Newspaper Carrier Day happens on September 4 to celebrate Barney Flaherty and all past and present newspaper carriers.
Every day,thousands of newspaper carriers get up early and carry newspapers around the streets. They deliver(遞送)our newspapers before we wake up but few people think about their hard work. In the USA,10-year-old Barney Flaherty became the first newspaper boy. He started working for The New York Sun on September 10,y,many young people make their pocket money by delivering newspapers.
Perhaps millions of people have been a newspaper deliverer. Delivering newspapers used to be a part-time(兼職的)job for the children aged(……歲的)between 13 and now many adults often deliver newspapers by car. It has become dangerous for children to be on the streets alone before six in the morning. The newspaper carriers in the world are paid differently.
