生只能選一個答案。
| 方式 | 學生人數 |
|---|---|
| 手機 | 94 |
| 電視 | 55 |
| 報紙 | 19 |
| 雜誌 | 12 |
兩年前，電視是最多人選的答案，但現在超過一半的學生用手機看新聞。手機有一大優點：它輕到可以帶著到處走、隨時看新聞。然而，有些老師說手機上的新聞不一定都是真的，因為任何人都能在網路上貼文。人們讀得太快時，也比較容易相信假消息。老師們希望學生也能讀報紙，或在不同的頻道看新聞，這樣才能查證什麼是真的。
