市场人士认为,如果民主党总统候选人希拉里获胜,美国经济政策会比较稳定,而相对来说,共和党总统候选人特朗普政策不确定因素较多,可能会引发市场混乱。

东京股市日经股指9日小幅高开,并在希拉里暂时领先的情况下突破17400点大关。随后,特朗普迎头赶上,日经股指调头向下,早盘结束时下跌近400点。

下午交易时段,日经股指跌幅进一步扩大,一度下跌超过1000点。

当天东京外汇市场也剧烈震荡。9日上午,日元对美元汇率一度跌至105比1左右,但随着特朗普得票数上升,投资者开始抛售美元,日元对美元汇率升至102比1左右。

按行业来看,当天东京股市运输设备业、海运业跌幅超过6%,证券商品期货、钢铁、玻璃陶瓷制品等11个行业板块跌幅超过5%。

收盘时,日经股指下跌919.84点,收于16251.54点。东京证券交易所股票价格指数下跌62.33点,收于1301.16点,跌幅为4.57%。

今天我们坐了10小时的飞机,来到那向往已久的美国。美国是一个风景秀丽,空气清新的地方。街道十分干净,而且建筑形态各异。

我们去了旧金山许多美的地方,有鲜花盛开的九曲花街,浓浓中国味的唐人街,景色壮观的金门大桥,高高的屹立的白塔,充满艺术感的艺术宫,以及现实感十足的日本城……

我最喜欢的景点是艺术宫、九曲花街。艺术宫有许多高大雄伟的建筑,在建筑的石柱上雕刻着许多精致的图案,图案是的花草栩栩如生,哪些的是美国著名的石雕师精心设计并雕琢出来的。九曲花街也十分美丽,先要经过陡峭又弯弯曲曲的小路,坐在车上往下看,仿佛好像躺着花丛中似的,十分有意思。路上还能看见许多与国内不同的花花草草,有的像五颜六色的玉石,有点像柔软的小石子,真是非常有趣。

这些在美丽的美国,我收获了许多新的知识,也见识了许多美丽的景色,同时我的英语水平也得到了提高。美国之行给我留下了深刻的印象,希望下次还能来美国。

在五月二十三号,我们师生代表团,一行十人。前往美国明尼苏达州的明尼阿波利斯。这次我们出访的目的就是要与艾森豪威尔学校结成姐妹学校,互帮互助,互相学习先进的教育理念,达成双赢的效果。

一到艾森豪威尔学校,迎接我们的是热情的欢迎仪式。校长和全体同学非常隆重地接待了我们。一个个节目安排的十分精彩,引得我们不时地鼓掌喝彩。一开始,就有一曲优美的音乐萦绕在我的耳畔。第一首是管弦乐演奏,好像是美国国歌《星条旗》,是那么得悠扬、动听,让人陶醉其中。第二首歌是《雪绒花》,是由小提琴和大提琴演奏的,声音同样很优美,大提琴的低沉和小提琴的轻快形成了鲜明的对比,这两种声音被糅合在了一起,就好像我们两所学校国度不同、肤色不同、语言不同,却有着真挚的情感、融洽的交流。这种声音真是让人难忘。

最精彩的环节是踢踏舞,大约十几个和我们同龄的小朋友们,身穿漂亮鲜艳的服装,伴随着节奏轻快而激昂的音乐,兴高采烈地跳着他们自己心爱的舞蹈,而且韵律独特,踢踢踏踏,十分奇妙,还带着一些动作,令人啧啧称赞。还有一个敲鼓的节目,看起来这是加入了中国元素的,而且声音此起彼伏,据说是排练了很长时间的,真是用心良苦呀。最让人感动的节目是好几个班的小朋友们唱起了中文歌。这么多美国小朋友竟然能说中文!说明美国也刮起了一阵“中文”风!唱的是《蝴蝶花》。真是太让人感动了!真是让人惊讶,艾森豪威尔学校竟这么重视这次交流与访问活动,全校的师生齐聚一堂,真是太隆重了。明尼苏达阿波利斯的教育局局长也出席了这场交流访问活动。接着肖书记代表力学小学发表了重要讲话,主要讲了艾森豪威尔学校和力学小学结成姐妹学校,会与这所学校达成一些重要协议并与艾森豪威尔学校校长交换礼物。

第一次走出国门,看到世界原来这么大,在地球的另一方还有这样的一些学校,学生能够快乐而自由地生活和学习。美国老师和学生的热情好客,毫不生疏地和我们一起嬉笑游戏,我胆怯的心仿佛一下子就飞走了,痛痛快快地和他们一起唱啊、跳啊!

旋转在这世界的舞台上,感受真好!

点评:这是一篇出访美国的叙述文。纵观全篇:流畅生动的语句,好似“庐山瀑布,飞流直下”通顺极了!说明小作者在“世界的舞台上”真正用心地观察并体验到了快乐,习作有血有肉,读起来真是一大享受。

篇5:在美国的两件小事

美国碰到过两件小事,我记忆非常深刻。

一次是在华盛顿艺术博物馆前的开阔地上,一个穿大衣的男子猫腰在地上拾废纸。当风吹起一片废纸时,他就像捉蝴蝶一样跟着跑,抓住后放进垃圾筒内,直到把地上的废纸拾净,他才拍拍手上的土,走了。

另一次,在芝加哥的音乐厅。休息室的一角是可以抽烟的,摆着几个脸盆大小的落地式烟缸,为了不叫里边的烟灰显出难看,里面全是银色的细沙。但大烟缸里没有一个烟蒂。我用手一拂,几个烟蒂被指尖勾起来。原来,人们都把烟蒂埋在下面,是为了看上去不杂乱。值得深思的是,没有一个人不这样做。

有人说,美国人的文化很浅,但教育很好。我十分赞同这一见解。教育好,可以使文化浅的国家的人表现很文明;教育不好,却能使文化古老国家的人文明程度很低,素质很差。

篇6:电影美国的故事观后感

全文共 1248 字

+ 加入清单

到今日美国的历史只有短短的200多年,但是它从一个一无所有,弱小的国家成为一个强国的迅速发展过程给人深刻的一项。《美国的故事》就是这样讲述了美国发展的传奇往事。

影片一开始描述了在17世纪之前,美洲大陆还是一片远古森林,草原上有大群的动物,有着广阔的原野。随着第一批欧洲移民的到来,美国最早的人民就在这里扎了根,从反抗英国的殖民压迫,到追求财富和梦想,美国带着一股不可阻挡的气势发展着,使自己的梦想成真,建设了强大的国家。在不断地征服自然或者非自然的阻力之后,美国在这些富有冒险精神的子民的努力下显现出了他现在模样。

横亘东西的铁路,连接大西洋与五大湖区的运河,洛杉矶的引水渠,耗费夸张的胡佛大坝以及四通八达的高速公路网等这些浩大的工程造就了美国的强大,凝聚了美国人的民族向心力,当然也凝结了美国各色人等的血泪与汗水。但是这些在当时世界绝无仅有的浩大工程非但没有给我们劳民伤财的映像,倒成了美国精神的某种体现。这个国家在这样一群人的呵护下,建立了城市卫生系统用,治安系统以及医疗系统,逐渐成为了一个现代化的样本国家,在不断地茁壮成长。 影片中美国人的战争观给我的映像也很特别,他们对世界第一强国时的那种淡定从容,坚韧无畏。面对与南方的制度对抗的时候的那种为维护自由理想而义无反顾的责任感以及二战中举国一致,同仇敌忾,慷慨赴死的大无畏精神。片中的民众几乎和政府从来没有过什么冲突,政府一直在维护民众的利益而民众也一直在支持着政府,直到那场为纯意识形态而爆发的越战开始后,美国的新一代则显示出美国精神中追求真理,坚持信仰的一面。再加上那始终贯穿本片在战争中对非裔美国人不断地的肯定与赞扬,使我对这个民族有了更深刻的印象。 美国历史上三位总统对推进美国的发展发挥巨大的作用,华盛顿、林肯、罗斯福。

早期美国常年受到英国殖民者的压迫,奋起反抗,但伤亡惨重,美国革命一度陷入窘境。当时,广大革命者在山里,条件艰苦,士兵几乎衣不蔽体,但华盛顿知人善用,最终士兵们打破了传统的作战方式以打游击的形式打倒了当时强大的英国国军队。

林肯,我认为他之所以率领北方军队在南北战争中获得最终的胜利,主要在于他对前线战士的供给及时充足。在南北战争期间他组织建立了强大的电报网以及几乎纵横北美大陆的铁路网。而南方却正是因为铁路的匮乏,供给不足导致其最终的失败。

美国的经济得以如此迅速的发展,我觉得是得益于战争。为供给前线战士,使得美国的纺织业、制造业得到空前的发展。而日本袭击珍珠港之后,美国几乎全民自发的投入到战争供给的制造业中。当然,美国之所以像如今这么强大,还因为美国人都有一种人定胜天的信念,以及团结一心的精神。

影片中除了对民族的自我褒扬之外,还充满了对自身问题的反省。比如对印第安人的驱逐和对非裔美国人的不公正待遇以及破坏生态系统对美洲野牛的灭绝式的屠杀等等。这才是一个成熟的民族应该做到的事,好的事不谦虚,不做作,不好的事,不隐瞒,不回避。我们观看了影片从中了解了美国的发展史,了解了美国文化,从中学习了很多有用的知识。

篇7:美国独特文化作文及翻译

全文共 15203 字

为什么美国文化独特

American culture is unique because it is nurtured, formed and developed under certain conditions, which are characteristically(特性)American. The major factors contributing to the making of this new nation and the forming of a new culture are the hard environment, ethnic diversity(多民族) and plural religion, which is quite different from other nations in the world. What is more, these elements are still influencing the American culture.

1. Rough Environment

The early immigrants who were English Puritans settled down in northeast part of American. The environment there was very rough but they believed the poor land could purify their mind so they chose the place along the coast. From 1607 to 1892, frontiers were pushed further west. The American frontier consisted of the relatively unsettled regions of the United States, usually found in the western part of the country. The frontiersmen looked for a land of rich resources and a land of promise, opportunity and freedom. Actually they looked for a better life. So individualism, self-reliance, and equality of opportunity have perhaps been the values most closely associated with the frontier heritage(遗产) of American.

2. Ethnic Diversity

The population of the United States includes a large variety of ethnic groups coming from many races, nationalities, and religions. People refer to the United States as "melting pot "and the dominant people are British. American is made up of WASP MM, that is, White, Anglo Saxon, Protestants plus Middle Class and Male. In history, people from different countries in the world rushed to American three times. They brought their own culture to American and later on different cultures were mixed together. Thus the unique American culture is formed, a common cultural life with commonly shared values.

3. Plural religion

The fundamental American belief in individual freedom and the right of individuals to practice their own religion is at the center of religious experience in the United States. The great diversity of ethnic backgrounds has produced religious pluralism; almost all of the religions of the world are now practiced in the United States. Christianity(基督教) is the dominant religion in American and Protestant (新教)is predominate(主导)。 Any individuals are equal before God and they believe they can communicate directly to God so they can share the same idea. Under the protestant, many new ones are formed and different explanations produce different sect of religion. Churches are independent and American religion is no longer religion seculars. The institution permits the practice of religion and the political power is separate form religion. So there are more religions in American than in other countries.

4. Current influence:

Nowadays, we can see the continual influence of the three elements in the current American society. American family is typically parents and their unmarried children. Middle-aged and elderly people generally do not live with their married children. Many Americans live in mobile homes whose homes are built with wheels. They can be moved. The people in American have a very strong desire to start a new life in a new place. Quite a number of people change residences(住所) every year. The average American moves fourteen times in his lifetime. The courage to try something new has been an American characteristic. American democracy means majority rule, but it also means protection of minority rights. There are certain freedom which the United States promises to all its citizens and members of minority group cannot be denied these rights by a vote of the majority. Americans also like to be involved in many challenge activities and sports to show their adventurous spirits. All of these are affected by the heritage of the American history.

From the facts above, we can see American culture is unique which was cultivated, formed and developed by the main three factors, rough environment, ethnic diversity and plural religion and still is affected and determined by them now.

美国人最喜欢的小食品鸡翅

From its humble beginnings and unlikely origins, the chicken wing has become one of Americas best-loved snack foods.

The chicken wing first evolved from soup stock staple to American delicacy in 1964. John E. Harmon, in his Atlas of Popular Culture of the Northeastern United States, points to the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, N.Y. as the birthplace of wings. In 40- plus years, chicken wings have become a truly all-American food, showing up on dinner tables, at neighborhood bars, and in chain restaurants, pizza joints and even restaurants where the wings themselves are the focus.

Pace Foods has improved on the original formula for chicken wings with a recipe that combines the spice of Pace Picante Sauce, the sweetness of honey and the zest of fresh ginger to create Hot `nHoneyed Chicken Wings.

"Pace Picante Sauce isnt just for dipping,"said Chris Foley with Pace Foods. "A recipe like Hot `nHoneyed Chicken Wings, which combines sweet and spicy flavors of the Old Southwest and the Far East, shows how versatile, and yet how easy, it can be in cooking."

With this recipe, Pace Foods had taken the delicacy created in snowy Buffalo and made it the perfect summer food.

鸡翅越来越成为美国人最喜欢的小食品。1964年的时候它首先是在汤里出现的。John E. Harmon在他的美国东北部通俗文化地图集里指出鸡翅已经成为全美真正的食物,它在晚餐桌上,在邻居酒吧里,在连锁餐饮店里,在比萨店里,甚至在一些餐馆里它是主打菜。

美国 Alagnak Wild River(奔河)

Alagnak Wild River is located in the beautiful Aleutian Range. The river provides unparalleled opportunities to experience the wilderness of the Alaska Peninsula.

The Alagnak Wild River, designated as a wild river by Title VI, Section 601(25) and 603(44) of ANILCA, preserves the upper 56 miles of the river in a free-flowing condition, and protects the river and its immediate environments for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations. The river is managed free of impoundments and diversion, inaccessible by road, its shorelines primitive and its water unpolluted. The Alagnak is the most popular fly-in fishery in southwest Alaska, and has experienced a significant increase in use over the last several years. The Alagnak Wild River protects populations of all five species of pacific salmon, was well as significant rainbow trout, arctic char, arctic grayling, and northern pike populations. The increasing sport fishery on the river is a topic of concern to many subsistence users and other local residents.

夏天是美国人旅游的好季节

Its summertime, and the livinis easy. For many Americans, this is the season to travel. Why? Because school is out. Because the weather is great. And most of all, because we all deserve a break. When Americans take a break, they often head for their favorite vacation spot.

Throughout their history, Americans have been people on the move. The early immigrants had to travel to get to the New World. Once they arrived, they settled along the East Coast. But they werent content to stay there. Explorers and traders journeyed to the unknown western territories. Later, settlers moved west to develop these new areas. As a result of this westward migration, Americans eventually occupied the whole continent-from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Even today, Americans seem unable to stay put. Research says that the average American moves every five years.

Besides their habit of changing addresses, Americans are used to traveling. Some people make long-distance commutes to work daily. Their jobs may even require them to take frequent business trips. Most companies provide an annual vacation for their employees, and people often use that time to travel. Some people just visit friends or relatives in distant states. Others go on low-budget weekend excursions and stay in economy motels. Those with more expensive tastes choose luxurious resorts and hotels. Camping out in the great outdoors appeals to adventurous types. Some travel in recreational vehicles (RVs) to camp out in comfort, while others "rough it"by sleeping in tents.

Most Americans prefer to travel within their nations borders. Why? For one thing, its cheaper than traveling abroad, and theres no language problem. But besides that, the vast American territory offers numerous tourist attractions. Nature lovers can enjoy beaches, mountains, canyons, lakes and a wealth of natural wonders. Major cities offer visitors a multitude of urban delights. The convenience of modern freeways, railways and airplanes makes travel in America as easy as pie.

Many American vacations are as unique as the people who take them. Families often plan their trips with the kids in mind. More and more "family friendly"vacation resorts offer special programs for children. History buffs seek out famous historical sites and museums. Environmentalists prefer "green vacations."These trips allow them to observe flora and fauna up-close without disturbing the sensitive balance of nature. Some people find sea cruises relaxing and refreshing. Others hit the water to go fishing, skiing or white-water rafting. Daring souls get the thrill of a lifetime on trekking expeditions and safaris in remote places from Africa to Asia.

Americans arent the only people in the world who travel. International business, mass communication and jet airplanes have created a world of globetrotters. People all over the world enjoy going abroad to travel. And no matter where they live, people enjoy visiting scenic spots in their own country. But being on the go makes Americans what they are: people on the move. In America, almost every-body is a tourist sometime.

夏天到了,生活很惬意。对很多美国人来说,这是个旅游的季节,为什么?因为学校放假,因为天气很好,但最重要的是,休个假是我们所应得的。美国人休假时经常会去他们最喜欢的渡假地点。

纵观整个历史,美国人一直是个迁移的民族。早期的移民者必须长途跋涉才能抵达新大陆,他们一到达就沿着东岸定居,但却不满于长居那地,冒险家和商人旅行至未知的西部地区。稍后,移民者也向西迁移去开发这些新地区。由于向西迁移,美国人最后占据了整块新大陆——从大西洋到太平洋。即使到今天,美国人似乎仍然无法在一地久居。根据研究,美国人平均每五年要搬一次家。

除了搬家的习惯以外,美国人也很习惯旅行。有些人每天上下班得做长距离的通勤,工作上甚至经常需要因公旅行。大部分的公司每年会提供年假给员工,人们通常会利用这段时间去旅行。有些人去远一点的别州拜访朋友或亲戚,有些则在周末有个经济的小假期,并住在花费不高的旅馆里。品味较昂贵的人选择豪华的渡假地点和饭店;绝佳的户外露营则吸引冒险型的人。有些人开着旅行车出游,以舒适的方式露营;有些人则睡帐篷尝试野外生活。

大部分美国人比较喜欢在国内旅游,为什么呢?其中一个原因是,国内旅游比国外旅游便宜,也没有语言不通的问题。但除此原因以外,占地极广的美国国土提供了许多能吸引游客的地点。爱好大自然的人可以到海滩、山上、峡谷、湖泊和很多大自然奇景地区游览。大城市也提供给游客们很多都市型态的娱乐。现代高速公路、铁路和飞机使得在美国旅行很容易。

很多美国假期非常特别,和参与此种假期的人一样特别。全家出游时通常会将孩子考虑在内,有愈来愈多「适合全家出游」的渡假地点为孩子提供特别的活动。对历史有兴趣的人会找一些著名的历史据点和博物馆。有环保意识的人喜欢「环保假期」,这样的旅行使他们能近距离观察动植物,并且不会扰乱了大自然敏感的生态平衡。有些人觉得海上旅游能使心情放松并感到清爽,有些人则到水边钓鱼、滑水或泛舟。胆子大的人到亚洲和非洲去探险狩猎作长途旅行,享受一辈子难得一次的刺激。

美国人不是世上唯一爱旅行的人。国际企业、大众传播与喷射机创造了一个环游世界者的世纪。全世界的人都喜欢到海外旅游,不管住在那里,人们都喜欢去造访自己国家内风景优美的地区。不过好动的本性使美国人变成今天的模样:成为爱迁移的人。在美国,几乎每个人都有旅游的经验。

美式食物:吃什么就成为什么样子

"You are what you eat."Nutrition experts often use this saying to promote better eating habits. What we put in our mouths does become a part of us. But we can look at this statement another way. What we eat reflects who we are——as people and as a culture. Do you want to understand another culture? Then you ought to find out about its food. Learning about American food can give us a real taste of American culture.

What is "American food"? At first you might think the answer is easy as pie. To many people, American food means hamburgers, hot dogs, fried chicken and pizza. If you have a "sweet tooth,"you might even think of apple pie or chocolate chip cookies. Its true that Americans do eat those things. But are those the only kind of vittles you can find in America?

Except for Thanksgiving turkey, its hard to find a typically "American"food. The United States is a land of immigrants. So Americans eat food from many different countries. When people move to America, they bring their cooking styles with them. Thats why you can find almost every kind of ethnic food in America. In some cases, Americans have adopted foods from other countries as favorites. Americans love Italian pizza, Mexican tacos and Chinese egg rolls. But the American version doesnt taste quite like the original!

As with any large country, the U.S.A has several distinct regions. Each region boasts its own special style of food. Visit the South and enjoy country-style cooking. Journey through Louisiana for some spicy Cajun cuisine. Take a trip to New England and sample savory seafood dishes. Travel through the Midwest, "the breadbasket of the nation,"for delicious baked goods. Cruise over to the Southwest and try some tasty Tex-Mex treats. Finish your food tour in the Pacific Northwest with some gourmet coffee.

Americans living at a fast pace often just "grab a quick bite."Fast food restaurants offer people on the run everything from fried chicken to fried rice. Microwave dinners and instant foods make cooking at home a snap. Of course, one of the most common quick American meals is a sandwich. If it can fit between two slices of bread, Americans probably make a sandwich out of it. Peanut butter and jelly is an all-time American favorite.

Americans on the go also tend to eat a lot of "junk food."Potato chips, candy bars, soft drinks and other goodies are popular treats. Many people eat too many of these unhealthy snacks. But others opt for more healthy eating habits. Some even go "all natural."They refuse to eat any food prepared with chemicals or additives.

American culture is a good illustration of the saying "you are what you eat."Americans represent a wide range of backgrounds and ways of thinking. The variety of foods enjoyed in the U.S. reflects the diversity of personal tastes. The food may be international or regional. Sometimes its fast, and sometimes its not so fast. It might be junk food, or maybe its natural food. In any case, the style is all-American.

"你吃什么就成为什么样子"营养专家经常使用这句话来倡导更好的饮食习惯,入嘴的东西确实成为我们的一部分。但我们也可以从另一个角度来看这句话,我们所吃的反映出我们自己——不论就人或文化而言。你想了解另一种文化吗?那么你应该去认识他们的食物。认识美国食物可以让我们得知美国文化的精髓。

何谓「美式食物」?乍听之下你可能认为答案容易得很。对许多人而言,美式食物就是汉堡、热狗、炸鸡和披萨。如果你是好吃甜食的人,你可能会想到苹果派或巧克力片饼干。美国人确实吃这些东西,但这些就是你在美国唯一找得到的食物吗?

除了感恩节火鸡以外,挺难找到典型的美国食物。美国是个移民之地,所以美国人吃的食物来自许多不同的国家,当人们移居美国,他们也将自己的烹调带了进来。那也就是为什么在美国你几乎可以看到所有不同民族的食物。在某些情况中,美国人把外国的食物视为最爱。美国人喜爱意大利的披萨,墨西哥的玉米饼和中国的春卷,但是这些东西的美国版味道却不很道地!

和许多大国一样,美国有数个截然不同的地区,每个地区都以自己特有的食物夸口。走访美国南部享受乡村式的烹调;到路易斯安纳州品尝辛辣的凯郡式料理;走一趟新英格兰试尝它美味的海鲜;再到中西部「美国的面包之乡」品尝可口的烘培食品;乘船游览至西南部尝试一些好吃的墨式德州小吃,最后到太平洋西北岸,啜饮美食家的咖啡,作为美食之旅的句点。

生活在快速步调之下的美国人通常只能「很快地吃几口」。快餐店提供赶时间的人各种食物,从炸鸡到炒饭,应有尽有。微波炉晚餐和实时餐点使得在家烧饭省事又快速。当然,最平常的美式速餐之一就是三明治。任何能夹在两片土司中间的东西,美国人就可以把它作成一份三明治,花生酱和果酱更是一直都深受美国人的喜爱。

忙碌的美国人也趋向于吃一大堆「垃圾食物」。洋芋片、糖果、汽水和其它好吃的东西都颇受欢迎。许多人吃了太多这类不健康的零嘴,但是其它人则选择较健康的饮食习惯,有些人甚至选择「全天然」的食物,他们拒绝吃任何有化学制品或添加物的食物。

美国文化是「你吃什么就成为什么样子」这句话的好写照。美国人代表了范围广泛的背景和想法。在美国可享受到的各式食物正反映出个人品味的多样化。这食物可能是国际性也可能是地区性的;有时是快餐,有时也不见得;它可能是垃圾食物,也可能是天然食品。然而无论如何,它们都是美式的。

但是旅途可算是非常值得,凯菲利普斯说谁的作品包括教堂山,北卡罗莱纳州的164英里的花岗岩瀑布从她家。

“我真的很喜欢我做什么,所以我并不介意,”她说。

尽管吉文斯花费他听收音机上下班了,特别是交通报告,飞利浦,52岁,用她自己的方式在五个小时的通勤 - 她祈祷。

一觉醒来,只听老妈的声音:“get up, get up!”啊!老妈啥时候会英语了?而且还是美式英语!我揉了揉眼睛,睁开朦胧的睡眼,老妈啥时候染了一头黄发?我说:“妈,你啥时候染的头?”老妈丈二和尚——摸不着头脑地说:“pardon? You buy we breakfast now ?”唉,跟她我也没什么好说的,便说了句:“ok , pleas gave me money !”

接过钱,我立马发现竟是传说中的Doller(美元),我跑出房子,回头一瞧,妈呀!我家什么时候变成了美式住宅了?

我去了一个便利店说:“give me a pice of bread , cola and a carrot 。”唉,真是“英语”到用时方恨少,葱我不会说,只是想起美国人有时也买一盘牛肉的,我灵机一动便说:“ a pice of meat 。”最后服务员给我一袋面包、一罐饮料、一袋牛肉和一袋胡萝卜。我没有买任何调味品。因为我知道,美国人一般不用调味品,他们只用色拉油。

我回到家才来得及打量一下这个家里。这里具体规划比较实用、舒适。我还发现小区里有学校、商店、文体设施、公园、银行、邮局……等等都十分具全。

TINY ghost—like dolls hang from trees, big plastic spiders sit on rooftops and bloody plastic hands reach out from gravestones…Are you ready for the scariest night of the year?

October 31 is Halloween, one of the most popular festivals in the US, Canada and Britain。 The festival began as a day to remember the dead。 But nowadays its all about the carnival atmosphere when people can enjoy dressing up and scaring each other。

Halloween is one of childrens favourite nights of the year。 They dress up as monsters and go to their neighbourshouses。 Knocking on the door they shout: "Trick or treat!" Of course, usually people give them "treats" - a like sweets and chocolates。 But, if you dont, you can expect a prank such as having your car windows soaped or your garbage cans turned over。

Halloween is also a time for masquerade parties。 Witches fly in on broomsticks, while ghosts and skeletons chat on the dance floor。

You can even dress up as a famous monster like Dracula! The motto is: "The scarier, the better。" 。”

Even making Halloween food should be like casting a spell or mixing a magic drink。 In Britain, people drink "Witchs Mix", made with apple, orange, grape and berry juice。 Children also enjoy "Halloween Worms," made from egg noodles。 And how do you like the sound of "Eye—Balls"? Dont worry, theyre made with scoops of chocolate and vanilla ice cream, shaped like human eyes。 Skeleton—shaped cookies are equally popular。

A well—known Halloween tradition is to make lanterns from pumpkins, called "Jack—o—lanterns"。 First, the inside of the pumpkin is removed。 Then, a face is cut into the pumpkin, traditionally a smiling, devil face。 Finally a candle is placed inside, and the lantern is put at the front of the house to keep evil spirits away。

Besides pumpkin cutting, "apple—bobbing" is another popular game。 Several apples are put floating in water in a big bucket。 Children have their hands tied behind their backs。 They have to try to pick the apples out of the water using only their mouths。 Of course, people get very wet and it is very funny to watch。

今天,茆老师带来了一则消息:校长要准备一次探访美国活动,每个班级都要把教室装扮成美国。大家听后,都十分兴奋。最后,茆老师决定把教室扮成纽约。我收到了一个任务,就是找一段自由女神像的介绍,并把它写在一个纸盘子里。

一到家,做完作业,我就开始认真地在网上找自由女神的资料。我打开电脑,打入“自由女神像简介”几个字,然后按了一下回车键。屏幕上立刻就出现了许多有关自由女神的介绍。我精挑细选,终于挑中了一段最合我意的介绍。我仔细地读了很多遍,明白了原来自由女神戴着的不是花环,而是光芒四射的冠冕。她右手高举象征自由的火炬,左手捧着一本法律典籍,脚上的铁链早已被打碎,象征着挣脱暴政的约束和自由。看上去真是宏伟壮观!我赶紧仔仔细细地把这一段文字工工整整地抄下来,然后一丝不苟地誊写在了盘子上。

接着,我开始找图片。我在百度网上找了半天,终于找到了一张既清楚又宏伟的图片,便把它复制到了world里,再用打印机将它打了下来。自由女神像的图片终于打印好啦!最后,我沿着轮廓将自由女神剪了下来,小心翼翼地放进了文件夹,准备第二天交给老师。

第二天,老师看了我收集的资料和图片,满意地点了点头,让我再一次誊写在正式的盘子上。我立刻认真地去做,最终,这个任务总算完成了!

通过这次活动,我体会到了做任何一个任务都要十分认真地去做,才能做得最好。希望在这次“探访美国”活动中,我能多为班级做些事!

篇17:美国独立宣言读后感

全文共 793 字

+ 加入清单

独立宣言》发表于1776年7月4日,之后这一天成为美国的国庆日,也叫独立日。显而易见,该宣言的发表目的在于向全世界阐述联合殖民地脱离大不列颠的理由,此外,美国式自由主义思想也在其中显而易见。

《独立宣言》开篇不长的部分讲到了人权,讲到了政权和人民的关系:“人人生而平等,造物主赋予他们若干不可让与的权利,其中包括生存权、自由权和追求幸福的权利。为了保障这些权利,人们才在他们中间建立政府,而政府的正当权利,则是经被统治者同意授予的。任何形式的政府一旦对这些目标的实现起破坏作用时,人民便有权予以更换或废除,以建立一个新的政府。”这是殖民地人民对自由的向往和追求。《独立宣言》为美国的自由主义提供了一个天然的环境,为自由主义在美国的发展奠定了基础,之后的百年时间内,他们终将把理论付诸于实践,建立了互相制衡的政府体系。

《独立宣言》是第一个《人权宣言》,基本确立了《人权宣言的》精神内容,为浩浩荡荡的法国大革命的爆发奠定了思想和理论基础,直接影响了法国大革命,跨越了几个世纪仍然被作为真理而尊奉,更有力的说明了其精神的基本性和伟大。

尽管在宣言中体现出对印第安民族的丑化:“他在我们中间煽动内乱,并竭力挑唆残酷无情的印地安蛮子来对付我们边疆的居民,而众所周知,印地安人作战的准则是不分男女老幼、是非曲直,格杀勿论。”有一定的种族歧视。此外,最近看一些美国批评家的文章,都在骂美国的平等有问题。还有,众多国家,包括中国在内都有指责美国式民主思想无礼横扫世界。但是,今天,我们很有幸看到了美国第一任黑人总统的在职,不禁回想至《独立宣言》和其宏大思想在当时说出的类似夸口的自由。也许正是它促使美国不断兑现这种对自由的诺言,为世界民主进程烙下了属于自己的痕迹。

《独立宣言》虽然不是美国的宪法或其组成的部分,也不具备宪法的效力。但它的影响在美国历史上意义重大,不可小觑,是世界民主进程中一块不朽的丰碑。

篇18:美国.战争.丑陋作文800字作文

全文共 849 字

+ 加入清单

随着伊美战争的打响,五角大楼被炸,世界各地的恐怖活动为人们憧憬的和平社会亮起了红灯,战争给人们心里蒙上了一层沉重的阴影。我们要和平,不要战争。我们要高雅,不要丑陋

有些国家,为其自身利益,倚着自身力量的强大,悍然引发战争。到头来,还不是赔了夫人又折兵。伊美战争就是个很好的例子。在攻打伊拉克之前,美国提出了许多还没有找出证据的来攻打伊拉克的理由。其真正目的也许大家都相当清楚,那就是,对!石油及其中东地区的控制。按布什的想法,以美国的先进武器和雄厚的资金基础,控制伊拉克石油简直易如反掌。

2003年4月14日,五角大楼宣布主战以胜利结束,然而战后一系列的麻烦也随之而来。伊拉克的自杀式爆炸袭击,已成为美国人的噩梦。至今美军在伊拉克死亡人数已超过了1500人。

按理来说,打赢了这场战役,推翻了萨达姆统治,也就意味着美国可以控制伊拉克原油的出口,然而事情却出乎他的意料,伊拉克武装分子炸毁油田,用多种方式破坏美国修建的输油管道,这确实能让布什头疼,然而,在伊拉克的烂摊子还没有收拾好,却又对朝鲜、叙利亚、伊朗提出了话茬,真不知布什是怎么想的。

美国一向扛着自由,民主,人权大旗,对世界190个国家指手划脚,然而虐囚事件的曝光之后,世界各地人们看到了美军虐伊战俘的骇人画面,这些不堪入目,令人恶心的画面无一透射出道德的严重沦丧,文明的巨大不幸。它们刺痛了人们的神经,震撼了人们的灵魂,也使人们看清了强权下的美国是“自由”的真相,美国是“民主”的实质,美国是“人权”的内涵。

美国不顾欧盟的反对,发动了伊拉克战争,使美国与欧盟的关系逐渐疏远,我们不愿意美国成为第2个法西斯,如果美国仗着“世界警察”的身份,继续对与你共同属于这个地球上的其他国家实施“暴力”。那么第3次世界大战就离我们不远了,到当时。受苦的是老百姓,“流泪”的还有地球。核武器的大量使用,也必将使人类失去赖以生存的家园——地球。纵然科技再发达,纵然军事再强大,到那时,也无济于事了。

所以我们要提倡和平,造就一个和谐社会,让人类一辈一辈活得更好。

第一篇:美国文化

This Thursday is Thanksgiving Day. The writer O’Henry called it the one day that is purely American. Thanksgiving is not a religious holiday. But it has ritual meaning. Some Americans attend religious services on the day before Thanksgiving or on Thanksgiving morning. Others travel long distances to be with their families. They have a large dinner which is the main part of the celebration. For many Americans, Thanksgiving is the only time when all members of the family gather. The holiday is a time of family reunion. Thanksgiving week is generally one of the busiest travel times of the year. However, experts say this year probably will be different. On September 11th, thousands of people died when terrorists hijacked airplanes that struck buildings in Washington D.C. and New York City. Many people now say they are worried about flying on a plane. Travel experts say almost 6 percent fewer people will make long trips this Thanksgiving compared with last year. Many Americans who usually visit family and friends by plane are driving shorter distances instead this week. Some mental health experts say the attacks have frightened people. They say people feel safer and happier close to home. More than any other holiday, Thanksgiving is a celebration of family and home. Many people say that this year they are especially thankful for their families and friends and the good things in their lives. On Thanksgiving, people enjoy a long day of cooking, eating and talking. The traditional meal almost always includes the turkey with a bread mixture cooked inside. Other traditional Thanksgiving food served with turkey are sweet potatoes, cranberries and pumpkin pie. Stores are said to sell more food at Thanksgiving than at any other time of the year, and many people eat more food at Thanksgiving than at any other time of the year. Over the years, Americans have added new traditions to their Thanksgiving celebration. For example, a number off professional and university football games are played on Thanksgiving Day. Some of the games are broadcast on national television.

第二篇:美国文化

The main content of American culture is the emphasize on individuals value, the pursue of democracy and freedom, the promotion of deploitation(开拓, 经营) and competition and the need of realistic and practicality. Its core is individualism: self first, personal need first, pursue of individual benefit and enjoyment, emphasize on achieving individual value by self-strive and self-design. This type of intentionally build up of personality and pursue customized individualism has its pros and cons, it gives incentives to people and make them exert on their potential and wisdom and as a result accelerate the development of the entire race and nation; on the other hand it is difficult to keep good relationship among people if everyone is egocentric thus make the entire society lack of unity.

American citizens emphasize on achievements and respect heroes. They have great sense in their hearts to praise succeand heroes. Personal achievements are one of those with the highest value in Americans mind. Americans have very strong senses of success. Succeis the pursuit of most Americans, it is their attractive future and the incentives for moving forward. They believe that ones personal value is equivalent to his achievements in his career. Some high achievers in their career such as entrepreneurs, scientists, artists and all kinds of super starts became modern heroes. The proceand result of how they strived have become the frame of reference of social culture value and the real life text book for parents to educate their children.

American society has great movements within itself. These movements are shown in two aspects: movements amongst locations and movements inside the society. The United States are relatively more open and have more freedom. Developed transport and the tradition of adventure and sporty makes a lot of American migrate from countryside to cities, from downtown to uptown; and from north to the southern sunny land, from one city to another. Unlike European countries, the social classes in America is not so stable. Further more, with the advocation of public education, movements upwards along the social ladder have become possible. Many people living in the states, no matter whether they are Native American or immigrants from overseas, have the same dream of changing their social claand make their lifetime dream come true through their own efforts. This is what they often called "American dream".

翻译:

美国文化的主要内容是强调个人价值,追求民主和自由,促进开拓(开拓,经营)和竞争和现实的需要和实用性。其核心是个人主义:自我第一,个人需要首先,追求个人利益和享受,强调实现个人价值self-strive和自行设计。个性与追求这种类型的有意建立定制的个人主义有其优点和缺点,它给激励人们,让他们发挥他们的潜力和智慧,因此加快整个种族和民族的发展;另一方面很难如果每个人都以自我为中心的人保持良好的关系从而使整个社会缺乏团结。

美国公民强调成就和尊重英雄。他们有很大的感觉在心里称赞succeand英雄。个人成就是其中一个最高的价值在美国人心中。美国人有很强的成功的感觉。Succeis大多数美国人的追求,这是他们吸引力的未来,前进的动力。他们认为一个人的个人价值相当于他的成就在他的职业生涯。一些成功人士在他们的职业生涯如企业家、科学家、艺术家和各类超级开始成为现代英雄。的proceand结果如何努力已经成为社会文化价值的参照系和现实生活教科书,父母教育他们的孩子。

第三篇:美国文化

American culture, in a sense, is an extension of European culture, because the language of the Americans, demographic composition and her spirit of the foundation are from Europe. On the other hand, American culture with Europe, because European immigrants in the North American continent to drive away after taking the Indians, in a barren wilderness land to create a stunning is the splendid civilization. Therefore, in the United States talk about cultural practices and social propriety, it is necessary to take account of the same culture of Europe and the United States, but also pay attention to both of the opposite sex. Cultural practices is a wide scope and complexity of the topic, people involved in social life and relations In all aspects.

Of tolerance.

The United States is a country of immigrants, the ancestors from around the world. People emigrated to the United States, not only in the location to move on, but also in their country and customs of the council to a new place of residence. As miscellaneous, people their differences very obvious because the differences are very common, people do not particularly pay attention to unity. In time, the cultural practices of the Americans formed a higher level of tolerance (tolerance), the different cultures and different appraisals on tolerance, an acceptable attitude. At this point, the U.S. society feasible than the custom of other countries in the world more broadly.

From a political perspective, this tolerance of performance in the pursuit of freedom and the right to freedom of maintenance. From the religious that it reflected in the harmonious coexistence of different faiths. From the viewpoint of life, and it appeared in different communities, different ethnic communities live in peace. In a nutshell, in the United States, each person can basically arbitrary choice of different ideas, beliefs, traditions and customs and way of life; people can also keep a considerable extent, their customs and instrument. For example, Jews can celebrate their religious festivals, and Christians are to their Christmas and Easter. For example, again, the United States by Chinese in Chinatown Chinese live and work; the same token, the Vietnamese immigrants in their "little Saigon" according to Vietnams way of doing business and engaged in various activities.

Americans of tolerance, in addition to the above United States is a country that factors other than immigration, and the frequent movement of the Americans. As everyone knows, the history of the United States in the development of an important part of her history of the development of the western region. At that time, the United States Blazers or hiking, horseback or car, from east to west, from north to south, wherever there are opportunities, there Jiuwang resettlement. The frequent migration and continuous replacement of the Habitat so that people will always be in the "mobile", and the occasional different facing the phenomenon of tolerance and more easily accepted. Moreover, the current migration also can help people expand the field of vision, known more widely know, the different practices with sympathy, understanding, and gradually formed diversity rather than uniformity of the openness of the concept.

As the Americans tolerant of stronger, so very few Americans to impose its will on other people, with China Confucius "by the others do not want to, not to impose on" the very Guxun like. For example, a husband may be a Republican, but he must not support the Democratic Party forced his wife to change political stance. Similarly, perhaps the mother is a Catholic, but she must not have forced her into a Muslim convert son to change religion. In their daily lives and habits of business in normal times, this spirit of tolerance is a common occurrence, commonplace.

翻译:

美国文化,从某种意义上说,是欧洲文化的延伸,因为美国人的语言、人口构成和她来自欧洲的精神基础。另一方面,美国文化与欧洲,因为欧洲移民在北美大陆印第安人赶走后,在一个贫瘠的荒野地创建一个惊人的是灿烂的文明。因此,在美国谈论文化习俗和社会规范,有必要考虑相同的欧洲和美国的文化,但也注意到这两个异性。文化习俗是一个广泛的范围和复杂性的话题,人们参与社会生活,在各方面的关系。

的宽容。

美国是一个移民国家,来自世界各地的祖先。人移民到美国,不仅在位置移动,而且在他们的国家和风俗理事会的新居住地。杂,人们分歧非常明显,因为差异是非常普遍的,人们并不特别关注团结。随着时间的推移,美国人的文化习俗形成了一个更高层次的公差(公差),宽容不同文化和不同的评估,一个可接受的态度。在这一点上,美国社会可行的比世界上其他国家的习俗。

从政治角度看,这种宽容的性能追求自由和维护自由的权利。从宗教,它体现在不同信仰的和谐共存。从生活的角度,它出现在不同的社区,不同的民族生活在和平。简而言之,在美国,每个人基本上可以任意选择不同的观念、信仰、传统、习俗和生活方式,人们也可以保持相当大的程度上,他们的习俗和乐器。例如,犹太人可以庆祝他们的宗教节日,而基督教徒,他们的圣诞节和复活节。例如,美国,中国在唐人街中国生活和工作,同样,越南移民在他们的“小西贡”按越南的方式经营和从事各种活动。

美国人的宽容,除了上面的美国是一个非移民因素的国家,和经常运动的美国人。众所周知,美国历史发展的一个重要组成部分的西部地区的发展的历史。当时,美国开拓者或徒步旅行、骑马或汽车,从东到西,从南到北,哪里有机遇,Jiuwang安置。频繁的迁移和不断更换栖息地,这样人们将永远是“移动”,以及偶尔的现象所面临的不同更容易宽容和接受。此外,经常迁移还能够帮助人们扩大视野,了解更广泛的知道,不同的实践同情、理解,并逐渐形成多样性而非均匀性开放的概念。

强大的美国人宽容,所以很少有美国人将自己的意志强加于他人,与中国孔子“别人不想,不要对“Guxun像。例如,丈夫可能是个共和党人,但他必须不支持民主党迫使他的妻子改变政治立场。同样,也许妈妈是天主教徒,但她决不能强迫她进入一个穆斯林把儿子改变宗教信仰。在日常生活和习惯的业务在正常情况下,这种宽容精神是一种常见的发生,司空见惯。
