Basic American Values and Beliefs基本的美国价值观和信仰Individual Freedom and Self-Reliance个人自由和自力更生The earliest settlers came to the North American continent to establish colonies which were free from the controls that existed in European societies. They wanted to escape the controls placed on their lives by kings and governments,priests and churches,noblemen and aristocrats. To a great extent,they succeeded. In 1776 the British colonial settlers declared their independence from England and established a new nation,the United States of America. In so doing,they overthrew the king of England and declared that the power to govern would lie in the hands of the people. They were now free from the power of the king. In 1789,when they wrote the Constitution for their new nation,they separated church and state so that there would never be a government-supported church. Also,in writing the Constitution they expressly forbade titles of nobility to ensure that an aristocratic society would not develop.

上册第一单元ASomething in American---about the neighbors.1.美国人的内心深处具有一种酷爱探索新领域的气质。
我们渴求宽敞的场地，我们喜欢探索，喜欢制定规章制度，却不愿去遵守。
在当今时代，却很难找到一块空间，可以供你任意驰骋，又不必担心影响你的邻居。
There is such a place--- provoke a crackdown.2.确实有这样一个空间，那就是信息空间。
这里原本是计算机迷的游戏天地，但如今只要想像得到的各类人群应有尽有，包括少年儿童、轻佻的单身汉、美籍匈牙利人、会计等。
问题是他们都能和睦相处吗?人们是否会因为害怕孩子们躲在卧室里看网上的淫秽图片而将它封杀?The first order…state and drugstore3.首先要解决的问题是，什么是信息空间。
我们可以抛开高速公路、前沿新领域等比喻，把信息空间看作一个巨大的房地产。
请记住，庄园是人们智慧的结晶，是合法的、人工营造的氛围，它建立在土地之上。
在房地产业中，公园和商业中心、红灯区与学校、教堂、政府机构与杂货店都能区分开来。
In the same way…bêtter regulate it.4. 你可以用同样的方法把信息空间想像为一个巨大的、无边无际的虚拟房地产业。
其中有些房产为私人拥有并已租出，有些是公共场所；有的场所适合儿童出人，而有些地方人们最好避开。
遗憾的是，正是这些应该避开的地方使得人们心向神往。
这些地方教唆你如何制造炸弹、为你提供淫秽材料、告诉你如何窃取信用卡。
所有这些使信息空间听起来像是一个十分肮脏的地方。
正直的公民纷纷作出这样的结论：最好对它严加管理。
But before using…in Washington.5.但是，在利用规章制度来反击下流之举之前，关键是从根本上理解信息空间的性质。
恶棍并不能在信息空间抢走毫无提防之心的儿童；信息空间也不像一台巨大的电视机，向不情愿的观众播放令人作呕的节目。

美国人的价值观AmericanValues
美国人的价值观AmericanValuesAmericans sometimes fall into the trap of thinking that American values are universal ones. We can't always see that our values are actually typical American values. Instead, we assume the things Americans value are obviously what everyone should believe in.But we should remember the saying: when you "assume," you make an "ass" out of "u" and "me." We only need to look at what happens when Americans go as advisors to developing countries to see how wrong our assumptions can be. Some Americans go thinking they're sharing pearls of wisdom with the backward natives about how to get things done right. They assume that stimulating competition and giving financial incentives for individual achievement will naturally change people's behavior and lead to success. When their projects barely get off the ground, they can't understand what went wrong. They mistakenly think that people must just be lazy or that they don't really want a higher standard of living.So the advisors wind up getting discouraged and going home, grateful to be surrounded by hardworking Americans again.In these situations, we should realize that American values may come from America's unique position as the land of opportunity. We are brought up with the American dream that everyone can work hard and get ahead. But we should realize that in countries with a different history and different opportunities, other values might be more important, like avoiding conflict or saving face.。

Basic American Values and Beliefs基本的美国价值观和信仰Individual Freedom and Self-Reliance个人自由和自力更生The earliest settlers came to the North American continent to establish colonies which were free from the controls that existed in European societies. They wanted to escape the controls placed on their lives by kings and governments,priests and churches,noblemen and aristocrats. To a great extent,they succeeded. In 1776 the British colonial settlers declared their independence from England and established a new nation,the United States of America. In so doing,they overthrew the king of England and declared that the power to govern would lie in the hands of the people. They were now free from the power of the king.

Also,in writing the Constitution they expressly forbade titles of nobility to ensure that an aristocratic society would not develop. There would be no ruling class of noblemen in the new nation.最早的定居者来到北美大陆建立殖民地是自由的控制存在于欧洲社会。
他们想逃避国王和政府的控制他们的生活,牧师和教会、贵族和贵族中流行。
在很大程度上,他们成功了。
1776年,英国殖民定居者宣布脱离英国独立,建立了一个新国家,美利坚合众国。
这样做,他们推翻了英格兰国王,宣布权力治理将躺在人民的手中。
他们现在没有国王的力量。
在1789年,当时他们写宪法为他们的新国家,他们教会和国家分离,不会有一个由政府支持的教会。
同时,在写宪法明确禁止贵族头衔的,以确保一个贵族社会不会发展。
就没有贵族统治阶级的新国家。
The historic decisions made by those first settlers have had a profound effect on the shaping of the American character. By limiting the power of the government and eliminating a formal aristocracy,they created a climate of freedom where the emphasis was on the individual. The United States came to be associated in their minds with the concept of individual freedom. This is probably the most basic of all the American values. 历史决定的第一批移民有一个对美国人的性格的形成产生深远的影响。
通过限制政府权力和消除一个正式的贵族,他们创造了一个气候重点是个体的自由。
美国有关在他们心目中与个人自由的概念。
这可能是最基本的美国价值观。
Scholars and outside observes often call this value”individualism,”but many Americans use the word”freedom. ”Perhaps the word”freedom” is one of the most respected popular words in the United States today.学者和外部观察通常称之为价值“个人主义”,但许多美国人使用“自由这个词。
“也许“自由”这个词是当今美国最受尊敬的流行词。
There is,however,a price to be paid for this individual freedom:self-reliance. Americans believe that individuals must learn to rely on themselves or risk losing freedom. This means achieving both financial and emotional independence from their parents as early as possible,usually by age 18 or 21. It means that Americans believe they should take care of themselves,solve their own problems,and”stand on their own two feet. ”Tocqueville observed the Americans’belief in self-reliance 150years ago in the1830s:然而,要付出代价这种个人自由:自力更生。
美国人认为,个人必须学会依靠自己,否则可能失去自由。
这意味着实现金融和情感尽早独立于他们的父母,通常通过18岁或21。
这意味着美国人认为他们应该照顾自己,解决他们自己的问题,站在自己的两只脚。
“托克维尔观察美国人的信仰在150年前自力更生在1830年代:They owe nothing to any man,they expect nothing from any man;they acquire the habit of always他们欠什么人,他们期望从任何的人,他们总是获得的习惯considering themselves as standing alone,and they考虑自己是孤独,他们are apt to imagine that their whole destiny is in their own hands.容易想象,他们的整个命运在自己的手中。
Self-reliance is one of the most difficult aspects of the American character to understand,but it is profoundly important. It stands in direct contrast to dependence,which has a negative connotation to most Americans. By being dependence,not only do you risk losing freedom,but you also risk losing the respect of your peers.自力更生是最困难的一个方面了解美国人的性格,但它是极其重要的。
它直接依赖相比,大多数美国人的负面内涵。
被依赖,不仅你会失去自由,但你也可能失去你的同行的尊敬。
Equality of Opportunity and Competition机会平等和竞争A second important reason why immigrants have traditionally been drawn to the United States is the beliefs that everyone has a chance to succeed in the U.S. Generations of immigrants from the earliest settlers to the present day have come with the expectation. They have felt that because individual are free from excessive political,and social controls,they have a better chance for success. Particularly important is the lack of a hereditary aristocracy.第二个重要原因移民一直是吸引美国的信仰在美国每个人都有成功的机会一代又一代的移民从最早的定居者至今与期望。
他们觉得由于过度的政治、个人自由和社会控制,他们有一个更好的成功机会。
特别重要的是缺乏一个世袭贵族。
Because titles of nobility were forbidden in the Constitution,no formal class system developed in the United States. In the early years of American history many immigrants chose to leave the older European societies,believing that they had a better chance to succeed in America than in”the old country,”where their place in life was determined largely by the social class into which they were born.因为贵族头衔的宪法,禁止没有正式的等级制度在美国发展。
