5. as well 也
as well相当于also, too 的意思，不过 as well的位置一般在句末：I'm going to London and my sister's coming as well. 我要去伦敦，我妹妹也随我一起去。许多时候 as well和may/might (just) 连用时，构成 may/might (just) as well, 意思是：“不妨；还是...的好”： We may as well begin at once. = We'd better begin at once.

Sentence patterns
1. Checking information is very important. 核实情况非常重要。
句中 checking information 是动名词短语作主语，课文动名词短语作主语用的还有：Doing this can save a lot of time and money. 这样做可以节省许多时间和金钱。 Doing this is more difficult in English than in Chinese. (根据上文，此句的意思为) 用英文写标题要比用中文写难。Learning new words and useful expressions is very important for me
2. Finally, there is no more time left for adding new stories. 最后，没有时间剩下来增加新的报道了。
There is (no)…left for sth./doing sth 是一个较固定的搭配，表示“还留下(没留下)…来干某事” 。如：There is much money left for food. 还有很多买食物的钱。There is no room left for the piano in the room. 屋里没有地方放这架钢琴了。
　

Language tips
1. --- Zhou Lan, can I have a look at your copy of China Daily? --- Sure, go ahead.
--- 周兰，我可以看看你这张《中国日报》吗？--- 当然可以，看吧。
注意go ahead 在对话中的用法: --- Can I borrow your dictionary? --- Yes, go ahead. --- 我可以借用一下你的词典吗？ --- 可以，拿去吧。
2. I want to have a look at what's on this weekend. 我想看看这周末上演什么。
句中 What's on 是个名词性从句,作 look at 的介词宾语，属宾语从句。其中 on 是副词，在句中作表语，意思是“上演、演出”。如：Is there anything good on at Dahua Cinema tomorrow?
大华影院有什么好节目上演吗？
3. They're said to be very good. 据说他们很棒。
我们已学过It is said that …（据说），本句中 They're said…是一个类似的结构, 也是据说…，所不同的是前者It是形式主语，指代后面的that从句，而后者，是把所议论的人称代词直接做了主语: You are said to have got a few tickets for football match, right? 据说你弄到了几张球票，是吗？= It is said that you have got a few tickets for football match. He is said to be very good at English. 据说他的英语很好。
4. Reporters are then sent to cover the events. 然后记者被派出去采访报道这些事件。
cover 在新闻传媒界有特定的含义，（指新闻记者）采访、报道。如：I'm here to cover the conference. 我来这里采访会议情况。Jack was sent to cover the Olympic Games a few days ago.
几天前杰克被派去采访奥运会情况了。
5. They telephone people and fix a time for a face-to-face interview with them. 他们给有关的人打电话，约定面对面采访的时间。
作定语用face-to-face如：We had a face-to-face argument. 我们进行了面对面的争论。
作状语用face to face如：The two buildings stand face to face across the street.这两座建筑物面对面临街而立。 类似的表达还有：heart to heart (心贴心地)；shoulder to shoulder (肩并肩地)；
hand in hand （手拉手地）；arm in arm (臂挽臂地)
fix a time for sth 约定时间做某事，如：Let's fix a time for the meeting. 让我们定个时间开会吧。fix 在本句中意思是“安排”，如：Have you got anything fixed for the weekend? 周末你有安排了吗？
6. They go to the newspaper's own library to look up any information that they need.
look up 指“查询”。“查字典”的表达应为look up the word in the dictionary如查火车的运行时刻 Look up the times of the trains
7. All the people who work on a newspaper must be able to work fast. 所有从事报业工作的人员都必须能够快速地进行工作。
work on 意思是“从事...致力于...”的意思。如：Mr. Green is working on a new novel. 格林先生目前正在写一部新小说。He worked hard on collecting money for the hungry people. 他为饥民们积极从事募捐筹款的工作。
8. They must find out the new information as quickly as possible. 他们必须尽快地查明情况。
短语find out 和find不同，着重于研究、分析后的发现，这样的过程通常是颇费周折的，所以 find out 比find更费心机，翻译成中文是“了解，打听，弄清楚，打探”。如：We should find out how much the house would cost.我们一定要弄清楚真正的房价。We must find out the truth of the matter. 我们必须弄清楚事实真象。
9. Photographers return and the photos are quickly developed. 摄影记者回来了，他们很快地把照片冲洗好。
develop 是“洗照片”的意思，如：I'm going to have our holiday photos developed today. 今天我将把咱们度假的照片冲出来。Sorry, your photos haven't been developed yet. 对不起，你们的照片还没有冲洗出来。
10. Other editors read the stories which the reporters have written and make any necessary changes. 其他的编辑审阅记者写好的报道，并作必要的修改。
make changes 意思是“作修改/变动”：The teacher made some changes in his composition.老师在他的作文中作了一些修改。
11. People want to buy the latest newspaper; nobody wants to buy yesterday's.
the latest 是一个十分常见的短语，它的意思是“最近的，最新的”，如：the latest news；最新消息；the latest model 最新型号。late 还可以表示“上一届，前一任”,如：the late government 上一届政府。lately 副词，意思是“近来”相当于recently。如：I've not been feeling very well lately.
我最近身体欠佳。
12. There are reports on new plays, movies, books, new restaurants and so on.
report名词，“有关…的报道”后用介词 on，也可以用 about或of, 如：There are many reports on the earthquake from Taiwan.有许多关于台湾地震的报道。report 作动词，表示“报道…方面的有关内容”，也总是与介词 on 连用。例如：He reported on the results of the conference. 他报道了大会的结果。
13. Every Saturday there is a section about things to do at the weekend and the TV programmes in the coming week. 每周六（它）还有一个栏目，介绍周末活动和下周的电视节目。
和weekend 连用的介词，根据不同的需要有 at, for,over 等。如：at weekend 在周末；go for a weekend 去度周末；stay with sb. over a weekend＝spend a weekend with sb. 与某人一起度周末 in the coming week 在即将到来的星期里。the coming Sunday/year/summer vacation 指“紧接着到来的...”，等于 next Sunday/ year/ summer vacation。
14. Besides, I enjoy learning about new things from politics to sports and music. 除此之外，我还喜欢了解从政治到体育和音乐方面的各种新事物。
这里besides是副词, “除此之外”: I don't want to go to the cinema; besides, I'm feeling too tired. | My wife and I will be there and four of our friends besides. 下句中besides是介词: No one writes to me besides you.
15. 本单元中还有一些重要的词汇需要掌握：
①daily: n. The People’s Daily is China’s national daily. adj. He gets a daily wage. adv. Most newspapers appear daily.
②check: check a machine; check to see if everyone is here; --- Are all the windows shut? ---I'll just go and check.
③add: Do you want to add your name to the list? Add 6 and 6 to make 12.
④speed: n. The car is going at full speed. v. The weeks sped by and soon it was time to go back to school.
⑤suitable: We are hoping to find a suitable hotel. The house is not really suitable for a large family.
