歼20让美国震惊经典20篇

在美国的这段时间里，我觉得美国的水果很特别。我见到了我以前没见过的果子——无花果。

在我们散步的路上，有一棵很大的无花果树，树上结满了果子，地上掉得到处都是，但就是没人摘没人捡。我问妈妈，“为什么果子成熟了没人摘呢?”妈妈告诉我美国很多家庭在院子里种果树不是为了吃，而是为了观赏!他们自己到超市里买果子吃，自己院子里的水果是不摘的，让它生长成熟甚至掉地上了。

无花果的皮是淡紫色的，可好看了!远远望去，真像一个小茄子。如果将无花果那“茄子皮”拨开的话，会露出一段可爱的“小香蕉”，“小香蕉”比真正的香蕉都还有营养呢! 如果大家想知道这无花果味道怎么样的话，会感觉到酸酸甜甜的，特好吃。还有，被咬过的无花果上面有红红的，像小花瓣一样的东西，真奇怪。

在美国很多人的院子里，种着各种各样的水果树，比较多的有柠檬树和橙子树，还有桔子树，但这些树上结的果子和国内的不同，因为树上不但有熟透了的果子，同时有刚长出来的果子，甚至有的还在开花。也就是说，刚开的花和绿色的没成熟的果子以及黄色的已经成熟的果子同时生长在一棵树上!这是不是听起来很奇怪?这到底是怎么一回事呢?原来加州气候很特别，四季如春，很是适合果子生长，这边花开了长大了变黄了成熟了，这边又开始开花了，所以树上会同时结着各种颜色的果子呢。

Based on historical documents, modern survey and statistics, as well as the result of predecessor studies, the trend and main process of forest dynamics are recognized. The forest area and forest coverage rates for each province of China from 1700 to 1949 are es- timated backward by every 50 years. Linking the result with modern National Forest Inventory data, the spatial-temporal dynamics of Chinese forest in recent 300 years (AD 1700–1998) is quantitatively analyzed. The study shows that in recent 300 years, the forest area in current territory of China has declined by 0.95×108 hm2 (or 9.2% of the coverage rate) in total, with a trend of decrease and recovery. Before the 1960s, there was a trend of accelerated de- scending. The forest area was reduced by 1.66×108 hm2 (or 17% of the coverage rate) in 260 years. While after the 1960s, there has been a rapid increase. The forest area increased by 0.7×108 hm2 (or 8% of the coverage rate) in 40 years. The study also shows that there is a significant spatial difference in the dynamics of forest. The amplitudes of increasing and de- creasing in western China are both smaller than the ones in eastern China. During the rapid declining period from 1700 to 1949, the most serious decrease appeared in the Northeast, the Southwest and the Southeast, where the coverage rate in most provinces dropped over 20%. In Heilongjiang Province, the coverage rate dropped by 50%. In Jilin Province, it dropped by 36%. In Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality, it dropped by 42%. In Yunnan Prov- ince, it dropped by 35%. During the recovery period 1949–1998, the western provinces, mu- nicipality and autonomous regions, including Ningxia, Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Si- chuan–Chongqing, Yunnan, Tibet, Xinjiang and Qinghai, etc, the increase rates are all below 5%, while the eastern provinces, municipality and autonomous regions (except Heilongjiang, Hubei, Jiangsu–Shanghai) have achieved an increase over 5%, among which the Guang- dong–Hainan, Guangxi, Anhui, Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Zhejiang, and Fu- jian have an increase over 10%.

Old People in America

In the old days,American families were bigger. People had more children,and grandparents and great-grandparents lived with their families. But now, families are smaller, and many old people

live alone. At the same time, Americans are living longer and longer. The number of old people is always growing.

Some old people like to stay in their old homes. They do not want to move from their old homes. They do not want to move from their hometown. They are near their .friends and family. But some do not have a lot of friends. They want to meet new people. They want to live in a quiet place with other people of their age.

A large number of old people are moving to the South. It is warm there. You do not have to walk through the snow in winter,or pay a lot of money for heating.

A large number of old people are moving to the South only for old people. One of these is Sun City, near Phoenix, Arizona. All the families in Sun City must have one person over the age of 50 ,and children under 18 years old cant live there.

美国的老人

以前美国都是大家庭，Old People in America(美国的老人)，四六级写作《Old People in America(美国的老人)》。人们孩子很多，祖父母和曾祖父母都和家人在一起生活。但现在，家庭越来越小，许多老人独自生活。与此同时，美国人越活越长。老年人的数目总在不断增长。

有些老人喜欢呆在他们原来的房子里。他们不愿意从旧房子里搬出来。他们不想离开家乡。他们想住在朋友和家人附近。但是有些老人朋友不多，他们想结交新人，他们想和其他同龄的老人共同居住在一个僻静的地方。

很多老人正在迁往南部，那里天气暖和。冬天的时候不需要在雪中走路，也不需要交大笔取暖费。

很多老人正在迁往只允许老人居住的南部城市。其中之一就是亚利桑那州菲尼克斯附近的太阳城。太阳城居住的所有家庭都必须有一个成员在50岁以上，18岁以下的孩子能住在那里。

下面是小编整理的2016年美国总统大选特朗普演讲稿(英文版+视频)，欢迎阅读。

Thank you. Thank you very much, everyone. Sorry to keep you waiting. Complicated business, complicated. Thank you very much.

Ive just received a call from secretary Clinton. She congratulated us. It’s about us. On our victory, and I congratulated her and her family on a very, very hard-fought campaign.

I mean she fought very hard. Hillary has worked very long and very hard over a long period of time, and we owe her a major debt of gratitude for her service to our country.

I mean that very sincerely. Now it is timefor America to bind the wounds of division, have to get together, to all Republicans and Democrats and independents across this nation I say it is time for us to come together as one united people.

It is time. I pledge to every citizen of our land that I will be president for all of Americans, and this is so important to me. For those who have chosen not to support me in the past, of which there were a few people, Im reaching out to you for your guidance and your help so that we can work together and unify our great country. As Ive said from the beginning, ours was not a campaign but rather an incredible and great movement, made up of millions of hard-working men and women who love their country and want a better, brighter future for themselves and for theirfamily.

It is a movement comprised of Americans from all races, religions, backgrounds and beliefs, who want and expect our government to serve the people, and serve the people it will.

Working together we will begin the urgent task of rebuilding our nation and renewing the American dream. Ive spent my entire life in business, looking at the untapped potential in projects and in people all over the world.

That is now what I want to do for ourcountry. Tremendous potential. Ive gotten to know our country so well. Tremendous potential. It is going to be a beautiful thing. Every single American will have the opportunity to realize his or her fullest potential. The forgotten men and women of our country will be forgotten no longer.

We are going to fix our inner cities and rebuild our highways, bridges, tunnels, airports, schools, hospitals. Were going to rebuild our infrastructure, which will become, by the way, second to none, and we will put millions of our people to work as we rebuild it. We will also finally take care of our great veterans who have been so loyal, and Ivegotten to know so many over this 18-month journey.

The time Ive spent with them during this campaign has been among my greatest honors.

Our veterans are incredible people. We willembark upon a project of national growth and renewal. I will harness the creative talents of our people and we will call upon the best and brightest to leverage their tremendous talent for the benefit of all. It is going to happen. We have a great economic plan. We will double our growth and have the strongest economy anywhere in the world. At the same time we will get along with all other nations, willing to get along with us. We will be. We will have great relationships. We expect to have great, great relationships. No dream is too big, no challenge is too great. Nothing we want for our future is beyond our reach.

America will no longer settle for anything less than the best. We must reclaim our countrys destiny and dream big and bold and daring. We have to do that. Were going to dream of things for our country, and beautiful things and successful things once again.

I want to tell the world community that while we will always put Americas interests first, we will deal fairly witheveryone, with everyone.

All people and all other nations. We will seek common ground, not hostility, partnership, not conflict. And now I would like to take this moment to thank some of the people who really helped me with this, what they are calling tonight a very, very historic victory.

First I want to thank my parents, who I know are looking down on me right now. Great people. Ive learned so much from them. They were wonderful in every regard. They are truly great parents. I also want to thank my sisters, Marianne and Elizabeth who are here with us tonight. Where are they? Theyre here someplace. Theyre very shy actually.

And my brother Robert, my great friend.Where is Robert? Where is Robert?

My brother Robert, and they should be on this stage but thats okay. Theyre great.

And also my late brother Fred, great guy. Fantastic guy. Fantastic family. I was very lucky.

Great brothers, sisters, great, unbelievable parents. To Melania and Don and Ivanka and Eric and Tiffany and Barron, I love you and I thank you, and especially for putting up with all ofthose hours. This was tough.

This was tough. This political stuff is nasty and it is tough. So I want to thank my family very much. Really fantastic. Thank you all. Thank you all. Lara, unbelievable job. Unbelievable. Vanessa, thank you. Thank you very much. What a great group.

Youve all given me such incredible support, and I will tell you that we have a large group of people. You know, they kept saying we have a small staff. Not so small. Look at all of the people that we have. Look at all of these people.

And Kellyanne and Chris and Rudy and Steve and David. We have got tremendously talented people up here, and I want to tell you its been very, very special.

I want to give a very special thanks to our former mayor, Rudy Giuliani. Hes unbelievable. Unbelievable. He traveled with us and he went through meetings, and Rudy never changes. Where is Rudy. Whereis he?

[Chanting "Rudy"]

Gov. Chris Christie, folks, wasunbelievable. Thank you, Chris. The first man, first senator, first major,major politician — let me tell you, he is highly respected in Washington because he is as smart as you get, senator Jeff sessions. Where is Jeff? Agreat man. Another great man, very tough competitor. He was not easy. He was not easy. Who is that? Is that the mayor that showed up? Is that Rudy?

Up here. Really a friend to me, but Illtell you, I got to know him as a competitor because he was one of the folks that was negotiating to go against those Democrats, Dr. Ben Carson. Wheresbeen? Where is Ben? By the way, Mike Huckabee is here someplace, and he is fantastic. Mike and his familiar bring Sarah, thank you very much. Gen. Mike Flynn. Where is Mike? And Gen. Kellogg. We have over 200 generals and admirals that have endorsed our campaign and there are special people. We have 22 congressional medal of honor people. A very special person who, believe me, Iread reports that I wasnt getting along with him. I never had a bad second with him. Hes an unbelievable star. He is -- thats right, how did you possibly guess? Let me tell you about Reince. Ive said Reince. I know it. I know it. Look at all of those people over there. I know it, Reince is a superstar. I said, they cant call you a superstar, Reince, unless we win it. Like secretariat. He would not have that bust at the track at Belmont.

Reince is really a star and he is the hardest working guy and in a certain way I did this. Reince, come up here. Get over here, Reince.

Boy, oh, boy, oh, boy. Its about time you did this right. My god. Nah, come here. Say something.

[Reince Priebus: Ladies and gentlemen, the next president of the united States, Donald Trump! Thank you. Its been anhonor. God bless. Thank God.]

Amazing guy. Our partnership with the RNC was so important to the success and what weve done, so I also have to say,Ive gotten to know some incredible people.

The Secret Service people. Theyre tough and theyre smart and theyre sharp and I dont want to mess around with them, I can tell you. And when I want to go and wave to a big group of people and they rip me down and put me back down in the seat, but they are fantastic people so I want to thank the Secret Service.

And law enforcement in New York City, theyre here tonight. These are spectacular people, sometimes underappreciated unfortunately, we appreciate them. So its been what they call an historic event, but to be really historic, we have to do a great job and I promise you that I will not let you down. We will do a great job. We will do a great job. I look very much forward to being your president and hopefully at the end of two years or three years or four years or maybe even eight years you will say so many of you worked so hard for us, you will say that — you will say that—that was something that you were — really were— very proud to do and I can — thank you very much—and I can only say that while the campaign is over, our work on this movement is now really just beginning. Were going to get to work immediately for the American people and were going to be doing a job that hopefully you will be so proud of your president. You will be so proud. Again, its my honor.

Its an amazing evening. Its been an amazing two-year period and I love this country. Thank you.

Thank you very much. Thank you to Mike Pence.

趁着学校放寒假的时候，我有幸加入了学校的美国游学团当中。1月12日，我们怀着无比激动的心情登上了即将飞往美国的飞机。一上飞机我心想：美国是世界上最发达的国家，到了那里，道路一定是干干净净，看不见垃圾的影子，高楼林立……一想到这里，我的心情又激动起来。恨不得现在就到美国。

经过了10个小时漫长的时间，我们终于到了向往已久的目的地——美国。刚一下飞机，我们便呼吸到新鲜的空气，看看见了道路上一片小纸削也没有。可是美国的样子却和我们想象的不一样。原以为美国高楼林立，现实却到处是平房；原以为美国的道路是崭新崭新的，现实却是又破又旧……虽然美国不像是那样荣华富贵，但是到处都充满人们的欢声笑语。

之后的几天，我们开始了游玩的过程。我们去了动物园，知道了动物与人之间的和谐；我们去了好莱坞，知道了美国电影道具的齐全；我们去坐了过山车，感到了无限的惊险与刺激；我们又去了迪士尼，知道了人与人之间心灵的美好；我们又去看了画展，看到了一幅幅栩栩如生的名画，知道了美国真是地大物博啊！

这一次的美国之旅是我终身难忘，这次既让我明白了美国的高度文明，又让我知道了美国人的懂礼貌、平易近人、慷慨大方。离开美国时，我只好依依不舍得离开，希望下次还能再来这美丽的城市。

二十年，世事变迁，谁也无法料到你我变化。下面是美国经典短篇小说《二十年后》，欢迎阅读。

文：美国小说家欧·亨利（O. Henry，1862年9月11日－1910年6月5日）

纽约的一条大街上，一位值勤的警察正沿街走着。一阵冷飕飕的风向他迎面吹来。已近夜间10点，街上的行人寥寥无几了。

在一家小店铺的门口，昏暗的灯光下站着一个男子。他的嘴里叼着一支没有点燃的雪茄烟。警察放慢了脚步，认真地看了他一眼，然后，向那个男子走了过去。

“这儿没有出什么事，警官先生。”看见警察向自己走来，那个男子很快地说，“我只是在这儿等一位朋友罢了。这是二十年前定下的一个约会。你听了觉得稀奇，是吗？好吧，如果有兴致听的话，我来给你讲讲。大约二十年前，这儿，这个店铺现在所占的地方，原来是一家餐馆……”

“那餐馆5年前就被拆除了。”警察接上去说。

男子划了根火柴，点燃了叼在嘴上的雪茄。借着火柴的亮光，警察发现这个男子脸色苍白，右眼角附近有一块小小的白色的伤疤。

“二十年前的今天晚上，”男子继续说，“我和吉米·维尔斯在这儿的餐馆共进晚餐。哦，吉米是我最要好的朋友。我们俩都是在纽约这个城市里长大的。从孩提时候起，我们就亲密无间，情同手足。当时，我正准备第二天早上就动身到西部去谋生。那天夜晚临分手的时候，我们俩约定：二十年后的同一日期、同一时间，我们俩将来到这里再次相会。”

“这听起来倒挺有意思的。”警察说，“你们分手以后，你就没有收到过你那位朋友的信吗？”

“哦，收到过他的信。有一段时间我们曾相互通信。”那男子 说，“可是一两年之后，我们就失去了联系。你知道，西部是个很大的地方。而我呢，又总是不断地东奔西跑。可我相信，吉米只要还活着，就一定会来这儿和我相会的。他是我最信得过的朋友啦。”

说完，男子从口袋里掏出一块小巧玲球的金表。表上的宝石在黑暗中闪闪发光。“九点五十七分了。”

他说，“我们上一次是十点整在这儿的餐馆分手的。”

“你在西部混得不错吧？”警察问道。

“当然罗！吉米的光景要是能赶上我的一半就好了。啊，实在不容易啊！这些年来，我一直不得不东奔西跑……”

又是一阵冷赠飕的风穿街而过。接着，一片沉寂。他们俩谁也没有说话。过了一会儿，警察准备离开这里。

“我得走了，”他对那个男子说，“我希望你的朋友很快就会到来。假如他不准时赶来，你会离开这儿吗？”

“不会的。我起码要再等他半个小时。如果吉米他还活在人间，他到时候一定会来到这儿的。就说这些吧，再见，警官先生。”

“再见，先生。”警察一边说着，一边沿街走去，街上已经没有行人了，空荡荡的。

男子又在这店铺的门前等了大约二十分钟的光景，这时候，一 个身材高大的人急匆匆地径直走来。他穿着一件黑色的大衣，衣领向上翻着，盖住了耳朵。

“你是鲍勃吗？”来人问道。

“你是吉米·维尔斯？”站在门口的男子大声地说，显然，他很激动。

来人握住了男子的双手。“不错，你是鲍勃。我早就确信我会在这儿见到你的。啧，啧，啧！二十年是个不短的时间啊！你看，鲍勃！原来的那个饭馆已经不在啦！要是它没有被拆除，我们再一块儿在这里面共进晚餐该多好啊！鲍勃，你在西部的情况怎么样？”

“幄，我已经设法获得了我所需要的一切东西。你的变化不小啊，吉米。我原来根本没有想到你会长这么高的个子。”

“哦，你走了以后，我是长高了一点儿。”

“吉米，你在纽约混得不错吧？”

“一般，一般。我在市政府的一个部门里上班，坐办公室。来，鲍勃，咱们去转转，找个地方好好叙叙往事。”

这条街的街角处有一家大商店。尽管时间已经不早了，商店里的灯还在亮着。来到亮处以后，这两个人都不约而同地转过身来看了看对方的脸。

突然间，那个从西部来的男子停住了脚步。

“你不是吉米·维尔斯。”他说，“二十年的时间虽然不短，但它不足以使一个人变得容貌全非。”从他说话的声调中可以听出，他在怀疑对方。

“然而，二十年的时间却有可能使一个好人变成坏人。”高个子 说，“你被捕了，鲍勃。芝加哥的警方猜到你会到这个城市来的，于是他们通知我们说，他们想跟你‘聊聊’。好吧，在我们还没有去警察局之前，先给你看一张条子，是你的朋友写给你的。”

鲍勃接过便条。读着读着，他微微地颤抖起来。便条上写着：

鲍勃：刚才我准时赶到了我们的约会地点。当你划着火柴点烟时，我发现你正是那个芝加哥警方所通缉的人。不知怎么的，我不忍自己亲自逮捕你，只得找了个便衣警察来做这件事。

二十年，世事变迁，不足以让一个人面目全非，却足以让一个人从好人变为坏人。昔日的好伙伴杰米从一个迟顿的老实人变成个干练的巡警，而鲍勃则从一个不甘平凡的聪明人变成个不法之徒。命运作弄了这一对昔日的好伙伴，二十年后他们成为势不两立的警察与匪徒。然而两人对友情的忠诚及对承诺的坚持却同样让人动容。

汽车是一个在美国生活的重要组成部分。这款车使美国一个轮子上的国家。它有助于使美国今日的成就。

有三个原因使汽车成为在美国流行的主要原因。所有国家首先是一个巨大之一，美国人喜欢在其间来回走动。汽车提供了最舒适和最便宜的交通方式。

第二个原因是汽车普及的是，美国从来就没有真正开发出高效，廉价的公共交通形式的事实。长途火车从未像在美国，因为他们在世界其他地方一样。现在有一个良好的航空服务系统提供的飞机。但是它太昂贵，不能频繁使用。

第三个原因是最重要的，虽然。美国人的独立精神，是真正使汽车受欢迎。美国人不喜欢等公共汽车，火车甚至飞机。他们不喜欢必须遵循精确的时间表自由车给他们是美国人最希望拥有的。

对天然气供应减少，造成了美国人的大问题。但答案不会是一个大的公共交通系统。真正的解决办法必须是一个车，一个不使用这么多的新型气体。

总统阁下：

你好！我是一直被您猎杀的无辜的狼。

您一心想这保护鹿，觉得我们吃鹿是残忍的，觉得鹿被我们吃就是无辜的，那您为什么不想想，鹿吃草草也是无辜的，您应该客观地看待这个事情，不应该只看表面，我们虽然残忍，但是我们却保护着森林不会被鹿吃掉，在森林看来，我们狼就是善良可爱的，鹿就是残忍的，您现在这就是在好心做坏事。

在我们生物之间都有一个循环的生物系统和食物链，比如我们狼吃鹿，鹿就在吃森林破坏森林，而我们却在保护森林，您猎杀了我们狼，就等于破坏了生物之间循环的系统。

希望您吸取今天的教训，不要再这样从表面来判断事物，在做事情之前不能果断的下结论，要在思考之后才能下结论。

祝您

工作顺利治国安心

一只无辜的狼

我一直对于国外教育非常好奇，想要知道他们是怎样上课的。这个寒假，我们学校组织了到美国游学，让我们了解下中美文化的差异。

我们前往游学的学校是美国新泽西中心小学。为了迎接我们这些在美国孩子眼中的"外国人"，新泽西小学的师生用心地在每间教室的每张桌子上都摆放了他们的国旗和代表中国形象的中国龙，这让我们深感亲切。

最让我们感觉新鲜的是，美国小学教室里的课桌不是成行排列的，而是围起来的，所有的学生都转圈而坐，这样是不是能够让老师和同学们能更好地沟通交流呢？

我的搭档是一位金色短发的漂亮姑娘，我与她交换了礼物。我送给她的是一个会"咕呱咕呱"叫的泥塑小老虎，很有中同特色。看着我的搭档拿着我送的礼物爱不释手，我的心里美极了。美国小朋友送我们的礼物是统一的一只蓝色的大手，希望我们能成为很好的朋友。

美国学校最大的特点就是，没有课间十分钟，也没有课间操，每节课之间是不休息的。一节课上完之后，下节课的老师就接着来上课。我跟着他们一起上了美术课、体育课、数学课、语文课，还有英语课。

什么？美国学校也会上英语课？那是当然了，虽然老师说话我听不太懂，但到了这节课的时候，我感觉他们跟我们上英语课一样，也是在课堂上听录音练听力，读课文练口语。

我最喜欢的是他们的体育、美术和音乐课。

"We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas"Have you heard that song? Yup! Its Christmas time! This Christmas, I stayed with my "host family"1. It was an amazing experience to see how a typical American family would celebrate the biggest western festival of the year.

Christmas, like our Spring Festival, has a meaning in itself. Christmas Day, which is on December 25, is the birthday of Jesus Christ--the son of God. Thats why it is called Christmas. On that day, Christians would get together with their families to celebrate the birthday of Jesus. But nowadays, the religious meaning of Christmas has become less emphasized. To many families, it is just a time of family reunion and the ever-exciting present-giving.

Our school had been on winter vacation since December 11. I stayed at my friend, Stephen Stapczynskis house--his family was my "host family". Although Christmas was still more than ten days ahead, the festive spirit had already been teeming everywhere. The Christmas tree had already been set up, and on every windowsill, there were Christmas lights. On the first day I arrived at their house, Stephen and I helped Mrs. Stapczynski put decorations on the Christmas tree. The tree looked so nice with all the lights on and the beautiful ornaments dangling from its branches.

As Christmas came closer, the whole neighborhood had made preparations too. Some people would hold parties at their houses, inviting all their neighbors to come. So every night, if you went out, you would see a long line of cars parked in front of some house--a partys on!

Whats more, the Christmas decorations that some people put on their windows and in gardens were just amazing. On one night, we went out in our car for a "tour of lights". There was one street that was so famous for its lights that it got its way into the local paper. We had a hard time finding the well-hidden street, but it turned out to be worth the effort. Lights shone brightly in front of nearly every house, on trees, bushes, doors, windowseverywhere, taking different shapes, making it seem almost like daytime. Huge inflatable figures in the front gardens were waving to us: there were Santa Clauses2, of course, chuckling merrily away; and there were also other Christmas figures, like Rudolph3--the red-nosed reindeer--with his red nose gleaming ever so brightly; even Bart Simpson--a character in the famous comedy The Simpsons--had joined the jolly party, wearing a Santas hat. The street set off a lot of "ooh"s and "aah"s inside the car.4 When we left, there was a line of cars in the street, all there to see the lights.

Christmas is the time for exchanging presents. Stephen and Niko had been thinking about their Christmas lists (a list of things they wish "Santa"to give them for Christmas) for a long time. I didnt want to ask for anything, but the Stapczynskis were so kind to "force"me make one list as well (Mr. Stapczynski told me if I didnt make one he would chop off my legs). So I wrote down a couple of things that I would like to have, and gave the list to them--sorry, my mistake--to Santa.

Finally, Christmas Eve came. There was a special Christmas service at the church at 6 p.m. It was certainly a very interesting experience for me. The priest started the service reading and sang out extractions from a holy book--The Divine Liturgy. For several times, we would stand up and pray.

Sometimes, the church choir would start singing. The atmosphere was very quiet and holy. Then there was a ceremony called "The Receiving Communion". People waited in line to "receive"a spoonful of food from the priest. It was a very special Christmas tradition. The food was made from bread and wine. The bread represents the body of Jesus, and the wine represents his blood. After this ceremony, the priest had a speech. He reminded us not to forget the true meaning of Christmas, and let Jesus really live inside us--that is, to love the people around us wholeheartedly. I think that no matter if you are a Christian or not, this principle should be part of our lives. After the priest finished his speech, the part that I enjoyed most came: Christmas carols5. Christmas carols are songs that people sing at Christmas, such as "Jingle Bells", "We Wish You a Merry Christmas", "Silent Night"and so on. Some were very merry, others sounded quite holy, but all of them were beautiful. I closed my eyes, and let all the peacefulness and happiness that were in the songs flow through me. What a feeling it was!

We went to sleep earlier that day for we had to get up early on Christmas Day to open our presents. Sure enough, when I was still half-way during a sweet dream, Stephen burst into my room and told me to get up and open presents. There were a huge pile of presents under the Christmas tree, and there was such a mysterious mist shrouding them that made me eager to see what they all were. So one by one, we went through all the presents. Mr. and Mrs. Stapczynski had bought me everything I had written on my Christmas list--and a lot more! I got music CDs, film DVDs, clothes, books I was very happy, and I didnt know how to express my appreciation for what they had done for me.

Stephen and Niko had gotten a lot of presents too, and they had already been trying out their new games!

In the afternoon, we went to Mrs. Stapczynskis brother, Uncle Stans house. They had prepared a marvelous meal for us. A lot of their friends and relatives also came. I saw Stephen and Nikos grandparents, Yiayia and Papou (words of grandma and grandpa in Greek--Mrs. Stapczynskis parents came from Greece, so they like the boys using Greek words to call them). They were very kind to me, and treated me just like one of their family members. We had a very luxurious meal, consisting of turkey, beef, pork, and all sorts of other food.

After the meal, when all the stomachs were full and everyone was feeling drowsy6 from all the food, we just sat around the table and chatted, just like what we Chinese people do at the Spring Festival. After all, Christmas, like the Spring Festival, is a time for us to get away from our busy lives, a time for family gathering, and a time to have some fun.

Last year, I went to Guilin for travel, it was a great trip for me. I not only had a look at the beautiful scenery, but also made friends. I knew a lovely girl from America, we met each other on the train. As we were almost at the same age, we communicated a lot. We shared our opinion about the culture and learned a lot. When our train reached the destination, we needed to separate, we promised to keep in touch by the Internet. Now a year has passed, we make our promise and keep in touch all the time. I have improved my English and she is so interested in China. It seems that we can never finish our topic, because we always have so much to share with each other. I am so lucky to make a good friend.

去年,我去了桂林旅游,对我来说这是一次完美的旅行。我不仅看了美丽的风景,也交到了朋友。我认识了一个可爱的来自美国的女孩,我们在火车上相遇。由于我们几乎在同一个年龄,我们交流了很多。我们分享各自的文化,学到了很多。当火车到达目的地时,我们要分开了,我们承诺通过网络保持联系。现在一年过去了,我们旅行了承诺,保持着联系。我提高了我的英语,她对中国也感兴趣。似乎我们总有说不完的话题,因为我们总是有那么多东西要相互分享。我很幸运交到了一个好朋友。

[一位来自美国的朋友英语作文

7月16日，经过15个小时的飞行(包括东京转机)，我们乘坐的全日空航班平稳地降落在美国洛杉矶国际机场。我们顺利地办理了入关手续和提取行李，便乘车前往下榻的酒店。简单地整理后，我们就开始了我向往已久的美国之行。

我们从酒店出发，乘坐地铁前往我们的第一站 -- 好莱坞。这里是世界著名的电影城。这里坐落着著名的中国剧院，贝弗利山庄。听说许多著名的影星都住在这里。在好莱坞的星光大道上，我看见好多大明星留下的手印和脚印。我很好奇地比划了一个手印，居然和我的手一样大小哦。在中国剧院的大厅里，有一组非常奇特的 台阶，它不仅看起来像钢琴的黑白琴键，当我踩上去的时候，每个台阶都会发出美妙的声音。我们来回奔跑，就好像弹琴一样，这是我见过最雄伟的“钢琴”。

好莱坞还有许多拍摄电影的场地，有拍摄《音乐之声》的，有《绿野仙踪》的，还有《加勒比海盗》的。看到这些场景，我仿佛又回到了电影里，非常有意思。

最后我们在蜡像馆门口和喜欢的人物拍照留念。由于天气炎热，我们匆匆地参观了好莱坞其他景点就早早地会酒店休息了，因为明天我们就要去我最喜欢的迪斯尼乐园了。美国的第一天在好莱坞结束了。

尊敬的总统阁下：

您好，我知道您非常的忙，所以趁今天这个时间把我想说的事情说出来！

我是一只来自凯巴伯森林的一只幸存的鹿，听说您下令把森林里的狼都杀了我很是高兴。我的阿姨梅花鹿和叔叔尽情的繁殖过着幸福的生活，我更是和爸爸妈妈过着快乐、安逸的生活。这天我们森林里的草跟花都被吃完了就不知道吃什么了，由于太饿了就开始啃树皮了，我们把树皮啃得一干二净，森林里没有吃的了。这时候大家都开始生病包括我的妈妈，尽管爸爸、我努力的去救我妈妈但是妈妈还是去世了我非常的伤心。我又眼睁睁地看见其他叔叔、阿姨、小孩子一个一个的倒下，我想就他们但是又无能为力！

我开始分析原因了，狼群们在的时候我们都可以每天跑跑步，锻炼身体，可是狼走了我们也就每天不跑步了。狼群在的时候我们每天都会有生病的叔叔阿姨或者小孩被吃掉，我们虽然很伤心但是也没有办法。我对比了一下发现狼走后我们不锻炼了，只吃不锻炼就造成了疾病。以前狼会吃掉生病的叔叔阿姨保持我们的健康，但是现在没有吃的了，生病的鹿也有很多造成互相传染，我和爸爸是幸存的，没有被传染。

我发现了，狼虽然是邪恶的但是大自然一直安排他们来维护我们的平衡，不让我们大量繁殖。可是狼都被总统您杀死了，所以造成了生态危机，我们因为没吃的有的病死，有的饿死造成我们数量又大量减少。

所以我恳求总统您把狼请回来吧，让他们继续帮助我们维护平衡，不要让我看着它们一个一个的倒下可以吗，谢谢您总统阁下！

给美国总统的一封信

作者：南国琳

给美国总统的一封信

敬爱的总统先生：

您好！您最近还忙碌吗？我是一只凯巴伯中被你保护的其中一只鹿。

总统先生，谢谢您的好意，让我们受到保护，让我们每天吃得饱，每天都舒舒服服的，但是，现在我的兄弟姐妹们还有爸爸妈妈，都被活活得饿死，和得疾病病死。

我们没有了天敌，都大量的吃花草树木，我们把整个凯巴伯森林都给吃光了，我们每天都懒洋洋地，以前每天早晨都跑步，为了就是防止被狼吃掉，现在狼没了，我们的天敌也就没了，没了天敌后我们都不跑步，狼突然就没了，我们还是很高兴的，可是后来，树木被我们吃光后，我们都变的不团结了，之后，疾病来了，这都是我们不锻炼的结果。

我们现在都危在旦夕中，我还都不知道是怎么一回事，有一天，我们的领队队长发现后告诉了我们，说：“我们以前又狼的时候，都还一个个的身强体壮的，现在都饿死的饿死，病死的病死，总统下令把狼都捕杀掉的那时刻起，就已经破坏了大自然的规律，所以我们就会被饿死或病死。”

总统先生，您破坏了大自然的食物链，我的兄弟姐妹们还有爸爸妈妈都饿死和病死了，我没有了家人，是您害了我的家人，您才是最初的罪魁祸首，狼根本就不是，美国总统，我求求您了，求求您把狼换给我们吧！您如果真的想保护我们，就把狼请过来吧！

总统，我想请您不要再管大自然中的事情了，因为您要是管理了大自然的事情的话，您就伤害了许多条动物的性命。

一只危在旦夕的羊

201X年10月11日星期二

这个暑假，我参加了学校的“美国夏令营”7月14日下午4点多，带队老师班老师和11个同学一起登上了飞往洛杉矶的飞机，一会儿，飞机就起飞了，经过10多个小时的飞机，我们终于到了。

走出机场，我们随着老师上了车来到了一所学校。大家被分到了不同的家庭。我和同班同学吴贵业一起住。之后我们到了一家麦当劳和主人的儿子见面了，我们很快成了朋友，一个叫Raymond，11岁，一个叫samand，6岁。在他们家我们住了两个星期，时间过得可真快，两个星期一眨眼就过去了我和吴贵业学到了许多东西，感受到美国人的生活习性，不久我们很快就要离开他了，我非常舍不得他们，但是没办法，我们只能合影留念了。之后，我们还到了洛杉矶的迪士尼和好莱坞

离开洛杉矶，我们便开始到美国的其他城市游览，我们先到了波士顿看了下哈佛大学和西点军校，那里非常大，不过还是不够之后要去的斯坦福大学大。第二天，我们到了纽约，途中到了费城，看到了自由钟。在纽约我们到了自由女神，第五大道，时代广场。几天后，我们到了华盛顿，参观了白宫，国会山庄，林肯纪念馆。之后，我们到了最后一站——旧金山，在那里，我们游览了金门大桥，监狱岛和斯坦福大学。

经过这次的美国之旅，我决定，以后我要再来美国学习。

美国新艾滋病美国研发艾滋病预防药物

美国《科学》杂志发布研究报告显示，科学家研发出一种新型注射药物，试验证明在猴子身上可以有效预防艾滋病毒。[www.t262.com)

据报道，美国疾病预防与控制中心研究人员以12只猴子为试验对象，其中6只猴子每隔四周被注射这种新型药物，另外6只猴子被注入安慰剂。在这之后的11周里，所有猴子每周有2次暴露于会感染艾滋病毒的环境中。结果发现，被注射了药物的猴子，体内完全没有艾滋病毒，而另外6只没有注射药物的猴子，均感染了艾滋病病毒。研究人员称，这意味着这款长效药物，在猴子试验阶段，能100%起到抵御艾滋病病毒的作用。

研究人员称，如果在人体试验中有同样效果，这款药物有望成为预防艾滋病的另一重要途径。未来人们只要每隔1到3个月打上一针，或许就能有效避免艾滋病毒的感染。科学家们将在今后几个月里与葛兰素史克公司在美国展开临床试验，预计明年可获得有关这款药物的更多安全性数据。

世卫组织的数据显示，艾滋病作为一项全球公共卫生问题，至今已造成3600多万人死亡，在2012年，约有3530万人携带艾滋病毒。

To Live in an American Family

提纲

1. 留美学生与当地家庭生活在一起既有优点也有不足。

2. 不足之处。

3. 与当地家庭生活在一起的优点远超过其不足。

for the student who wants to improve his english quickly and learn about american customs firsthand, there is often an opportunity to live with an american family. there may be some disadvantages in this arrangement; however, i believe there are far more advantages.

first of all, the disadvantages may include lack of privacy and little opportunity to be independent. they will lose the chance of living on their own. another drawback to living in an american home involves the possibility that the family may treat the student like a child. for eample, the parents may want to decide who his friends should be and where he should go during his leisure time.

even though there may be some disadvantages in living with an american family, the advantage far overweighs them. by taking part in a home-stay program, the student has an ecellent opportunity to learn about american customs. also, he will learn about many other aspects about american way of life, such as the way schools are run in the u nited states. and the family will no doubt make cerlain that he becomes acquainted with this new way of life, and soon he will feel at home.

在风俗习惯上，美国和加拿大基本一致，食俗有：吃烤火鸡、南瓜饼、红莓苔子果酱、甜山芋、玉蜀黍;活动有：玩蔓越桔竞赛、玉米游戏、南瓜赛跑;举行化装游行、戏剧表演或体育比赛等集体活动，并有相应的假期2天，在远方的人们都会回家与亲人团聚。现在还形成了豁免火鸡、黑色星期五购物等习惯。

美国和加拿大的感恩节之间有许多相似性，譬如装满花果谷物象征丰饶的山羊角(cornucopia)和南瓜饼(pumpkin pie)。加拿大感恩大餐的餐桌上的食物通常也与地域和时间的变化而不同，有些是鹿肉和水鸟，有些是野鸭野鹅，但目前主要是火鸡和火腿。

人类历史上最伟大的帝国

如果帝国在现代汉语里是一个略带贬抑的名词的话，那么把它用在美国的头上，我觉得有必要加以一定的修饰，那就是：人类历史上最伟大的帝国。可惜的是，在央视的《大国崛起》系列片里，由于当局意识形态的局限性，美国篇和苏联篇一样都令人失望。用西人的谚语说就是：BEATAROUNDTHEBUSH，不得要领。

《大国崛起美国篇》中有两个重点：其一，独立战争、南北战争。其二，危局新政。

现在当朝者在讨论到中国的台湾问题时，常会援引美国南北战争为例来阐述统一的正当性，所以央视的编导们当然也要不遗余力地浓墨重彩描绘一下该事件。不过，人们常常忘了美国南北战争双方的特征是以工业资产阶级民主派为代表的北方与农奴制庄园主为代表的南方之间的斗争。双方各自代表的阶层在历史大潮中此消彼长的特点才是最后成败的关键。回想当年美国脱离英国的独立战争，美国独立成功，而时隔百年在美国内部的南部独立战争却失败了。所以，并不是所有的统一战争或者独立战争都可以以民族统一国家统一的大帽子来代表战争的正义性与否，关键的问题还是双方政权各自代表的阶层和行政经济运作方式是否符合社会发展的要求。我们中国人都期盼中国统一大业的早日完成，然而统一的蓝图是如何描绘的呢?美国的独立战争和南北战争给了我们明确的启示。强大如英国者，不能阻挡美国的独立。强大如南方军者，也不能阻挡美国北方军的统一。独立与统一，谁是谁非?历史老人告诉我们：只有民主的，进步的，代表新经济发展方向的体制才有资格统一或者独立。独立或统一，是人民的选择，是历史的选择，而绝不是某些肉食者或民粹主义或民族主义式的呐喊所能决定的。大陆若不自强，最终将无法阻止台湾的独立。

讲到危局新政，那是指1929年发生的资本主义经济危机以及其后的罗斯福新政。央视的编导们口沫横飞地描述了当年美国人的悲惨生活：煤矿经常发生爆炸事故，工人超时加班现象严重，政府职能部门腐败贪污，自然环境为工业污染所破坏，食品搀假影响人民健康，社会贫富两极分化……。当那个被采访的美国问题研究专家讲到这些问题的时候，我发现了她脸上一丝不易察觉的笑容：是的，她羞愧了。在她讲这些问题的时候，我觉得她应该和我同样想到了：这些，80年前发生在美国的这些，不正是现在正在中国大地上发生着的事情么?只是，不能说，也说不得。那位教授只好在面对采访的时候，尴尬地露出一点羞愧的笑，然后继续向老美开炮。有趣的是，编导们的画外音出现了：苏联的计划经济一片繁荣，所以美国人也要学习苏联老大哥。弦外之音是：老祖宗之法，也曾经辉煌过!可惜，错了，又错了。美国总统罗斯福实行的新政以凯恩斯的理论为基础绝对不是苏联计划经济的那一套，美国的政府经济干预是在自由市场经济的基础上进行的，是遵循市场经济规律而绝非如计划经济那样凌驾于市场之上的模式。应该说，美国乃至整个西方社会出现的经济危机不过是当年全球经济科技高速发展之余，产能过剩导致的一次自我调整。防佛一个小儿在青春期迅速成长的阶段，如果运动过度而又营养补充跟不上的话，容易缺钙抽筋。罗斯福总统不过是在适当的时候给了社会一剂强心针和一点钙片。罗斯福总统的名言是“我们最大的恐惧是内心的恐惧本身”。我的理解是，体制本身的问题不大，是人的内心恐慌情绪导致了股市的大抛盘进而影响了整个经济形式。当然，罗斯福总统的“钙片”：加大政府公共建设财政投资以拉动经济的做法也确实起了巨大的作用。至于苏联则不然，它对资本主义经济危机的抵御能力在前文我曾表述过我的看法，就不再这里继续赘述了。

还有一个有趣的话题是关于“垄断”。美国篇里长时间讨论美国洛克非勒石油公司等托拉斯垄断问题，阐述的是资本主义自由竞争后期发展出来的垄断企业所带来的社会矛盾。其中，采访了钱颖一教授，他的观点一针见血：垄断的问题并不在于垄断的财富积累本身，而在于它影响了人们自由竞争的平等机会之权利。“自由竞争”“平等权利”这些字眼，有意无意地出现了!所谓的苏联式的国有大企业，大银行，大电信，大邮政，大交通系统，难道不正是一种国家式的大托拉斯么?这样的社会组织形式又给普通的消费者经营者们带来了什么?如果说，美国托拉斯影响的是平等竞争的机会，那么苏联式国有大企业影响的就不只是平等竞争的机会，而却是对私有财产的野蛮掠夺和消费者权益的漠视乃至服务质量和工作效率的下降。如果说罗斯福新政对于垄断托拉斯大企业开刀是美国式资本主义经济脓疮爆发的一次自我疗伤，那么所谓优秀的“苏联式社会主义经济”走上的国家垄断的道路又是怎样的一个奇怪的南辕北辙!人所不欲，则施于己?实在是有趣之极。

开国元勋，不留恋高位毅然挂冠离去的GEORGE、WASHINGTON，他属于美国!

农夫之子成为总统，自强不息并解放黑奴统一国家的ABOLAHAM、LINCOLN，他属于美国!

两次把人类从濒临灭亡的世界大战中解救出来，并在战后帮助无数国家建设民主经济的那个国家，就是美国!

在列强中把中国的庚子赔款退还中国兴办学校与医院的，肩并肩协助中国打败日本的主要国家，那还是美国!

就连我们现在日日上网拍砖所依赖的电脑，互联网等，又有哪些不是来自美国?在这样一片开放的，聚合全球各肤色人才的热土上，还有什么样的奇迹不能发生?美国，依然吸引着全球的目光，并代表着人类发展的最先驱。或许，人类永远没有最完美的制度，但在过去100年里，美国，是当之无愧的全世界最伟大的帝国。

What Is American Dream?

什么是美国梦?

What is the American Dream? Is it the same for all Americans? Is it a myth? Is it simply a search for a better life? How has the American Dream changed over time? Some see their dreams wither and die while others see their dreams fulfilled. Why? Everyone has dreams abut a personally fulfilled life... and what is your dream?

什么是美国梦?所有的美国人都是一样的吗?它是虚构的事吗?它是为了追求更好的生活吗?美国梦随着时间是如何改变的?有些人的梦想破灭了而有些人却实现了梦想。是什么原因呢?每个人都有自己想要实现的梦想，你的梦想是什么呢?

The term American Dream was first used by James Adams in his book The Epic of America which was written in 1931. He states: The American Dream is that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement. It is a difficult dream for the European upper classes to interpret adequately, and too many of us ourselves have grown tired and mistrustful of it. It is not a dream of cars and high wages merely, but a dream of social order in which each man and each woman shall be able to get to the fullest stature of which they are capable, and be recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position."

美国梦这个词最早出现在詹姆斯·亚当斯1931年写的《美国史诗》这本书中。他写道：美国梦是指渴望生活在能够让人们生活丰裕富足的热土上，每个人都有机会实现自己的价值。它是一个欧洲上流社会很难理解和体会的梦想，并且我们中的相当多人对此持怀疑和不信任的态度。这个梦想不仅仅是拥有汽车和高工资，而且还应当包括这样一种社会秩序，在这种秩序下，男人和女人不论他们出身如何，社会地位如何，都能最大程度地实现自己的潜能并为他人所认可和接受”。

In the united States Declaration of Independence, our founding fathers state: "... all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness." Might this view be considered the foundation of the American Dream?

在美国的《独立宣言》中，我们的创始人指出：“……所有的人人生而平等，创物主赋予他们若干不可剥夺的权利，这其中包括生命权，自由权和追求幸福的权利。”这一说法也许可能被视为美国梦的基础?

Were homesteaders who left the big cities of the east to find happiness and their piece of land in the unknown wilderness of the west pursuing these Rights? Were the immigrants who came to the United States looking for their bit of life, liberty, happiness and their Dream? And what did the desire of the veteran of World War II—to settle down, to have a home, a car and a family—tell us about this Dream? Is the American Dream attainable by all Americans? Would Martin Luther King feel his Dream was attained? Did Malcolm X realize his Dream?

农场主为了寻找幸福离开了东部的大城市，抛弃了他们在西部未知荒野上的土地，他们是在实现自己权利吗?移民来到美国，是为了自己想要的生活，追求自由、幸福和梦想吗?二战老兵的愿望又是什么呢，安定下来，有居住的房子，汽车然后组建家庭——告诉我们这就是梦想?所有美国人都能实现美国梦吗?马丁·路德金会认为自己能够梦想成真吗?马尔科姆·X实现自己的梦想了吗?

Some say, that the American Dream has become the pursuit of material prosperity—that people work more hours to get bigger cars, fancier homes, the fruits of prosperity for their families—but have less time to enjoy their prosperity. Others say that the American Dream is beyond the reach of the working poor who must work two jobs for their familys survival. Yet others look toward a new American Dream with less focus on financial gain and more emphasis on living a simple, fulfilling life.

有人说，美国梦已经演变成对物质繁荣的追求——为了买更高级的车，住更豪华的住宅，改善家庭经济状况，人们工作时间增长——却没有足够时间来享受他们的劳动成果。也有人说是美国梦是那些努力工作，为了养家一人兼两职，但是报酬却很低的穷人无法实现的。然而，还有一部分人开始追求新的美国梦，即注重简单而充实的生活，更少地关注经济利益。

[美国梦英文作文

如果可以验血，那么众多的变形金刚身上，一定能查到属于中国的基因，无论是现代文化的融入，还是亘古遥远的关联，至少从动画片到玩具到大电影，《变形金刚》系列的影像作品和衍生产品，都在这个古老的华夏大地上，纷纷散发着异样的光彩，不仅和国人结下了深刻的友谊，而且也让《变形金刚》系列大电影，在内地收获着巨大的票房。

与此同时，在《变形金刚》的系列作品中，也有着越来越多的中国元素，从简单的植入，到深度的剧情，世界的变形金刚，因为有中国文化加持，而变得更加世界化，这样的合作，可以看作是互惠的示好，也可以看作是互利的联姻，而当近日传出华桦传媒成为《变形金刚5：最后的骑士》的中国独家合作伙伴后，让这种形式的结合，又达到了一个顶峰。

由派拉蒙一手打造的《变形金刚》系列大电影始于2007年，到明年2017年的第五部公映，这是一个整整十年的辉煌之路，真人化加炫酷特效制作的《变形金刚》为这个“古老”的故事和毋庸置疑的超级IP，打造了全新的势力范围，回首《变形金刚》系列的市场成绩，从第一部的2.8亿美元，到第二部的4.2亿美元，再到第三四部的10.7美元亿和19.7美元亿，完全是一个野蛮增长的速度，止不住的票房“洪流”已经为即将上映的《变形金刚5》做好了一切的“劲收准备”。

与全球成绩相比，内地的票房，同样亮眼，以2014年公映的《变形金刚4：绝迹重生》为例，内地的首周票房过6亿元人民币，而内地总票房接近20亿元人民币，在当年成为仅次于《阿凡达》的总票房榜眼，再看既往《变形金刚》四部曲的全球票房，完全是近乎翻番的向上滚动，而睽违三年之久，又被称为是终结篇的《变形金刚5》，将有多大的市场潜力，已经不言而喻了。

在《变形金刚4》中满满的中国元素，令人记忆犹新，其中不仅有内地女星李冰冰的出演，也有剧组亲赴重庆武隆天坑地缝景区所取的景，战台烽今夏曾专程赴武隆寻迹，发现一部 《变形金刚4》依然催热了当地的旅游，电影的拍摄给当地带来了巨大的机遇。但好莱坞片商如此重视内地元素的融入，以及内地观众的感受，究其原因，还是看中了内地巨大且让在陆续发展的庞大市场，当然，也包括变形金刚这个大IP在内地受众中的受欢迎程度。

在近日举行的电影《变形金刚5：最后的骑士》项目合作签约仪式上，派拉蒙董事长及首席执行官Brad Grey、全球市场及发行总裁Megan Colligan、国际市场及发行总裁Nic Crawley，华桦传媒总经理王克非等高层领导到场出席，并签署协议，华桦成为《变形金刚5》的中国独家合作伙伴，与派拉蒙就《变形金刚5》的全新影视合作模式达成共识，共同展开了互联互通、合作共赢的新篇章。经过此次的合作曝光，华桦传媒也被迅速推到台前，引发公众的诸多疑问，究竟是一家怎样的公司呢?

其实华桦传媒并非“横空出世”，而是早已经过多年的深耕，成为一个集商务、宣发、营销于一体的实力派公司，以投资、营销等方式与派拉蒙深度合作过多部大片，包括《星际迷航3》、《碟中谍5》、《忍者神龟》、《间谍同盟》等，今次能与《变形金刚5》签下深度合作，拿下内地独家的宣发权，也是得益于华桦传媒曾作为《变形金刚4》的重要中国合作方，亮出过精彩成绩单，成为了近年来影视行业跨国营销的范本。

全球大片行销的本土化战略，适用于任何一家影视公司，毕竟对于一部电影而言，任何一个重要的市场，都不容忽视和放弃，而再大的好莱坞片商，也无暇顾及到所有的潜力和实力市场，选择最合适的合作方，无疑可以达到事半功倍的效果，因此，当《变形金刚》与华桦传媒的合作，成为了一种具有示范作用的成功范本的存在时，无疑也为全球电影市场在内地的合作开拓，提供了全新的思路。

【鸣镝】 作者：董春岭(中国现代国际关系研究院美国所)

2016年美国总统选举已经进入白热化阶段。今年的美国大选可谓“乱”字当头、意外频发，进入最后角逐的希拉里与特朗普两位总统候选人丑闻缠身、争议不断。从希拉里的“邮件门”“健康门”到特朗普的“录音门”“避税门”，再到“最肮脏的总统辩论”，令外界观察者大跌眼镜、不忍直视。并且，希拉里与特朗普比拼的重点似乎不是政策差异，而是“互黑”的手段，并一次又一次刷新“负面选举”的下限。这场乱象频出的大选带给选民的是失望和愤怒，也直观地展示出美国政党政治的衰败。

一方面，极化政治造就另类初选。在奥巴马任内，美国两党之争愈演愈烈，政治极化已经蔓延至美国政治生活的各个角落。两党将党派利益置于国家利益之上，激烈博弈，互不妥协，府会对立，国会分裂，导致事关国家发展的重要议案难以推动，政府关门危机频繁上演。曾提出“历史终结论”的政治学家弗朗西斯·福山将其作为美国政治衰败的一个重要表现。极化政治所产生的愤怒情绪也由政治层面传导到社会层面，导致暴戾之气积聚，枪击等暴力事件频发。

同时，民众厌倦了政党之争和“低效政治”，因此在选举中将矛头指向那些深谙政治规则的传统政客，并寄希望于特朗普和桑德斯这种非传统的政治人物，希望他们能够重新塑造美国的政治文化，

打造温和的中间派，弥合两党之间的裂痕。但之后的选举态势表明，选民这种“天真的”愿望或是被投机者利用，或是被传统政治势力联手扼杀。决胜阶段的两位候选人特朗普和希拉里都没有结束极化政治的意愿和主张，他们都将注意力放在打击和抹黑对手上，都没有意识到美国政治所面临的这场危机，为美国未来所开出的政策“药方”也治标不治本，无法解决美国政治衰败的根源。

另一方面，政党竞争嬗变为“阶级斗争”。与以往美国大选最后阶段截然不同的是，此次特朗普并没有完成对共和党的整合。共和党政治精英阶层，如众议院议长保罗·瑞安、资深参议员麦凯恩等人，纷纷与特朗普“划清界限”;除此之外，共和党传统政治力量布什家族甚至宣布“倒戈”支持希拉里。共和党“建制派”抛弃特朗普的原因不仅仅是因为“他不够资格”，而且更在于他的政治人格与政治诉求是矛盾的。特朗普这位谙熟金钱政治游戏的人，正试图颠覆美国的金钱政治游戏规则，“动既得利益者的奶酪”。而为了阻止特朗普，共和党“建制派”并不寄希望于所谓“民主的力量”和“神圣的选票”，而是试图采用非正常的、反民主的手法来实现目标。这对自诩为“民主典范”的美国而言确实是莫大的讽刺。

与以往大选过程中媒体各有所属阵营的景象不同，在此次大选的决胜阶段，几乎所有的主流媒体都站在了民主党这一边，对特朗普实施“舆论围剿”，各类选择性的报道充斥着偏见与恶意中伤，早已背离了客观中立的新闻原则。这是既有媒体利益集团的支持和希拉里“买断媒体”共同作用的结果。所以特朗普的支持者们主要也只能依靠网络来表达诉求。如果以“建制派的阴谋”来看待所有涉及特朗普的负面报道，主流话语与网络舆情呈现出截然不同的对立态势。这也体现出“精英—大众”民意日益分化的趋势。

在大选的最后阶段，原本的“驴象之争”正戏剧性地演变为另一场变了味道的“华尔街运动”(1%与99%两大阶层的对立)。其结果是共和党内部严重撕裂，传统的两党政治势力均衡被打破。若在此次选举中失败，共和党或将经历一个漫长的恢复与重塑过程，美国的政党政治也将从结构上呈现出长期失衡的局面。 《光明日报》( 2016年10月20日 12版)
