My Internship at a Local Newspaper

Last July, I spent three weeks as an intern at a local newspaper. I wanted to be a journalist, and I thought the job would be exciting from the first minute. In fact, my first morning was very quiet.

My supervisor, Mr Hadi, asked me to check the spelling in a pile of readers' letters. I was a little disappointed, but I did it carefully. At eleven o'clock, he read my corrections and said, "You found five mistakes the others missed. Good." That small comment made me feel more confident.

On the second week, I was allowed to join a reporter at a village market. We were writing about the rising price of chilli. I was nervous, so I only listened at first. Then an old seller began to complain that young people no longer wanted to take over her stall. I forgot my nervousness and asked, "Why do you think so?" She talked for twenty minutes, and the reporter used my question as the opening of the article.

In the third week, my own short article was published on page six. It was only two hundred words about a school garden, but I bought five copies of the newspaper. Mr Hadi shook my hand and said that the most important skill for a journalist was not writing quickly but listening patiently.

The internship did not turn me into a famous reporter. However, it showed me that good stories often begin with small things that people forget to notice.

Which statement best describes the writer's feelings about the internship at the end of the text?
