Is it the sole aim of most Americans to make money and possess luxuries which could be called excessive? The majority of Americans would certainly deny this, though most feel proud to amass wealth and possessions through hard work. In the USA, about 90% of the population is well enough off to expect a brighter future. The USA still has one of the highest standards of living in the world, although, at the present times, 10% are below what the Government considered to be below the "poverty level. " While these under-privileged people receive help from the Government, they have no high hopes for their future. It is from this "underclass," and those who take advantage of it, that most of the violence springs—the violence, which is one of the least pleasant aspects of American society. Some believe that the only guarantee of security is wealth, and the only way out for the poor is to get money.
选项
答案
难道大多数美国人的唯一目标就是赚钱并拥有可以称之为过量的奢侈品吗?绝大部分美国人肯定会对此断然否定,尽管大部分人为自己经过努力而积聚的财富和财产感到自豪。在美国,大约90%的人口生活富足,期望更加光明的未来。美国生活水平仍为世界之最,目前,只有10%的人口生活在政府所谓的“贫困线”之下。这些贫穷人口虽然能获得政府的援助,但他们对未来并不抱过高期望。大部分的暴力正是源于这一“下层阶级”以及那些利用他们的人,而暴力是美国社会最令人不快的一面。有人认为,安全的唯一保障就是拥有财富,穷人唯一的出路就是获取金钱。
