Independence Day: 独立日是美国的主要法定节日之一，日期为每年7月4日，以纪念1776年7月4日大陆会议在费城正式通过《独立宣言》。《独立宣言》由托马斯·杰佛逊起草，1776年7月4日经大陆会议专门委员会修改后通过，并由大陆会议主席约翰·汉考克签字生效。《独立宣言》开宗明义地阐明，一切人生而平等，具有追求幸福与自由的天赋权利；淋漓尽致地历数了英国殖民主义者在美洲大陆犯下的罪行；最后庄严宣告美利坚合众国脱离英国而独立。《独立宣言》是具有世界历史意义的伟大文献。通过《独立宣言》的这一天也成为美国人民永远纪念的节日，定为美国独立日. 优选 * 早期独立日的庆祝活动主要是游行和演讲，并带有一定的宗教色彩。后来又增加了户外活动、体育比赛等项目。燃放爆竹、烟火的活动一度也十分流行，20世纪后才被取消，以防发生危险。 今天，独立日在美国是一个相当热闹的节日，每逢这一天，全美大大小小的教堂钟声齐鸣，以纪念美国独立。首先敲响的是费城自由钟。各地居民自发地进行庆祝游行，有的扮作骑马的旧时牧师或坐着古式马车的贵族小姐举行化妆游行；有的组成家庭小乐队参加游行，还有的全家祖孙几辈载歌载舞，边舞边行。各种彩车、模型车、杂技车和小孩玩具车同欢乐的人群一起排成浩浩荡荡的队伍前进，景象十分壮观。游行结束，人们往往聚在公园或公共场所共同欢度节日。在一片乐曲声中，人们或翩翩起舞，或席地野餐，商人们忙着叫卖纪念品，政客们乘机进行竞选演说，孩子们则在草地上做各种游戏，全美各地呈现出一派节日的欢乐景象。 优选 * 2.…but in my minds eye an American tourist may noti
