Example 3

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-23672538

^ An article from the Magazine section of the BBC's news website. This article explains some new plans for a bridge
across the Irish Sea, among others...

The audience for the above article would range in terms of gender and age would specifically be suited to and read
 by those who have a particular interest in infrastructure and architecture in both the UK and Ireland. A typical age for 
a reader of such article would be the more mature adult however it would  entirely depend upon the interest of the 
person. It also appears that the article itself Has also been written by someone with a keen interest in infrastructure 
at it seemed very biased towards the positives of these new plans and throughout appears to suggest that the new
 plans should be brought into place and that they are all very good ideas for the future. 

People who use of this article is to inform readers are upcoming plans to offer an opinion on them As this article is 
not news based offering both sides of the story like the BBC's other main news mediums it is simply there to inform 
about the positives of new plans that could come into play. As this article is also there to inform it appears there are 
a wide range of facts throughout the article. Allowing the reader to understand the full extent of the new plans. 

Images have been used after each plan has been explained to help the reader to see how the plans could look in 
the near future if everything went ahead. The use of the images after the text is a good way of summing everything 
up that had previously been mentioned on the paragraph above. 

The distinct use of facts throughout act as a persuasive technique as they persuade you that this is a good idea 
and that the plans are well thought through. The repetitive use of short sentences also concisely arranges all facts 
together. 

The producer of this text, clearly being someone who is interested in infrastructure himself, means that this offers 
a positive view on the upcoming plans and the good reasons for them.
