美国人热情友好,不像许多外国人想象的那样浮于表面。人们认为美国人易动感情。在典礼上看到国旗或者参加庆祝美国昔日荣耀的游行时,美国人可能会热泪盈眶。与家人团圆或与朋友相聚时,他们也会十分激动。他们喜欢穿着得体,即使“得体”无异于奢华炫耀。他们爱说大话,虽然只不过是说说而已。他们有时会嘲笑自己,嘲笑自己的国家,有时候甚至过于自责,然而他们始终有着强烈的爱国之心。他们对日常琐事知之甚广,对自己所在的城市和州深为关切。然而,有时候外国人却抱怨说,美国人对外部世界漠不关心,一无所知。

2001nian 7月7日,耶路撒冷举行的一场音乐会在以色列引起了
轩然大波。世界著名指挥家丹尼尔. 巴伦博伊姆正在率领德国管弦乐团在以色列上演奏瓦格纳的音乐,而瓦格纳是一个反犹太的德国作曲家,也是希特勒最欣赏的音乐家。建国以来的50多年里,以色列一直都有这么一条不成文的禁忌---不公开演出瓦格纳的任何作品。
因为对许多以色列犹太人和二战大屠杀的幸存者来说,瓦格纳的音乐是和希特勒政权紧紧联系在一起的。尽管瓦格纳的作品在全世界范围内广为人知并广泛演出,但在以色列只要一提起瓦格纳就会激发人们的愤怒和谴责。
但巴伦博伊姆坚持认为,瓦格纳的反犹太主义思想既不能忽视,也不可简单地把它等同于他的音乐。他的音乐是由于它所具有的艺术价值而值得人们欣赏,一个民主的社会不应当阻止人们欣赏这样的作品。

As one of the key figures in the history of opera, / Richard Wagner was largely responsible / for altering its orientation in the 19th century. / His program of artistic reform, / though not executed to the last detail, / accelerated the trend towards organically conceived structures, / as well as influencing the development of the orchestra, / of a new breed of singers, / and of various aspects of theatrical practice. / As the most influential composer / during the second half of the 19th century, / his conception of music / remains very much with us / even a century after his death. / His style of orchestration can be heard in many movie scores. /Wagner thought / his music dramas were to be the models for the 20th-century opera, / but he could not foresee the path / of total abandonment of tonality / that was to revolutionize music in the early
20th century. II.
