USA Today is a national American daily newspaper published by the Gannett Company.It was founded by A1 Neuharth in 1982 with the goal of providing a national newspaper in the US market,where generally only a single local newspaper was available.The paper has the widest circulation (发行量) of any newspaper in the United States,averaging over 2.25 million copies every weekday.It was the first color newspaper in the United States.
The newspaper was also among the first newspapers to use satellites to send the final edition of the newspaper to different locations across the country for printing and distributing in those regional markets.This allowed the paper to include the most recent news and sports scores in each edition.
Each edition of the newspaper consists of four sections:News,Money,Sports and Life.On Fridays,two Life sections are included:the regular life for movies subtitled Weekend,which features television,films and trends,and a travel supplement called Destinations & Diversions.Each section is denoted (表示) by a certain color to differentiate sections,which is seen in a box on the topleft corner of the first page,with News being blue (section A),Money with green (section B),red for Sports (section C),and purple for Life (section D).
USA Today prints each complete story on the front page of the respective(各自的) section with exception to the cover story.The cover story is a longer story that requires a jump (readers must turn to another page in the paper to complete the story,usually the very next page,page 2 of that section).
Starting in February 2008,the newspaper added a magazine supplement(增刊)called Open Air,appearing several times a year.

As a child grows up, you may wonder how you can teach him to become a respectful adult.__1__ A child who learns to respect not only learns to receive respect from others in kind, but also learns to respect himself.
●Show him respect.
This is the best way to teach your child how to respect others.Listen to your child attentively and he will learn to listen to you, understanding how important this is in communication.

● Control your impulse to overreact.
When a situation arises, stay calm and keep in mind that you are supposed to be modeling correct behavior.__4__
●Praise, praise, praise
So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how to correct it that his accomplishments are not celebrated enough. __5__

Nearly five years before,with the help by our father,my sister and I planted some cherry tomatoes(圣女果)in our back garden.Since then—for all these year—we had been allowing tomatoes to selfseed where they please.As result,the plants are growing somewhere.The fruits are small in size,but juicy and taste.There are so much that we often share them with our neighbors.Although we allow tomato plants to grow in the same place year after year,but we have never had any disease or insect attack problems.We are growing wonderfully tomatoes at no cost!
