There are almost 2,000 of them, as compared with 180 in Japan, 164 in Arg
16、entina 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 Th
17、e Times is in Britain or Le Monde is in France, since each American city has its own daily newspaper. The best of these present 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
18、 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. Jus
19、t as American newspapers satisfy all tastes, so do they also try to attract readers of all political parties. A few newspapers support extremist(极端主义的) groups on the far right and on the far left, but most daily newspapers try to attract middle-of-the-road Americans who are moderate(中立的). Many of th
20、ese papers print columns by well-known journalists of different political and social views, in order to present a balanced picture.As in other countries, American newspapers can be either responsible or irresponsible, but it is generally accepted that the American press serves its country well and t
21、hat it has more than once courageously exposed political scandals(丑闻) or crimes, for instance, the Watergate Affair(水门事件). The Newspapers drew the attention of the public to the horrors of the Vietnam War.36. There are fewer national newspapers in .A. Britain than in the USA. B. France than in Brita

25、twins,life really does imitate art.My twin brother,Kirk,and I grew up being constantly mistaken for each （处理这个问题） other.Classmates,friends,teachers,even relatives couldnt tell us apart. As a result,we were often unfairly punished or rewarded.Eventually,we learned how to use the Mistaken Identity Syn
26、drome (MIS) to our advantage.For example,we would play tricks on our friends and classmates,pretending to be the other twin.Nor were teachers immune(不受某事物影响) to our tricks.On at least one occasion,when Kirk was sick,I covered for (替代) him by taking his tests.We also tried our little game out on Mom,
27、but she always knew who was who.Once we grew up，we even covered for each other at work.We didnt mean any harm;we simply started this as an experiment to see whether our bosses and co-workers could tell the difference.As a bank manager, I meet with dozens of clients(顾客) on a daily basis, while my bro
28、ther manages a staffing service for local employers. As a result, Kirk is constantly approached by people who want to discuss their various money accounts, while Im frequently thanked on the street as a department store customer service representative. However, the MIS took a truly embarrassing turn
29、 when Kirk and I found ourselves unable to tell each other apart. Once, my brother and I were traveling in a car with several friends. My brothers hair must always be in place. Kirk was driving when he noticed in the rearview mirror (后视镜) that his hair was a bit messy. He lifted his right hand to br
30、ush his hair back into place and was disturbed when his hand didnt appear in the mirror. Several times he repeated this action. Finally, he started laughing.40.

33、s brothers hair was really messy. C. His brother was doing the same thing. D. He became the victim of the MIS. CMike McClure walked into Sarasota Bay for a little fishing on a beautiful day last April. This afternoon, the water was shallow enough at low tide that McClure could easily walk 100 yards
34、offshore and cast (投) his line in any direction.Near sunset, still without a fish, he decided to turn back. Rather than turn to his earlier course, he chose a more direct path toward shore, thinking the bay wouldnt get deeper along the way. Instead, he was trapped. He tried to walk in different dire
35、ctions, but shallower water eluded (避开) him. Finally, he decided his safest choice was to head straight for land.Within about five steps, the water was coming in through the top of the waders (高筒防水胶靴), says McClure.He felt the deadweight（重物） of the flooding waders pulling him down and knew that if h
36、e didnt get out of them, he would drown. But he failed to kick his way out of the waders. Instead, they pulled him completely below the surface.Back onshore, Eliza Cameron, 19, Loren Niurka Mora, 20, and Caitlin Petro, 20, had been watching McClure fish as they rested on the grass after a long week
37、of classes. They saw McClure go under and then heard him cry, Help!The three friends kicked off their shoes and ran into the bay. They were all good swimmers, but all hid a fear that he might pull them down too because theyd have to dive to save him.When they reached him, hed managed to kick himself
38、 out of the waders, but his eyes had partly rolled back. Cameron and Mora each hooked (钩住) an arm under his shoulders, while Petro supported his back and held his hand. Then the three friends tried their best to tug (拉) him towards shore. Finally, they all returned to the shore safely.44. Mike McClu
39、re didnt turn back by his earlier course because . A. he wanted to choose a short course B. his earlier course was dangerous C. he just wanted to take a risk D. he knew where the water was deep45.

DWhen I recall my experiences of feeling heard and deeply understood by someone, I know how much the experiences helped m
42、e to cope With (对付) whatever I was dealing with at the time. Caring people who I have turned to in difficult times helped me the most by listening and asking about my feelings.During one of my volunteer jobs at a local HIV and cancer clinic, I found the helpfulness of empathic (感情移入的) listening. As
43、a volunteer I was providing emotional support for people with health related problems. Empathic listening really made a difference on how patients felt about their health problems. By sharing about their pain and suffering and my willingness to listen, they felt less alone.We can make life easier fo
44、r each other by becoming a better listener and encouraging each other to share our feelings. We can become a better listener by avoiding giving advice and trying to solve problems unless we are asked to do so. Pressuring others to solve their life problems“our ways” is not helpful. Most people intui
45、tively (凭直觉地) know how to solve their own problems. As a listener its important to be patient and not to interrupt the speaker. Let them know its OK to talk about their feelings and support them in feeling their feelings.When one neither shares nor reaches out for support, he or she can remain a lon
46、ely mystery. Life can feel lonely when one keeps everything inside. Feeling alone with life problems can be worse than the problem itself. When we let a caring person listen to our life struggle, we will no longer feel alone with our struggle. Dont be afraid to ask your loved ones to take time to he
47、ar you out .Sometimes you have to ask for it. People cannot read your mind. Confiding in others can have a positive effect on our mood.48. What made the author comfortable in difficult times? A.
