While the leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher social position and mands greater respect in the munity than the mon laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of some sort.美國(guó)文化的一個(gè)特點(diǎn)，并且?guī)缀醭蔀槊绹?guó)的一項(xiàng)傳統(tǒng)的是對(duì)自我奮斗的人的尊敬――通過自己的努力到達(dá)頂峰，通常是白手起家。然而公司，企業(yè)的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)，社會(huì)地位很高，在社區(qū)中獲得比一般工人或工廠技術(shù)人員更多的尊敬的大學(xué)教授，都不愿說出自己的父親在美國(guó)是從一個(gè)農(nóng)民，工人這類人開始奮斗的。This attitude toward manual (體力) labor is now still seen in many aspects of American life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only fortable but even luxuriously (豪華地) furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children。 yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward, furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery. On the contrary, the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes. A professional may talk about washing the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house. His son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to pay for his education.
