美国旧金山湾区新闻电视台KRON 4的节目《世人的恶行》日前将焦点对准了中国城的"挤车族"。在其镜头里,公车进站,一班华裔等车乘客一拥而上,其中两人在其他乘客还未下车时就往上挤。这期节目在网上播出后引发热议,中国人被指上车时很粗鲁。
*The rude behavior is not caused by lack of buses, according to Stanley Roberts, a senior journalist working on the program. Jostlers usually think it's the last bus today and I have to board the bus, he said.
针对华侨挤车现象,该节目资深媒体人罗伯茨称这并非由于缺少公车,而是很多挤车客会有一种心态:"这是最后一班车,我必须上去。"
*It is because Chinese have no habits of queuing, according to a Chinatown resident surnamed Wu. Chinese are used to stampeding in a group to do something, and the habit used overseas will arouse indignation among foreigners and earn the reputation of lacking public manners, he said.
久居中国城的吴先生认为,挤车是由于很多中国人没有排队习惯,碰到人多的时候中国人爱"一窝蜂"而上。但这些不良习惯带到海外后,会让"老外"侧目,批评国人缺乏公共礼仪。
*The news program "People Behaving Badly" has run 4 years, exposing bad behavior in public. The improper performances rise from selfish egotism, or what he called "Me-ism", said Roberts. Such thinking leads people to break rules.
《世人的恶行》播出4年来,曝光了不少人们在公共场所的不良行为。罗伯茨表示,种种不良行为很多时候是基于一种狭隘的自我为中心的意识,他用了一个词"Me-ism"来形容,正是这种凡事都先想到"我"的思维方式,造成了人们不顾秩序,不守规章。
