Question

СРОЧНО НАДО ЗАДАНИЯ С ТЕКСТОМ Children's Voice Children’s Voice began in 2000 as a magazine written by children. It was the idea of a New York businessman called Sam Harris. He thought that people should listen to what children had to say. Harris soon found that adult newspapers were interested in the children’s writing. He decided to close the magazine and started selling the children’s news stories to adult newspapers. Now Children’s Voice has offices all over the UK. Since 2005, the people who work at Children’s Voice have helped over 500 children with their writing. Many of these children have written news stories and programmes for TV and radio. The children, who must be aged 8–18, write about anything they think is important. Children’s Voice shows them how to make their work good enough for publication. Children’s Voice is not really interested in finding school children who want to become journalists when they grow up. They want children to think for themselves and they want adults outside their schools to listen to them. They are really pleased that some of their writers are from poorer families and these children are often invited by national newspapers to write about the problems in their lives. 1.
