　　B

　　No country in the world has more daily newspapers than the USA.There are almost 2,000 of them，as compared with 180 in Japan,164 in Argentina and 111 in Britain.The quality of some American papers is extremely high and their views are quoted all over the world.Famous dailies like the Washington Post or the New York Times have a powerful influence all over the country.However，they are not national newspapers in the sense that The Times is in Britain or Le Monde is in France，since each American city has its own daily newspaper.The best of these presents detailed description of national and international news，but many tend to limit themselves to state or city news.

　　Like the press in most other countries，American newspapers range from the “sensational” which feature crime and gossip(闲谈)，to the “serious”，which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events.But with few exceptions，American newspapers try to entertain as well as give information，for they have to compete with the attraction of television.
