What do you think?
-
What new information have you got from the text on periodicals?
-
How can you apply this new information to your studies and life in general?
Focus on Language
Read these sentences. Do they have active or passive verbs?
-
Magazines and journals are called periodicals because they are published on a regular or "periodic" basis.
-
Libraries are able to purchase one copy which can be shared by many people.
-
The articles in this type of periodicals may be written by a member of the editorial staff, a scholar or a freelance writer, not a subject expert.
Passive Structures Passive verbs are common when we are thinking about what is done to the person or thing that we are interested in, not about what he/she/it does.
e.g.: English is widely-spoken all over the world.
