What is in your periodical? (the news, horoscopes, crosswords, quizzes, comics, a problem page, pictures, posters) |
In my newspaper I publish the local news, quizzes (with the prizes) crosswords. There are a lot of pictures to attract the readers’ attention. |
The articles are about… (celebrities, politics, pets, films, music, psychology, fashion, etc. ) |
The articles are mostly about local people, hobbies, celebrities, because these topics are always interesting to readers. |
Price. How much does it cost? (cheap, not very cheap, expensive, affordable) |
It is cheap, because this newspaper is for many categories of people who don’t always have a lot of money. |
Your opinion about your newspaper (interesting, popular, serious, entertaining, useful, informative, for all tastes, boring, dull, old-fashioned) |
I think “The Mariupol News” is interesting, because it is very popular among adult people. For teenagers and children it may be dull and boring because it has got serious information and no games or articles for young people. |
