In pics: Americans in 2017 (8)

Traders work at the New York Stock Exchange in New York, the United States, Jan. 25, 2017. The Dow Jones Industrial Average on Jan. 25 closed above the psychological mark of 20,000 points for the first time ever, while the other two major indices also finished at record highs. From Las Vegas' shooting spree to Manhattan's truck attack, from Texas' Hurricane Harvey to California's wildfires, from the advancing bull stock market to once-in-a-century total solar eclipse across U.S., seventeen photos covered the impressive moments of Americans through out the year. They were typical faces of the Americans, epitomizing the year of 2017 and reflecting the duplicity of their lives. (Xinhua/Li Rui)
