 Read the text and answer the question below.

It has been said that the British read more newspapers than any other people in the western world. More than thirty million copies of newspapers are printed in the country every day.

National newspapers are sold throughout the United Kingdom. They all have their head offices in London. Some papers aim to inform their readers as widely as possible about national and international news. Other papers try to attract more general readers, with pictures and sensational stories. The News of the World has the largest circulation of any newspaper in Britain.

There are many provincial daily, evening and weekly newspapers published in cities and smaller towns. They present local news and are supported by local advertisements. Many big cities have evening papers which give the latest news. London has two.

There are nearly five thousand periodicals published in the United Kingdom. Of these, women's magazines have the largest circulations. There are magazines and periodicals for almost every trade, profession, sport, hobby or interest. Special magazines and newspapers are published for young people. Very popular among them is Just Seventeen magazine and the newspaper Early Times.

Writing to the newspapers and magazines is a popular pastime for many people. Many letters are answered. The most interesting are published. People often read the letters before the main news, and the letters have an influence.

About 70 per cent of British people read a national newspaper every day and many also read a local newspaper. There are two main types of daily newspaper in Britain. The 'broadsheets' contain national and international news, and pages on topics such as money, the arts and travel. These are the four daily broadsheets:

The Times is very old – it started in 1785. It sells about 680,000 copies a day and it costs 50 pence.

The Guardian started in 1821, in Manchester. (Most newspapers started in London.) It sells about 325,000 copies a day and it costs 55 pence.

The Daily Telegraph sells more copies than the others — about 975,000 a day, and it costs 60 pence. It started in 1855.

The Independent only began in 1986. It sells about 205,000 copies a day and it costs 60 pence.

'Tabloids' contain national news but not a lot of international news, and they have a lot of pages on sport and the lives of famous people. The tabloids are more popular than the broadsheets.

The Daily Mail started in 1896 and it sells about 2,422,000 copies a day now. It costs 40 pence.

It has been said that the British read more newspapers than any other people in the western world. More than thirty million copies of newspapers are printed in the country every day.

National newspapers are sold throughout the United Kingdom. They all have their head offices in London.

The News of the World has the largest circulation of any newspaper in Britain.

There are many provincial daily, evening and weekly newspapers published in cities and smaller towns. They present local news and are supported by local advertisements. Many big cities have evening papers which give the latest news. London has two.
