Section Two Listening ComprehensionPart 1 DialogueDeputy EditorRay Jones:
11、You know, a lot of people who read newspapers have no idea how theyre put together. Im often asked to talk to groups of people about my work, and its incredible how many of them think either that reporters write the headlines and take their own pictures or, conversely, that the Editor writes and pri
12、nts everything in the paper. They fail to realize that producing a newspaper is really very much a team effort. Mary Keen: Ray, youre Deputy Editor of the Evening Post. What exactly does that entail? Ray Jones: Well, the work of a Deputy Editor varies from paper to paper depending on the Editor. No

Ray Jones: Taking care of readers letters, for instance, and editing our Mailbag column. That can be great fun - we have a splendidly ecc
18、entric bunch of regular readers, and, given the right subject, they often produce an extremely entertaining and well-written set of letters. Of course, dealing with the correspondence has its tedious side as well - I have to read every letter we get, and some of them, as you can imagine, are a bit o
19、f a pain. Mary Keen: What else do you have to do? Ray Jones: I also write the Leader column each day. That means I have to compose 300 words on some matter of public concern expressing the newspapers opinion. And sometimes this, too, can be a real problem. More than once Ive found myself half an hou

Evening Post Deputy Editor Part 2 passageBuilding friendships with Your Young ChildrenSeveral years ago, we began construction on a new church building. In the beginning, the workmen dug a big pit in the ground and then they began to pour footings. Footin
27、gs are cement piers upon which the entire building rests. They are crucial to the strength of the finished structure.
