中国梦与美国梦

我们在中学的时候就知道在美国有一个叫马丁路德金的民权运动领袖，

他的那句

“我有

一个梦想”传遍了世界。让世人知道美国梦的力量。关于美国梦的话题太多了。但是，正如

白岩松所说的，

“一定要知道，不仅仅只有一个英文版的‘我有一个梦想’

。在遥远的东方，

在一个几千年延续下来的中国，

也有一个梦想。

他不是宏大的口号，

并不是在政府那里存在，

他是属于每一个非常普通的中国人，而它用中文写成‘我有一个梦想’

”

。

美国梦的说法由来已久，

它支撑着美国从最初的十三块殖民地一步步发展成为当今唯一

的超级大国。

300

年前，当英格兰移民乘坐着五月花号横穿大西洋来到马里兰，寻找一块清

教徒能居住的“净土”时，

“美国梦”

(American Dream)

已开始悄然萌芽——美国给了全世

界每一个人均等的机会，

只要努力奋斗，

都可以实现自己的梦想。

人人都有成功的机会；成

功取决于自己的才能和努力，

而不是家世和背景；

人人都拥有平等的权利；

人人都有信仰的

自由。这就是美国梦，只有在美国这片年轻的土地上才能生长起来的梦。

美国梦是希望之梦、成功之梦、平等之梦、幸福之梦。

在拥有五千年历史的中国面前美国的确太年轻。

五千年我们的祖国历尽沧桑，

有过辉煌

也受过屈辱。

但从未放弃前行的脚步，

因为在每个中国人心中都有一个人中国梦。

中国梦在

近代表现的最为明显，

逐渐走向成熟。

因为近代我们的祖国开始受到列强的侵略，

千年文明

古国遭到沉重的打击。

从孙中山特色的三民主义，

到此后毛泽东的马克思主义中国化、

邓小

平的中国特色社会主义，都揭示着何为中国梦，那就是：创新兴国，特色兴国。

美国立国时打的旗号就是自由,并且对全世界说把你们的穷人给我,我会照顾他们美国是自由的,来到这里什么都能实现

其实也就是想多挖点人口到美国,那时候欧洲人看美国就跟清朝的北京人看宁古塔差不多但凡能混的过去的谁去那鬼地方啊,跟发配似的

美国人口稀少,自然就没办法开发和发展啊,所以挖点在欧洲没法混的穷人,给他们个希望美国有温暖,美国有自由,美国有前途,美国给你梦想,就那意思

The American Dream is the faith held by many in the United States of America that through hard work, courage, and determination one can achieve a better life for oneself, usually through financial prosperity These were values held by many early European settlers, and have been passed on to subsequent generations What the American Dream has become is a question under constant discussion, and some believe that it has led to an emphasis on material wealth as a measure of success and/or happiness

often the first glimpse of the United States for millions of American immigrants after oceanic voyages from Europe

The origin of the American Dream stems from the departure in government and economics from the models of the Old World This allowed unprecedented freedom, especially the possibility of dramatic upward social mobility Additionally, from the American Revolutionary War well into the later half of the nineteenth century, many of America's physical resources were unclaimed and held out the promise of land ownership and lucky investment in land or industry The development of the Industrial Revolution combined with the great natural resources of the enormous and as yet unsettled continent created the possibility of achieving wealth

Many early American prospectors headed west of the Rocky Mountains to buy acres of cheap land in hopes of finding deposits of gold The American Dream was a driving factor not only in the gold rushes of the mid to late 1800s, but also in the waves of immigration throughout that century and the following

Impoverished western Europeans escaping the Irish potato famines in Ireland, the Highland clearances in Scotland and the aftermath of Napoleon in the rest of Europe came to America to escape a poor quality of life at home They wanted to embrace the financial mobility and constitutional freedoms that existed in the United States

A sizable number of Chinese and Japanese immigrants also arrived in the US in the mid 19th century seeking the American Dream This led to the founding of several Chinatowns in locations such as San Francisco and New York City Many immigrants from these countries also worked as laborers on the First Transcontinental Railroad

During the mid-to-late 19th century prolific dime novel writer Horatio Alger, Jr became famous for his novels that idealized the American Dream His novels about down-and-out bootblacks who were able to achieve wealth and success helped entrench the dream within popular culture Nearing the twentieth century, major industrialist personalities became the new model of the American Dream, many beginning life in the humblest of conditions but later controlling enormous corporations and fortunes Perhaps most notable here were the great American capitalists Andrew Carnegie and John D Rockefeller This acquisition of great wealth demonstrated to many that if you had talent, intelligence, and a willingness to work extremely hard, you were likely to be a success in life as a result

Throughout the 19th century, immigrants fled the monarchies of Western Europe and their post-feudal economies, which actively oppressed the peasant class These economic systems required high levels of taxation, which stymied development The American economy, however, was built up by people who were consciously free of these constraints

Settlement in the new world provided hope for egalitarianism Martin Luther King invoked the American Dream in what is perhaps his most famous speech: "Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream It is a dream deeply rooted in the American Dream"

The American dream, along with escape from persecution or war in one's home country, has always been the primary reason for immigrants wanting to come to America Throughout its history, America has been seen as a place with high opportunity for entrepreneurs relative to other regions of the world

By the turn of the 20th century, the promise of the American Dream had begun to lure substantial numbers of immigrants from Eastern and Southern Europe Huge numbers of Italians, Poles, Greeks, Jews, Russians and others came to find work in industrial cities such as New York, Chicago, Philadelphia and Detroit This wave of immigration continued until the outbreak of World War I Following the war, nativist sentiment led to new restrictions on immigration, which would continue until the Immigration and Nationality Services Act of 1965, which allowed larger scale immigration to resume

The American Dream appears to have enduring appeal to many in other countries The United States remains a magnet for immigrants today, receiving 1 million legal entrants annually — the largest influx in the world Whereas past generations of immigrants tended to come from Europe, a majority of contemporary immigrants hail from Latin America and Asia

The American Dream today

In the 20th century, the American Dream had its challenges The Great Depression caused widespread hardship during the Thirties, and was almost a reverse of the dream for those directly affected Racial instability did not disappear, and in some parts of the country racial violence was almost commonplace There was concern about the undemocratic campaign known as McCarthyism carried on against suspected Communists

Since the end of World War II, young American families have sought to live in relative comfort and stability in the suburbs that were built up around major cities This led to the rise of the relatively conservative 1950s, when many pursued the "perfect family" as a part or consequence of the American Dream This period was shattered by a new generation of young people who embraced the hippie values of the 1960s, denying traditional values such as the American Dream In modern times, the American Dream is seen as a possible accomplishment, as all children can go to school and get an education Though the drive to it waned during those years, the dream itself has never died out

In the 1990s, the pursuit of the American Dream could be seen in the Dot-com boom People in US, as well as the world poured their energy into the new Gold Rush - the Internet It was again driven by the same faith that by one's ingenuity and hardwork, anyone can become successful in America Ordinary people started new companies from their garages and became millionaires This new chapter of the American Dream again became the beacon to the world and attracted many entrepreneurial people from China and India to Silicon Valley to form startups, and seek fortune in America

Another recent example of the American Dream being realized is the case of Tamir Sapir An immigrant from the former Soviet republic of Georgia, Sapir arrived in America in 1973 and started as a taxicab driver in New York City Saving up to buy an electronics store, he catered primarily to Russian clientele Eventually he made contacts with the Soviet contingent to the United Nations in New York, and traded electronics for oil contracts, which he then sold to American companies Investing the profits in Manhattan real estate, he became a billionaire by 2002, less than thirty years after arriving penniless in America Like many rags to riches stories, his is a unique one that would be hard to replicate Yet today Sapir is becoming known as America's "billionaire cabbie"

Criticism

The concept of the American Dream has been the subject of much criticism by, for example, Joseph Stiglitz The main criticism is that the American Dream is misleading These critics say that, for various reasons, it simply is not possible for everyone to become prosperous through determination and hard work alone The consequences of this belief can include the poor feeling that it is their fault that they are not successful It can also result in less effort towards helping the poor since their poverty is seen as "proof" of their laziness The concept of the American Dream also ignores other factors of success such as luck, family, language, and wealth one is born into (although proponents of the dream would claim that starting wealth is irrelevant because of the belief that there is no level of poverty one cannot rise from with hard work) It also fails to take inheritable traits such as intelligence quotient and physical attributes including height, shape, and beauty into account

The American Dream is seen by critics as being somewhat superficial or meaningless Many literary works level exactly that criticism at the American Dream, such as Arthur Miller's play Death of a Salesman The play, a classic American work of literature, finds the main character Willy Loman struggling to come to grips with the fact that his American Dream is unattainable Such arguments are essentially rehashes of the old adage "Money doesn't buy happiness", and that perhaps not everyone's dream should be to achieve great monetary gain

In particular some of the criticisms are:

In the US there is wide availability of financial aid, and the poorest students are increasingly being given guarantees of a high proportion (up to 100%) of grants, removing the obligation to pay back their university Harvard University became the first private university to offer 100% grants to accepted students from US families earning less than US$40,000 a year in 2003, and in 2004 the University of Virginia became the first public university to offer a similar full-grant program, on incomes up to 200% of the poverty line, or about US$37,700 at that time

Wealth retention – Certain laws allow the wealthy to keep more of their money For example, the recent lessening of inheritance tax and capital gains taxes may work to further solidify wealth once it is earned

Economies of scale – It can be difficult to successfully start a business One reason is because of the economies of scale necessary to survive in a commoditized market, although many markets today are not commoditized

Genetic lottery – Research has suggested that features like IQ and extroversion may give certain people some advantages over others when it comes to making smart business decisions or career choices, and in establishing a social network

Ethical differences – As in other countries, actions considered ethical vary between Americans For example, a CEO who sees certain stock options as excessive monetary gain would find it harder to attain great wealth than one with a different viewpoint

他先是喜欢写，然后赚到了钱

／傅月庵

史蒂芬‧金始终焦虑着，自从他发现自己爱上写作这件事之后。

1954年，七岁的他，因病休学在家，整天躺在床上看漫画。在母亲的鼓舞下，创作了一个四页长的魔法动物故事，获得母亲所赏赐的一块美金稿费。他自觉人生就此开启了一扇「可能」的大门，但，焦虑也随之开始了。

不同的人生阶段里，这种关于写作的焦虑，以着不同的面貌出现。「退稿」当然是其中的一种，但不严重。对于一个以写作为乐的14岁的青少年而言，墙上悬挂退稿的钉子因无法负荷重量而掉了下来，充其量换一根更长一点的就是了。类如「写得很好，但不适合我们。你很有才华，再加把劲吧！」的退稿注语则让他大受鼓舞，深感希望无穷，前途无限。

一生最爱是恐怖

真正让人焦虑的是，他自小就对公认有助于「精神向上提升」的优良课外读物诸如《白雪公主》、《安博公爵》（The Amboy Dukes）、……无甚反应，吸引他废寝忘食钻读、赶场的书籍和**，几无例外都是关于火星人、吸血鬼、僵尸、盗墓、活死人、蛇发魔女、开膛手杰克……这种直到今天还是被教育人士视为「儿童不宜」的「低劣」创作，并且要越血腥越恐怖越能让他感到兴奋满足。写作反映人生，你读了些什么、想了些什么，动之于心，很自然形诸于笔，尤其对于中学八年级生而言。

1961年某月的某一天，史蒂芬‧金把他所看到、自认为最精彩无比的彩色恐怖片《陷坑与钟摆》（The Pit and the Pendulum，根据爱伦坡短篇小说改编。）改写成小说，自编自印，带到学校去兜售，一个上午便卖了36本，现赚九块钱，成了他的「第一本畅销书」，也让穷苦人家小孩的他，大受鼓舞，深感「钱」途有望，更多零用金终于不是梦。下午两点钟，他被叫到校长室，校长要他把钱退还同学，还训了他一顿：「我真搞不懂，史蒂芬，你明明有才华，却为什么老爱写这些垃圾东西，白白糟蹋天分呢？」史蒂芬‧金羞愧地遵命退钱，却不认输，那年暑假，他又自写自编自印了个《外星人入侵》的故事，大卖一场。然而，赚足了零用钱的他，内心还是感到羞愧，耳边不停浮现校长的话：为何要糟蹋天分？为何要浪费时间？为何要写这些垃圾？

此后20多年之间，这些话成为史蒂芬‧金挥之不去的阴影。他还在写，且割舍不下「这些垃圾东西」。「写作是一种涂鸦。我们每个人的思想都像一个滤网，网的大小和尺寸都不同。我的滤网流不过的东西，也许可以流过你的滤网，而且一点困难也没有。你的滤网流不过的东西，也许在我的滤网中通行无阻。我们每个人似乎都有与生俱来的责任去转换这些堵住我们思想滤网的糟粕，最后会发展出某种才艺来。」成名之后，史蒂芬‧金曾经这样解释他的写作嗜好，他的思想滤网流不过去的，就是「恐惧」这件事，这是天性，所以他爱写，也几乎只写「恐怖小说」。

一生最爱是恐怖，听起来似乎有些病态，许多人也认为这是史蒂芬‧金在尝到甜头，靠着吓人赚得亿万家产之后的说词，根本是哗众取宠的一派胡言。然而，正如孔子所言：「富与贵，是人之所欲也；不以其道得之，不处也。贫与贱，是人之所恶也；不以其道得之，不去也。君子去仁，恶乎成名。君子无终食之间违仁，造次必于是，颠沛必于是。」我们若以「恐怖小说」跟「写作」来代替「道」跟「仁」这两个字，再用这段话来形容史蒂芬‧金的这一生，则虽不中亦不远矣。

我知道我有多认真

1973年的史蒂芬‧金：大学毕业二年，27岁，已婚，眼镜镜片越来越厚重，卡其裤已快装不下日益向外扩张的啤酒肚。育有一子一女的他，好不容易在高中找到一份教职，却入不敷出，暑假里还得到洗衣工厂打工，老婆塔比莎（Tabitha Spruce）则穿着粉红制服在甜甜圈店里当服务生。全家人住在一辆拖车里，电话被断线了，更没钱修理代步用的破烂「别克」车。他终日担心会有额外的账单，也被教学跟行政会议搞得兴味索然：「这不是我该拥有的生活！」跟所有人一样，史蒂芬‧金被生活压得喘不过气，却看不到任何改变的曙光。

然而，即使生活如此艰难，他还是在写作，还是在投稿，而且，还是写恐怖小说，书桌抽屉里随时躺着5、6份未完的手稿。「为何要糟蹋天分？为何要浪费时间？为何要写这些垃圾？」老校长的这几句话，想必也曾浮现在他的脑海之中，不过此时的他大概无暇顾及这些了。毕竟，有时候「垃圾」被录用了，额外的稿费收入总会带来意外的欢乐。全家大吃一顿、多买些日用品、带耳朵有问题的女儿去看早该看了的医生。这有什么不好呢？他真正担心的是，眼见而立之年即将到来，自己到底能不能成为作家，靠写作维生呢？

人的命运难说，事后回想，一个小动作，往往决定了一生的走向。要不是老婆塔比莎始终认定史蒂芬‧金有才华，写作绝不是浪费时间，总是鼓励他多花时间在写作上；要不是她从字纸篓里把已经被揉掉《魔女嘉莉》（Carrie）草稿给检了回来，抖掉烟灰，摊平开来阅读，还贴心地对老公说：这个有搞头，你一定行的！其实史蒂芬‧金能否挣脱金锁走蛟龙，平地一声起高楼？只怕还在未定之天呢。但不管怎么说，1974年，《魔女嘉莉》（Carrie）出版已经是一个历史事实了。这本书像个实现了的「美国梦」，让史蒂芬‧金一鸣惊人、一飞冲天、一夜成名，也造就了美国文学史上最重要的一位畅销书作家——接下来，他将花三十年时间，以只手之力，开创出「社会恐怖小说」（social horror fiction）这一类型阅读，与安‧莱丝（Anne Rice）、狄恩‧昆兹（Dean Koontz）、彼得‧斯陶伯（Peter Straub）、约翰‧法瑞斯（John Farris）等人共同铺设出一条宽阔的大道来。

《魔女嘉莉》预付版税仅2500美元，畅销之后，光平装本版权就卖了40万美元，他拿到一半的20万，等于31年的教书薪水。史蒂芬‧金时来运转，终于发了！能够无忧无虑，全心全意做他爱做的事，他也更加勤奋了。此后三十年里，每天一大早，他就起床，坐到打字机前写作，至少要写个1500字才起身，且每年只在国庆节、生日和圣诞节这三天停笔歇息（后来他承认，这是为了找话题才这样说的，其实一疯魔了，这三天照写不误！）。「我不断地写，因为我做这个最在行了。有人花上二十年做心理分析，想去了解他们为何有某种兴趣和感觉，我只是放纵它们。」「当我坐在打字机前时，我知道我有多认真。」某次接受访问时，史蒂芬‧金曾这样说道。

到了1982年，短短8年中，他已写出10本小说，本本卖钱。1985年之后，速度更快了，曾在15个月内，连续出版了四部新作，其中《它》（It），厚达1138页，重逾三磅又七盎斯半，简直是书市大忌，但照样「吓吓叫」，独占鳌头，畅销百万余册。1988年，他曾有四部小说同时登上畅销书排行榜，成了美国出版界破天荒的大事。整个八十年代里，史蒂芬‧金可说攻无不胜，战无不克。据统计，这十年里，美国大大小小最畅销的25本书里，他一人就包办了7本，当真空前绝后！

版税之外，从第一本小说起，史蒂芬‧金的另一笔财富就是来自影视收入。由于他实在会讲故事，且惊悚悬疑还带着血腥杀戮的内容，又格外适合改编影视，因此几乎每一本小说都被搬上银幕，让八○年代过着相对太平却也单调日子的美国民众，获得了刺激的宣泄。有人曾私下统计过，1990年秋天，不到一个月的时间里，史蒂芬‧金同时有一部小说在电视播出，两部小说在**院放映，另一部正在拍摄中。其利益之庞大，可想而知。事实上，今天我们所熟知的好莱坞工业与出版市场紧密结合，「小说还在写，**就说好会开拍」的这一生产模式，几乎就是由史蒂芬‧金始作俑者，再经过约翰‧格里逊（John Grisham）、麦克‧克莱顿（Michael Crichton）、汤姆‧克兰西（Tom Clancy）这几位畅销天王发扬光大而确立的。

史蒂芬‧金写得快又卖得好，名利双收，出版等于印钞票，昔日戏言富贵事，今朝都到眼前来。然而，他似乎又焦虑起来了。本来就爱喝两杯的他，到了1985 年，酒瘾、药瘾纷纷上身，不但酗酒，还吸食古柯碱。这是为什么呢？「成名症候群」的患得患失以及定期出版的压力，都可能是原因，但以史蒂芬‧金在此时期的出书质量来看，大约都不成问题。只怕还是隐藏在意识底层的，「为何要糟蹋天分？为何要浪费时间？为何要写这些垃圾？」，如影随形，如蛆附骨，老校长的魔咒还在蠢蠢作祟着。

从担心「恐怖」到担心「不恐怖」

1982年，史蒂芬‧金已经接连写出《午夜行尸》（Salems Lot）、《幽光》（The Shining，又名《鬼店》）、《玉米田的孩子》（Night Shift）、《再死一次》（The Dead Zone）、《燃烧的凝视》（Firestarter）、《狂犬库丘》（Cujo）这些轰传一时的叫座小说，声名大噪，隐隐然具备「畅销霸王」气象之时，他却出版了《四季奇谭》（Different Seasons）。这一本书，颇出读者跟出版界意料之外，是由四个中篇小说组成，前三个与恐怖几乎沾不上边，最后一个虽颇惊悚，但跟之前的「超能力」、「吸血鬼」、鲜血满地滚流相较起来，简直是小巫见大巫了。关于这本书，史蒂芬‧金后来曾透露：「我花在上面的精神比任何一本书都多。」「也许一生再也不会出版另一本完全相同的书了。」为什么要花这么多精神？为什么再也不会有第二本了？问题的答案还是得从这本书里去探索。

史蒂芬‧金在《四季奇谭》的〈后记〉里追述，当他出版《魔女嘉莉》后，又写了《午夜行尸》（Salems Lot），编辑替他有点担心，原因是怕他被「定型」为「专写恐部小说的作家」。史蒂芬‧金对这事看得较轻松，要他等几年再说，原因是「在美国，没有人能专靠写恐怖小说赚钱」。言下之意，当然是指他还会转型的。后来，《幽光》又大卖，编辑更担心「定型」问题了。史蒂芬‧金却还是一派轻松，认为被定型也无妨，「如果读者喜欢，我就写恐怖小说好了，这样也不错。」等到《四季奇谭》出来了，他的编辑还是在担心，重点却不一样了：「我看里面大概没有一篇是恐怖故事的了。是不是？只要一篇就好。」「我大概可以加强一点恐怖气氛。」「好极了！还有那本新小说——」「写一辆闹鬼的车如何？」「这才对呀！」

从担心「恐怖」到担心「不恐怖」，清楚说明了市场的力量正一步步把史蒂芬‧金给「定型」下来。却也说明了，就算一生最爱是恐怖，就算写了8年10部小说，本本畅销之后，他还是有些疑惑，无法肯定自己到底是不是在写些「垃圾」、在「糟蹋天分」、在「浪费时间」？这种焦虑，透过书中公认史蒂芬‧金的化身，也就是叙事者戈弟的口中说得很清楚：「许多书评人说我写的东西都是狗屎，我也时常觉得他们说得没错……我的小说看来近似神话，因此时常被视为荒诞不经。……我想知道我所做的这一切，是否有任何意义？一个人能以杜撰、捏造的小说致富，这算是什么世界？」

Ask most people how they define the American Dream and chances are they’ll say, “Success” The dream of individual opportunity has been home in American since Europeans discovered a “new world” in the Western Hemisphere Early immigrants like Hector St Jean de Crevecoeur praised highly the freedom and opportunity to be found in this new land His glowing descriptions of a classless society where anyone could attain success through honesty and hard work fired the imaginations of many European readers: in Letters from an American Farmer (1782) he wrote “We are all excited at the spirit of an industry which is unfettered (无拘无束的) and unrestrained, because each person works for himself … We have no princes, for whom we toil (干苦力活)，starve, and bleed: we are the most perfect society now existing in the world” The promise of a land where “the rewards of a man’s industry follow with equal steps the progress of his labor” drew poor immigrants from Europe and fueled national expansion into the western territories

Our national mythology (神化) is full of illustration the American success story There’s Benjamin Franklin, the very model of the self-educated, self-made man, who rose from modest origins to become a well-known scientist, philosopher, and statesman In the nineteenth century, Horatio Alger, a writer of fiction for young boys, became American’s best-selling author with rags-to-riches tales The notion of success haunts us: we spend million every year reading about the rich and famous, learning how to “make a fortune in real estate with no money down,” and “dressing for success” The myth of success has even invaded our personal relationships: today it’s as important to be “successful” in marriage or parenthoods as it is to come out on top in business

But dreams easily turn into nightmares Every American who hopes to “make it” also knows the fear of failure, because the myth of success inevitably implies comparison between the haves and the have-nots, the stars and the anonymous crowd Under pressure of the myth, we become indulged in status symbols: we try to live in the “right” neighborhoods, wear the “right” clothes, eat the “right” foods These symbols of distinction assure us and others that we believe strongly in the fundamental equality of all, yet strive as hard as we can to separate ourselves from our fellow citizens

先知就是上帝。

这是当时第五季季末向SPN团体提问的。

问最后消失的Chuck是否是上帝。

答案是是的。

翻译：

问：邪恶力量中最惊奇的情节之一是查克最后的出现，这个先知同时也是《邪恶力量》系列书的作者，他完成了书中温彻斯特兄弟的故事并消失在空气中，同时留给粉丝的最疑惑的地方就是查克是上帝吗？

答：我们最肯定的回答是是的，邪恶力量中根据卡斯迪奥所说，这会是温彻斯特兄弟的福音，一个全新的测验，而且因为圣经是上帝之书，逻辑上上帝就是写这本书的人，上帝是查克也解释了他为什么穿着白衣而且神奇的在最后关头的消失。

作为先知，查克的确做了上帝会做的事情：他尽可能的置身事外但是也会在正确的情况下为sam和dean提供一点小帮助，而且加百列的化身也证明了天使或者其他的生物，像是罪孽天使，会在人间创造另一个假身份来替代自己。
