What do you guys read?

What do you guys read and how frequently? Reason I'm asking this is because I have to interview about ten people as part of one of the assignments in the work I'm doing in Summer School. Why am I enrolled in Summer School this summer? I'm just trying to get that Literacy Course credit so that I won't have to put up with that shitty OSSLT again, which was held in march of second semester for the second time since last year (the school I took this thing at is...well.....for the most part, shitty management-wise). As far as I know, this'll last from July 2nd yesterday up until July 29th (and thankfully, there's no exam for this puppy).
In case you guys need to know about what is listed in the survey itself, here's a detailed summary of how it's structured:

And as for what's listed in the survey itself, here it is:There's about 17 categories, with three of them having a total of 18 sub-categories altogether. There are three sections next to those categories underneath the frequency that whoever or whatever individual reads that particular category or sub-category, each labeled as 'Rarely', 'Sometimes', and 'Often'. The rest of the assignment also mentions charting all that data on either a line, bar, or pie graph which has to be done on either graph or blank paper. Do note that this is just part of "one" assignment, and that is the very first one.
Personally, this one isn't really my favourite thing since I'm not much of a conversation sort of guy (surveys aren't something I'm up for). So, can you guys lend me a hand with this? It would be great if you did.1. Internet Sites:
