I agree with the statement that no

phenomenon and then
will present some solutions that can help us to revive news consumption amoung t

The first
this
behaviour is the scarcity of free time

third
reason that I will hihglihgt i
s the generation gap between those preparing the news content
and the young generation. The newspaper and the TV
channels have been reluctant in adopting writing styles and distribution channels that are most reelvant t
o young people. Maybe they have never considered the younger lot as their target market. having a bearing on or connection with the subject at issue

In light of the above mentioned causes now I will suggest some solutions that might help newspapers and about to be mentioned or specified

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples
Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.
Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.
When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.
Linking words for giving examples:
- for example
- for instance
- to illustrate this
- to give a clear example
- such as
- namely
- to illustrate
- take, for example
