Sometimes there are news items which are very amusing.A news report is usually very short, except when it is about something very important, but it contains a lot of information. It is also written in short paragraphs. The first paragraph is in fact a summary of the news item. It gives all the necessary information: what, when, where, how and why. The other paragraphs give full details (细节) of the subject. There may also be interviews (采访) with people. The words actually spoken by them are within inverted commas(引号).Often there are photographs to go with the news to make it more interesting.
