Halloween is an autumn holiday that Americans celebrate every year。 It means "holy evening," and it comes every October 31, the evening before All Saints Day。 However, it is not really a church holiday, it is a holiday for children mainly。

Every autumn, when the vegetables are ready to eat, children pick large orange pumpkins。 Then they cut faces in the pumpkins and put a burning candle inside。 It looks as if there were a person looking out of the pumpkin! These lights are called jack—o—lanterns, which means "Jack of the lantern"。

The children also put on strange masks and frightening costumes every Halloween。 Some children paint their faces to look like monsters。 Then they carry boxes or bags from house to house。 Every time they come to a new house, they say,"Trick or treat! Money or eat!" The grown—ups put treat—money or candy in their bags。

Not only children, but most grown—ups also love Halloween and Halloween parties because on this day,they can disguise themselves as personages or ghost as their imaginations will lead them。 This bring them the satisfaction of being young。

After a brief reunion with our American aunt, we soon embarked on a trip to the east of the United States. Our first stop was New York.

Caucus goers met at sites around the state to show support for their candidate and be counted in the first contest of the 2016 Presidential nominating cycle.

This year the Iowa caucuses drew many first-time caucus-goers.

John Clark is one of them. He says that he took the time to caucus in order to make his voice heard.

"I feel like its part of being American as you get the chance to do this, you get the chance to say what you believe in, and have a voice and vote."

Thanking his supporters, Ted Cruz relished in a major victory over Donald Trump, the national poll leader.

"Iowa has sent notice that the republican nominee in the next president of the United States will not be chosen by the media, will not be chosen by the Washington establishment, will not be chose by the lobbyists but will be chosen by the most incredible power for force where all sovereignty resides in our nation by we the people, the American people."

Trump is a controversial figure among Iowa voters.

"I think he can bring the rights to change the government back to the people."

"I can say I will not be supporting Trump. Our views just dont agree. I believe in equality and respect for all people and I dont think he does."

Despite a disappointing second place finish for the often bombastic real-estate mogul, Trump was gracious in conceding defeat.

"I am really honored. And I want to congratulate Ted and I want to congratulate all of the incredible candidates including Mike Huckabee."

Analysts say that Florida Senator Marco Rubio is likely to enjoy increased momentum going forward.

Rubio finished a solid third, just one percentage point behind Trump but well ahead of the rest of the GOP field.

Hillary Clinton endured a nail-biter of a night that finished in a virtual tie with Bernie Sanders.

Clinton says she will keep fighting on in her address to supporters.

"I want you to know I will keep doing what I have done my entire life. I will keep standing up for you. I will keep fighting for you. I will always work to achieve the America that I believe in where the promise of that dream that we hold out to our children and our grandchildren never fades but inspires generations to come. Join me, lets go win the nomination."

Although for many, tonight is just the beginning of a long slog to the two major parties national conventions in August, it also marks the end of the line for candidates who failed to gain traction.

Two contenders: Maryland Governor Martin OMalley and former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, dropped out after poor showings today in Iowa.

The topic like“what’s a university?” or “what a university should do?” has been discussed many times in every age. Not only educationalists but also students take into it. Is it necessary to give priority to skills and knowledge in university education as they are essential to employers? Or students in universities should have access to all of knowledge just as they have their own sake? Chose A or B, this is a problem.

The value of knowledge itself need to be considered first in university education even though the course is not as practical as skills and technology. In Chinese culture, morality education is always took at first. It said that the way of real learning is to develop and expand virtue, to innovate peoples’ opinions, to get the best goodness. In addition, there are four stages in the success of a gentleman: first, to cultivate his moral characters; second, regulate his own family; third, rule the state successfully; forth, let the world get peace. In Chinese traditional value, students in

university need to develop his morality firstly, though these knowledge is not as useful as other skills after they get a job.

On the other hand, the practicability of a university course is also worth considering, especially in the age when our government call for the attention to skills and technology in university education and when the employees prefer to capacity and practical knowledge of employers. The time in university is limited and conditions and aims of students are different. When students chose which course to learn, it is inevitable for some of them prefer to those which are more needed in workplace.

Universities give equal access to all of knowledge, including the practical courses and others. What’s more, they need give more chance to students to choose what to learn. Congratulate on diversity!

现在,许多人喜欢出国留学。出国留学经常被认为是一个很好的机会,它能使人在旅途中获得光明的未来。我们不仅可以从国外学习不同的文化和知识,出国留学也可以丰富我们的生活。

一枚硬币有两面。同样,不同的人有不同的想法。对出国留学的保守和消极的关注已经逐渐从我们的社会中显现出来。人们开始怀疑出国留学出了什么问题。有几个问题值得我们讨论。

出国留学的不利因素可能影响文化和经济生活。我们中国人如果出国留学,在国外生活,就会经历文化冲击。有些同龄人可能无法适应新的学习和生活环境,这可能与他们的学习环境大不相同。生活是美好的,是艰难的。如果一个人对另一个国家的新文化感到不舒服,他在那个国家学习不会感到高兴。

此外,出国留学可能会给学生造成许多生活费。一些中国学生在学业上很成功,因此在学习中获得奖学金。然而,大多数出国留学的同行都没有获得奖学金。此外,他们不得不远离父母和祖国,应付许多意想不到的困难。例如,医疗保险、日常饮食、衣服、租金和交通运输可以产生大量的生活费用。通常,他们需要在很大程度上依赖父母的海外月供。

在车上,我问三姨:“三姨,为什么Mary抱的小孩不是美国人呢?”三姨告诉我:“因为小孩是他们在中国收养的,她们当中收养小孩的就有40几个家庭,她们的家庭大部分已经有两、三个孩子了,可他们照样来收养中国孩子。”我心想:美国人还是挺有善心的嘛!不会像中国人想象的那么坏。

To be an American is, as Henry James famously observed, a complex fate. But complexity was that rococo masters stock-in-trade, which may explain why he returned to his native country in 1904 after an absence of more than 20 years. To be sure, he was interested in a Jamesian walk down memory lane, with its full quota of meditative hairsplitting. Yet he also meant to take advantage of his hybrid status as a Europeanized American. I made no scruple, James explains in his introduction, of my conviction that I should understand and should care better and more than the most earnest of visitors, and yet that I should vibrate with more curiosity ... than the pilgrim with the longest list of questions. Vibrate he did, in the ornate and extraordinary periods of his late phase, and the result was a one-of-a-kind travel book, The American Scene.What appalls him the most, though, is the Almighty Dollar, which he perceives as the preliminary American postulate, the very bedrock of New World life: This basis is that of active pecuniary gain and of active pecuniary gain only--that of ones making the conditions so triumphantly pay that the prices, the manners, the other inconveniences, take their place as a friction it is comparatively easy to salve, wounds directly treatable with the wash of gold. Some will argue that the fussbudget author had spent too much time in England, where money remained a dirty word until after the Second World War. Others may find his diagnosis eerily prescient. In any case, The American Scene remains required reading for anybody interested in U.S. history, Henry James, or the incredible evolution of the compound sentence.

the american revolution was not a sudden and violent overturning of the political and social framework, such as later occurred in france and russia, when both were already independent nations. significant changes were ushered in, but they were not breathtaking. what happened was accelerated evolution rather than outright revolution. during the conflict itself people went on working and praying, marrying and playing. most of them were not seriously disturbed by the actual fighting, and many of the more isolated communities scarcely knew that a war was on.

america's war of independence heralded the birth of three modern nations. one was canada, which received its first large influ of english-speaking population from the thousands of loyalists who fled there from the united states. another was australia, which became a penal colony now that america was no longer available for prisoners and debtors. the third newcomer-the united states-based itself squarely on republican principles.

yet even the political overturn was not so revolutionary as one might suppose. in some states, notably connecticut and rhode island, the war largely ratified a colonial self-rule already eisting. british officials, everywhere ousted, were replaced by a home-grown governing class, which promptly sought a local substitute for king and parliament.

The understanding of American culture must not end with what we know on TV, because she has the most distinctive features of her own, which is diversity. As a country with a large immigrant population, the United States does not have a unique way of life, there is no only standard of conduct, and there is no unique culture. The diversity of the United States penetration in all aspects of the country, the following guidelines may not be able to help you overcome all from the cultural differences, but hope to everyone to prepare for the basic study in the United States and general plan to help.

Americans have a very different lifestyle than Chinese people. American food is light and easy to make, and the main course is meat, fish and chicken. A meal usually consists of only one main course, and salads and coffee are by no means less. Hot dogs and hamburgers are two of the most popular fast foods.

Americans are so active that more than a fifth of them move every year. The most detailed list of houses and apartments available on Sunday in newspapers across the country can be used to find homes or to find local estate agents. In addition to paying for rent, the rent house generally pays for utilities, namely gas, electricity, heating, hot water and simple electrical repairs and other repairs. The rent is usually a month, usually on the first day of the month. Electricity in most parts of the United States is 110-120 volts, 60Hz.

Almost every home in the United States has a car, and the American highway is very developed and accessible, so many americans work very far from where they live. They often go on a family trip during the holidays. The most popular means of transportation in the city are buses and subways. The subway is usually run day and night. Taxis are usually paid by distance or by distance. The whole country executes the right driving, the big city executes traffic regulation especially strict.

The American concept of time

Because of the fierce competition, the American society is full of movement and change, people are always in a hurry, and the result also has formed the americans time view of tension. "Time is money" is the most accurate expression of the American attitude to time. Americans value time more than just because they think time is a tangible thing, but more importantly they recognize the urgency and lack of time. Americans believe that the question of time can fully reflect a persons self-cultivation, and his respect for others. Therefore, it is necessary to have a detailed schedule and strict adherence to it.

So we stress that being on time is not just about the individuals schedule, but if youre not on time, it reflects your lack of respect for others time. In the study of life, apart from being on time, it is necessary to observe the deadline of various learning tasks. American schools generally teach students a subject, and then a group of students form a study group. Everyone is responsible for different aspects of learning team, if you dont have the prescribed deadline to complete you responsible for that part, influence is the whole teams performance, it is also a lot of American students constantly complaining about a problem. So being on time is a basic requirement for studying and living in the United States.

The way americans communicate

Talking to people is the most basic form of interpersonal communication. When youre talking to friends from all over the world, youre not just talking to each other, youre communicating with each other. The way language is expressed can often reflect the characteristics of a particular region or country.

Direct refreshing

Most of the time, conversations in the United States belong to a tendency to get information. They like to ask a lot of questions, and in a very direct way. They will use the most simple and direct language to get the information they want, the process, if they do not pay too much attention to wording beautiful, whether express tactfully, it sometimes inevitably conceded the interlocutors have a feeling not too polite. Answer this question, too, when the answer is no, americans will tell you "no" directly, also wont go to touch up for his answer, and if you dont have to know in advance to their speech habits, it felt embarrassed is inevitable.

Positive questions

Another obvious feature of the American way of communication is that there is no hesitation in asking questions. In the course of conversation, if americans dont understand what they dont understand, they often ask each other questions in a timely manner until they understand it. This feature is encouraged in class. In American classrooms, students can present any questions to the classroom at any time, and the lecturers will be more than happy to answer questions for students. Therefore, American classroom will always make students absorb knowledge in a relaxed, interactive and positive atmosphere.

body language

The tools of human communication are not just words, but body language. Spoke of the gestures, body posture, and facial expressions are the key to proper use of body language, we will divide the occasion, object, subject of flexible adjustment and use body language. Eye contact is the key of the above elements. Keep your eyes on the other side of the conversation while youre talking. This is something americans value too much.

Here are a few topics that can be used to talk to almost all americans:

Weather and mood

Some of my past experiences

My own campus life, or work content

Car, fashion, shopping, TV, music, clothing and other casual topics

At the same time, we should avoid the following topics:

Savings, income and other topics related to the personal economic situation

Family situation

Religious beliefs and so on

The last thing to note is that when you dont have a good grasp of your sense of humor, its best not to play it at will. You know, different countries, different culture, have different understanding of humor, and the appropriate humor can active conversation atmosphere, it is easy to cause unnecessary misunderstanding, or conversely.

Were divided into 50 states, each state has different administrative rules and regulations, combined with geographical location, climate condition difference, leads to the residents of the states have different living habits. The same is true of Americas diversity.

Climate change is a top priority. On the other hand is psychological preparation. Residents in different regions have different characteristics, such as: the east people look is always in a hurry, rush about for work, but with their southern leisurely, quiet and warm hospitality is famous for its character, the residents of the Midwests character can be described as practical, stubborn, and tradition, the western residents seem to be more independent, attach importance to individualism, live along the west coast of the United States people impressed us is recreational, relaxed and optional. Youre going to be on a trip to the United States, and youre going to have to look at the cities where youre going to school, and youre going to have a general idea of what youre going to do in these areas.

对于美国文化的认识决不能止于从电视上了解到的内容,因为,她有着自己最鲜明的特点,那就是多样性。作为一个拥有庞大移民人口的国家而言,美国不存在唯一的生活方式,不存在唯一的行为标准,更不存在唯一的文化。美国的多样性渗透在国家的各个方面,以下的指南也许不能帮你克服所有因文化差异而带来的困扰,但希望能对大家为留学美国而做的基本准备和大致计划有所帮助。

美国人的生活习惯与中国人有很大不同,美国食物味道清淡,制作简单迅速,主菜为肉、鱼、鸡类。一餐中一般仅一道主菜,而沙拉和咖啡是绝不能少的。热狗和汉堡包是最流行的两种快速食品。

美国人生性好动,每年都有超过1/5的人搬家。各地星期日的报纸登载周内租售房屋与寓所的最详尽名单,可以通过这些资料找房子,也可以找当地的地产经纪人。租房子除要付租外,一般还要付公用事业费,即煤气、电、暖气、热水和简单的电器修理及其他修理费。租金通常一个月,一般每月的第一天付。美国大部分地区的电力为110-120伏,60Hz。

美国几乎每家都有小汽车,美国的高速路十分发达,四通八达,因此很多美国人工作地点与居住地很远。在假日里,他们经常全家驾车出游。市内最常用的交通工具是公共汽车和地铁。地铁一般都是日夜开行。出租汽车一般按路程(短程)或时间(远程)计费。全国实行靠右行车,大城市执行交通法规尤为严格。

美国人的时间观念

美国社会由于竞争激烈,充满了运动和变化,人们始终处于奔忙之中,结果也就养成了美国人的紧张时间观。“时间就是金钱”这句话是美国人对于时间的态度的最准确表达。美国人对于时间的珍视不仅仅因为他们认为时间是一种切实的事物,更重要的是他们认识到了时间的紧迫和缺乏。美国人相信,在时间的问题上可以充分反应出一个人的自身素质修养,以及他对于他人的尊重。所以,有一份详细的作息时间表,并严格的遵守它,是相当必要的。

所以我们强调做到准时,不仅仅是关乎到个人的日程安排,若你没有做到准时,反应出的是你对他人时间的不尊重。在学习生活中,除了准时上课外,更需要遵守的是各种学习任务的截止时间安排。美国学校的教学方式一般是老师安排给学生一项课题,然后会由学生几个人之间结成学习小组共同来进行。学习小组中的每个人都会负责不同的方面,如果你没有在规定的截止日期内完成你负责的那一部分,影响的就是整个小组的成绩,这也是很多美国学生不断在抱怨的一个问题。所以,做到准时是在美国学习和生活的一个最基本的要求。

美国人的交流方式

与人交谈是人际交往中最基础的形式。当你与来自世界各地的朋友们交谈时,你们之间交流的不仅仅是彼此的观点和话题,更深层次的是在进行着文化的交流。语言表达的方式往往可以反应出某个地区或是某个国家的特色。

◎直接爽快

大多时候,美国人的谈话属于有一种想要获取信息的趋势。他们喜欢提出很多问题,并且是用很直接的方式。他们会用最简单直接的语言表达来获取自己想要的信息,这过程中,他们并不太在意措辞是否优美,意思表达是否婉转等问题,这有时不免会让与之对话者有一种不太礼貌的感觉。回答问题也是一样,当答案是否定的时候,美国人会直接告诉你“不“,同样不会去为他的答案进行润色,若是你没有提前了解到他们这种说话习惯,那感觉尴尬就是在所难免的了。

◎积极提问

美国人的交流方式中还有一个明显的特点就是毫不犹豫的提问。在交谈过程中,如果美国人有不明白,没听清的地方时,他们通常会及时的向对方把问题提出,直到弄懂为止。这一特点在课堂上成为被鼓励的做法。在美国的课堂上,学生可以随时向授课教室提出任何相关问题,而授课者都会极为乐意的为学生解答问题。所以,美国的课堂总是会让学生在轻松,互动,积极的氛围里吸收知识。

◎肢体语言

人类交流的工具不仅仅是语言,还有肢体语言。说话时的手势,身体的姿势,以及脸部的表情都是恰当运用肢体语言的关键,我们要分场合,分对象,分话题的灵活调整和运用肢体语言。其中目光接触则是上述要素中的关键。交谈时要时刻保持自己的目光是与对方相接触的,目光自然和善即可。这一点也是美国人相当看重的。

这里我们给大家提供几个很适合与几乎所有美国人交谈的话题:

天气情况和心情

自己以往的某些经历

自己的校园生活,或是工作内容

汽车,时尚,购物,影视,音乐,服装等休闲话题

同时我们应该避免以下话题:

存款,收入等与个人经济情况有关的话题

家庭情况

宗教信仰等等

最后需要提醒大家的一点是,当你对自己的幽默感并没有十足的把握时,最好不要随意发挥它。要知道,不同国家,不同文化,对幽默的认识是有所不同的,恰当的幽默可以活跃谈话气氛,反之则很容易引起不必要的误解或是不愉快。

美国一共划分为50个州,每个州都有不同的行政法规,再加上地理位置,气候条件的差异,就导致了各州的居民都有着不同的生活习惯。这里同样体现的是美国的多样性。

气候不同是首要考虑的问题。另外一方面就是心理上的准备。不同地区的居民有着不同的性格特征,比如:东部的人看起来总是匆匆忙忙的,为工作而奔波着,南部的人却是以他们悠闲,平静并且热情好客的性格特点而闻名,中西部的居民的性格可以被形容成实际的,固执的,还有一点传统,西部居民显得比较独立,重视个人主义,沿西海岸居住的美国人给我们的印象就是休闲,放松,随意。将要踏上美国之旅的你,需要针对就读学校所处城市,在这些方面搜集资料,提前有个大体的概念。

篇18:美国革命的历史意义英语作文

全文共 1365 字

the ways of history are so intricate and the motivations of human actions so complex that it is always hazardous to attempt to represent events covering a number of years, a multiplicity of persons, and distant localities as the expression of one intellectual or social movement; yet the historical process which culminated in the ascent of thomas jefferson to the presidency can be regarded as the outstanding example not only of the birth of a new way of life but of nationalism as a new way of life.

the american revolution represents the link between the seventeenth century, in which modern england became conscious of itself, and the awakening of modern europe at the end of the eighteenth century. it may seem strange that the march of history should have had to cross the atlantic ocean, but only in the north american colonies could a struggle for civic liberty lead also to the foundation of a new nation.

here, in the popular rising against a "tyrannical" government, the fruits were more than the securing of a freer constitution. they included the growth of a nation born in liberty by the will of the people, not from the roots of common descent, a geographic entity, or the ambitions of king or dynasty.

with the american nation, for the first time, a nation was born, not in the dim past of history but before the eyes of the whole world.
