How to read a newspaper
When you read a newspaper, you should skim the headlines first. They will tell you the topic of each article.
Newspaper headlines use present tense. Some words are left out to save space, including a/an/the, do/does/did, the verb be and and/but/or.
Read the newspaper headlines below. Pay attention to the tense and the words left out.
1 The Driver was killed, and eight were hurt in a bus crash
2 Heavy fog delays flights in Xinjiang
3 A Cat show was held in Shanghai
4 New artist sweeps American Music Awards
5 Here are some Xi'an travel trips
Newspapers use a special style of writing. Usually the most important information— the who, what, where, when and how— comes first in an article. The details come next, from the most important details to the least important ones.
