The land of apple pie and baseball—the United States of America.
Of course we all know there is more to America than apple pie and
baseball. Here are more about the culture of the US. The American【S1】_________________
society is a blend of native Americans as well as the large number of【S2】_________________
immigrants from various countries like Ireland, Germany, Poland,
Italy, Latin America, Asia and Africa. Having gone through a phase of
race discrimination, the United States of America today recognizes four【S3】_________________
races in the country—Native American, African-American, Asian and
European American.
The minority of the US includes Protestant Christians. The【S4】_________________
percentage of Catholics is slightly less than the Protestants. In addition to
this, a number of people in the US have also adopted the other religions.【S5】_________________
In the early years American art and literature took most of their【S6】_________________
ideas and influences from European artists. During the late eighteenth
and the early nineteenth centuries, American paintings primarily
included landscapes and portraits with a realistic style. The Industrial【S7】_________________
Revolution was responsible for new influences thereafter. American
literature is also known for the development of popular literary genres
such as ruthless crime fiction.
As far as dance is concerning, the US has its share of dance【S8】_________________
varieties like the trademark Lindy Hop and its derivative Rock and Roll.
There are also the modern square dance and the modern dance. In
addition to this, there is a wide influence of several African-American dances. The
United States of America does not have an official
international language as such. However the majority of American【S9】_________________
population speaks English. Owing the large number of immigrants from【S10】________________
Spain, Spanish is the second-most common language in America.
【S4】
选项
答案
minority—majority
解析
语义错误。minority的意思是“少数人”,而majority的意思是“大多数人”,根据后文中“天主教徒的比例略小于新教徒”可知,该处应该表示大多数美国人信奉新教,故将minority改为majority。
