下面读文网小编为大家带来旅游英语阅读:美国闹鬼的五大景点,希望大家喜欢!
这家玩具反斗城的闹鬼故事已经被多家电视机报纸媒体报道了。所以这里的闹鬼故事可信度较高。.甚至所有在这里工作的雇员都一致认为的确闹鬼。
闹鬼的故事在几十年前开始。那是这里还是一片农田,这家玩具店也还没建起来。农场里的一名雇工爱上了老板的女儿。但是和电影电视里的经典情节不同。这位白富美没有回应这位屌丝的爱。屌丝眼泪流下来,拿起斧子去砍树泄愤。冲动是魔鬼,他砍脚上了。然后流血至死。安息吧……斧子不是你想玩,想玩就能玩的。
这位小伙没有安息,他在玩具反斗城里漫游。还好,他并没有像电影里面的情节,四处拿斧子砍人。他满足于玩玩具和人。很典型的事就是在早上店开门的时候,一颗球从货架之间弹走。或者货架上的货物被搞得很乱。或者有人一个人在卫生间里听到有人一进门就打开水龙头。这说明这位小伙是一个变态加洁癖,或者就是帮你打开水龙头而已。新时代的雷锋啊。

旧金山(San Francisco),又译“三藩市”、“圣弗朗西斯科”,美国加利福尼亚州太平洋沿岸港口城市,世界著名旅游胜地、加州(人口)第四大城市。旧金山临近世界著名高新技术产业区 硅谷(Silicon Valley),是世界最重要的高新技术研发基地和美国西部重要的金融中心。旧金山是一个度假的天堂。文史景观赏心悦目,餐馆佳肴令人惊喜,大饭店的富丽超乎想象。游客所期望的美国大城市中的戏剧表演和体育运动,这里也应有尽有。旧金山的最强音是移民们迸发出的热情,这是一个令人陶醉的文化混合体。下面读文网小编为大家带来旅游英语之美国旧金山英语简介,欢迎大家阅读!
the golden gate bridge is one of the most recognizable landmarks in the world.
even people who hate the usa love san francisco. it has an atmosphere of genteel (彬彬有礼的;有教养的)chic(高尚、别致) mixed with offbeat(不跟随时尚主流的;非传统的;特异的)innovation, and a selfeffacing(自我谦逊的)quality so blatantly missing from new york and la.
one of the usa's most attractive cities, san francisco's hilly streets provide some gorgeous glimpses of the san francisco bay and its famous bridges. this is a mosaic(马赛克式的东西)of a city, a big picture made from the colorful tiles of bustling chinatown, gay castro (旧金山一著名同性恋社区)and faux-hemian(法语词,故意表现得质朴童稚的)north beach.
san francisco covers the tip of a 30mi (50km) peninsula (半岛) in northern california, with the pacific ocean on its western side and the san francisco bay to the north and east. san francisco is just one of many cities in the bay area; others include oakland (east across the bay bridge), berkeley (just north of oakland) and san jose (an hour's drive southeast of san francisco, near the southern tip of the bay)。 marin county and the wine country lie to the north, across the golden gate bridge.
a newly restored street car on market street
the most touristed part of the city resembles a slice of pie, with van ness ave and market st making the two sides and the embarcadero the round edge of the pie. the steaming toppings of this homebaked slice are the classy shops around union square, the highrise financial district, the classy civic center, the down-and-out but up-and-coming tenderloin, swanky(华丽的) nob hill and russian hill, chinatown, north beach and the epicenter of tourist kitsch, fisherman's wharf(渔人码头)。 to the south of market st lies soma, an upwardly mobile warehouse zone of clubs and bars that fades in the southwest into the mission - the city's latino quarter - and then the castro, the center of gay life.
making a circuit of the 49-mile drive is a good way to check out almost all of the city's highlights(最有意思或精彩的部分)。 the route is well posted with instantly recognizable seagull signs, but a map and an alert navigator are essential. do yourself a favor and allow a whole day to complete the circuit.
greyhound is the only regular long-distance bus company operating to the city - all bus services arrive and depart at the transbay terminal in soma. amtrak's rail network connects the bay area with the rest of the continental us and canada. its main stations are in oakland and emeryville, both in the east bay. caltrain links san francisco with the peninsula and san jose; its depot is in soma.
旧金山坐落于加利福尼亚州西北部,美国西海岸中点,是太平洋沿岸仅次于洛杉矶的第二大港市,是加利福尼亚州的第三大城市。面积119平方公里,人口75万,是美国的第12位。大市区包括附近4个县和奥克兰、伯克利等城镇,面积7475平方公里。城市三面环海,座落在宽不足10公里的半岛北端,介于太平洋和圣弗朗西斯科湾之间,北临金门海峡。市域内丘陵起伏,有双峰山、戴维森山,最著名者为诺布山;沿海地带较为平坦。南流的萨克拉门托河和北流的圣华金河在城市附近汇合后,向西注入圣弗朗西斯科湾。
旧金山1776年为西班牙移民拓居地。1806年俄国在此设哨所,作为当时阿拉斯加的物资供应站。1821年属墨西哥。1846年在墨西哥战争中被美国人所夺取,并于1847年正式改名为旧金山,当时还只是一个居民490多人的小镇。1848年附近地区发现金矿,大批淘金者涌入,包括第一批中国"契约劳工"。1850年设市时,人口已增至2.5万人,成为贸易和为矿业服务的中心,附近地区的农业也有所发展。18邱年后随着横贯大陆铁路的通达和港区设施的逐步完善,城市迅速发展。1880年后开始向海湾以东地区扩展,形成若干卫星城镇,19世纪末,人口已达34万。1906年大地震时全城80%建筑被毁,后迅速重建。1914年巴拿马运河通航,港口日益繁荣,贸易量激增。第二次世界大战中,为军需物资的重要供应站。战后,工、商、金融、旅游服务业和市政建设均有较大发展,大市区由单一中心扩展为由旧金山、海湾东区(奥克兰)和圣何塞三大中心组成的城镇群。
旧金山居民民族构成复杂,其中非白种人约占总人口2/5以上,以黑人、华人、日本人、菲律宾人居多。来自世界各地的移民分区而居,形成语言文化、风俗习惯和宗教礼仪迥异的社区。如市中心黑人聚居的菲尔莫尔区,华人集中的"中国城",以及小大胶区(日本人)、卡尼区(菲律宾人)、北滩拉丁区(意大利人)、俄罗斯山区(墨西哥人)、萨特里-菲尔莫尔区(俄罗斯人)等。
旧金山是美国最有特色的城市之一,城区中心街道呈格子状向东西、南北伸展。住宅区房屋密集程度很高。马基特大街为最繁华的商业街,从市中心伸向城东北隅山腰;金门路一带高层建筑林立;蒙哥马利街及其附近地区为金融区,有"西部华尔街"之称,高52层的美洲银行大厦就耸立在这里。城东北部为主要住宅区,房屋盘山而建,街道迂回曲折,坡度较大,使用独特的交通工具缆车。伯克利为大学城,有加利福尼亚大学和各种科研机构。公共图书馆系统规模很大,并多教堂、剧院。滨海山城的优美景色,丰富多采的风情,以及金门公园、水上世界公园、海滩、电报山等旅游点,每年吸引数以百万计的游客。
旧金山的气候一年都是象春天一样的温暖,平均气温是20℃左右,在冬天也可以穿单衣到处游览。夏天潮气不大所以非常的舒服。因海风大的缘故,出门时应多带一件衣服。除了冬天这里一般不会下雨,晚上形成的浓雾早上就会全部消失。

迈阿密(Miami)是佛罗里达州第二大城市,位于佛罗里达半岛比斯坎湾。迈阿密是国际性的大都市,在金融、商业、媒体、娱乐、艺术和国际贸易等方面拥有重要的地位,也是许多公司、银行和电视台的总部所在。是文化的大熔炉,受庞大的拉丁美洲族群和加勒比海岛国居民的影响很大,与北美洲、南美洲、中美洲以及加勒比海地区在文化和语言上关系密切,因此有时还被称为“美洲的首都”。下面读文网小编为大家带来旅游英语之美国迈阿密英语简介,欢迎大家阅读!
it used to be called ‘god's waiting room'. and even today, if you mention miami to someone who hasn't been here or read about it lately, they might conjure up(回忆)a blurry memory of octogenarians(八十多岁)mingling poolside(游泳池边)while aunt sadie implored them to wait half an hour after eating before going into the water. today the old folks mingle with fashion designers, bikini(比基尼泳装)models, and a city that once had the highest murder rate in the us attracts more than 11 million tourists a year.
the greater miami area, which includes miami and miami beach as well as distinctive neighborhoods like little havana and little haiti, is a melting pot that america's founding fathers would be proud of. half of miami's population is hispanic(美籍西班牙人), and its immigrant communities focus on what's happening in havana or caracas(加拉加斯,委内瑞拉首都)as much as they follow events in washington dc, giving the city an international outlook. for the casual visitor this means a city peppered with the flavors of latin american food, language, music, politics and spirit.
miami is the most populated city in florida. it sits at the southeastern tip of the florida, the most southeastern state of the united states, bordered by the atlantic ocean to the east, the gulf of mexico to the west and the neighboring states of alabama and georgia to the north.
most visitors aren't here for miami itself, but rather to visit miami beach, an entirely separate municipality. miami is on the mainland, while the city of miami beach is on a thin barrier island about 4 miles east, across biscayne bay(比斯坎湾) - locals call it the billion dollar sandbar(十亿美元的沙坝)。 many of the beach's locals are imports from new york, people tired of sitting through five hours of snarled traffic on their way to the hamptons, who decided that miami beach made a lot more sense. they brought with them a fledgling art and culture crowd whose numbers included many younger artists.
the boundaries of ‘season' in miami - which used to be limited to winter - have been blurred by the huge number of people moving to the area and the stampede(蜂拥)of fashion and film shoots. but the most popular time to come here is still between december and may, when temperatures average between 16-30°c, and average rainfall is a scant couple of inches.

不知道有多少英语学习者就是卡在了英语单词这座大山上,读读接下来的内容,相信你对单词记忆会有新的认识
大家有个正确、地道的发音后,可能还会遇到其它的疑问,比如如何记住单词拼写以及它的意思。学了很久英语的人都觉得单词拼写不是很难,特别是语音比较好的人。难就难在怎么记住意思,以及把单词运用到口语当中表达各种意识,这几乎是学英语的最高要求了,就是达到运用自如嘛。这也导致市面上各种格式的单词记忆法横空出世,有些的也很好。能够帮助很多人考过很多考试,但大部分却达不到能在口腔中运用的问题(这前面也讲过了是基础不对的缘故),所以我们的单词量会比外国人多,运用的确少的可怜。
那么到底如何记单词了,首先我们要明确记单词的目的,如果为了能把单词运用到口腔中表达各种意思,以至真真正正掌握英语后再去考试,保证会事半功倍。那如果首先就是只以考试为目的去记忆单词的话,肯定是事倍功半的,哈哈,所以我是强烈支持前面那种记单词的目的。对于日常的两三千单词,我们要严格要求自己去记,记住先突破语音后再把所有单词反复朗读,要求是所有音标都能写出。这样的话,它的意思会很容易的记住,因为比较简单,见的次数多了,运用多了,就特别熟了(把新单词当作你的新女朋友,你想天天、时时刻刻见到它,嘻嘻)。对于长单词和意思比较多的,就要花比较多时间了,但首先要保证发音过关,能记住它的音,意思的话只有慢慢才能记住,抗遗忘曲线很有用,自己要找到自己的抗遗忘曲线,然后集中学习,这样的效果比较好,这方面的话市场上肯定有很多教英语单词记忆方面的书,大多是针对考试的。那么我也说一下不想学好英语只为了应付考试的记忆单词方法。
为了应付考试,肯定要进行强背。强烈要求自己记住(其实大脑及不情愿做这样的活,因为你要强迫的使用自己的大脑。),那么这里就要提到所谓的“激情”问题。市面上有的英语利用爱国,励志的宣传要求学英语的人要始终处于“激情和巅峰”状态,如果你的英语没学好,那是因为你不能保持激情,不能癫狂的学习。其实这是一种误导,因为人是有生理周期的,不可能时时处于巅峰状态,学英语也是,要当作技术活和体力活(主要是动嘴)的结合来学习,用科学的方法指导自己。学英语没什么大不了的,何必上升到爱国的角度,对吧?好的,下面我详细讲讲怎样强背单词。
单词记忆第一步:明确词汇量空间。
任何的词汇记忆,都不是所有英文单词的记忆。一定要根据需要,明确自己的词汇量空间。一般来说,目前的各种词汇辅导的书已经很多,不需要自己去样本采集。
教学大纲的要求。比如初中英语,大纲要求是词汇量2000左右。高考大纲要求英语词汇量是3000个左右。大学4级词汇量5000个左右。6级词汇量是6500个左右。
然而,对于较高层次英语水平的词汇量,不再局限地要求词汇量的绝对多少,对于研究生英语,记忆6级词汇已经够用。这时候,构词法的理解更为重要。至于考托福、GRE,10000词汇量是高分必备,而20000词汇量,有当然最好,没有也不影响阅读速度。建议选择简单明了的词汇表,看着要少而薄,每页单词list尽可能多。选择一本好的词汇表,可以说是决定了下一步的难度和信心耐心。这时候应该注意区分两种需求。买书的时候,书厚实一些、内容全一些丰富一些,让人觉得实在,也觉得对得起书价,从而决定购买。但是在看书的时候,书越薄、越简单,就越容易接受,降低畏难情绪。特别是词汇表,本身比较枯燥乏味,进度慢就不会有成就感,锐气也会被消磨掉。
单词记忆第二步:看单词。
先集中看单词,而不是背单词。这个阶段5-10天。
在最短的时间内,把所有常用的单词粗粗看一遍。不要刻意去记忆,但是要认真,调用心里的所有感觉来接受每一个生词。
一般来说,对于6级6500词汇量,可以一天用1-3小时看一遍。由于人都有本能集中注意陌生词汇,浏览速度将越来越快,等对所有的要记忆的单词有个整体感知后在进行具体的单词记忆安排。以这种方法突击,是最容易见效的。
但是,一定要用心。如果心早就飞到天外,仅仅机械地翻看这些书页,是一点意义都没有的。
之所以是看单词而不要念单词,这是为了突破阅读障碍。在阅读的过程中,往往是默读影响了阅读速度,而我们只需理解单词的意思即可。我们必须把视觉刺激整合起来,对应思维要求,达到飞速阅读的境界。看单词比背单词有效,这是因为看单词的时候比较轻松,不容易产生疲劳,此外,也很容易达到形成整体单词结构轮廓印象的速度。
单词记忆第三步:想单词(及时复习阶段)。
根据科学的遗忘曲线大致分为一下几种复习时间段。
第一次:10分钟后,在这个周期内,记忆者对于记忆材料的印象最为清晰,而后其渐渐变得模糊。所以,我们要在10分钟时间记忆了新信息后,可以不继续记忆新的东西,而是复习刚刚记忆过的东西。能过回想起百分之八九十的内容,再继续记忆新的内容。
第二次:1个小时以后,背了一个小时后又可过来进行全部的第二次复习,一般建议每天记单词的时间在1-2小时之内,不然大脑效率会大大降低。
第三次:1天后,进行记过内容的第3次复习,后面依次类推。
第四次:5天后,进行记过内容的第4次复习。
第五次:1个月后,进行记过内容的第5次复习。
第六次:3个月后,进行记过内容的第6次复习。
这是给大家的一个大概的时间复习安排,具体的可依据这个安排视个人而定。
从记忆单词的第二天开始,就需要想单词。这是调用记忆,让单词不断地从脑子里过。
想单词是系统学习法最关键的一步。可以按住英文单词想中文意思,也可以按住中文想英文意思。前者比较简单,后者比较难。
在刚开始的时候,可以按照词汇表来回忆单词。也就是让词汇表在脑海重现。
想单词的速度比看单词要快。对于记忆来说,看单词是“记”的过程,想单词是“忆”的过程。“记”“忆”的最有效结合就是“看”“想”结合。
在七天以后,想单词可以尝试自己分类归纳总结。这时候应该让单词概念和实际事物对应,形成image(形象)。
一般来说,归纳总结的依据是单词的区别和联系。找到单词的特点,形成概念群并捆绑,是深化记忆的最佳办法。建立单词之间的逻辑关系是很重要的。这样可能对一些几年没用过一次的单词都牢牢记得。
单词的特点有很多。发音,词根变化,外形差异,内容,使用范围等等,都是思考的重点,这部分的内容要自己去看书,有很多书中都有。
想单词将伴随英语学习的一生,在不断想的过程中就可以将单词放在句子中,自己造句表达自己的意识。但是在突击阶段过去以后,可以适当降低其深度和广度,减少想单词的时间。
最后希望你明确的一点是:学是为了使用,现学现用是最有效的学习方法。
使用是多方面多角度的。使用的过程,能真正发现单词和短语的特点和使用环境的需要,因此是树状结构细化的过程。也只有通过实际应用,网状联系才可能较准确较细致地铺开。实践是广泛联系的基础。
在刚开始的时候,由于条件不具备,我建议从大量的快速阅读开始(建议先打好发音基础关)。阅读材料不需要很难。为培养速度和感觉的时候,往往是越简单越好。初学者可以看一些国外儿童读物,趣味短文,如幽默和童话故事。
大量阅读可以迅速形成整体意念,并在单词的使用环境做出定格和校正。有前面的铺垫,阅读不存在单词的障碍,这时的注意力就应该转移到单词在文章中的映射上。
以上就是记单词的大致步骤,在这三大步骤的前提下还可进行比如图像记忆法,词根词缀记忆法,逆向记忆法等等适合你的方法。

摘要:美国东部时间6日零时(北京时间6日13时)刚过,美国新罕布什尔州迪克斯维尔山口的选民率先开始投票,这标志着四年一度的美国总统选举投票正式开始。你知道怎么用英语表达吗?
Voters in the tiny New Hampshire town of Dixville Notch cast their votes just after midnight (0500 GMT Tuesday), kicking off the quadrennial US presidential election on Tuesday.
The town is the first to cast ballots in the nation. Polling stations elsewhere are generally open between morning till nightfall on election day.
Only ten voters cast their ballots, and the result showed a tie, with President Barack Obama and Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney each garnering 5 votes.
美国新罕布什尔州小镇迪克斯维尔山口的选民周二零时率先开始投票,标志着四年一度的美国总统大选正式拉开帷幕。这一小镇是全国率先开始投票的地方,其他地方的投票站也都会在大选日的凌晨至傍晚开放。小镇目前只有十位选民投了票,而结果是不分胜负,现任总统巴拉克·奥巴马和共和党总统候选人米特·罗姆尼各获得5票。
【讲解】“美国总统大选”英文可以说成 US presidential election,election即指“选举”,动词为elect,文中cast their votes 指投票,还可以说成cast ballots。文中show a tie中的tie是指得分相同,不分胜负。我们再一起来看看其他一些与“美国总统大选”相关的词汇:opinion poll 民意调查、民意测验, the Republican Party 共和党,the Democratic Party 民主党,nominee 候选人, swing state 摇摆州,landslide 压倒性优势。

英语的听说读写是英语学习者的几个突破点,首先我们来聊聊如何快速的听懂英语。
说到听力,先要要讲讲母语和外语(特别是英语)学习的关系。我相信我们很多人都讲不出学习汉语的有效方法,因为母语是我们自然习成的。我们自出生起就经过了大量的、地道的语音和语调的练习(而且不断的输入与输出),所以不管是学语法还是其它内容都很很快的上手。但是学英语就不同,首先发音与汉语几乎相反,汉语的自然状态说话是拉长声带,而英语是缩短声带。其次没用经过自己有意识的大量的、地道的语音和语调的练习(而且不断的输入与输出),所以学其它的语法和听力以及写作就会相当头疼。在讲解这些东西的时候,根本就举不出例子,因为没有正确的英语系统(主要是声音系统)储存在脑海中。所以学语言最初和最重要的还是要落在声音上,那么声音就是由口腔发音来决定的。有人把学英语的高低分为了两种,初学者或英语水平很低的人都认为口语和词汇最难学,可是水平比较高的以及学了很久英语的学习者却认为听力最难。其实这个高手就是日常英语和表达自己的基本意思没问题(因为自己记了很多句子嘛,其实也就是一些反复使用的句子)。这种所谓的高手如果不把英语细致发音的方法学好的话,要想向上提升是相当难的(我曾经就属于这种高手)。记得有一次在外教夫妇家,有个英语老师和外教聊天几乎没问题,都能听懂。可是当外教夫妇俩对话时,那个大学英语老师却很多都听不懂他们说的什么。因为他们说的特别快(比正常英语快两到三倍),省略的音特别多,而当你和外教说话时,他会为了照顾你而说慢,再者就是就你的英语水平,他会自然的放慢。
其实听力的高低起点都在正确、地道的发音上。我们的耳朵是能接受任何声音的,当我们的口腔能发出某种声音的话,耳朵和大脑就会对这种声音特别的敏感,以及对与之相近的声音的敏感程度逐渐降低。这是有科学依据的,我们的大脑按照正确的指示控制口腔这个器官发出我们想要的声音,并通过耳朵再进入大脑形成立体记忆(大脑即记住了如何控制口腔发出这个声音,同时又敏锐的通过耳朵收集外界相近的声音),这个立体记忆的强度视口腔能发出的声音来决定。这就能解释,乡音越近的人互相易学会和听懂。如中国的东北话和北京话很靠近,所以我们男方的人几乎都能听懂北方的方言。可北方人听男方的方言就难了,特别是粤语,那就更难学了。所以当你的英语发音越地道、准确,你就最能听懂地道、准确的英语音,而后是不太准确的,最后是中国式英语(声带拉长英语)。但是如果你能讲一口中国式英语,那你就最能听懂中国式英语,然后才是与地道英语相近的英语,最后才是最地道的英语,敏感程度依次降低,捕捉声音的能力也依次降低。所以当我们有了最敏感的声音捕捉能力后,再辅以大量的练习,就会产生听力上质的飞跃。那么这个质的飞跃过程主要是靠我们的口腔完成的。口腔的发音运动产生的声音会进入大脑,但是这个过程是漫长的,反复的练习才能被大脑记准(声音之间的区别很小,所以要经过反复的练习),同时指挥口腔发出正确的声音(特别对于英语音,因为各个音之间差别很小,很细腻)。久而久之就会形成条件反射(声音就会与意识相结合)从而大脑能对这种音进行快速的处理和操作。在学英语之前我们的意识都是由母语控制的,而且这是无论如何都不会被第二种语言超过的,所以首先要进行意识转化,也是就先用母语表达这种意识,再用英语进行转换,这个转换过程是漫长而且由慢到快,最后我们的英语就能自己控制某些意识的表达了(绝不是全部的意识,因为外语是不能超过母语的),也就是达到能用英语思维了。达到能用英语思维后,就要大量的进行英语思维和思考,这种能力就会逐渐加强,能控制越来越多的意识了。这些英语能控制的所有意识都会储存在大脑中的英语语言系统中,平时我们的本能反应是首先用母语思维的,当你大脑有意识的要用英语表达时,才会进行英语思维和表达。当你能用英语表达越来越多的时候,相信你的听力也会快速高效的增长,而不是之前的听力很多很长时间却没有进展的原因。同时可运用听一段文字就暂停然后写下这段文字(可从简单的单词开始,而后句子再一段稍长的文字),这样可以超有效的提高你对英语这种声音的捕捉能力

摘要:每个人不会公开自己的成就和失败。别人在任何领域的成绩都只是自己的成绩。这和印度相比就不一样,在那里人们都会炫耀他们的财富,会告诉每个人自己的成就。
Q: What facts about the United States do foreigners not believe until they come to America?
问:有哪些事情是外国人没去美国之前不会相信的?
获得9.2k好评的答案@ Aniruddh Chaturvedi
Everyone is highly private about their accomplishments and failures. Someone's performance in any field is their performance alone. This is different compared to India where people flaunt their riches and share their accomplishments with everybody else.
每个人不会公开自己的成就和失败。别人在任何领域的成绩都只是自己的成绩。这和印度相比就不一样,在那里人们都会炫耀他们的财富,会告诉每个人自己的成就。
哪些事不去美国不知道
Rich people are thin/ well maintained, poor people are fat. This stems from the fact that cheap food is fatty, rich people don't eat cheap food — they tend to eat either home-cooked food which is expensive or eat at expensive / healthy places. Unfortunately, it is expensive to be healthy in America.
富人很瘦/保养很好,而穷人很胖。这个道理源于现实——因为廉价食品含油脂多,而富人不吃廉价食品——他们一般吃自己家里做的食品(这些食品很贵)或者在有高价健康食品的地方吃饭。不幸的是,在美国,健康是昂贵的。
Fat people are not respected much in society. Being fat often has the sameconnotations as being irresponsible towards your body. If you're thin (and tall, but not as much), people will respect you a lot more and treat you better. You will also receive better customer service if you're well maintained. This extends my previous point which mentioned that if you're thin, you're statistically likely to be rich. Reason why I know this is that I went down from being 210lbs to 148-150lbs. The way people started treating me when I was thin was generally way better than the way I was treated when I was fat. As a small example, the Starbucks baristas were much nicer to me and made me drinks with more care.
胖子在社会上不太受尊重,因为肥胖通常就暗示你对自己的身体不负责任。如果你很瘦(而且很高,但又不是特别瘦,特别高),人们就会更尊重你,对你更好。如果你保养得好,你就会受到更好地客户服务。这个道理就是我之前提到过的“如果你很瘦,那你一般来说就比较富裕”的延伸。我是在我从210磅减到148-150磅的时候明白这个道理的。我瘦的时候比我胖的时候受到的对待要好得多,举个简单的例子,星巴克里的咖啡员对我就比之前好得多,做饮料的时候也更用心。
Almost every single person in America has access to basic food, clothing, water and sanitation. I haven't been to states like Louisiana and cities like Detroit, but from what I can tell, nobody is scrambling for the basic necessities required for sustenance.
在美国,几乎每个人都能得到基本的食物、衣服、水和公共卫生。我还没去过路易斯安那之类的州以及底特律之类的城市,但是在我看来,没有人需要为了维持生计、为了基础的生活必需品拼死拼活。
Americans waste a lot of food. It is very easy to buy in bulk because it's so much cheaper and as a result a lot of wastage occurs.
美国人浪费了非常多的食物。因为太便宜所以大家都会大量购买,结果就是大量食物被浪费。
Obsession with coffee — Starbucks, Dunkin' etc is crowded with office-goers and students every morning. I don't understand why they can't drink or make coffee before leaving for work. Such a waste of money! ($5/day * 5days / week * 52weeks/year)!
对咖啡非常痴迷——每天早上星巴克和康恩都乐等店里都挤满了上班族和学生。我不明白他们为什么不在上班前去喝或者制作咖啡。太浪费钱了(5美元/天*5天/周*52周/年)!
Support towards the LGBT community — it's fairly normal to be part of the LGBT community; it's not considered a mortal sin if you like someone in your own gender or if you aren't comfortable being male/female/etc. Proof of this is the LGBT Pride Day held in every city.
对同性恋团体的支持——成为同性恋团体中的一员是很正常的事;如果你喜欢同性或者你觉得自己作为一个男人/女人哪里不对,都不会被认为是弥天大罪,证据就是每座城市都会举办LGBT骄傲日。
