There are 5 channels on British television and each channel has several news programs all day long. Some programs are only for 3 minutes but some are one hour long. The people who read the news are called news presenters and because they appear on television every day, they are very famous.
This is a popular news presenter in England called Trevor McDonald, in the news studio. He presents a program called “News at Ten”every Monday to Friday evenings.
Another popular news presenter is Kirsty Young. She has a more modern style of reading the news, as you can see, she sits on the desk not on a chair!
Television news presenters need to have worked as journalists because they have to write most of the news that they read. Sometimes an important new event happens after the program has started, so the presenter has to be able to read something without looking at it first. They must always keep calm even when there are many changes during the program. At the end of “News at Ten”Trevor McDonald says “And finally...”. Then he reads an unusual or interesting item. It’s a famous saying in England now.
【小題1】Who sits on the desk to read the news?

While Nick was on the bus reading his newspaper, the man sitting next to him suddenly pushed a large envelope（信封）into his hands. "Here, take this!" the man said, stood up and got off the bus before Nick could say a word.

    Nick sat there, holding the envelope. It felt heavy.  There was paper inside, or money perhaps. "I'd better hand it over to the police," he thought. There was a police station close to his office. But, as he got off the bus, a man came to him. He seemed to be waiting for something.   "He wants the envelope," Nick thought. Nick began to walk quickly, and the man hurried after him. Nick managed to lose the man in the crowd（人群）．When he entered the police station, the man was no longer in sight.

    Inside the police station, Nick handed over the envelope to the policeman who was on duty.  The man opened it. The envelope was full of money, false（假的）money.“Clearly the man made a mistake," the policeman said. "He thought you were one of the gang（團伙）!”

    “However," the policeman went on. "I'm afraid I must ask you to keep quiet about all this.  We are trying to catch some very clever thieves, and we don't want them to know that we have some of the money. So you mustn't say a word to anyone-not even to your boss!"
