Т: Yesterday we spoke about Mass Media and its role in the life of our society. What is it «mass media»?

P3 – Yes, sure.

T: Well, the topic of our lesson is «Press»

When we say "press" we mean newspapers and periodicals. In the past a great deal of people learnt about the news from newspapers. Nowadays the people get information from TV programs or from Internet, but still we cannot imagine our life without newspapers and magazines.

There are a lot of different kinds of newspapers in each country. Of course it is impossible to read all newspapers and magazines so you have to choose those which you are interested in. You can buy them practically everywhere. Many people subscribe to some newspapers and buy more than two newspapers and magazines in a week.

Skin the text and find the names of the two main kinds of the newspapers in the UK.

Scan the text and answer the questions.

What was the difference between tabloids and
broadsheets in the past?

What is the difference between them nowadays?

What do tabloids write about?

What do broadsheets focus on?

In the UK we have two main kinds of newspapers: broadsheets and tabloids.

Originally these names came from the si?.e of the newspapers. A tabloid format newspaper was smaller and the broadsheet format newspaper was bigger.

But nowadays when we talk about tabloids and broadsheets, we talk about two different kinds of newspapers: easy reading and quality newspapers. Tabloids report news in a very condensed form. They write about celebrities, the British Royal Family, sport, crime stories and scandals.

Broadsheets give their readers long, detailed reports on the latest news and focus on more serious things: politics, economy, government, international events, business, culture.

T: Find the best Russian equivalents for the words. More than one translation is possible. Explainyouranswers.

Tabloid — а) таблоид b) желтая пресса с) легкое чтение Broadsheet — а) широкоформатная газета Ь) серьезная газета с) независимая газета

(учащиеся дают перевод слов и разъясняют свои ответы).

Tabloid (popular) – легкое чтение

Broadsheet (quality) – широкоформатная серьезная газета
