CAN YOU ADVISE ME?
I am writing to you becasue I would like become a hournalist when I leave school. Since you are the editor ò the local newspaper, I hope that you many be able to give me some advice about what I should to do. I have written some articles during my spare time and I am enclosing two of them. I hope that you won't mind looking at them and telling me whether you think they are good or not. I would appreciate any comments you make because I am keen to learn. I also wonder if you could advise me about a few other matters. Do you think it is the better to do a course in journalism at a college ỏ to try to get a job as a junior reporter as soon as I finish school? Do newpapers prefer to employ people with a qualification in hournalism or to train them while they are actually doing the jobs? Another question I would like to ask is, would you advise me to specialise in one kind of report, such as politics, or it is advisable to know a little bit about a lot of subjects? I am sure that you are very busy but I would be grateful for any advise you could give me. Finally, would it be possible to come into the newpaper offices one day so that I could see how a real newpaper operate? I would welcome the opportunity to do that.

Exercise II. Read the article, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
Simple Ways to Lose Weight on a Budget
Plan to Cook at Home Instead of buying costly prepared meals, which often tend to be high in calories, cook your own at home. Plan out your meals with high-fiber foods like beans and whole grains which will keep you full and are a cheaper, healthier alternative to rich proteins and more processed grains. Eat Less Eating less leads to weight loss, and cost savings, especially if you cut down on the right things. Start by cutting your portions of pricy meat and poultry. Double Up on Vegetables Vegetables are great for weight loss, as well as all-around health. They are low in calories and high in water and fiber - two things that keep you feeling full. Save cash by shopping for those that are in season. Frozen vegetables can be a great bargain, with just as much nutrition as fresh, since they are picked and frozen at their peak ripeness. Get Creative with Your Exercise Options You don’t need to shell out a monthly gym fee to get moving. Instead, find fun activities you enjoy for free. If you’re just getting started with a regular exercise routine, try your beginning with daily walks: start slowly and build up time and speed. Make Friends with Someone One of the most powerful resources you have for helping you lose weight is your social network. Find a friend who is also trying to lose weight and agree to help each other stay motivated. One study found that when friends participated in a group weight-loss programme together, they lost more weight than people who did the same programme on their own.
