1. 听写包答案：

It’s interesting how much we can learn about culture in the United States by looking at how Christopher Columbus has been portrayed throughout United States’ history.

So let’s start at the beginning.
Columbus’ ships first landed in a...landed in the Caribbean, there’s some debate about which island.
He landed in 1492, but it wasn’t until 300 years later in 1792 that his landing was first commemorated.
And this was the brainchild of John Pintard.
Pintard was a wealthy New Yorker, the founder of the New York Historical Society.
And he decided to use his influence and wealth to, uh, to find a great hero, a patron for the young country.
And he chose Columbus.
And in New York, in 1792, the anniversary of Columbus’ landing was commemorated for the first time.
Now, other cities, uh, Philadelphia and Baltimore followed. And...
But why Columbus? And why then?
Well, to Pintard it was a way to build patriotism in the young, politically fractured country.
有趣的是我们通过看Christopher Columbus在美国历史上是如何被描绘的就能了解美国的文化。
我们从头开始讲。
Columbus的船队最先在加勒比海登陆，具体是哪一座岛还存在一些争议。
他是在1492年登陆的，但是直到1792年，也就是三百年后，他的登陆才开始成为纪念。
而这是John Pintard的智慧结晶。
Pintard是一位很富有的纽约人，他是纽约历史协会的创始人。
他决定要用自己的影响力和财富来为这个年轻的国家找到一个伟大的英雄，一位恩主。
他选择了Columbus。
1792年在纽约，Columbus的登陆纪念日首次得到庆祝。
其他城市，比如Philadelphia和Baltimore也进行了效仿。而且......
但是为什么选择Columbus呢？为什么选择那个时候呢？
对Pintard来说，这是一种在这个年轻的、政治上分裂的国家建立爱国主义的方法。
