🌈 Tips For Writing News Items 🌈

How to arrange News Item text? 

⭐ Determine the news to be delivered. Preferably the news that is currently hot or current in the community. The warmer the better.

⭐ Write the main story at the beginning of the manuscript you are going to write. This is useful for keeping the reader focused and wanting to read more.

⭐ Write the contents of the news with 5 W + 1 H. That is, the news is about what, when, where, and why this happened. Write down the process in detail.

⭐ Write down news sources. It could also be through eyewitnesses of the incident. For example, there is a fire disaster in a village, write an interview with one of the residents who saw the beginning of the incident.

⭐ After the news draft is ready, start assembling. Since News Item Text is an English script, you can choose one of these two options. Use Indonesian first and then translate into English, or use English directly.

🌻 Example News Item : 🌻

     Seven Killed in Accident on Jalan Sultan

Seven people were killed in a collision between a bus, a car and a truck at 10:35 p.m. on Jalan Sultan last night.

 The dead were all passengers in the car. Police believe the car may have been trying to overtake the bus when it was struck by a truck coming from the opposite direction. The driver of the car may not have been using his lights, as the truck driver said he did not see the car approaching.

The police said the car should not have been trying to pass the bus, since overtaking is not allowed on Jalan Sultan. In addition, the police reported that the car–a small Japanese car–should not have been carrying more than five people. The names of the victims are not yet known.

KATE BOLDUAN, CNN ANCHOR: Hello, everyone. I'm Kate Bolduan. Thanks so much for joining us this hour. It seems crystal clear now that when it comes to the coronavirus, you cannot have your cake and eat it, too. You can't, on one hand, not do the hard work, not dramatically change behavior, not wait until the science-driven guideposts have been met and then still expect to have nice things. And by nice things, I really only mean getting back to something that looks like normal. It's clear you can't just beat this virus by hoping for the best.

Take a look at the process of reopening schools and universities. In multiple places around the country, COVID outbreaks are forcing school officials to reverse course and suspend in-person learning. The latest and most glaring example, the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, which announced that it is no longer holding in-person classes for undergrads after about 130 students tested positive for COVID in the first week

If you litter in this Thai national park, your rubbish may just come back to haunt you. Well, not exactly haunt, but it'll be shipped to your home as a pointed reminder that when out in nature, you had better clean up after yourself. Authorities in the popular Khao Yai National Park near Bangkok will start sending rubbish back to litterers, Thailand's environment minister said. Offenders will also be registered with the police. Visitors to the park have to register with their addresses, making it easy for rangers to track them down if they leave rubbish behind. Environment Minister Varawut Silpa-archa posted pictures of litter collected in cardboard parcels ready to be shipped on his Facebook account. "Your trash - we'll send it back to you," the post warns, reminding people that littering in a national park is an offence and punishable with up to five years in prison and hefty fines. the box in the Facebook post contains a polite note saying: "You forgot these things at Khao Yai National Park". Park authorities say the rubbish left behind can be particularly dangerous for animals who may try to eat it. Khao Yai National Park which is north-east of the Thai capital Bangkok stretches across more than 2,000 sq km (770 sq miles) and is very popular with hikers. It's the oldest national park in Thailand and known for its waterfalls, animals and scenery

" The young man was on the outside of the barrier and was holding a knife to his chest but nobody seemed to be trying to talk him round," she said.

" I wanted to help him but the police wouldn't let me through so I lied and told them he was my boyfriend and that he wanted to kill himself because of me.

" They let me talk to him and he told me he was sad because he was from a broken family. I'm also from a broken family too and understood him perfectly."

Liu then surprised everyone - especially the young man - by stepping forward, putting her arms around him and giving him a kiss.

A fireman took advantage of the distraction and dashed forward to grab hold of the man and pull him to safety.

"His story touched me, and I felt like I really was his girlfriend and I could help him," said Liu afterwards.

Guardiola says he is now uncertain whether City's 32-year-old record goalscorer will be fit until November. "We knew the injury was difficult," said Guardiola. "He still hasn't had one training session with us and Sergio is not a guy who regains his physical condition quickly. He has been out for a long time, so maybe in one or two months he will be ready."

                     " Forest Fires "

Forest fires are a natural phenomenon that is detrimental to the environment. This phenomenon is marked by the presence of high-intensity fires in the forest area which then devours the trees there. As a result, the quality of the air and the environment becomes bad and can threaten the life in it. 

Forest fires don't just happen for no reason. Based on its occurrence, this phenomenon can be divided into three types, namely surface fires, canopy fires, and canopy fires. The three types of forest fires have different causes and impacts for the survival of living things in the vicinity. 

Surface fire is a type of forest fire that only devours the forest floor. In this case it is shrubs, weeds, and other plants that are not very tall. This fire spreads easily due to the dry nature of the bush, but is also easy to extinguish. 

Meanwhile, canopy fire is a type of natural phenomenon that burns all plants (trees, weeds, shrubs, etc.) in the forest area. This type of canopy forest fire is very difficult to extinguish because the fire also devours the trees. Meanwhile, canopy fires are the type that devours the organic layer that is located below the surface. The spread of fire from this type of fire is very slow. 

Apart from the types above, forest fires can be caused by two main factors that come from humans and are purely natural. Natural factors in question such as prolonged drought, which eventually led to hotspots. Humans also participate in creating fires by throwing cigarette butts carelessly, intentionally burning to clear land, and so on. 

As a result, environmental pollution occurs, such as smoke that causes air pollution, reduced visibility due to smog, river water becomes not clear, and so on. Burning smoke that is inhaled into the body can cause various respiratory diseases such as ARI. Not to mention the content of harmful gases, which may be carried away by the smoke. 

Forest fires are more common in tropical countries around the equator. Apart from natural factors, this phenomenon is also caused by irresponsible human activities. In fact, the impact of burning can harm the environment, ecosystems, and living things, including humans. As a civilized human being, we must be able to educate the importance of protecting the forest as the lungs of the world.
