问题    The culture of the United States is a Western culture originally
   influenced by European cultures. It has been developed since long before the 【S1】______
   United States became a country with its own unique social and cultural
   characteristics such as dialect, music, arts, social habits, cuisine and
   folklore. Today, the United States of America is an ethnically and racially
   diverse country in a result of large-scale immigration from many different 【S2】______
   countries throughout its history.
   Its chief early influences came from English and Irish settlers of
   colonial America. British culture, due to colonial ties to Britain that spread 【S3】______
   the English language, legal system and other cultural inheritances, had a
   formal influence. Other important influences came from other parts of 【S4】______
   western Europe, especially Germany, France and Italy.
   Original elements also act a strong role, such as the invention of 【S5】______
   Jeffersonian Democracy. Thomas Jefferson’s Notes on the State of Virginia
   was perhaps the first influenced domestic cultural critique by an American 【S6】______
   and a reactionary piece to the prevailing European consensus that America’s
   domestic originality was degenerate. Prevalent ideas and ideals which
   evolved domestic such as national holidays, unique American sports, 【S7】______
   military tradition and innovations in the arts and entertainment gives a strong 【S8】______
   sense of national pride among the population as a whole.
   American culture includes both conservative and liberal elements,
   military and scientific competitiveness, political structures, risk take and 【S9】______
   free expression, materialist and moral elements. Despite of certain 【S10】______
   consistent ideological principles (e.g. individualism, egalitarianism, and
   faith in freedom and democracy), American culture has a variety of
   expressions due to its geographical scale and demographic diversity.
