Independence Day (United States) * * The United States of America ——By XXX National flag National anthem National day For of all the signs and symbols since the world began there is none other so full of meaning as the flag of this country. That piece of red, white and blue bunting means five thousand years of struggle upward. It is the full-grown flower of ages of fighting for liberty. It is the century plant of human hope in bloom. Today the flag consists of thirteen horizontal stripes, seven red alternating with six white. The stripes represent the original thirteen colonies, the stars represent the fifty states of the Union. The colors of the flag are symbolic as well: Red symbolizes Hardiness and Valor, White symbolizes Purity and Innocence and Blue represents Vigilance, Perseverance and Justice. Oh, say can you see by the dawns early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilights last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight, Oer the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof thru the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave, Oer the land of the free and the home of the brave? …… 哦，你可看见，透过一线曙光，我们对着什么，发出欢呼的声浪？ 谁的阔条明星，冒着一夜炮火，依然迎风招展，在我军碉堡上？ 火炮闪闪发光，炸弹轰轰作响，它们都是见证，国旗安然无恙。 你看星条旗不是还高高飘扬，在这自由国家，勇士的家乡？ …… In?the?United?States,?Independence?Day,?commonly?known?as?the?Fourth?of?July,?is?a?federal?holiday?commemorating?the?adoption?of?the?Declaration?of?Independence?on?July?4,?1776,?declaring?independence?from?the?Kingdom?of?Great?Britain.?
