11."A city upon a hill":源自圣经马太福音五章十四节，耶稣说：“你们是世上的光。城造在山上，是不能隐藏的。”
“A city upon a hill",山巅之城：举世瞩目之下，言为人师，行为世范。这是美国政治家心中的美国。
1630年，英国律师，清教徒John Winthrop，率领1000多在英国受迫害的清教徒乘船前往新大陆，期望并坚信在大西洋的另一边找到自己的“应许之地”。他们到达波士顿，还没下船，他就告诫大家：“We must always consider
that we shall be as a city upon a hill—the eyes of all people are upon us.”。早期移民美国的清教徒整体受教育程度很高，不少牛津，剑桥（大多数）毕业的。六年后，1636年就创立了哈佛大学。美国精神跟清教徒精神一脉相承，包括开拓，进取，创新，勤奋，节俭，诚实守信，回馈社会的意识，和维护正义的勇气等等。
此后的美国政治家经常援引John Winthrop上面那句话，愿意相信美国是God's country, "a city upon a hill"。比如肯尼迪总统1961年说：“Today the eyes of all people are truly upon us—and our governments, in every branch, at every level,national, state and local, must be as a city upon a hill — constructed and inhabited by men aware of their great trust and their great responsibilities.”

反思总结
导师这次选择了一个比较冷门的主题，宗教问题，不可否认的是西方国家聚焦研究中国政治经济不遗余力，却忽视了中国社会在文化和信仰层面正在经历的重大变化，而本文则正好填补了这一空缺。
不知是从何时开始，社会普遍认为我们的道德水平日益低下，是从那个扶不起的老人开始还是对于红灯若无睹的大多数人？
为了找到精神上的寄托和依靠，许多人转向了宗教，文章较为客观的分析了习主席上台后如何将宗教信仰与我党紧密相连，使得两者成为同样密不可分的，人民的精神支柱。也回答了我们应该如何重拾信仰的这一关键社会性问题。
生词积累过程中不乏遇到高频词汇，而此次的神句翻译更是让我看到了句子结构以及解释含义上仍有待改进，尽管每个单词分开都明确知道含义，但是在句中则应该对应上下文共同理解。部分神词的翻译太过生硬，这也同样是
