21、It was published in Boston, Newport, and Philadelphia.When she was eighteen, Phillis and Mrs Wheatley tried to sell a collection containing twenty-eight of Phillis poems.

Many television companies have used sports to attract vie
36、wers from particular sections of the general public, and then they have sold audiences to advertisers.An attraction of sport programs for the major US media companies is that events are often held on Saturday and Sunday afternoonsthe slowest time periods of the week for general television viewing.

37、port events are the most popular weekend programs, especially among male viewers who may not watch much television at other times during the week.
