Part Four: Monologue
Americans love big cars. They buy huge trucks and sport utility vehicles (SUVs) that could go across a desert and back to take their kids to school. It really is a horrible thing for the environment, since these vehicles produce more pollution and use more gas than smaller vehicles. For Americans, however, cars are more than just a way to get somewhere. They’re symbols of wealth, and sometimes, the one place they can get away from everything. Driving in their cars by themselves, they don’t have to think about their work, family, love-life, or anything else but the open road. They put some good music on the car stereo, turn on the air conditioner, roll up the windows, and just drive.
美国人对大车情有独钟。他们购买卡车或是运动型车辆,这样既能横穿沙漠,回来又可以接送小孩读书。但对于环境状况来说是无法想象的,因为这些车型造成的污染比小型车更严重,燃烧的汽油也更多。对于美国人来说,汽车不仅仅是外出的一种工具,更是财富的象征,有时,也是他们可以抛开一切事务而独处的地方。自己开着车可以不必去想工作、家庭、情感生活或其他事情,只需注意那宽阔的道路。打开车内的音响,放点音乐,开点空调,把窗玻璃摇上,就这样开着车。

Part Four: Monologue
The public transportation systems in most big cities in America are very good. New York, especially, has one of the largest and most useful subway and bus systems in the world. Public transportation helps to cut down on pollution and traffic. In big cities, with so many people, this is a very important problem. However, Americans do love their cars. The average family has two. So much more money goes into building roads, than new subway or train lines. In some cities, like Atlanta, this has meant a quick increase in pollution and traffic congestion as its population has grown.
在美国的大城市里,大多数都有很齐全的公共交通系统。尤其是纽约拥有的市内地铁和公交车系统就是全世界最大、利用率最高的地区之一。公共交通系统可以减少污染和缓解交通负担。对于人口众多的大城市,这是个非常重要的问题。然而,美国人是爱车的。平均每个家庭的小汽车拥有量为两辆。因此用于修建公路的资金往往比用于修建新的地铁线和火车线路的资金多得多。在象亚特兰大这样的一些城市,随着人口的增加,也同时意味着污染和交通阻塞的日益严重。

Part Four: Monologue
The Internet has changed the way Americans do many things. Increasingly, Americans use the Internet to shop, bank, keep in touch through email and chatting, get their news, and research topics of interest. Websites such as ebay let them pursue hobbies such as coin or stamp collecting. You can even get radio and television shows on the internet. Email is still the most common use of the internet, and its uses are growing everyday. People joke that soon the only reason to leave your house will be to find a wife, since you’ll be able to do everything else over the Internet.
因特网改变了美国人做事的方式。美国人越来越多地使用因特网购物、处理银行业务、用电子邮件和聊天的方式和别人保持联系,获得新闻,以及对感兴趣的题目做研究。比如ebay这样的网站就可以使人们继续自己收集硬币或集邮的嗜好。通过因特网你还可以收听和看电台电视节目。电子邮件也仍是人们使用因特网最普遍的用途之一,而且它的使用每天还在增加。人们开玩笑说不久之后人们离家出走的唯一一个原因只可能是去寻求自己的另一半,因为除此之外其他一切都可以在网上进行。
