Journalists are the major group of people who make their living from writing. Many young people who see themselves as future novelists choose journalism as a way of earning a living while developing their writing skills. Although writing for newspapers and writing for books require different qualities, the aspiration（志向） to be a great writer is not one to be discouraged in a would-be journalist.

Most people want their work to be recognized by others. This helps to give it value. Some people also want themselves to be recognized, so that they have status（地位） in the eyes of society. It is not a bad motive to wish to be famous, but this must never become your main reason for being a journalist. You will not be a good journalist if you care more for impressing your audience than for serving their needs.

Knowing the power of the printed or spoken word or image, some people enter journalism for the power it will give them to influence people. There is a strong belief that journalists control the mass media but the best journalists recognize their role as servants of the people.

Curiosity is a natural part of most people's characters and an important ingredient for any journalist. Lots of young men and women enter the profession with the desire to know more about the world without needing to specialize in limited fields of study. Most journalists tend to know a little bit about a lot of things, rather than a lot about one subject. Knowledge has many uses. It can simply help to make you a fuller and more interesting person. It can also give you power over people, especially people who do not have that particular knowledge. Always bear in mind that power can be used in a positive way to improve people's lives.

4. What can we know from the first paragraph?

A. Journalists are most likely to become great writers.

B. Writing for newspapers is similar to writing for novels.

C. Journalism can be used as a means to improve writing.

D. Most of the journalists make a living by writing books.

5. Why do some people want themselves to be recognized?

A. To earn much wealth. B. To get great power.

C. To gain high position. D. To acquire rich knowledge.

6. What is most necessary for journalists according to Paragraph 4?

A. Having a wide range of knowledge.

B. Being specialized in a certain field.

C. Being good at making friends with others.

D. Being able to speak a foreign language well.

7. What does the text mainly talk about?

A. The development of journalism.

B. The challenges journalists face now.

C. Why people choose a career in journalism.

D. How to become a qualified journalist.

4. C

5. B

[解析]首句（A little boy selling magazines）已交代，男孩在卖杂志，自然会问对方是否“买”杂志。

7. D
