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

在所有美國人的信念中,最基本,最強(qiáng)烈的信念可能就是崇尚個(gè)人自由。要理解美國人,最重要的也許就是了解他們對“個(gè)人主義”的熱愛。生活中他們很早就開始受到教育,把自己看成獨(dú)立的個(gè)體,對人生中自己的處境以及自己的前途命運(yùn)負(fù)責(zé)。美國人認(rèn)為自己的思想和行為高度個(gè)性化。他們不愿意被視為任何同質(zhì)群體的代表。如果確實(shí)加入群體,他們也認(rèn)為自己有特別之處,與同一個(gè)群體中的其他成員有著些許的差別。與美國人對個(gè)人主義賦予的價(jià)值緊密相關(guān)的是他們對個(gè)人隱私的重視。美國人認(rèn)為,人“需要有自己的時(shí)間”或者“有時(shí)間獨(dú)處”, 用來思考事情,或者恢復(fù)他們所消耗的心理能量。美國人很難理解那些總想與人結(jié)伴,不愛獨(dú)處的外國人。

Integrity and harmony are traditional Chinese virtues. “Harmony” is demonstrated in various aspects. In regard to interpersonal relations, traditional Chinese thoughts hold that “harmony is most precious” and “A family that lives in harmony will prosper”. A harmonious social environment can be created based on these principles. As for relations between human being and nature, people should learn to understand, respect and protect nature. Harmony is essential to interpersonal relations, relations between human beings and society, as well as between human beings and nature. Nowadays, harmonious development is still the way of running the country and managing talented personnel. With the development of China’s society, economy and culture, the idea of “harmony” goes even deeper into people’s hearts. China is on its way toward the goal of building a harmonious socialist society
