Television　is　the　USA 
Thirty-four　percent　of　the　world’s　television　sets　are　in　the　USA.　But　it　is　not　fair　that　some　foreigners　have　concluded　that　America　has　a　TV　culture.　Still　it　is　true　that　American　TV　has　great　power　and　can　make　or　break　well-known　people　in　front　of　the　camera.　There　are　a　thousand　stations　in　the　50　states,　and　in　most　places　there　is　a　choice　of　five　or　six　channels.　The　major　networks　(National　Broadcasting　Company,　Columbia　Broadcasting　System　and　the　American　Broadcasting　Company)　introduce　a　lot　of　new　shows　of　every　kind.　Those　dramas,　soap　operas,　talk　shows,　news　shows,　and　sport　shows　which　are　successful,　are　relayed　(转播)　throughout　America　and　are　often　sold　abroad.　Roots,　by　the　black　writer　Ales　Haley,　for　example,　was　sold　all　over　the　world. 
Nearly　all　TV　in　the　USA　is　commercial,　and　programs　are　interrupted　every　quarter　of　an　hour　or　so　for　advertisements.　These　breaks　make　people　upset,　especially　during　some　exciting　action　in　a　good　film.　However,　commercials　do　make　it　possible　to　show　programs　on　TV　that　are　expensive　to　produce. 
There　is　one　channel　where　there　are　no　commercial　breaks.　Programs　on　this　channel　are　run　by　the　Public　Broadcasting　Service　(PBS)　and　can　be　seen　all　over　the　USA.　Although　the　PBS　gets　a　grant　from　the　government,　the　government　does　not　interfere　in　any　way　in　the　organization　of　its　programs.　There　are　programs　on　everyday　affairs,　music,　the　arts,　as　well　as　serious　discussions　on　al　kinds　of　topics.　Some　programs　are　supported　by　companies　or　institutions,　but　these　organizations　are　not　allowed　to　influence　the　content　of　program. 
16.　The　conclusion　made　by　some　foreigners　that　America　has　a　television　culture　is　not　f　. 
17.　A　great　number　of　new　shows　are　introduced　by　t　he　leading　n　in　the　USA. 
18.　There　is　just　one　c　without　breaks　for　advertisements　in　the　USA. 
19.　While　people　are　watching　TV　programs,　breaks　for　advertisements　can　make　them　w　. 
20.　Although　some　companies　supply　money　for　some　programs,　they　are　not　a　to　have　influence　upon　the　content　of　the　programs　in　any　way.

第一篇　How　to　Find　the　Best　Book　Reviews 
Normally,　you　will　want　the　sources　for　a　paper　to　be　the　best　ones　possible.　Since　there　is　a　great　deal　of　material　available　on　most　subjects,　you　don’t　want　to　waste　your　time　reading　an　inaccurate　or　superficial　book.　It　is　sometimes　wise,　therefore,　to　first　evaluate　a　book　for　accuracy　and　thoroughness.　If　you　are　unfamiliar　with　the　subject　of　executive　power,　for　example,　you　may　wonder　whether　or　not　the　book　President　and　Congress;　Power　and　Police,　by　L.　Fisher　(1972),　will　be　a　good　source　of　information.　The　essayist　way　to　find　it　out　is　to　read　some　reviews　of　the　book. 
Book　reviews　appear　in　almost　every　newspaper　and　magazine.　To　quickly　find　the　reviews　you　want,　use　a　reference　book　such　as　Book　Review　Digest.　Beginning　in　1905,　its　editors　annually　compile　(编辑)　book　reviews　from　about　seventh-five　periodicals　(期刊)　and　newspapers　and　need　to　know　two　things　to　use　this　tool:　the　year　the　book　was　published　and　the　correct　spelling　of　the　author’s　name. 
A　reference　book　with　slightly　broader　coverage　(覆盖面)　is　Book　Review　Index　(1966-).　In　it,　however,　summaries　of　the　reviews　are　not　included.　A　newcomer,　Current　Book　Review　Citations　(引证),　is　even　better　for　books　published　from　1976　on,　since　it　indexes　the　book　reviews　that　are　listed　in　many　major　periodicals,　indexes.　One　caution　(警告)　when　searching　for　reviews　in　this　:　if　you　don’t　find　one　under　the　year　a　book　was　published,　look　at　the　following　year　or　years.　Reviews　like　college　students,　sometimes　fall　behind　in　their　writing　schedules.
