The US has a tradition of religious tolerance and every resident (居民) has total freedom of religion without hindrance from the state or community.
Although the influence of religion decreased in most Western socie?ties in the latter part of the 20th century,the US has remained religious (it's one of the world's most deeply religious nations) . The national motto "In God We Trust" is in?scribed upon US coins,and the pledge of allegiance (效忠宣誓) to the American flag still refers to the US as "one nation under God" despite a few legal attempts to have the words removed. Religion is a part of Americans' everyday life (only sport is taken more seriously) .
More than 90 per cent of Americans claim to believe in God (and Mammon) , two thirds are members of a local church or temple and around 4. 5 per cent attend religious services at least once a week. Some 60 per cent of Americans are Protestant,25 per cent Roman Catholic,2 per cent Jewish,1 per cent Orthodox and 4 per cent belong to other religions such as Buddhist,Hindu or Moslem (the remaining 8 per cent claim no religion) .
Not surprisingly,more Americans believe in heaven (around 80 per cent) than hell (65 per cent) , and 70 per cent believe in life after death. As a consequence of the diverse religions,Americans refer to "first" or "given" names,rather than "Christian" names.
Astonishingly,around one third of Americans claim to be " bornagain Chris?tians" ,because they believe life starts anew (重新) when you commit yourself to Jesus Christ (being born again doesn't,however,guarantee you a longer life) . They believe that every word in the Bible is literally true and that Darwin's theory of evo?lution is false. The southern and southwest regions are known as the "bible belt" because of such people's firm belief. In many parts of the US,there's a determina?tion by religious believers to force nonbelievers into their views,often through socalled street preachers (传道者) .

My parents and I went to the park on last Sunday. There were lots of visitors stood in front of the ticket window. We waited a long time and buy three tickets. In the Tiger Mountain of the park,I was too eager to see the fierce frightened animals that I quickened my steps through the crowd. Unfortunate,I got separated from my parents. I had hard time looking for him,but I had no luck. Wandering in the park,I felt alone without any companions. Worse still,I had no money,so I had to walk home,covered as far as 5 kilometres.

Kids' health ： four steps for fighting stress Everybody gets stressed from time to time. 22 Some ways of dealing with stress―like screaming or hit?ting someone―don't solve much. But other ways,like talking to someone you trust,can lead you to solving your problem or at least feeling better.
Try taking these four steps next time you are stressed ：
(1) Get support. When you need help,reach out to the people who care about you. Talk to a trusted adult,such as a parent or other relatives. 23 They might have had similar prob?lems,such as dealing with a test,or the death of a belov?ed pet.
(2) Don't take it out on yourself. Sometimes when kids are stressed and upset they take it out on themselves. Oh,dear,that's not a good idea. Remember that there are always people to help you. 24
(3) Try to solve the problem. After you're calm and you have support from adults and friends,it's time to get down to business. 25 Even if you can't solve it all,you can solve a piece of it.
(4) Be positive. Most stress is temporary (暂时的) . Remember stress does go away,especially when you fig?ure out the problem and start working on solving it.
These steps aren't magic,but they do work. And if you can stay positive as you make your way through a tough time,you'll help yourself feel better even faster. 26
A. Ask for a helping hand to get you through the tough situation.
B. Notice your friends' feelings and find a way to help them.
C. Different people get rid of stress in different ways.
D. Ah,it feels so good when the stress is gone.
E.You need to figure out what the problem is.
F.And don't forget about your friends.
G. Then,find a way to calm down.
1. Failure is the mother of success. Keep your courage and you'll succeed.
