Is there any way to use consecutive print statements?

Here's one way:

        print "This is a test of the emergency broadcast system\n" \
          "This is only a test. Had this been an actual\n" \
          "emergency, you would have been given instructions\n" \
          "on where to go and what to do.

Here's another way:

        print "Guten tag! Ich heisse \"%s\", and ich bin von\n" \
          "Dresden. Ich habe %d jaren, und Ich grosse %3.1f\n" \
          "kilogramme. Anschildegung. Meine Deustch ist nicht\n" \
          "so gut." % ( "Josef", 33, 85.3 )

And yet another way:

        print "This is"+" a test"+" of string concatenation, "+ \
              "which can be very expensive."

Note that the % operator isn't just for print. For example, you
do something like:

        str = "Hi, my name is \"%s\"" % "Fred"

And then, how about:

import sys
write = sys.stdout.write

write("sp")
write("am")
