在美国迎来建国250周年之际，哥伦比亚广播公司邀请美国人分享他们眼中这个国家的突出特质。
美国人眼中美国最棒的方面
当被要求选出美国生活方式中最值得称道的地方时，“美国人民”以绝对优势位居榜首，远超该国的土地与资源、经济体系或政府体制。
美国人眼中最伟大的发明
我们邀请受访者用自己的语言分享他们认为美国最伟大的发明是什么。
“自由”和“民主”是被提及最多的概念。除此之外，还有一些更具体的事物：
灯泡与照明技术是被提到最多的具体发明，其次是互联网，整体反映出公众对科技与创新的普遍认可。
其他值得一提的发明还包括汽车、电话和飞机。
除科技与创新外，多数美国人认为美国在影视领域位居全球第一——体育和食品领域则评价稍低。
哪种食物最能代表美国？
答案是汉堡！在包含烧烤、苹果派和热狗等选项的榜单中，汉堡位居榜首，领先于烧烤。
老年群体则更青睐苹果派作为最能代表美国的食物。
尽管披萨在整体榜单中排名靠后，但在美国东北部地区，选择披萨的人数多于其他地区。
建国250周年庆祝活动
仅有略超过一半的美国人对即将到来的“美国250”周年庆祝活动抱有不同程度的期待，不过真正表示“非常期待”的人数不多。有一半的受访者表示会在今年独立日悬挂美国国旗。
而且，对“美国250”庆祝活动越期待的人，表示会悬挂国旗的概率也越高。
本次哥伦比亚广播公司/舆观调查于2026年6月23日至26日开展，受访样本为具有全国代表性的2150名美国成年人。根据美国人口普查局美国社区调查和当前人口调查，以及2024年总统选举结果，样本按性别、年龄、种族和教育背景进行了加权处理，以确保能代表全国成年人口。调查误差范围为±2.7个百分点。

As America marks 250 years since its founding, CBS News asked Americans to weigh in on what they think stands out about the country.
Best thing about America
When asked to pick the best thing about the American way of life, it’s “the people” that comes out on top, far ahead of its land and resources, its economic system or its system of government.
America’s greatest invention
We asked people to tell us in their own words what they think America’s greatest invention has been.
Freedom was the most cited, and democracy itself. Others were more specific items:
The light bulb and lighting were the most frequently mentioned, followed by the internet, together expressing a more general recognition of technology and innovation.
Other notable mentions include the automobile, telephone and airplane.
And along with technology and innovation, we’re seen by most Americans as being the best in the world at movies and television (less so at sports and food).
Which food most represents America?
It’s hamburgers! Burgers are at the top, coming out ahead of barbecue, picked from a list that also included apple pie and hot dogs, among others.
For seniors, apple pie edges out the others for the food that they think best represents America.
While pizza trails many of the other foods, it was selected by more people in the Northeast than in other regions of the country.
250 celebrations
Just over half of Americans are at least somewhat excited about the upcoming “America 250” celebrations, though few say they are very excited. Half say they will fly the American flag this Fourth of July.
And the more excited they are about America 250, the more likely they are to say they will fly the American flag.
This CBS News/YouGov survey was conducted with a nationally representative sample of 2,150 U.S. adults interviewed between June 23-26, 2026. The sample was weighted to be representative of adults nationwide according to gender, age, race, and education, based on the U.S. Census American Community Survey and Current Population Survey, as well as 2024 presidential vote. The margin of error is ±2.7 points.
