The favourable outcomes of vocabulary acquisition can be produced if a variety of factors are taken into consideration. One of the major factors is a rich learning environment that enables language learners to interact with a wide array of contexts. Extensive reading has been used as a tool of widening learners’ vocabulary for many years, but now language teachers face a new challenge – a shorter attention span of their students, which makes the reading process burdensome to many of them. This fact encourages language teachers to switch to narrow reading, and one of the forms that can be easily implemented in the EFL classroom is reading newspaper articles. with the aim to enrich a learning environment due to their short length and a diversity of topics that they can cover. This article aims to prove that reading newspaper articles can foster efficient vocabulary acquisition.
