er to cut across social and occupational lines there than it is here. It is easier in Europe for people of different social groups and occupations to intermingle and have social intercourse. 6. A man can be as proud of being a good waiter as of being a good actor, and in neither case feel threatened. In Europe a good waiter and a good actor are equally proud of their social status and position. They are not jealous of each other and do not live in fear of losing their position.  7. I was born in New York, but have lived only in pockets of it. I was born in New York but have lived only in some small areas of the city. 8. This reassessment, which can be very painful, is also very valuable. The reconsideration of the significance and importance of many things that one had taken for granted in the past can be very painful, though very valuable.  9. On this acceptance, literally, the life of a writer depends. The life of a writer really depends on his accepting the fact that no matter where he goes or what he does he will always carry the marks of his origins.  10. American writers do not have a fixed society to describe. American writers live in a mobile society where nothing is fixed, so they do not have a fixed society to describe.11..Every society is really governed by hidden laws, by unspoken but profound assumptions on the part of the people.Every society is influenced and directed by hidden laws, and by many things deeply felt andtaken for granted by the people, though not openly spoken about.CTRL+A全选可调整字体属性及字体大小-CAL-FENGHAI.NetworkInformationTechnologyCompany.2020YEAR
