READING COMPREHENSION
Internet Journalist
David Thomas, 30, Washington, writes blogs about the latest music. People from all over
the world read it. “Every day I look for new stories, so I have to read many different
newspaper and magazines. I get a lot of information from the mass media. Social
networks help me too, because many bands and musicians post new music on their
social networks. Sometimes I call my friends to find out about the latest news in the
music world. They are really updated of what is going on!”
My blog is for anyone who can use the Web. Many of my reader use their smart phones
to access my stories. I have some advertising on my site, but I don’t have a publisher like
newspapers, and I don´t need to broadcast live like radio stations, I just press “publish”!
Instagramer
Run by super stylish Jessica Wang, a Chinese American fashion blogger from New York City, it
provides readers with ideas about how to dress up chic yet casual.
“I share pictures with my followers. I go to the park with my friend who is a very good
photographer. We take pictures of each other and take pictures of flowers. These photo sessions
are important as I need new content for Instagram every day.”This is a big year for me because I'm
finally releasing a new documentary: a story about my life, since I am an adult and have had enough
experiences that I want to share with the world. Also, I am going to an event organized by a luxury
brand. I am going to show everyone my makeup collection and answer all their questions. My job is
difficult, and not everyone will understand, nor do I need to make them.
Science Journalist
Peter Smith is a science journalist in New York. He travels the country to report stories for
national newspapers and magazines. Since he doesn’t work for a publication, he does not
have an office. He works at his apartment or coffee shops. As a freelancer, Smith has to
come up with all his own ideas. This can be exhausting, he admits. Being a journalist is his
dream job. He only wishes it paid a bit more money.
Last year, he and his girlfriend moved there from Portland, Maine because New York was a place
where Smith could meet other writers. Being a journalistcan be a solitary profession. To
succeed, it is important to make friends in the field. New York City, he says, is the opposite
of lonely. “I can’t walk from my apartment to thesubway without meeting another
journalist.”
