美國英語名篇一

americans love all kinds of food, italian, chinese, mexican, greek, french, japanese and many others. the americans are in fact

“the un of food.”

to get familiar with the american eating custom, one must know two things. first, one must know the sequence5 of service. there is something special in terms of the sequence, or order, of dish service in america compared with ours. here is the order:

1. aperitif6—a small cup of alcoholic drink to increase one's appetite7. the host or hostess will ask: “do you like a cup of aperitif?”

2. hors d'oeuvre8—some tasty food offered in small quantities at the beginning of a meal.

3. appetizer —or called starter, it is a small serving of juice, fruit or seafood or something else, at the beginning of a meal, to stimulate9 people's appetite.

4. now the main course is under way:

a) soup—it is usually the first course in a dinner.

b) fish—it is usually served after the soup and before the entree10 in a formal meal.

c) entree—the third course of a meal, generally it is made up of a hot meat.

d) savory11—the last course in a formal meal, it is something pleasant to eat but with a salty rather than sweet taste.

5. dessert12 —sweet food served toward the end of a meal, usually it is a pudding, chocolate cake, or cheese and biscuits sometimes.

6. coffee—that's the last stage in a formal present-day european and american dinner. it's served either at table or in the living room.

in a family treatment, the above-mentioned no 1-3 stage may be omitted13, though no 4 is the essential part. and the main course generally includes no more than 5 dishes of nutrient14 food. ostentation15 is never under consideration.

another thing to mention is that serving oneself from one's own plate is popular in europe and america, except for the soup and bread which is taken and enjoyed according to one's need.

the second one we must know about the american eating custom is the taboos at table.

(1) don't circle your plate with your arm. if you do so, you will become the focus16 of the table. everyone would wonder: “is there anything wrong with the food?” this may give a false message that you don't like the food or something like that.

(2) don't push the plate back when finished. leave it where it was. do you mean to remind17 the hostess that you've just completed a labor?

(3)don't lean18 back and announce that “i'm through” or “i'm stuffed19.” just put the fork and knife quietly across the plate, that's all.

(4) don't cut up everything before you start to eat. cut only one or two bites20 at a time.

(5) never take huge mouthfuls of anything. do you mean to show how hungry you are? don't do that! be gentlemanlike or ladylike.

(6) don't crook21 your finger when picking up a cup or glass. that looks too affected22, far from ladylike!

(7) never wear too much lipstick23 to the table. it may stain the napkins24 and look gaudy25 and embarrassing on the rims26 of the cup or glass.

(8) it's never acceptable to reach across the table for anything (a serving dish, for example). if the item you want is not at hand, simply ask for the nearest person for help, like “mrs. smith, would you mind passing me the butter (or a dish)?”

caucus goers met at sites around the state to show support for their candidate and be counted in the first contest of the 20xx 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 it's 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 don't agree. i believe in equality and respect for all people and i don't 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, let's 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 o'malley and former arkansas governor mike huckabee, dropped out after poor showings today in iowa.

music 美國人的音樂愛好

james fenimore cooper, an early american writer, once said, "the americans are almost ignorant of the art of music." if that was once true, you would never know it today. most americans——even those without a musical bone in their bodies——have a favorite style of music. many people enjoy classical and folk music from around the world. but other popular music styles in america were "made in the u.s.a."

一位美國早期的作家柯柏(james fenimore cooper)曾說：「美國人對音樂藝術(shù)幾乎可以說是相當(dāng)?shù)臒o知?！谷绻@話曾經(jīng)是事實，今日你絕不會這么認(rèn)為了。大部份的美國人，甚至包括那些沒有音樂細(xì)胞的人，都有自己喜愛的音樂型態(tài)。許多人喜歡世界各國的古典音樂和民俗音樂，然而美國其它的流行音樂則是「在美國制造」的。

country and western music lies close to the heart of many americans. this style originated among country folks in the southern and western united states. country music tells down-to-earth stories about love and life's hardships. guitars, banjos and violins——also known as fiddles——give country music its characteristic sound. the home of country music is nashville, tennessee——music city u.s.a. country music even has its own theme park called "opryland" where you can enjoy music shows and fun rides. "the grand ole opry," the oldest radio show in the united states, broadcasts country music live from opryland every weekend.

鄉(xiāng)村和西部音樂深得很多美國人的人心，這種型態(tài)的音樂起源于美國南部和西部的鄉(xiāng)村小民們。鄉(xiāng)村音樂傳述著真實不加渲染的愛情故事和生活中的艱難。吉他、五弦琴和小提琴(violin又名fiddle)可彈奏出鄉(xiāng)村音樂的特殊音色。鄉(xiāng)村音樂的發(fā)源地是田納西州的納許維爾市——美國的音樂城市。而鄉(xiāng)村音樂甚至還有它自己的主題樂園——opryland呢!在那兒你可以享受音樂表演以及好玩的游樂設(shè)施。美國最老牌的廣播節(jié)目「the grand ole opry」每個周末都實況播放opryland的音樂。

jazz music, developed by african-americans in the late 1800s, allows performers to freely express their emotions and musical skill. instead of just playing the melody, jazz musicians improvise different tunes using the same chords. the peak of jazz music came in the 1920s, known as "the jazz era." this period produced musicians like louis armstrong, benny goodman and duke ellington. these musicians later created the "big band" sounds of the 1930s. different styles of jazz developed in different cities, such as new orleans, chicago, new york and kansas city. composer george gershwin brought jazz into the world of classical music with pieces like "rhapsody in blue."

爵士樂是十九世紀(jì)末期由非裔的美國人發(fā)展出來的。它讓表演者自由地表現(xiàn)他們的情感和音樂技巧。不僅演奏旋律，爵士音樂大師用同樣的和弦即興演奏出不同的曲調(diào)。爵士樂的高峰期出現(xiàn)于二○年代，該時期被稱為「爵士年代」。這個時期創(chuàng)造出來的'樂手有阿姆斯特朗(louise armstrong)，古德曼(benny goodman)和埃林頓(duke ellington)。這些樂手稍后都創(chuàng)造了三○年代的「大樂團(tuán)」之音。在不同的城市也孕育出不同的爵士風(fēng)格，像是紐奧爾良、芝加哥、紐約和坎薩斯市。作曲家蓋希文(george gershwin)更以像「藍(lán)色狂想曲」這樣的作品，將爵士樂帶入古典音樂的世界里。

美國英語名篇六

chinese families and american families

提綱

1。 中國家庭與美國家庭的共性。

2。 中國家庭與美國家庭的個性。

both chinese families and american families are smaller than they used to be。 most young chinese parents have only one child， while young americans also prefer to have fewer children than their parents have。

however， unlike the chinese young people， many young american couples think it is not easy to get along with their parents。 they will leave their parents and have their own homes once they get married。 many of them would almost never live with their parents again。 it is a sad thing indeed。

things are different in china。 both the young and the old admit the problems between them， but they will try to understand each other。 besides， sons and daughters in china will feel that they must take care of their old parents while old people cannot help wanting to do some thing for their busy children。 so it is still very common in today's china to see married sons and daughters living with their parents。 however， china no longer has families where four generations live under the same roof。
