    Almost every family buys at least one copy of a newspaper every day. Some people subscri be (订阅) to as many as two or three newspap ers. But why do people read newspapers?
 
Five hundred years ago, news of important ha ppenings —— battles lost and won, kings or r ulers overthrown (推翻) or killed —— took m onths and even years to travel from one coun try to another. The news passed by word of m outh and was never accurate. Today we can re ad in our newspapers of important events tha t occur in far away countries on the same y th ey happen.
