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 USA. The【S1】______
American society is a blend of native Americans as well as the large【S2】______
number of 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【S3】______
today recognizes four races in the country—Native American,
African-American, Asian and European American. The minority of【S4】______
United States includes Protestant Christians. The percentage of
Catholics is slightly less than the Protestants.
In addition to this, a number of people in the USA have also
adopted the other religions. In the early years American art and【S5】______
literature took most of their ideas and influences from European【S6】______
artists. During the late eighteenth century and the early nineteenth
centuries, American paintings primarily included landscapes and
portraits with a realistic style. The industrial revolution was【S7】______
responsible for new influences thereafter. American literature is also
known for development of popular literary genres such as ruthless
crime fiction.
As far as dance is concerning, USA has its share of dance【S8】______
varieties like the trademark Lindy Hop and its derivative Rock and
Roll. There is 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. But the majority of American【S9】______
population speaks English. Owing the large number of immigrants【S10】______
from 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。
