仔细阅读短文并回答问题，注意每题后面的词数要求。
While magazines and newspapers both provide readers with information,the ways which media forms target and appeals(迎合)to their audiences are quite different.Understanding the differences between a magazine and a newspaper is the best way to determine which publication is the best for you.
Newspapers are among of the cheapest sources of information available today.Printed in tens of thousands,newspapers are available from any newsstand(报摊)in the world.Due to the relatively cheap ink used and the number produced,newspapers sell for a rather low price.Magazines use some of the high-quality paper and ink to produce a visually(视觉上】 appealing product.While generally much more attractive than a newspaper,they cost more to print,resulting in a much higher price.
Newspapers contain a large amount of content ranging from hard news stories to entertainment pieces and feel-good tales.As news is always breaking around the world，newspapers are never short of content.Magazines tend to focus on entertainment pieces and features about certain subjects within their chosen magazine subject.This can limit the amount of content they can provide,and magazines often have advertisements taking up large amounts of page space.
Newspapers have the sole purpose of providing readers with the most up-to-date news around the world.To maintain readers' interest,newspapers must publish on a daily basis to ensure their information is the most useful.Magazines tend to focus on entertainment pieces and features.Due to the cost of publication and limited information they have to produce, magazines are published either monthly or bimonthly(隔月地).
As newspapers provide a broad range of news and information,they tend to have a much wider audience than that of a magazine.However,magazines often focus on specific interests and information,meaning that they will aim at a specific gender(性别)or age,likely reducing the number of people who are interested in buying them.
1.Why is the price of magazines relatively higher than that of newspapers (no more than 10 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________
2.What do magazines usually focus on (no more than 8 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________
3.How do newspapers attract their readers (no more than 10 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________
4.Why are magazines less attractive to people (no more than 15 words)
____________________________________________________________________________________
