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 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, tow 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 different sections, which is seen in a box on the top-left corner of the first page, with News being blue(section A), Money with green (section B), red for Sportd (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 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.

Recently,people in US education have gotten extremely worried because a new report has shown that American students have a math problem.

The 2015 Program for International Student Assessment（评估）(PISA) shows math scores in the US getting lower and no improvement in science or reading.PISA tests 15-year-olds from different countries and regions in their math,science and reading skills.About 540,000 students from 72 countries and regions took part in the assessment in 2015.

US scores in reading and science were about the same as three years ago,leaving Americans near the middle of the bigger group.But the situation in math is much more worrying.The US average score was 470,be;ow the OECD（经合组织）test average of 490,meaning the US was No.40 among the 72 countries and areas.It was 12 points lower than in 2012 and 18 points lower than in 2009.So,what is going on with American students' math skills?

One reason may be that the US does not teach math in enough depth."Students are often good at answering the first part of a problem in the United States,"said Andreas Schleicher,director of education and skills at OECD."But as soon as students have to go deeper and answer the more complicated part of a problem,they have difficulties."In comparison,many high-performing countries and regions in math teach a lot less but focus in much greater depth, especially when you look at East Asia,Japan and Singapore,according to Schleicher.

Another reason may be the fact that many people in the US are unwilling to travel to foreign countries to learn better teaching practices."One of our biggest challenges in the US is that the teachers are not going out and seeing what high-performing countries do differently,"said Wendy Kopp,who started Teach for America,in a news program.

1.When it comes to the 2015 PISA results,people in US education are more concerned about .

A. the US average score

C. American math teachers envy high-performing countries better teaching skills.

D. American math teachers seldom teach students how to solve complicated problems.

The gray-haired lady can’t wait to leave the building to search for her dad. Unless watched, she will walk in the streets in an effort to find her father, who died 30 years ago.

Not all cases of Alzheimer’s disease look like this, but Alzheimer’s is a serious disease that is said to be the fourth or fifth leading cause of death for people over age 75. It is said that about three percent of the U.S. population over age 65 have Alzheimer’s. In the early stages; people may exhibit short-term memory loss. Some may experience changes in personality, easy to be angry. As the disease progresses, patients might lose the ability to move and may be unable to speak or move at all. This progressive disease generally lasts 8 to 10 years before death occurs.

While no one is certain what causes these changes in the brain’s nerve fibers, their effect is certain. Alzheimer’s destroys not only the patients, but also spouses（配偶）, friends and families.

What should you do if you notice progressive memory loss in yourself or a loved one? Have the person examined by a doctor who is a specialist in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Though many reasons other than Alzheimer’s disease may cause memory loss, its early diagnosis（诊断）and treatment may delay some of the most serious effects.

What feeling will you likely experience if a loved one suffers from Alzheimer’s disease? A person will often go through the various stages of sadness, shock, anger, and so on. If the spouse develops the disease, you may experience hurt and disappointment when he or she doesn’t remember you are married.

Life for the Alzheimer’s patients and their loved ones will never be the same as the disease progresses, bringing a deep sorrow, loss and even anger towards God. No matter what feelings are present, facing them honestly will serve one better than burying them.
