In some countries as many as nine out of ten adults read at least one newspaper a day. Seen in purely business terms, few products can ever have been so successful in reaching as much of their market. Why do so many people read newspapers?
There are five basic functions of a newspaper: to inform, to comment, to persuade, to instruct and to entertain. You may well think that this list of functions is in order of importance, but, if so, you would not be in agreement with the majority of the reading public. Of the two broad
categories
of newspaper, the popular and the quality, the former has a readership of millions, while the latter, only hundreds of thousands. Yet the popular papers seem largely designed for entertainment. They contain a lot of comment and persuasive language. The quality newspapers put a much higher value on information and a much lower one on entertainment.
It is not only in content that the two kinds of paper differ. There is a difference, too, in the style in which the articles are written. The popular papers generally use more dramatic language with a lot of word-play. Their reporters tend to use shorter sentences and avoid less well-known vocabulary. This means that popular newspapers are easier for a native speaker to understand, though probably not for a non-native speaker.
In order to decide whether a newspaper is a quality one or a popular one, it is not even necessary to read it, since you can tell simply by the way it looks. Popular papers are generally smaller with fewer and shorter articles. But they have bigger headlines and more photographs.
How does the writer describe a popular newspaper?
选项
A、It carries many articles and few photographs.
B、It is intended to educate people.
C、It contains a lot of information.
D、It aims at entertaining people.
答案
D
解析
文章第二段讲到报纸的五大功能之一就是给读者带来娱乐,这是点题之句。用排除法也可以答对这道题。选项A说的是通俗报纸刊载文章多,图片少,与文章最后一句话不符。选项B说通俗报纸的意图是教育读者,文章中找不到依据。文章第二段最后一句描述优质报纸的特点时提到:优质报纸则非常重视其所提供的信息,娱乐的成分要少些。由此可以排除C。
