Para. 1
On Wednesday morning, at a quarter past five, there was an earthquake. A minute later, fires broke out everywhere. There was no organization, no communication. This very modern city was all of a sudden in ruins, with the streets destroyed and forming great depressions in the earth, the telephone lines falling every way, and the water mains pouring out all over the place. The city seemed to have been wiped out by this random act of nature.
新视野大学英语(三)SECTION B 课文翻译
Unit 1 sectionB时值秋夜，在我的故乡新斯科舍，小雨淅沥，轻叩锡铁屋顶。
我们周末度假寄住的古老小屋，弥漫着一股霉味。
空气寒冷得让人发抖，于是我们点上了富兰克林取暖炉。
我们悠然地喝着热朱古力，接着父亲走向立式钢琴，卷起衬衣袖，伸出一指敲一曲。
他算不上一个钢琴家，可他知道歌中的情、家中的爱。
母亲放下手中的针线活，和他同坐在一条凳子上，然后我哥哥也快缓步走向钢琴。
最后，不太能唱歌却能拉拉小提琴的我也凑热闹唱了一两句。
一向体贴人的父亲说：“你看，你也可以唱的，宝贝。
唱得很好。
”我常常记得成长的过程中感受到的温暖、幸福和关爱。
虽然我花了好些年才知道，家人的爱不是凭空产生的。
叶事实上，爱从来就不是凭空产生的，甚至对那些看上去像我父母那样天生充满爱的人来说也一样。
但是，我愿打赌，你必须生活于一个构架之中，方能让爱这一无与伦比的礼物瓜熟蒂落。
首先，爱需要时间。
也许人们可以一眼看到爱的可能，见面几周后就郑重宣布“我爱你”等等，但是这样的爱，相当于刚开始爬山，而这漫长的爬山之路充满着起起落落。
瓜熟蒂落之爱就像一个有生命的机体。
它跟一棵橡树的生命一样，从土里的一粒种子开始，慢慢地长成几乎无叶的细枝，最后枝繁叶茂、足以遮荫，成就其辉煌。
我们不可调控或者加速其成长所需的年月，相反，我们必须用才智和耐心，始终欣赏相互间的差异，分享彼此的快乐和痛苦。
因此，如果因小怒而离婚，父母孩子相互不信任，在第一次受伤害后中断友谊，或不再相信爱，那是令人痛心的事情。
我们常常未经深思熟虑就向某人说“再见”，结果付出了非常昂贵的感情代价。
我曾经认识一对父子，他们被各自的生活困难困扰，多年来距离越拉越远，结果相互间几乎没话可说，而相互间没了依靠，他们的生活变得空虚。
儿子大学毕业后的那个夏天，打算开着黄色老卡车到连通全国的双车道公路上周游一番（那时还没有免费高速公路）。
有一天，在准备出发时，他看见父亲沿着繁忙的街道走来。
父亲熟悉的脸上带着的孤苦令他震动。

An American applied for the same job. Quite by coincidence, the two amplifications,and were asked to take the same test by the manager of the Human Resource Department. Upon completion of the test, both men missed only one of the questions. The manager went to Murphy and said, “Thank you for your interest, but we‟ve decided to give the American the job.”Bewildered by the manager‟s decision, Murphy asked, “Why would y ou be doing that? We both got nine questions correct. This being Ireland and me being Irish, I should get the job!”The manger answered calmly, “We have made our decisions based on the correct answers, but on the question you missed.”Unconvinced and somew hat indignant, Murphy question, “And just how would one incorrect answer be better than the other?”The manager‟s maser took him by surprise, “Simple, on QuestionNo.5, the American put down …I don‟t‟ know‟, and you put down …Neither do I‟.”Keys: FTTTFTFor ReferenceHe made his decision based on the wrong answers to the one question one missed, rather than on the correct answers.By writing “Neither do I”, it seems that Murphy copied the American answer on the test.Task3: A Guide to a Successful Job InterviewScriptThere are times that you will be asked a hard question during a job interview. Don‟t panic, they just want to see how you handle a difficult situation. Being prepared is always the best policy. Here are some samples of questions andsome advice on how to handle them properly.Why should we choose you? To this question, you can ask yourself why you applied, what makes you suitable for this question, what the company can gain from hiring you, what you have to offer, how you would handle this jib, etc. Often they ask you to tell them about yourself. You can split your answer into two, the professional and the personal level. Both are important, and how you move from one to the other depends on what you have to say. You can give a brief summary of your life, professional and personal, with less emphasis on the early past, and more emphasis on the present and the future.When asked “What are your weakness?”, don‟t say, “I don‟t have any.” Everyone has weakness, and it takes something positive like, “I haven‟t had a lot of exposure on the on-site work, but I‟m looking forward to being more involved in dealing with customers directly and learning their needs.”Another common question is: “What are your strengths?” You should customize your answer to meet the position requirement. Keep in mind the things they asked for in the advertisement. Tell them your strengths, but also show them how they how they would apply to this job. To show how your strengths were valuable, use the “Why, where, when, how” to demo nstrate and prove your strengths.What is the passage mainly concerned with?What does the speaker NOT mention as an answer to the question, “Why should we choose you?”?What does the speaker say you should stress when introducing yourself? What does the speaker advice you NOT to say when asked, “What are yourweaknesses?”What should you say when asked about your strong points?Kes: 1C 2.C3. B 4.A 5.DFor Reference“Why should we choose you?”, “Tell me about yourself.”, “What are your weaknesses?”, and “What are your strength?”IV.

Have you looked at the want ads in the newspaper?Susan: I‟ve been checking the want ads every day for a week, but I can‟t find anything interesting that I‟m qualified for.

As for those who did come, they set a high standard for the candidates.B: To find more opportunities, you might as well look at the want ads in the newspaper.A: I‟ve been checking the want ads regularly for months, and I can‟t find anything good that I‟m qualifies for.

Don‟t look too shy, nor should you sound too aggressive. Susan: I‟m not sure what kind of questions they‟ll ask.John: They‟ll probably want to know a little abo ut your work experience. Many companies don‟t want a completely green hand. They don‟t want to spend time and money on training.Susan: Fortunately, I gained some experience at an IT company during the last summer holiday.John: They may also want to know something about your character. You see, ability for teamwork is usually valued.Susan: What kind of questions should I ask them?John: You should ask them about the job requirements and about the company.Susan: Should I ask about salary and fringe benefits?John: Better not. Not unless they bring it up. Just use the first interview to sell yourself.Susan: You‟re right.

A thousand thanks.MODEL3 Our best bet is to recruit from the competition.ScriptHelen: Our company is starting from scratch, so we don‟t have the expertise to compete.Bill: Then our best bet is to recruit from the competition.Helen: We need managers who know how to be strong, yet know how to give employees their freedom.Bill: That‟s essential, especially in the computer industry. Often computer experts like to work on their own.Helen: We also don‟t believe that a right management system will work wonders for our company.Bill: Um…that philosophy will help you attract many worthwhile people. Helen: I remember your friend David Miller is the CEO of a management recruitment agency. I hope he‟ll help us start a recruitment drive.Bill: Certainly. And it‟s a g ood time, too. A number of firms have been downsizing.Helen: Good. So lots of capable people out there are interested in bigger and batter things. But can David help us pin them down?Bill: Sure, Helen!

So it‟s a good time for head-hunting.B: Good. That‟s why they call you headhunters.V. Let‟s TalkScriptGood afternoon, everyone. The university‟s Career Office asked me to give a talk on the topic of how to prepare for job interviews. This is probably the most important aspect in securing a job. Here are some tips I believe to be useful. First, do some research are. Once you have this information, make a list of what skills or knowledge you have that would be valuable to them. You cannot sell yourself to them if you don‟t know what it is you are selling.The next thing to consider is your physical appearance. You have to dress right for job interviews. Don‟t wear anything too flashy; being neat and clean is more important than wearing the latest fashion. The aim is to look professional without overdoing it. Also, it is important that you feel comfortable. If you are not comfortable with a tie, it might be best not to wear one, unless the job requires you to dress this way. The last thing you want is to be worried about your appearance during the interview. It will only make you nervous, and you will quickly lose confidence.Mover over, you have to work out what you need to take with you: A copy of your CV, originals and copies of your qualification paper, copies of reference, samples of your work, if applicable, and anything else that they may want to see. Again, m ake sure everything is well organized and neatly presented. Don‟t take a pile of paperwork that you have to sift through for ten minutes to find something. That will give them the impression that you are disorganized. If you are well prepared, you‟re likel y to have good luck.Things to Do More DetailsTip1 Do some research on the company.Make a list of what skills or knowledge you have that would be valuable to them. Find out what products it makes, who its customers are, and what its objective is.Tip2Take care over your physical appearance. ⑴Dress right. Don‟t wear anything too flashy; neat and clean are more important than the latest fashion.⑵Feel comfortable. Being worried about your appearance during the interview will make you nervous and you will quickly lose confidence.Tip3Work out what to take with you. ⑴Prepare a copy of your resume, originals and copies of your qualification papers, copies of references, and samples of your work.⑵Make sure everything is well organized and neatly presented.DiscussionSAMPLEA: After listen ing to the career officer‟s talk, I‟ve now realizes the importance of getting prepared for an interview.B: Quite true. First of all, we should never be late for an interview. If you‟re not punctual, they‟ll suspect that you‟ll be late for work in future.A: Before going to the interview, we had better pay attention to our dress. Wemust look professional without overdoing it. Careless clothes will lead them into thinking that you‟re likely to do your job carelessly.B: During the interview, it is important to look confident without being too pushy. It‟s necessary to maintain eye contact. This shows your interest in the conversation, and helps to maintain the communication between you and the interviewer.A: Many employers attach importance to the education you‟ve received. We need to highlight those courses especially valuable to the company.B: Book knowledge is not enough. We must show them we have practical experience in the field. Tell them about our internship, and emphasize the skills that are useful i n the job we‟re seeking.A: How clever you are! These days many students want to tell the prospective employer that they have a good command of English and have obtained a College English Test Band 4 Certificate.B: They‟re also eager to tell interviewer about their computer skills with PowerPoint, office automation, and so on. Students from non-key universities especially need certificates to shoe they‟ve acquired those skills before they can hope to compete against students from prestigious universities.A: Character is considered an important factor in contemporary society, where teamwork is a must.B: But too many students are saying more or less the same thing. If everybody says, “I‟m warm-hearted and cooperative, get along well with my classmates, and have good team spirit,” the boss will soon get fed up.A: Perhaps we should let the work we‟ve done shoe our character.B: Right on. Participation is important. If you can show them you‟re an important official of the Student Union of the university or the department, oryou‟ve organized a singing competition and won an award, obviously you‟re a good team player.VI. Further Listening and SpeakingTask1: The Role Memory Plays in Our LifeScriptYour resume, or CV in British English, has one mission and one mission only: to get you a job interview. Your resume is usually the first impression an employer has of you. And as “you never get a second chance to make a first impression”, you…d better get it right firs time. Here‟re some suggestions that may be of use in preparing a resume. First, use a design that demands attention. Employers don‟t have time to read through each of your job descriptions to know if you have the skills they need. The design of your resume must do it for them. Your resume should be concise, well-organized and relevant. It should emphasized the most important and relevant points about your experience, skills and education.Second, put important information first. List important information at the beginning of your job descriptions. Put statements in your resume in order of importance and relevance to the job you want. A powerful statement with exact numbers influences every statement that follows.Third, target the job. You will have more success if you adjust your resume and cover letter for the specific skills another job. In other words, you need to “re-package” yourself. In that way, an employer will see immediately that you correspond to the job description. It is not dishonest to “re-package” yourself. You are simply pressing yourself and your skills in the best light for a particularemployer. This will help you to get more interviews and allow you to apply for a wider range o jobs.Why does the speaker say the resume is important?According to the passage, why should you emphasize the most important point about yourself?Where does the speaker advise putting the important information in your job description?How many resumes would the speaker advise you to write if you applied for three jobs?5. Which of the following makes a good title for the passage?Keys: 1.C 2.A 3.A 4.C 5.BTask 2: Two Essential Factors in an InterviewScriptWhen applying for a job, especially a job you really want. It‟s not usually to feel nervous and anxious. Sometimes it‟s this anxiety, not our qualificatio ns, that keeps us from obtaining our dream job.So you must overcome your nervousness and build up confidence. This often involves two factors: one mental and the other physical. Mentally, it‟s important to prepare yourself for the interview without obsessing over it. Remember, it might be your dream job, but it won‟t be the end of the world if you don‟t get it. Tell yourself that the company would be lucky to get you; and if they choose someone else, it will be their loss. In essence, you need to build yourself-confidence. Your ability to answer all questions without hesitation willcertainly impress the interviewer.Now that you are mentally ready for any question that might be thrown your way, it‟s time to work on your physical presentation. No matter w hat position you are applying for, your physical appearance at the interview will be a big factor in the final determination. It‟s always a good idea to wear a suit; it doesn‟t have to be a designer suit, but something plain and conservative. Do not dress too informally. For example, don‟t wear a red fashionable jacket for your interview. Make sure, too, that it is clean and pressed. This may seem like common sense, but you‟d be surprised how careless some applicants are. While it‟s not necessary to visit t he beauty salon before your interview, make sure that your nail are well-manicured, and your hair is styled carefully and neatly.Task3: An Interview That Upsets the BossScriptJohn was in a terrible accident at work and lost both of his ears. Since he was permanently disfigured, he settled with the company for a fairly large compensation and decided to invest the money in a small but growing telecom business. After weeks of negotiations, he bought the company. Then he realized that he knew nothing about running such a business and quickly set out to hire someone who could do that for him.So he set up three job interviewers. The first guy was great. He knew everything the company needed and was very interesting. At the end of the interview, John asked him, ”Do you notice anything different about me?” And the gentleman answered, “Why yes, I couldn‟t help notice you have no ears.” John got very upset and threw him out.The second interview was with a woman, and she was even better than the first guy. He asked her the same question, “Do you notice anything usually aboutme?” and the she replied, “Well, you have no ears.” Again John got furious and tossed her out.The third and the last interview was the best of all three. It was with a very young man who was fresh out of college. He was smart and handsome. And he seemed to be a better businessman than the firs two put together. John was anxious to employ him, but asked him the same question, “Do you notice anything different about me?”And to his surprise, the y oung man answered, “Yes, you wear contact lenses.”John was amazed, and said, “What an incredibly observant young man! How in the world did you know that?”The young man laughed and replied, “Well, it‟s pretty hard to wear glasses with no ears!”For ReferenceHe lost both of his ears.Because he realized that he knew nothing about running the business after he bought it.Because the interviewee said he noticed that John had no ears, and John got upset.He said he noticed John wore contact lenses.He thought it was pretty difficult to wear glasses with no ears.News ReportA Galaxy of Film Prize WinnersScriptThe European Film Awards—First Hollywood, then Cannes, and now Pairs?The European Film Awards ceremony was held in Pairs in early December, honoring the best in European and world films.Lars von Trier‟s Dancer in the Dark was the overall winner of the evening, receiving awards for the best European film and best actress—Bjork..The audiences was disappointed, however, as neither von Trier, Bjork, nor the Oscar-winning Italian director Roberto Benigni showed up to accept awards. Still, other prize winners did come. The Irish actor Richard Harris, who was given an award for lifetime achievement, gave a humorous thank-you speech that was the high point of the evening.Another internationally known actor, Jean Reno, also gave an enthusiastic thank-you speech. The French actor received an award for European achievement in world cinema, for his international firm career.Other VIPs from around Europe also attended. But most of the prizes at the ceremony, which people have been calling “the European Oscars”, went to French films.There was one international film award, which went to a French-Hong Kong co-produc tion, Wong Karwai‟s In the Mood for Love.。

You live on, but you can't forget you've lost something.Q:What does the woman imply?In a powerful new Mercedes a married couple are driving along a highway at 60 miles per hour, the wife behind the wheel.Her husband suddenly looks over at her. From the tone of his voice and the expression on his face, it's obvious he's enjoying this moment. He says, "Honey, I've got a surprise for you. I know we've been married for 20 years, but I want a divorce."The wife says nothing, but slowly increases the speed to 70 mph.He then says, "I don't want you to try to talk me out of it because I don't love you any more."Again the wife stays quiet, but speeds up as her rage increases."I want the house," he insists, pressing his luck.The wife speeds up to 80 mph.He says, "I want the car, too," but she just drives faster and faster.By now she's up to 90 mph."All right," the man says, "I want the bank accounts, and all the credit cards, too."The wife slowly starts to veer toward a bridge.This makes him a bit nervous, so he says, "Isn't there anything you want?" The wife says, "No, I've got everything I need.""Oh, really," he says, "So what have you got?"Seconds before they slam into the bridge at a speed of 100 mph, the wifesmiles and says, "The airbag."Some people think single parents can never remarry happily, but I disagree. They have to learn the art of blending. A happy remarriage is possible with preparation, patience and prayer. Here are some tips for you.Firstly, slow down. Do not rush your children into trying to like someone.A person you're dating should not even be introduced to your children unless you are sure he or she can get along well with your kids. Your children won't understand the concept of "we're just friends", so they will see every date as a potential replacement for mom or dad.Secondly, you should seek advice. Talk to your close friends or a psychiatrist. After listening to their advice, you may see some new light and act in a more sensible way.Thirdly, you should expect difficulties. Understand that your children have the dream of reuniting their original family. They must be sad about their losses. Surprisingly, older children need even more time to overcome their sadness than younger children. Just as it takes time to heal, it also takes time to build and rebuild relationships. Although you'd expect that most readjustments would need to be made by the stepparent, the biological parent has adjustments of his or her own, including issues of authority within the new household as well as communication with the other parent. Finally, proceed with caution. Although it is not impossible to have a happy and satisfying stepfamily, you should know that there will be some difficult days ahead. Don't impose friendship on the kids who are not yet ready toaccept it.。

TEXT AThe surprising purpose of travel令人惊奇的旅行目的1 It's 4:15 in the morning, and my alarm clock has just stolen away a lovely dream. I almost return back to sleep before my eye catches my packed suitcase and I groan, remembering that I'm going to the airport. The taxi is late and then lost, and I'm getting increasingly nervous that I'll miss my flight. I run in when we arrive, stagger through security and finally get to my gate. After all the trouble of this morning, my flight is canceled and I'm stuck in this terminal for the next 218 minutes, and my only consolation is a cup of complimentary airport coffee. This is traveling, a burdensome series of running and waiting, and after countless hours, finally getting there.早晨四点一刻，闹钟把我从美梦中惊醒，要不是突然看见早已收拾好的行李箱，我几乎又要睡着。
想起来还要去机场，我叹了口气。
出租车来晚了，并且在途中迷了路，我越来越担心会赶不上飞机。

HomeworkNHCE-BIII-Unit 4 I: ObjectivesMENU •Objectives•Students would:• 1. be able to successfully finish listening, speaking, reading and writing tasks related to the theme of ―symbols of American culture‖, with the help of theme vocabulary.• 2. improve the accuracy of their spoken and written output, thanks to theme words and expressions.• 3. improve the fluency of their spoken output during the completion of the chains of tasks.•4. have an understanding about the essence of American and Chinese culture.1. About American Culture:Most Americans see themselves first as individuals and then as a member of a community, family or other groups. Some people from other countries view this as being ―selfish‖. Others view it as freedom from constraints.IndividualismThe main content of American culture is the emphasis on individuals' value, the pursuit of democracy and freedom, the promotion of deploitation (开拓, 经营), competition, and the need of realism and practicality.Equality and InformalityMost Americans treat each other in informal ways, even in the presence of great differences in age or social standing. Some see this as a ―lack of respect‖. Others see it as a healthy lack of concern for social ritual (礼仪).2.A Poem Inscribed on the Statue of LibertyThe New Colossusby Emma Lazarus Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,With conquering limbs astride from land to land;Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall standA mighty woman with a torch, whose flameIs the imprisoned lightning, and her nameMother of Exiles. From her beacon-handGlows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes commandThe air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame."Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries sheWith silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"新的巨人（New Colossus）不像那无耻的古希腊的青铜巨人，叉腿横跨征服的陆地；在这海水冲洗的日落重门，将矗立起一位手持火炬的伟大女性，火焰是被囚禁着的闪电，流放者们的母亲就是她的姓名。

Now that she was told her style was better suited for drawing greeting cards, she felt it was a comedown from high expectation.

When one has an acid tongue, he or she is very bitter to others, that is, he or she is very critical of others.5.A trademark is a special name, sign, word, etc. marked on a product; it is a special sign or a distinctive characteristic.

The language of the first paragraph testifies this. It has no technical terms. Frequently seen in the text are dates, which are associated with the activities of Martin Luther King. The language is very formal as it has rather long sentences. This also points to the fact thatthe writer of the text intends to inform readers of the most famous civil rights movement leader—Martin Luther King.Comprehension Task:B D ACD A D CVocabulary Task 1:abolished bribing arrested propose vote amend regulating discriminate reversewitness approximate accords evilVocabulary Task 2:with to at for in in aside as on of for...for o verFurther Reading 1:N N Y N NG Y N8.

Obviously, it's about the possibility or legality of human cloning. The writer will give us a thorough analysis as to who might take advantage of human cloning.2.The language is formal and serious. Besides, it is emotional. The evidence for this is the repeated employment of rhetorical questions.3.Altogether, there are seven questions, including the one in the title. Of the seven, four are rhetorical questions. They appear respectively at the end of Paragraph 2, Paragraph 3, Paragraph 4, and at the beginning of Paragraph 6.4.Rhetorical questions are mainly intended to stir up the readers' emotions, to put them off guard, making them ready to accept the writer's opinion. Rhetorically, this is called emotional appeal. By using rhetorical questions four times, the writer of this text is appealing to the readers to accept the idea "Don't just say no to human cloning". With all the above in view, we can see that the text is persuasive.Comprehension Task:F F T T T F T TVocabulary Task 1:resigned consent governing refusal disposed artificial de sirable reproduceviolated radical probable reflection resume panic opposi tionVocabulary Task 2:1.She came up with a new idea for increasing sales.2.It makes sense to buy the most up-to-date version.3.If the day turns out to be wet, we may have to change our plans.4.Upon reflection, she decided to accept his offer.5.For the sake of a successful exhibition we should try our best to collect more famous paintings.6.We reserved two tickets in the name of Brown.7.We had to resign ourselves to taking a loss on the sale.8.Economic and social inequalities can never be viewed as positive and constructive forces.9.If he did move to Beijing, he'd stand a chance of getting a job.10.These policemen are frightened at the prospect that they face a population which has the most advanced automatic arms at its disposal.Further Reading 1:Y N Y Y N NG N8. learn how to relax9. relieving tension10. relaxation, enjoyment and healthFurther Reading 2:D D C A B D A8. popular and traditional9. public officials10. freedom of expressionUnit9Reading Skills:1.Yes.

Conflicts occur when their children fail to reach their expectations. But why do parents tend to expect so much from their children?The harsh reality may be one reason for the high expectations. We can see such logic behind parents' expectations: If their children can study hard, then they will be admitted to key universities, and then they will be much more competitive in job hunting after graduation.The peer pressure is also a contributing factor. Parents tend to compare their kids to other kids interms of academic performance. Parents consider it a shame if their children always lag behind other children. So it is often the case that parents spare no efforts to send their children to expensive training centers.Parents' love for their kids provides another explanation for their burning desire to see the best of their kids. Parents will be proud if their children make great achievements. But sometimes such love becomes a heavy burden on their kids.The harsh reality, peer pressure and parents' love all account for the unreasonable expectations for the kids. To set reasonable expectations for the kids is not easy, but is worth trying; after all, parents don't want the heavy pressure to crush their children.9威尼斯是意大利北部一座世界闻名的岛城：威尼斯建立于公元5世纪，在公元10世纪时成为一支重要的海上力量。

It still stands now, on Ile des Cygnes an island in the Seine River, next to the Pont de Grenelle, a bridge crossing the Seine, 1.5 km downstrean (South) of the Eiffel Tower.Official accepting Statue on behalf of US: President Grover ClevelandDate of Acceptance by President: October 28, 1886Barbie dolls(配贴图)American Gothic(美国哥特式) (配贴图)The Buffalo Nickel (野牛镍币) (配贴图)Uncle Sam (配贴图) :Symbols of U.S. Government:Uncle Sam, a figure symbolizing the United States, is portrayed as a tall, white-haired man with a goatee. He is often dressed in red, white, and blue, and wears a top hat.The exact origins of Uncle Sam as a symbol for the United States are unknown. But the most widely accepted theory is that Uncle Sam was named after Samuel Wilson.During the War of 1812, Samuel Wilson was a businessman from Troy, NY that supplied the U.S. Army with beef in barrels. The barrels were labeled "U.S." When asked what the initials stood for, one of Wilson's workers said it stood for Uncle Sam Wilson. The suggestion that the meat shipments came from "Uncle Sam" led to the idea that Uncle Sam symbolized the FederalGovernment and association stuck. In 1961, Congress passed a resolution that recognized Samuel Wilson as the inspiration for the symbol Uncle Sam.But Sam Wilson looked nothing like the Uncle Sam pictured above.
