15．One hot summer I was traveling down the freeway on a day trip to Los Angeles．During my journey down the highway，another motorist suddenly started cutting into my lane．Being in the far right lane，my car was forced onto the shoulder of the road．Being an experienced driver，I steered my car back onto the highway，the motorist drove away without saying anything．
While I wasn't very happy with the person for cutting in front of me，I decided to consider it an honest mistake-a lack of attention to the lane change or a driver lost in thought．It certainly could not have been done on purpose．The car sped away after cutting in front me and was soon out of sight．
After a while，I caught up with the same motorist on the side of the road．He was an elderly gentleman who was walking along the side of the freeway on this hot day．With his car stopped on the side of the road and the nearest services at least twenty miles away，I decided to stop and see what the problem was．
The man's car had a flat tire，and while he had a spare tire，he didn't have a jack．I decided to help him and allowed him to sit in my air-conditioned car while I changed his tire．Fifteen minutes later，I was hot，sweaty and dirty，but I did feel good after doing something for someone．

2．Americans are obsessed （着迷的） with telling their life stories．This phenomenon isn't simply the product of the technological world．（36）F．People are eager to tell stories and are fascinated by those of others．Even at preschool，"sharing time"is a common Monday-morning activity where the teenagers will sit in a circle and take turns telling a story about something they did over the weekend．
      （37）C．In many Asian countries，talking about and drawing attention to oneself can be seen as socially inappropriate．People are often unwilling to share their life stories and do not encourage others to do so．But there are also times when Asians do share their stories．（38）A．Asians believe that a person is largely decided by his or her social status and relationships，leaving little reason to broadcast detailed and revealing personal stories to establish a unique self．
    Ironically，the more unique Americans strive to be，the greater their need to feel connected with others．In their culture of individuality，relationships are highly mobile and can be easily formed or dissolved（破裂）．
    Sharing personal stories brings them closer through the exchange of thoughts，feelings and desires．（39）E．But this motivation is not nearly as strong among Asians，for whom social relations are generally unconditional，obligatory（义不容辞的） and stable，and therefore require little maintenance（维护）．
（40）G．American parents encourage children to share their stories and create opportunities to re-experience the past with children．Asian parents，by contrast，engage their children in telling personal stories less frequently．When they do talk about a child's experiences，they are not particularly concerned with parent-child bonding but tend to focus on disciplining the child．

D．It connects them like many different points，holding their society together．

G．Interestingly，this obsession is not necessarily shared in other cultures．

19．Advertising gives useful information about which products to buy．But modern advertising does more than gives news about products and services．Today's advertisements，or ads，try to get consumers to buy certain brands．Writers of advertising are so skillful that they can，sometimes persuade a consumer to wear a certain kind of clothing，eat a special kind of food，or see a movie．Consumers might never even want a product if they did not see or hear advertisements for it．
For example，you probab1y do not need the newest cereal in the supermarket．There are probably many cereal brands on your kitchen shelves．You may not have space on a shelf for another．But if you see ads about a new cereal that is your extra-tasty and has a free prize in the box，you may want it．
Advertising must get attention．To be effective，it must be exciting，entertaining，or provide some pleasure．The secret of writing good advertising copy is to offer a good idea as well as a product．The idea is what the ad is really selling．One example is an ad that says eating a certain cereal will make a person do well in sports．That cereal brand may sell better if consumers think it offers strength and energy．

14．Mother's Day can date back to the ancient Greeks，who held festivities （庆典） in honor of Rhea，the mother of the gods．And the early Christians celebrated Mother's Day on the fourth Sunday of Lent （大斋期） in honor of Mary，the mother of Christ．However，the Mother's Day was cancelled because of lack of time．In 1872，Julia Ward Howe organized a day for mothers who were working hard for the cause of peace．It is great landmark in the history of Mother's Day．
In 1907，Anna M．Jarvis，a teacher from Philadelphia，started a movement to set up a national Mother's Day in honor of her mother．Then a celebration was held for Anna's mother．Anna presented some white carnations，her mother's favorite flowers，to her mother on that day．Seven years later，Anna's hard work finally paid off and in 1914，President Woodrow Wilson announced the second Sunday in May as a national holiday for mothers．
Gradually，Mother's Day became very popular in the US．Actually，the second Sunday of May has become the most popular day of the year．Even though Anna has been dead for long，Mother's Day lives on and has spread to lots of countries all over the world．Although many countries around the world celebrate Mother's Day at different dates，some countries including Denmark，Finland，Italy，Turkey，Australia and Belgium still celebrate Mother's Day on the second Sunday of May．
