There was simply too much news and too much information freely available on the net．But was it accurate? Whose opinion should we trust? A survey found that 60% of UK adults think it is worth paying for a "good newspaper", and most of those said they believed more of what they read in the paid-for newspapers．

Here was something newspapers understood—here was what they could offer: news plus comment and opinion．

And the Internet now offered opportunities．A newspaper was just that: news printed on paper．But the Internet now offered newspapers different places to print, and in different media．

This may explain why the readership of newspapers online in the UK is very different from people who read printed newspapers．

The most popular newspaper in the UK is The Sun and is also the most popular newspaper in the world．The "mid—market" audience mainly reads The Daily Mail．Of the "quality" newspapers, the most popular is the Daily Telegraph．

Online, it's a different story．The most popular site is The Mail, which has 2．3 million "browsers" every day．And the next most popular site is The Guardian.

A．Printed newspapers are disappearing．

B．The most popular newspapers has the most popular newspaper website as well．

C．People from other countries also enjoy reading British newspapers．

D．The free news on the Internet makes people unwilling to buy newspapers．

What conclusion can we draw from the passage?

A．People no longer believe what the Internet tells them．

B．Printed newspapers are out of date．

C．Different readers may have their various reading taste．

What is the main idea of the passage?

A．The UK has the most popular printed newspapers in the world．

B．The condition of British newspapers in the information age．

C．Printed newspapers face a sever challenge．
