W: Oh, Simon, I see you have today’s paper.
M: Yes, I read the paper every day.
W: So today do we have good news or bad news?
M: Well, world news is always bad, and for me sports are always good. But I felt an earthquake yesterday, and so, I’ve basically looked at the headlines today first and just to see if the earthquake was in the paper, and it was.
W: Nobody died, did they?
M: I don’t think so. Because for me, it felt quite strong.
W: Actually, speaking of papers, I love the paper, and I read it every day. But there is one thing that I hate about the newspaper. That’s you read all the stories on the front page and then they stop, they’re cut in half, and then you have to go to the middle of the paper to finish. And it just drives me nuts because I take the train to work every day, and the train is so crowded. Sometimes I can’t actually turn the paper or fold (折叠) the paper to get to the story on the inside.
M: Yeah, that’s terrible. I do something similar. I also take a busy train in the morning, and I just read the front page and the back page. The front page has the headlines; the back page has the sports. And then when I get to work, if T have free time, I just open up and finish the story that I read.
W: That’s true.
M: I have a question: What do you prefer? Do you prefer the tabloid (通俗小报) style paper, which opens up like a book and you read each page, or do you prefer the traditional paper, which is all folded neatly and into sections (栏,板), like A, B, C, D?
W: Um, that’s a good point. I guess I’m used to the old traditional style. But I have to admit the tabloid style is a lot more convenient, um, so I wouldn’t mind if my paper changed to that style. So what do you prefer?
M: Yeah, I prefer the tabloid, just because it’s easier to read.
W: The only thing I don’t like about some tabloids is that they put a lot of colors on the paper, and it’s not as easy to read as the more traditional papers I think.
M: Well, the other meaning of tabloid is the kind of newspaper that prints just glossy (浮华的,虚有其表的) stories with pictures and usually celebrity news; that’s not really world news or sports.
W: So do you subscribe (订阅) to the newspaper or just buy one every day?
M: I buy one every day, because I sometimes buy different papers.
W: I see.
