a
(XX年華師大附中期中測試)most americans would have a difficult time telling you,specifically,what are the values which americans live by. they have never given the matter any thought.
over the years i have introduced thousands of international visitors to life in the united states. this has caused me to try to look at americans through the eyes of foreign visitors. i am confident that the values listed in this booklet describe most(but not all)americans,and that understanding these values can help you,the international visitor,understand americans.
it is my belief that if foreign visitors really understand how deeply these 13 values are ingrained in americans,they will then be able to understand 95% of american actions—actions which might otherwise appear“strange”,“confusing”,or“unbelievable”when evaluated from the perspective (aspect)of the foreigner’s own society and its values.
the different behaviors of a people or a culture make sense only when seen through the basic beliefs,assumptions and values of that particular group. when you encounter (meet)an action,or hear a statement in the united states which surprises you,try to see it as an expression of one or more of the values listed in this booklet.
【解題導語】 本文是一本書的序言。作者觀察到,很多外國游客對美國人的行為舉止感到很奇怪,而這是因為他們不了解美國人的價值觀。于是作者寫了一本小冊子介紹這些價值觀。了解了這些東西,人們就不會覺得美國人的行為“怪異、不可思議”了。
