Answers:
1 the audience seems to be local people where guardian can cover. A couple of times, guardian compares American education system with the British. The words “in Britain---but America ------the local tv channel” can prove that.
2 the villains are Eric Harris and Dylan.
3 there isn’t any hero emerge from the shooting. Everyone inside the school run for their lives.
Guardian chooses more simpler and understanding words than Times. Besides, guardian’s article length is much shorter compared to Times. Furthermore, it appears that guardian didn’t quite catch up with the newest trend of the news.
