The United States of America

The United States of America (also referred to as the United States, the U.S., the USA, or America) is a federal constitutional republic comprising fifty states and a federal district. The country is situated mostly in central North America, where its forty-eight contiguous states and Washington, D.C., the capital district, lie between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, bordered by Canada to the north and Mexico to the south. The state of Alaska is in the northwest of the continent, with Canada to the east and Russia to the west across the Bering Strait. The state of Hawaii is an archipelago in the mid-Pacific. The country also possesses several

territories in the Caribbean and Pacific.

At 3.79 million square miles and with over 310 million people, the United States is the third or fourth largest country by total area. It is one of the world's most ethnically diverse and multicultural nations, the

product of large-scale immigration from many countries. The U.S. economy is the world's largest national economy.

The national flag of the United States consists of thirteen equal horizontal stripes of red (top and bottom) alternating with white, with a blue rectangle in the canton (referred to specifically as the "union") bearing fifty small, white, five-pointed stars arranged in nine offset horizontal rows of six stars (top and bottom) alternating with rows of five stars. The fifty stars on the flag represent the 50 states and the 13 stripes represent the thirteen colonies that rebelled against the British monarchy and became the first states in the Union. Nicknames for the flag include the "Stars and Stripes", "Old Glory," and "The Star-Spangled Banner" (also the name of the national anthem).

Washi(来自:WwW.smhaida.Com 海达 范文 网:介绍美国的英语作文)ngton, D.C., formally the District of Columbia and commonly referred to as Washington, "the District", or simply D.C., is the capital of the United States, filled with major museums and monuments, along with

multi-cultural communities.

New York is the most populous city in the United States and one of the most populous metropolitan areas in the world. New York exerts a significant impact upon global commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment. As the home of the United Nations Headquarters, it is an important center for international affairs and is widely deemed the cultural capital of the world. The city is also referred to as New York City or the City of New York to distinguish it from the state of New York, of which it is a part. Many districts and landmarks in New York City have become well known to outsiders. Times Square, iconified as "The Crossroads of the World", is the brightly illuminated hub of the Broadway theater district, one of the world's busiest pedestrian intersections, and a major center of the world's entertainment industry. The city hosts many world renowned bridges, skyscrapers, and parks.

Los Angeles is one of the most populous metropolitan areas in the world and the second largest in the United States. Nicknamed the City of Angels, Los Angeles is a world center of business, international trade, entertainment, culture, media, fashion, science, technology, and education. As the home base of Hollywood, it is known as the "Entertainment Capital of the World", leading the world in the creation of motion pictures, television production, video games, and recorded music.

The United States is extraordinarily diverse in its array of attractions. There are various places of interest in the county, such as Niagara Falls, Yellowstone National Park, Statue of Liberty, Times Square, The White House, Central Park, Grand Canyon, the Golden Gate Bridge, etc.

Out of all of America's symbols, none has proved more enduring or evocative than the Statue of Liberty. This giant figure, torch in hand and clutching a stone tablet, has for a century acted as a figurehead for the

American Dream.

The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate, the opening of the San Francisco Bay onto the Pacific Ocean. It connects the city of San Francisco on the northern tip of the San Francisco Peninsula to Marin County. It has become an internationally

recognized symbol of San Francisco and California.

The United States is a multicultural nation, home to a wide variety of ethnic groups, traditions, and values. Aside from the now small Native American and Native Hawaiian populations, nearly all Americans or their ancestors immigrated within the past five centuries. The culture held in common by most Americans—mainstream American culture—is a Western culture largely derived from the traditions of European immigrants with influences from many other sources, such as traditions brought by slaves from Africa. More recent immigration from Asia and especially Latin America has added to a cultural mix that has been described as both a homogenizing melting pot and a heterogeneous salad bowl in which immigrants and their descendants retain distinctive cultural characteristics.

篇二：美国中英文简介

美国中英文简介

美利坚合众国是一个宪法联邦共和国，主要位于北美。它拥有50个州和一个联邦区,它同样可以称作the United States, the U.S., the U.S.A., the U.S. of A., America, the States, or (poetically) Columbia。

自从20世纪中叶，即二战结束后开始，美国已主宰全球经济、政治、军事、科学、科技及文化领域。尤其在冷战过后，正因它的诸多影响，美国被公认为超级强国。

在1776年7月4日，当代表13个英国殖民地的第二届全国会议采纳了独立宣言之时，标志着英国的统治宣告结束，而自主统治即将崛起。

1789年见证了美国政府结构的转变，以美国宪法替代了联邦契约。这一天，50个州采用了这份宪法，并普遍认为这一天是各个州联合在一起，成为了美利坚合众国中的一份子。

The United States of America is a constitutional federal republic, situated

primarily in North America. It comprises 50 states and one federal district, and has several territories with differing degrees of affiliation. It is also referred to, with varying formality, as the United States, the U.S., the U.S.A., the U.S. of A., America, the States, or (poetically) Columbia.

Since the mid-20th century, following World War II, the United States has emerged as a dominant global influence in economic, political, military,

scientific, technological, and cultural affairs. Because of its influence, the U.S. is considered a superpower and, particularly after the Cold War, a hyperpower by some.

The country celebrates its founding date as July 4, 1776, when the Second Continental Congress—representing thirteen British colonies—adopted the Declaration of Independence that rejected British authority in favor of self-determination.

The structure of the government was profoundly changed in 1789, when the states replaced the Articles of Confederation with the United States Constitution. The date on which each of the fifty states adopted the

Constitution is typically regarded as the date that state "entered the Union" to become part of the United States.

1. How do you see Dreiser’s naturalism influencing his work in Sister

Carrie? (What is Naturalism? What kind of person is Carrie?) Your answer should be at least 300-word long.

Experience, laughter, anger, sorrow and happiness of Carrie's life reflected the real life of lower level people in American society. Dreiser revealed the darkness of American society and evil in the rough language of working-class people, Dreiser used the rough language than magnificent words more appropriate, more can cause readers shocking.

Dreiser for Carrie life and destiny of the description is certainly not just realism by exposing the social evils, but in order to confirm the humanity in with nature in the struggle to this view that the result is always failure, in order to explain about the fate of strength, and showing that the forces of nature play a leading role in the lives of the people.

Carrie was edified by flashy neon and ugly neon surrounding in Chicago, gradually, she died out simple personality, she became a famous actor in New York by the expense of the hue, and she was into the high society. Before because of the helpless life, she became the los of wife, but she had a the greater desire, so she eloped to New York with Hector, after long she became a red star, and she abandoned him because Hector was very the fall.

that we did not say her to go up against that she abandoned Hector ward. After all, she was unable to take responsibility for a home.

Some people said that Carrie is an ungrateful person ,and she was not a concentrated person, so she lived a empty life at last. I think that no one can evaluate her, because New York was full of power ,envy and terror, people can not to be with the milk of human kindness, or it will get themselves pieces.

To a postwar American as the background of the novel, the surface described love story in the upper-middle class of the United States in the 1920s, in fact true recorded at a time when the social culture and young people faced the "American dream" of disillusionment perplexed.

"The great gatsby" outlined experience and ideas of the "blundering 20 century" people. The author successfully portrayed a vivid and soul figure-- Gatsby, and he lived in the United States than gates postwar economic boom, not only experienced "jazz era" superficial prosperity, but also did feel it with crisis. By that time, the American economy was very development, it brought an unprecedented prosperity to the U.S..

Gates was a person who lived in the dream, he was in the dream from beginning to end. He would rather live in a dream, and do not want

to return to real life, his dreams was the fire. Eventually he ended up dead. The author reflected the society's significant problems with gates dream-- hypocritical society of the upper, the sins of money, the morbid of social phenomenon, asset class advocacy of "American dream" the illusion of sex and jazz age mourning. The novel was given the enormous irony and attacked to the 20 century of social atmosphere and the success of American dream.

It's not hard to find the character image. Its destiny tragedy was a double meaning, Gates was not only this that reflected reality and fantasy conflict in the society, but also is the typical representative of the American dream. The novel had to say about the condition of the American dream in the 1920s, because the capitalist society was extremely cruel, ruthless, hypocrisy, dirty and ugly, social and moral value completely fallen by the United States, at that time its expression was extremely cynicism, greed and blind pursuit of pleasure. It eventually led to the destruction of the American dream. Eph Scott Fitzgerald's novel criticized social features of the extreme.
