Cultural Notes 文化注释
美国是个移民国家,有全世界各种族的人,常被称为 melting pot(大熔炉)或更确切地被称为 salad bowl(色拉钵),因为各种族的人既是美国人,同时还保留了一些本族的文化特点。其中有欧洲白人(whites)、黑人(blacks)、拉美移民(the Hispanic)、印第安人(Indians)、东方人(Orientals)等等。这使得美国人在皮肤、头发及眼睛的颜色上彼此呈现出很大的差异。以白人为例,其头发就有 bolnde, brown, black, red 等,眼睛有 blue, brown, gray, green 等。白人女子可分为 a blonde (金发女子),a brunette (黑发女子),a redhead (红发女子) 等。? |
