Read and translate the text, using the vocabulary on the topic Newspapers
Many British families buy a national or local newspapers every day. Some have it delivered to their home by a paper boy or paper girl, others buy it from a newsagent or a bookstall.
British Newspapers
Britain has two kinds of national newspapers: the quality papers and the tabloids. The qualities, often called broadsheets because they are printed on large pages, report national and international news and are serious in tone. They have listings f television and radio programs, theater and cinema shows, a crossword, comic strips, advertisements and the weather forecast.
The main quality dailies are The Times and the Daily Telegraph, which support the political right, the Guardian, which is on the political left, the Independent, and the Financial time. Sunday papers include the Sunday Times, the Observer and the Independent on Sunday.
The tabloids have smaller page size and report news in less depth. They concentrate on human interest stories, and often discuss the personal lives of famous people. Some have page-three girls, photographs of half-naked young women. Many people disapprove tabloids. The most popular are the Sun, the Mirror, the Express, the Daily Mail. The News of the world, a Sunday tabloid, sells more copies than any other newspaper in Britain.
There are about 1500 local papers, many of which are weeklies. They contain news of local events and sport, carry advertisements, for local businesses, and give details of houses, cars and other items for sale. Some are paid for the advertisements they contain and are delivered free to people’s homes. A few people do not like them and put up a notice on their door saying ‘No free papers, thank you’.
