美國(guó)文化脫口秀 第110期:不同地區(qū)的美國(guó)人

美國(guó)人是什么樣的?你覺(jué)得美國(guó)人是什么樣的?今天潘吉和Jenny要和你聊聊人們不同地區(qū)的美國(guó)人的刻板印象，比如紐約人、加州人、南方人或是西部牛仔都是怎樣的?留言告訴我們你對(duì)美國(guó)人的印象是什么吧!

聽(tīng)力提示：

1. stereotype 模式化的印象

2. The American South 美國(guó)南方:

slow, friendly, enjoy life, "Southern hospitality", Southern twang

緩慢，友好，生活至上，熱情好客，南方口音

3. They talk slowly, they move slowly, some people think slowly. But they're friendly. 他們講話慢，行動(dòng)慢，有些人思維也很慢。但是他們對(duì)人很友好。

4. "I'm from the South. We talk like this." 我是南方人，我們說(shuō)話就是這樣的。

5. But Florida has a special reputation. Florida has a reputation that it's full of crazy people.

佛羅里達(dá)有自己獨(dú)特的名聲，就是瘋子比較多。

6. New England (Northeast) 紐英格蘭地區(qū)(Massachusetts, New York, Boston, etc.):

quite serious, hard-working, sophisticated, snobbish

有點(diǎn)嚴(yán)肅，工作認(rèn)真，成熟世故，高傲勢(shì)力

7. They're very busy all the time; they don't have time to slow down like Southern people. 他們總是很忙，沒(méi)時(shí)間像南方人一樣慢生活。

8. You can't take it easy. 你不能放松自己。

9. West Coast 西海岸:

rich, relaxed, innovative

有錢(qián)，放松，有創(chuàng)新意識(shí)的

10. So in Califonia, people have a lot of money, but they're not as busy as in New York. They're much more relaxed. 加州的人很有錢(qián)，但是不像紐約人那么忙。

11. They are doing things, like they are making money, so I think they're busier than the Southerners, you know, by reputation. But they are not uptight like East Coast people.

他們還是干活兒的，比如他們會(huì)賺錢(qián)啊，所以我覺(jué)得他們比南方人要忙，你知道他們有這樣的名聲在外。但是他們不像東海岸的人那樣神經(jīng)緊繃。

12. Yeah, because Silicon Valley is in California too. 是啊，而且硅谷也在加州啊。

13. Right, so they also feel that they're the center of America culture. 對(duì)，對(duì)已他們也覺(jué)得自己是美國(guó)文化的中心。

14. They both think that way. 他們兩邊都這么覺(jué)得。

15. The Mid-West 中西部地區(qū):

simple, traditional, nice

簡(jiǎn)單，傳統(tǒng)的，人很好

16. Some of that is close, but the Mid-West is more towards the north. (西部和中西部)有些地區(qū)很近，但是中西部地區(qū)更靠北。

17. Like people in New York don't care about the Mid-West. 比如紐約人就不在中西部地區(qū)的人啊。

18. And the north part of the Mid-West, they're very much like the Canadians, like Minnesota, that kind of the place.

中西部地區(qū)靠北的人和加拿大人很像，像明尼蘇達(dá)州之類(lèi)的地方。

19. You guys make fun of them ALL THE TIME. 你們一直拿(加拿大人)開(kāi)玩笑啊!

20. They're easy-going, so they're easy to make fun of. 他們很隨和，所以拿來(lái)開(kāi)玩笑也不會(huì)生氣。

21. That's what we think of the Canadians. They are too nice. 這就是我們對(duì)加拿大人的印象，他們?nèi)颂昧恕?/p>

22. And their police ride horses. I think that's pretty funny. 而且他們的警察還騎馬，這個(gè)太搞笑了。
