Resume the following text, extracting the main ideas, in no more than five lines: Out of the millions of things that happen every day, print and electronic journalists decide what few things are worth reporting. Deciding what is newsworthy is not an exact science, but there are common elements that characterise it. The most important feature of a newsworthy event is timeliness, because news is new and yesterdays news is old news. A consumer who picks up the evening paper or turns on the afternoon news expects to be told what has happened earlier the same day. News is perishable and stale news is not interesting. Another quality of news is proximity, because readers and viewers want to learn about their neighbourhood, town, country. All other things being equal, things from close to home are more newsworthy than news from a foreign country. Psychological proximity is also important, for example subway riders from Bucharest will be more interested in a material about the New York subway than the people in the same town not travelling by this means of transport. Prominence is another feature, as the more important a person, the more valuable he or she is as a news source. Political leaders, sports and entertainment figures, but also dangerous criminals give media coverage. Another golden rule is that people are interested in events with consequences on their lives, with impact. A tax increase, drought, inflation, earthquakes, all these events have consequence and are widely mediatised. The last quality we mention is human interest, stories that arouse emotion in the audience by being ironic, bizarre, tragic. Typically, these items concern ordinary people who find themselves in circumstances with which</p><p>the audience can identify. Thus, when the winner of the state lottery gives half of his winnings to the elderly man who sold him the ticket, it becomes newsworthy. Anyhow, it is not easy to establish what is news.</p><p>7. Translate into English: Comunicarea este un cuvnt la mod azi. Mai ales comunicarea n mas s-a dezvoltat extrem de rapid dup cel de-al doilea rzboi mondial, cnd eforturile s-au concentrat asupra eficienei propagandistice. Iniial, s-a considerat logic s se nceap cu sursa, acest punct de vedere dovedindu-se o grav eroare care i are rdcinile n renumita teorie a glonului. Potrivit acesteia, sursa (cel care comunic) folosete o combinaie de mesaje i strategii de media pentru a influena un public ce trebuie convins, aa cum un glonte urmrete o int precis. Comunicarea scris sau vorbit se constituia atunci cnd cuvintele ce urmau s constituie mesajul erau selectate i aranjate pentru a fi emise pe pia. Mai trziu specialitii au ajuns la concluzia c impactul comunicrii este mai mare dac se ncepe cu publicul..</p>
