　　A long-held view of the history of the English colonies that became the United States has been that England’s policy toward these colonies before 1763 was dictated by commercial interests and that a change to more imperial policy, dominated by expansionist militarist objective, generated the tensions that ultimately led to the American Revolution.

　　主干：a change to more imperial policy generated the tensions that ultimatelyled to the American Revolution.

　　参考译文： 对于后来成为了美国的英国殖民地，人们一直以来持有下面的观点：1.在1763年之前，英国对于这些殖民地的政策被经济利益所支配。2.之后在扩张主义的军事目标的左右下转向了一种帝国政策，这样形成了一种紧张局势，并最终导致了美国革命。

　　翻译点拨： 先理清楚句子的结构，保证理解的正确。断开后再根据中文的表达习惯进行调整。
