Old Secret Sharing: The Difference Between Official Document Language and News Language
Member asked: The leader said that I have not figured out the difference between official document language and news language. There are too many news language mixed in the summary materials. How to solve and accumulate?
Teacher Concise Answers:
In fact, the essence of your question is that there is relatively little contact with official documents at present, and there is a lack of comparative training and summary of news language and official document language, but it's fine, just read more.
The language of news is lively, smooth, engaging, and expressive. Not rigid in structure, unless specifically required, there is no need for a strict paragraph system. The usual words are ordinary everyday.
The language of the official document is strictly standardized, the frame of the article and the arrangement of paragraphs are regulated and smooth, and the meaning and reason must be explained.
The author's high-level thinking system of putting forward ideas, analyzing ideas, solving problems, and responding to ideas.
For example, the Young Pioneers from all over the country held the "Red Scarf Meets the Chinese Dream" themed team day activity to welcome the arrival of June 1st. This is the language of journalism. Grassroots youth organizations from all over the country have carried out extensive propaganda and mobilization, and carried out in-depth team day activities with the theme of "Red Scarf Meets the Chinese Dream", taking the event as an opportunity to build a new chapter for children with Chinese dreams. This is official language.
As for the usual accumulation, considering the intensity of work, I personally suggest that you read one thing at this stage, and that is the fourth edition of the People's Daily. Then I looked at the seventh edition of the People's Daily every day. It was full of generous commentary articles, full of official language. You can compare and look at it for a month, and it is estimated that you can roughly distinguish which language belongs to which mode, and I hope it will be useful to you.

Writing Suggestions:
Read more official documents and be familiar with the language of official documents; watch more news, including video news and text news, to understand the language of news. Then analyze the difference between the two. News is more timely.
The summary is not an official document, but it should also be very rigorous. When expressing, pay attention to what to say, the structure should be clear, what happened, it can be summarized, and the news should be restored to the truth, what happened, just say, otherwise becomes fake news.
To sum up, the language should be plain, and what work has been done can be said directly, which can appropriately magnify the effect of the work. News can use prose language to create atmosphere and enhance readability.
Seeing more, reading more and practicing more is the best accumulation.
Teacher Lingyun replied:
The language of official documents is concise, solemn, concise, general and pragmatic. News language, lively, not so concise.
Be sure to do more research, and do your own research. What you have researched and thought about yourself can only enter your mind and heart, and it is your own.
Teacher Jianxian replied:
Official document: The content is distinctly political and highly ideological, has a statutory author, has statutory authority and administrative binding force, has a specific format, and is widely usable.
Press Release: Authenticity, evidence, timeliness, breadth, openness, variability, and the fact that they face different objects. It takes a lot of reading, learning and writing.

This phenomenon is commonly known as: "singers can't sing well". If singing is compared to news, then singing is an official document. News language is more lively, focusing on description and touching. The language of official documents is more standardized and rigorous, focusing on logical accuracy. A good way is to look at the People’s Daily’s news reports on the implementation of the central decision-making in various places, and compare them with the central documents. You will find differences in language and expression. You will see more, think more, and practice your writing. There will be big changes and big gains. .
