The reason for selecting the course.
I think it‘s quite simple.I am fond of English,therefore I want to master English.Since the first time I met English ,I was sure that I had been falling in love with it uncontrollably.Then I tried to learn this beautiful language from A to Z,from letters to words,from phrases to sentences.In a word,there was one nameless power to motivate me to keep working hard in learning English.And my hard work always paid off.I always led the class in Englsih subject.More significantly,I accumulated the knowledge and now harvest a solid foundation of English ,which facilitates me for further studying in English obviously.As the time passes by,I learn more and more about Englsih language,and I become more and more eager and fascinated to reach more materials about English,not only about the language itself,but the culture about English and English-speaking countries.Then I ture to the English newspaper and magazines.And I really benefit a lot from reading the English newpaper and magazines.I keep a good habit of reading some English newspaper and magazines in my spare time.I immedietely picked our course out when I came to the lists of optional course.I hope I can learn more.I want to have a systematic and comprehensive knowledge frame of reading English newspaper.In summary,I select because I want to select.
A brief analysis of the general features of English newspaper language with examples. First
of
all,there
are
several
types
of
journalism:news,feature,editorial&commentary,advertisement and cartoon.Mostly,a piece of English news is composed of three parts:headline,introduction and the body.Headline,which is called the eye of a piece of news,is the great summary of the news and of irreplaceable importance.In terms of style and content,the headlines can be divided into four groups.The first one is simple summary,for instance,Value of Dollar Falls to New Low Against the EURO,China Gear Up for Olympic Secury Effort.Secondly,rhertoric question,for instance,When will intere rates rise?Police Allowed Jailbreak?Watch Television,Lose Weight?Then quotative headlines come third,for instance,Scholar Want ―Soft Partition‖of Irap,‖We Have to Save Our People‖,Norse ―Invasion‖.And the last one is double headlines,for instance,It Isn‘t the Cow That Are Mad,It‘s the People That Are Going Mad‖,‖Expected to Go to US Castro to Free Thousands of Prisoners‖.In terms of words and language,there are different types of headlines.Conciseness or terseness, for instance,Starstruck(Times),Mugwump
Britain((The
Spetactor),Anything
But
Beef(The
Econimist),Battle for Brains(Financial Times).Lengthiness,for instance,It Must Be a Victory on
Which Peace can be built(The Sunday Times),Heavy Losses Are Reported in Fighting in South Lebanon and Along the Coast(The Sunday Times).The third,flat description with plain words, for instance,Taiwan Recognizes Mainland Currency(South China Morning Post),Kyrgyz Troops Free 4 U.S Hostages(The Washington Post).Quotation,for instance,Pride and Prejudice– Film Location (Geographical Magazine),
Farewell to Arms (Time),
A Tale of Two Hearts (Newsweek),
Liberty is the true mother of invention (U.S.News &World Report),(Reuters).Artistic forging and foundry ,for instance,Salary Soars,Democrats.
Thatcher‘s Style Wars,
Refugees in Dire Straits
Ballots, Not Bullets
A Dove Taking Wing,
(Time),
Soldiers

The followings are the language characteristics of headlines in English news. Omission,for instance,
Italian Ex-Mayor Murdered
No Survivors in Gulf Air Crash
Death Riddle Drama,Zoo Escapes Drama.
Midget words,for instance,
World eyes Mid-East Peace Talks(eye=watch),Peace Pact Not Yet in Sight(pact=agreement),Thailand, Malaysia Ink Sea Treaty
Rate Soars=to rise rapidly,Peace Effort in Lebanon Stalled,=making no progress.

by paper, never kissed by stamps.

the three P?s(peace, petroleum, Palestine), the three I?s(inflation,
interest rate, impeachment), the three G?s(gays, godless, girls), the three R's(Reading, Writing
Analogy.For instance,and Arithmatics).
What help I can get by reading English newspaper.
Undoubtedly,I benefit a great deal from reading English newspaper.Firstly, through reading the English material,I would come across new words or some technical terms of some specific fields,then I can expad my vocabulary,which I think is the most imporntant benefit through reading English newspaper.English learning is composed of two vital parts:listening practise and vacabulary.Secondly, through English newspaper,I would learn much about the outside world,seeing whai‘ happening in USA,what‘s hot in the UK and so on.In this way,I can widen my horizon, which is one of the key factors in our road to success.
Last but not least,I enjoy reading English newspaper and will keep the habit of reading English newspaper.
