My dorm is nice to live in. For
example, it has a very convenient location. It is
close to everything
on campus. It only
takes 5 minutes to walk to my classes, 8 minutes
to the library, 15 minutes to
the
swimming pool, and only 2 minutes to the
cafeteria. What
’
s more, there are great facilities in
the
building.
There
is
a
laundry
room,
a
gym,
a
TV
room,
and
even
an
ATM
machine.
Most
importantly, I like my
roommates. We get along very well, and we have a
lot of fun together. In
one word, I
love my dorm.
Translation
10
在所有美国人的信念中，
最基本、最强烈 的信念可能就是崇尚个人自由。要理解美国人，最
重要的也许就是了解他们对“个人主义
”
的热爱。生活中他们很早就开始受到教育，
把自己
看成
独立的个体，
对人生中自己的处境以及自己的前途命运负责。
美国人认为自己的思 想和
行为高度个性化。
他们不愿被视为任何同质群体的代表。
< p>如果确实加入了群体，他们也认为
自己有特别之处，
与同一个群体中的其他成员有着些许的差别。
与美国人对个人主义赋予的
价值紧密相关的是他们对个人隐私的重视。美国人认为，人“需要有自己的时间”或者“有
时间独处”
，用来思考事情，或者恢复他们所消耗的心理能量。美国人很难理解那些总想与
人结伴、不爱独处的外国人。
