3、always flown it outside on July 4.Here in Paris it hangs from a fourth-floor balcony visible from the street.Ive never seen anyone look up,but in my minds eye an American tourist may notice it and smile,and a French passerby may be reminded of the date and the occasion that prompt its appearance。I h

4、ope so.2 For my expatriated family，too，the flag is meaningful，in part because we dont do anything else to celebrate the Fourth。People dont have barbecues in Paris apartments,and most other Americans I know who have settled here suppress such outward signs of their heritage or they go back home for t

6、 they have learned or havent learned from their parents.July 4 is one of the times when the American in me feels a twinge of unease about the great lacunae in our childrens understanding of who they are and is prompted to try to fill the gaps.Its also a time,one among many,when my thoughts turn more

26、眼，但在我脑海中，我想象着美国游客或许会注意到它并莞尔一笑，而法国路人会从中想起促使这面国旗出现的相关日期和原因。诚愿如此。2 对我们这个旅居国外的家庭来说，这面国旗之所以意义深远，部分是因为我们没有其他任何活动来庆祝独立日。巴黎人不在公寓里烧烤，我认识的大多数在此定居的美国人并不张扬他们的这种传统，他们宁可回国消夏来为自己加油打气。3 我的孩子们觉得悬挂国旗很酷，我也喜欢这种做法，因为它让我们家有机会就我们的公民身份问答一番.我们夫妻离开美国长达 9 年，两个孩子一个 11 岁一个 9 岁，所以美国历史对他们来说,很大程度上要么是从父母那里已经学到的知识,要么是还没学到的知识。每到类似 7

27、月4 日这样的日子，我的美国心便感到忐忑不安,因为孩子们对他们身份的认同存在巨大的空白，所以我想尽力填补这些空白。这也是很多场合中的一个，让我的思想更全面地考虑在异国文化氛围中养育子女的利与弊.4 路易丝和亨利法语都说得很流利.学校里使用法语教学，他们的朋友大多数是法国人.他们在法语和英语之间切换自如,不费吹灰之力,极少把两种语言搞混。这当然很棒。我们远离故国，相隔千山万水，也不是什么问题。每天我们夫妻俩都为儿女不用面对的一切坏事而心怀感激。美国校园枪战对我们孩子来说是避之不及的社会愚蠢行为的极好反面教材。5 当然了,我们也希望能提醒他们身为美国人而自豪的原因，想方设法告诉他们这样做意义何在。

28、在远离祖国的情况下这样做不容易，距离并不是和祖国相隔有多远的问题。有时我想我们给孩子们讲的故事听起来一定很像伊索寓言或拉封丹寓言，都是些没有确凿时间地点的神话。但无论如何，毕竟还能做点联系，学点东西。6 去年夏天，我们和我弟弟一家在一起度过了一周，他们住在马萨诸塞州的康科德城.我们带孩子们参观北桥，让他们看一眼美国独立战争的遗址。我们碰巧赶上了一个表演，表演重现了触发大战的小规模战斗的情景.演出中男士都戴着三角帽，而女士戴着有带子的帽子。这也许恰恰让这些瞪大眼睛的孩子们加深了美国历史虚幻性的印象。7 6个月后,我们吃饭时在饭桌上回忆起参观的情景，我问路易丝美国独立战争是怎么一回事.文翻译综合教

30、，我们知道小孩子们都掌握了哪些知识。路易丝告诉我们法国大革命发生在启蒙运动末期，那时人们已经懂得很多道理，其中一个道理就是人们不需要国王告诉大家该想什么、该做什么。还有一次,亨利问为什么要在一个人名字后面加上“小”，或者加上“二世”,或者“三世”，路易丝帮我回答了这个问题，举了路易十四、路易十五和路易十六几位国王的例子，亨利立刻机敏地回以亨利八世的例子。9 我不能说我很担心对孩子们凡事都以欧洲作为参照系有多少担忧.让他们学习美国短得可怜的历史，了解托马斯杰斐逊、富兰克林罗斯福是谁来日方长。他们现在对比尔克林顿的了解已经比我希望的要多了。10 如果说我对这一切产生共鸣，也许是因为我们家在 195

31、4 年就迁往巴黎，当时我才 3 岁。我大部分小学时光都在法国学校里度过。我不记得在学校或是在家里学了多少关于美国的知识.我记得很清楚的是有一天下午妈妈把我从学校里领出来去看电影，电影名叫俄克拉荷马！。我记得那看起来似乎是个非常遥远的地方：阳光普照,人们跳着方形舞,还有顶盖饰有流苏的萨里式游览马车.此后很长时间里阴险的贾德弗赖成了邪恶的化身。通过电影，巴黎早就熟悉了像牛仔和印第安人这样代表美国的陈词滥调。我还让一位祖辈给我寄了一顶戴维克罗克特式的帽子，这样，我就可以在蒙巴纳斯二战后灰蒙蒙的背景下重现当年的传奇了。11 尽管我的孩子们在大概像我小时候那样的岁数时住在同样的地方,他们作为外国侨民的经

32、历和我的大不相同.撇开特别的美国历史的叙述不谈，美国文化不仅仅属于他们，还属于他们的法国同学。他们听的音乐不是“美国的”就是“欧洲的”，但经常很难加以区别。我小时候法国小孩看起来就是法国小孩，但路易丝和亨利还有他们的同学穿着打扮和美国的同龄人很像，尽管美国小孩可能因为穿的是“极点牌的时装，看上去更加毛茸茸一些。20 世纪 50 年代，每两年我回美国探亲一次，要花 5 天时间横跨大洋，然后在美国呆上一个月。如今我们乘飞机文翻译综合教程四的内容能够给您的工作和学习带来便利同时也真诚的希望收到您的建议和反馈这将是我们进步的源翻译综合教程四的全部内容课文翻译综合教程四课文翻译综合教程四课文翻译综合教程
