Every morning, the newspaper chief editor（主编） holds a meeting with the reporters. They discuss the main events（事件） of the day. Reporters are then sent to cover the events.　　
As soon as the reporters know what to write about, they get down to work. They telephone people and fix a time for a face-to-face interview with them. Sometimes they do telephone interviews. Checking information is very important. They go to the newspaper's own library to look up any information that they need. This is called "doing one's homework".
At the same time, the picture editor decides which photographs will be used for the next day's paper. All the people who work on a newspaper must be able to work fast. Reporters have to stop working on one story and start working at once on the important new one. They must find out the new information as quickly as possible. Later in the day, everything is put together at the news desk. Reporters return, type their stories into the computer and hand them to the editor.　　
The chief editor decides which will be the most important story on the front page. Sometimes this will have to be changed if something more important happens late in the day. Other editors read the stories which the reporters have written and make any necessary changes.　　
Finally, there is no more time left for adding new stories, and the time for printing（印刷） the newspaper has come. This is done on fast-moving printing machines. The newspapers are then delivered（发送） by truck, plane or rail. Speed is important. People want to buy the latest newspaper; nobody wants to buy yesterday's.

We usually send and receive information through the movement of our bodies. Body language can show different feelings. We often use gestures(手势) or body movements to show and express our mind. For example, when someone is giving a talk, he or she may often use his or her hands to emphasize(强调) points.

The victory(胜利) sign, the OK sign, the goodbye wave and the blowing of a kiss are all popular gestures in America. However, most of these gestures are not accepted(接受) by people in other countries. For example, the OK gesture means acceptance in America, but it has other meanings in other countries. In France, it means worthlessness(无价值), while in Greece it is a sign of quite disrespect(不尊重).

There are some other differences in the non-verbal(非语言的) messages of people of different sexes(性别). In American culture, men usually sit or stand with their legs apart and hands outward, while women usually keep their legs together and their hands at their sides. Women sit quietly than men most of the time. Women are also better than men at expressing themselves using gestures.

In short, body language is simple and useful, so we should learn how to use it in our daily lives.
