   I can’t understand why people buy ________________________, such as “Darakchi”, “Bekajon” and others, because they don’t contain the real news, just gossip.

   The reason that many people only glance through the papers to read the ______________________ is that they are so busy and don’t have time to read the details in the articles themselves.

   I quite like reading ________________________ because it’s interesting to read the views of the editor on particular issues.
