1、5条美国传统双语美文5条美国传统双语美文美国兄弟会举世出名的放纵不羁向来让北边的加拿大望尘莫及。平常聚会high点就算了，连入会测试都high出了水准，也难怪，这人要是测试high不了，以后聚会怎么玩!接下来，我给大家准备了5条美国传统双语美文,欢迎大家参考与借鉴。5条美国传统双语美文OVERTHETOPFRATINITIATIONS/出格的兄弟会入会测试USfraternitieshaveareputationofbeingmuchwilderthanthosefoundnorthoftheborderinCanada.Notonlyarethepartiescrazier,butthein

6、：大型体育赛事前的停车场大派对。只在观赛经过中酣畅还不够，美国体育粉可要赛前几小时先开车来一场露营，每个人都涂成本人支持的球队颜色，喝着啤酒，弄点烧烤，音响在一旁震耳欲聋，真是热闹。相比加拿大的典型举止文静礼貌美国的这项传统在邻国有点不受待见。BLOWN-UPNEWSREPORTS/虚张声势的新闻报道AfewyearsagoIwasinMexicoforavacationwithfriends,andthehostelthatwewerestayinginonlyhadafewEnglish-speakingAmericanchannels.Oneofthosechannelswasthein

8、ews,Icouldnthelpfeelthatthewholethingwasbeingblownupwaymorethanitneededtobe.OnlyinAmerica.话讲几年前，我和朋友在墨西哥度假，住在一家只要几个零星美国英语频道的小旅店，那些频道里就包含臭名昭著的福克斯新闻台，十天来，我们这群人回到旅店就打开福克斯新闻，追踪齐默曼一案(译者按：齐默曼以正当防卫为名枪杀黑人青年马丁)。这一案件持续数周成为全美新闻头条，固然审讯结果匪夷所思，福克斯也严密跟进案件进展中的每个细节，但我仍然觉得整个报道有些虚张声势。可这就是一大美国特色啊!THERIGHTTOBEARARMS/持有武
