中国文化类英语作文(汇总20篇)

暑假刚过完一半，学校发来通知让每人写一篇关于戏曲的征文活动。

戏曲，对于我一个小学四年级的学生来说，熟悉而又莫生。熟悉的是在我们村子里，常见到老爷爷和老奶奶们经常晚上在收音机边听戏，也在电视上看到各种戏曲节目。而莫生的是，戏曲到底是什么东西，我一概而又不知。在我的印象中我的家乡每年三月三的庙会时就会请来几台大戏，一唱就是几天。我整天跟着爸爸妈妈去看戏，目地是为了到庙会上买衣服、买吃的、买玩的，有谁到戏台边看呀！只有一些老年人在那里看。我还觉得他们很老土，赶不上时代的潮流。打死我都不会去看那老掉牙的玩意。

这些天由于要写文章。我也试着接触起了戏曲。还和爷爷聊聊戏曲，又在网上查阅关于戏曲的内容。原来戏曲源远流长，是我国的经典。不同的戏曲有不同的风格和特色。它让人赏心悦目，其情节有的催人泪下，有的拔奋人心，多姿多彩，出神入化。

就拿我在电视上这几天看的梨园春节目来说，节目中有的老人七八十岁了也能在舞台展现出他们的艺术魅力。有的才四五六岁的孩子，一个人穿红戴绿的，也能把人物演视的活灵活现。

当我们细心欣赏我们的戏曲时，我们就会发现它犹如一个个精彩的历史故事，将历史的画卷一一展现在我们的面前，将我们带入历史的隧道。让我们身临其境、感叹不己。

同过这段时间的接触，我觉得我已经慢慢的喜欢上了戏曲。时不时的自己也能啍上几句。作为我们新一代的接班人，我们要多去欣赏我们中华民族的传统文化艺术，让它永远发扬光大、代代流传。

中国的传统文化丰富多彩，有京剧、茶、诗、词、饮食、画。。。。。。但人们接触最多的还是节日。中国的传统节日多得数不清，清明节、端午节、中秋节、重阳节。。。。。。第一线一个节日的背后都有数不尽的故事。如，春节放鞭炮是为了驱赶年怪，端午吃粽子是为了纪念大诗人屈原。。。。。。此外，篆刻、剪纸等把我的祖国装点得绚丽多彩。暑假里，我还在奥运会开幕式上看到了古代的指南针——司南、蔡伦发明的造纸术、中国人的造字等许多传统文化。做一个中国人真自豪啊！

中国传统扇文化有着深厚的文化底蕴，是中华民族文化的一个集成部分，它与竹文化、道教文化、儒家文化有着密切关系。历来中国有"制扇王国"之称。

在夏天，热了就打开空调、吹风扇。使我想起了一年夏天，在参观故宫时满头大汗。我的心中产生了疑问，故宫中生活的皇帝和皇后怎么乘凉呢？

在“宫中好乘凉”的活动中，故宫老师为我们解答了一下。原来故宫四周有护城河，围绕着故宫四周。在古代他们会把窗户打开，让风吹进来叫做支窗，他们也会穿凉快的衣服，喝茶解暑……

让我印象最深的是：他们使用扇子扇风，有中国人发明的圆扇和团扇。也有古代少见的折扇，为什么在古代时期折扇很少呢？因为折扇是日本人发明的，起初先传到朝鲜，再传到中国。

说了这么多，终于到了激动人心的时刻，我们一起在圆扇上画兰花。大家画的兰花颜色各不同，有的画蓝色的、有的画红色的、而我我画的是粉色的花瓣，刚开始大家都在报纸上练习画兰花，练好画兰花后，大家都开始在自己的扇子上画兰花。

手里拿着自己亲自制作的扇子扇风，感觉好凉快！仿佛回到了古代，体会到了古代人在宫中乘凉好方法，扇子代表着古代的历史而且环保……

秦兵马俑是我国重要的历史文物，据说是杨培安老先生在挖井时无意中发现的。秦兵马俑位于西安的陵东的博物馆，它规模宏大，气势雄伟，目前已经发现了三个俑坑，其中一号俑坑最大，有50个篮球场那么大，出土的兵马俑有一千多个，估计共埋有六千多个兵马俑。古代认为

阴阳相通

，阴间和阳间是一样的，因此秦始皇在13岁登基时希望自己去世后能有一支强大的地下军队保护自己和自己的江山社稷，于是下令造了和真人一样大的兵马俑。可惜的是，许多出土的兵马俑已经破损了。

二号和三号俑坑虽然小了一些，但因为坑比较深，所以出土的陶俑相对比较完整。兵马俑不仅拥有宏大的规模，而且品种也十分繁多，将军俑身材魁梧，有的仰首视天，有的低头含额，好像在思考如何战胜敌手。

武士俑杀气腾腾;中级吏官俑忠心于怀;文官俑捻着胡须，好像下一秒就会诗兴大发;跪射俑单膝跪地，好像一箭射出去就会旗开得胜;那些小马驹儿，身材和真的马一般大小，那跃跃欲试的样子，好像一声令下就会腾空而起与敌人拼个你死我活。仔细观看，每个兵马俑五官、身材、神态都各不相同。据说，他们都是按照秦始皇军营里的将士们塑造出来的，难怪这样弱栩栩如生。规模宏大，威武端庄、种类繁多

秦兵马俑真是世界雕刻史上的一大壮举压。

华夏五千年，二十四史间，人才辈出惊世绝，诸子百家齐争鸣。不必说中国古老传说，不必说商代的甲骨铭文，光是中国的着作文化就能让我们骄傲良多，铭表，词赋，杂说，诗歌……

“春色满园关不住，一枝红杏出墙来”，诗中的景物，诗中的春景，在叶绍翁的笔下幻化的万紫千红，这是春的灵感，这是对生命力的赞歌。“小荷才露尖尖角，早有蜻蜓立上头。”诗中的荷花，诗中的夏花，在杨万里的笔下瑰丽多姿，这是夏的标志，是夏的生命。“一道残阳铺水中，半江瑟瑟半江红。”诗中的江面，诗中的秋色，在白居易的笔下瑰丽多姿，这是秋的精神，这是秋的天籁。“千山鸟飞绝，万径人踪灭。”诗中的雪，在柳宗元的笔下漫天飞舞，这是冬的灵魂，是冬的乐曲。

诗，是在尘埃中绽放的绝世之花;诗，是中国华夏千年的不老传说;诗，是中国古文化幻化万千绮丽的亮点。在历史中，在传说里，诗是值得我们骄傲的亮点。

[有关中国文化的作文素材

天刚蒙蒙亮，天空从东方一点儿一点儿泛着鱼肚色，今天的旅游目的地是颐和园，我起得很早，叫起了爸爸妈妈，我们洗漱完就出发了。

我们在路上看到了万里长城，长城下面的树棵棵苍翠欲滴，一阵风吹来，两棵树结伴跳起了著名的舞蹈——探戈，但是它们想跳的好，也是梦里吃蜜——想的甜，万里长城都弯弯曲曲，像此起彼伏的蛇一样，这应该是世界上最大、最长的蛇了。

我们进行了四个小时的路程，终于到颐和园了，先映到眼帘的是走廊，走廊长达几百米，走廊上面有几十幅画，每一幅画都不一样，多姿多彩、五彩缤纷、姿态不一，各有各的美，每一幅画我都看得如痴如醉，很惬意。

我觉得颐和园令我印象最深刻的还是那片湖水，湖水清澈见底，宛如一面翡翠，映着天，映着云，映着桥，映着山，湖水是恬静的，恬静得没有一丝涟漪，就像是一个准备出嫁的姑娘，捧着一层薄薄的轻纱，那么温柔，那么羞涩，下面还有一些彩石，当太阳照在彩石上的时候就银光闪闪、波光粼粼。

在郁郁葱葱枝繁叶茂的树林上面，有着一座金碧辉煌，富丽堂皇的塔，那座塔是真的耀眼，感觉看得我眼睛就要瞎了，从头上到脚下，没有一点地方是其他颜色。

站在那座山的边上低头，看着杂草丛生的树木，抬头看就是蓝如大海的天空，向前方远眺，是一座十七拱桥，这座桥是独一无二的，上面雕着几百多个猴子的雕像，那些猴子动作灵活，没有一个动作是重复的。

现在我们的大自然湖光山色，这么美!是不是更该爱护它呢?

春 节 我最喜欢传统节日中的春节，因为它是中国民间最隆重的传统节日。在农历正月初一，又叫阴历年，俗称“过年”，“新年”。

每年过年，街上挂满了红红的灯笼，彩旗飘飘。商场更是人山人海，购买年货，可热闹了。

我每年都是会回爷爷奶奶家陪他们一起过年，妈妈和奶奶准备了丰盛的食物，听着外面有许多“砰、砰、砰”的鞭炮声，每个小朋友都穿上了漂亮的新衣服，大人们露出了满意的笑容。爸爸给我买了许多礼花和鞭炮，到了晚上，我就让爷爷陪我放鞭炮，那心情别提有多美！到了晚会开始时，妈妈他们在包饺子，妈妈说过年就要守岁不许睡觉，我则一边吃水果一边观看晚会，精彩的表演把我们逗得哈哈大笑，心想：要是天天都过年该多好啊！

中国的传统节日真是丰富多彩，它是中国的文化。我了解的传统节日还有：端午节、中秋节等。这些传统节日给我们带来了欢乐和幸福还有团圆，作为我们新一代要加强学习，大力弘扬中国的这些传统文化。

今年暑假，我和爸爸妈妈一起来到了北京。我迫不及待的要去闻名世界的皇家园林——颐和园去看一看。

我们乘车来到了颐和园的北宫门，进入颐和园后，首先来到的是苏州街。它全长三百多米，有六十多间店铺，茶楼、酒店、染坊、钱庄、药铺及小吃店等，一应俱全。真实的再现了中国二百多年前的商业状况。

从苏州街出来，经过智慧海来到佛香阁。佛香阁依山而建是一座八面三层四重檐的阶梯型建筑。它气势磅礴，站在佛香阁上向下望颐和园的美景尽收眼底。

走下佛香阁经过排云殿就来到了长廊，它全长728米共237间，建筑堪称精美。廊间的每根房梁上都绘有精美的彩画，共有1400多幅，这么多的彩画没有一幅是相同的，不禁让人叹之。

通过长廊来到昆明湖，阵阵清凉迎面扑来。昆明湖的水碧绿清澈，十七孔桥就在湖面上，桥长150米，宽8米，是园中最大的石桥。湖面上几只小船在闲逸地飘荡，仿佛把你带入了一幅美丽的画卷中。

颐和园的美景举不胜数，真不愧是世界闻名的皇家园林。

导语：在现代,每到逢年过节之时,许多人还是保留着贴剪纸的习俗,尤其是在北方地区。剪纸艺术意义深远,起源于中国,下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

Dear Eric,

You want to know about Chinese paper cut. Here Im glad to tell you something about it.

Chinese paper cut has a long history of over 2,000 years. It can be seen in different parts of China. Many people, no matter young or old, are fond of it.

People in northern part of China do well in making paper cut. They cut paper into different shapes, like birds, animals, flowers and so on.

I think Chinese paper cuts are not only beautiful but also very useful. People usually put them on doors or windows when they celebrate something happy, especially for the Spring Festival. More and more people are interested in it. I hope youll come to China to see more Chinese paper cuts one day.

Best wishes

【参考译文】

亲爱的Eric，

你想知道关于中国剪纸的。在这里我很高兴告诉你一些关于它的事。

中国剪纸有着悠久的历史，有2000多年的历史。在中国的不同地区可以看到它。许多人，不管是年轻人还是老年人，都喜欢它。

中国北方地区的人们在造纸时做的很好。他们把纸张切成不同的形状，像鸟、动物、花等等。

我认为中国剪纸不仅漂亮而且非常有用。人们通常把他们放在门或窗户上，当他们庆祝的东西，特别是春节的时候。越来越多的人对它感兴趣。我希望你能来中国看更多的中国剪纸一天。

中国传统文化博大精深，有舞狮子、风筝、中国织绣……但我喜欢的却是其中的陶瓷，中国传统文化——陶瓷。||| 陶瓷可以分好几种，如日用陶瓷、卫生陶瓷、艺术陶瓷等等。我通过网上了解了一些陶瓷的制作过程，现在让我向大家介绍一下吧。

一、练土， 将泥土中的空气挤压出来。泥土中的气泡会令作品在烧制时爆裂 ，前功尽弃。

二、成形||| 用手捏或拉坯等各种方法，做出心目中的形状。

三、泥坯装饰||| 如果你要为你的作品进行上泥釉、化妆土、剔花等装饰程序，就要在泥坯呈皮革干时进行。

四、风干，完成的作品在架上自然风干，一般一星期左右可以完全干燥。

五、素烧 ，将作品先进行900度左右的素烧。

六、上釉， 素烧后就可以为作品上釉。

七、釉烧 ， 将作品进行最后一个步骤——釉烧。一般在1100--1260度左右。

还记得，有一次爸爸带我去南宋官窑博物馆玩。南宋官窑博物馆不仅让我知道了许多关于陶瓷的知识，看到许多古代出土的陶瓷品，还让我亲身体验了一下陶瓷制作过程中的其中一项，那就是——成形。首先，走来了一位叔叔，他的手上拿着一块干巴巴的泥巴，然后那位叔叔走到了我的身边，教了我一些让泥巴成形的玩法和方法。可看看容易，做做难啊!叔叔手里的泥巴可乖了，但一到我手里就不听话了，我让它宽，它窄，但当我让它窄时，它却又宽，真不知道泥巴的心里是怎么想的。

中国传统文化数也数不清，每一种传统文化都有着许多许多的属于它的故事呢!

（在中国还没有什么成功的文化模式，用以打造起一个核心价值观之前。我们应携手同心提升自己的文化认同感。尽管我们的这个文化目前气息微弱。）

每逢除夕，像我这种中老年人都会像饲场的肉鸡一样趋聚于每一块荧屏面前，投入一场混着水饺与红酒气息的深红色狂欢。我的狂欢发自内心。八三年首届春晚时我已经十六岁了。而当时的韩寒刚满百天，郭敬明还没有出生。几十年来，无论再忙再累也要坐下来，以看春晚的方式沉醉于伟大祖国的统一团结，亲如一家。潜移默化间对于我早已上升为一份关乎爱国情怀的坚守。似乎只要有“春晚”在，便不会像乌克兰一样分裂；像前苏联一样解体（而事实也未必如此吧？）。说明我们是整体认同的。我们会每逢除夕坐下来团聚，吃一顿“春晚”团圆饭。

主持人拜年的贺词，祖国各地各行各业的寒暄问候。美妙的语境与精彩的歌舞如热气蒸腾的团圆饭，令我陶醉。颜色气味俱佳。谁还会在乎它的内容呢？自然许多人会在乎呢。

今天消遣一下姜昆，咱们就拿他过正月初六啦。

今年春晚“德云社”没有露面，而姜昆终于冒了个泡。多少有点儿意外。时隔三十年，华语观众终于在他的有生之年看到了《新虎口遐想》。虽然并非虎年，“虎”却出洞了。看来老姜有点儿等不及了。《新虎》的内容还那么精彩。里面有熟悉的“手机围观”，有对“操东北口音的专家”的调侃，更有“老虎苍蝇一起打”直扣时政主题的点睛手笔。说真的老姜是个人才，能编善说。这一点毋庸置疑。而这样一来，疑问就更大了，不是吗？三十年呐！！身为相声界领头大哥，这厮空有一身本领，却任由“赵本山们”、“周立波们”刨着相声的“活儿”，霸占着相声的舞台。任由自己的徒子徒孙儿被排挤到电视剧里跑龙套。让“赵本山们”撑破肚子。自己却一连三十年都不肯再说一段相声，不肯放一个响屁。真是令人发指。说道小剧场里郭德纲的成功。那条路是被生活所迫，硬闯出来的。充满荆棘和艰辛。最主要的是老郭爱相声，有匠心。如今他得到了回报。他在舞台上耕耘不辍，舞台回报给他玩意儿的生命力。姜昆也爱相声。但他不得不更改了初衷。因为他更热衷于当官，热衷于攒弄手中的“资源”。当郭德纲在小剧场里“口无遮拦”挥洒自如，尽情驾驭观众情绪的时候，姜昆则龟缩在自己办公室的老板椅里，缄默着倾听着策划着。我严重怀疑他的手套早已弄脏了。我也有预感到，这或是他人生的最后一场相声。我严重怜悯他那长达三十年的静默期。他不敢说，怕招惹了上面。他不敢讲，又怕观众们噓他。他是聪明人，能够踩稳了钢丝无惊无险。唯一不能做的就是开口说相声。这份尴尬的处境有点儿像《五虎断魂枪》里的沙子龙。“功夫早搁下了”“已经放了肉”。三十年来，姜昆撂下了功夫，拾起了魔戒。就像那个可悲的咕噜一样，沦落成魔戒的奴仆。这么多年闲坐在太师椅上既不敢说又不能动，也够难为他这个天生的人精儿了。眼巴巴看着从前不被主流相声圈子接纳的郭德纲把德云社从天津开到北京，把郭德纲相声从小剧场说到春晚现场，甚至登上了人民大会堂。眼看着郭德纲从一条蚯蚓变成一条龙。姜昆却闲踞在太师椅上，任由自己掌管的相声舞台让位于拙劣的“东北地方戏”。充当着毫无作为，甚至拆自家台砸自家场的“脑残大哥”形象。扮演着一个不作为的官员以及一个从不开口的著名相声演员。你说图的啥？还能图个啥？全国人民都看到了那个“咕噜”跪趴在昏暗洞穴的深处，用黑色尖长的舌头贪婪地舔舐着掌心里的魔戒。突兀的妖化了的双眼精光四射……

诚然，郭德纲相声只适合在小剧场里边说。原因你懂的。“开心麻花”也浅薄得很，难成大器。就拿今年这段小品来说。谁家“岳父”会这么不要脸？这种矫情的段子如果放在小剧场可以博取观众一乐。可春晚节目必须寓教于乐。再说大过年的，容易勾起某些小心眼的丈夫对妻子娘家的不满。容易鸡鸡碎碎生是非。你看大过年的扯这个，这帮“麻花”们，得多么不懂事。这样算来，如果姜昆肯回归，客观上也没有什么阻力的。央视春晚也没有理由不欢迎他。喜欢他的观众还是大多数。我就算其中一位。可事实上他几十年都没露过面，似乎并不领这个情啊。

对姜昆来说，我以为能够逼迫他再上春晚抛头露面的唯一原因，就是现下越勒越紧的政治气候。也许，他觉得贪官污吏抓得差不多了，讽刺一下也没什么大不了的；或者，他觉得离自己倒霉的日子也不远了，再不说一场相声。恐怕这辈子也没机会了。毕竟姜昆是个有才能的相声演员。然而那么多年都不出来说相声。我们应该惋惜他。或许他也趁着夜色在自家后院苦练贯口儿呢？就像《断魂枪》里的沙子龙。图什么呀？撒尿和泥图个乐，图个眼前的苟且。几百年之后，中国相声史或许会有关于郭德纲寥寥几笔的记载，未必会有人知道姜昆的存在。因为他什么也没做，凭什么要被记载下来？我就不信，老姜并不傻，他会甘心情愿于这种结局。庸碌无为中虚度了三十年人生最好的时光。没有施展出自己的长处，让中国相声史镌刻下自己的名字。贯穿姜昆的艺术史，从一个北京知青、业余文工团员起步，最后坐到“说唱团团长”“中国曲艺家协会党组书记”的太师椅。至始至终，体制的光环都在庇佑着他，成全着他。所谓成也体制败也体制。这恰与郭德纲的命运轨迹截然相反。怪只怪造化弄物，体制使人平庸啊。

[思考中国的文化节日作文

中国传统文化——过年风俗

春节俗称“年节”，是中华民族最隆中的传统佳节汉武帝太初元年始，以夏年(农历正月初一为“岁首”(即“年”)，年节的日期由此固定下来，延续至今。年节古称“元旦”。

1911年辛亥革命以后，开始采用公历(阳历)计年，遂称公历1月1日为“元旦”，称农历正月初一为“春节”。岁时节日，亦被称为“传统节日”。它们历史悠久、流传面广，具有极大的普及性、群众性、甚至全民性的特点。年节是除旧布新的日子。年节虽定在农历正月初一，但年节的活动却并不止于正月初一这一天。从腊月二十三(或二十四日)小年节起，人们便开始“忙年”：扫房屋、洗头沐浴、准备年节器具等等。

所有这些活动，有一个共同的主题，即“辞旧迎新”。人们以盛大的仪式和热情，迎接新年，迎接春天。

传说中国古时候有一种叫“年”的怪兽，头长触角，凶猛异常。“年”长年深居海底，每到除夕才爬上岸，吞食牲畜伤害人命。因此，每到除夕这天，村村寨寨的人们扶老携幼逃往深山，以躲避“年”兽的伤害。有一年除夕，从村外来了个乞讨的老人。乡亲们一片匆忙恐慌景象，只有村东头一位老婆婆给了老人些食物，并劝他快上山躲避“年”兽，那老人捋髯笑道：“婆婆若让我在家呆一夜，我必须把‘年’兽撵走。”老婆婆仍然继续劝说，乞讨老人笑而不语。

半夜时分，“年”兽闯进村。它发现村里气氛与往年不一样：村东头老婆婆家，门贴大红纸，屋内烛火通明。“年”兽浑身一抖，怪叫了一声。将近门口时，院内突然传来“砰砰啪啪”的炸响声，“年”浑身战栗，再不敢往前凑了。原来，“年”最怕红色、火光和炸响。这时，婆婆的家门大开，只见院内一位身披红袍的老人在哈哈大笑。“年”大惊失色，狼狈逃蹿了。第二天是正月初一，避难回来的人们见村里安然无恙十分惊奇。这时，老婆婆才恍然大悟，赶忙向乡亲们述说了乞讨老人的许诺。这件事很快在周围村里传开了，人们都知道了驱赶“年”兽的办法。从此每年除夕，家家贴红对联、燃放爆竹;户户烛火通明、守更待岁。初一一大早，还要走亲串友道喜问好。这风俗越传越广，成了中国民间最隆重的传统节日。

春节，守岁放鞭炮贴春联拜年演变起源：春节和新年的概念，最初的含意来自农业，古时人们把谷的生长周期称为“年”，《说文。禾部》：“年，谷熟也”。|在夏商时代产生了夏历，以月亮圆缺的周期为月，一年划分为十二个月，每月以不见月亮的那天为朔，正月朔日的子时称为岁首，即一年的开始，也叫年，年的名称是从周朝开始的，至了西汉才正式固定下来，一向延续到这天。但古时的正月初一被称为“元旦”，直到中国近代辛亥革命胜利后，南京临时政府为了顺应农时和便于统计，规定在民间使用夏历，在政府机关、厂矿、学校和团体中实行公历，以公历的元月一日为元旦，农历的正月初一称春节。

中国传统文化丰富多彩!有猜灯谜、包饺子、舞狮子、剪纸和书法等。其中，我最喜欢的是书法!因为中国的书法博大精深，源远流长。

书法是我国的瑰宝。爸爸告诉我，历代书发家有：欧阳修、颜真卿、柳公权、赵孟頫。他们被称为四体。爸爸曾经带我去看过书法展览，有写得方方正正的楷书，有写得龙飞凤舞的草书。虽然有些我看不懂，但觉得很漂亮。爸爸说，中国的毛笔书法有三千多年的历史，我们要继续发扬光大。所以我有空就向爸爸学习毛笔字，我体会到：一个小小的点，看起来简单，写起来却很难。要是握笔的姿势、用笔的力度不对，字都写不好的。看来写毛笔字也是一门学问。

我为博大精深的中国文化而骄傲，为中国古老的书法艺术而自豪。我爱中国的书法!

夜晚，有些困意，忽然听到远处隐隐传来《鼓浪屿之波》这首歌：鼓浪屿四海茫茫，海水鼓起波浪……这歌声，一下子把我带进了在鼓浪屿上枕着涛声入眠，面向无垠的大海，听着海水一次又一次拍打礁石的美好时光。

沿着环岛的小路，随着不多不少的人流，一棵棵遮天蔽日的大榕树映入我的眼帘，在它粗壮的枝干下，是牢牢贴在石壁上，盘在土路上，尽力地为大榕树汲取养分的树根。在榕树上垂下千万条粗细不一的气根，不知不觉中就长到了一起，像天然的吊床，又像腾空而起的秋千。在绿色的掩映下，开放着一朵又一朵色彩浓烈的鸡蛋花，仿佛在欢迎我们，谁说这不是大自然给我们的恩泽?

慢慢地就走进岛内。一栋又一栋古老的西洋建筑，向我们诉说鼓浪屿的往事，在历史的河流中，我们最终到达日光岩脚下。日光岩是两块孤立的大石头，此刻已将落日，太阳将它的余晖洒在了起伏不平的岩面上，像金色的浪花，轻轻地拍打着鼓浪屿。

登上日光岩顶，鼓浪屿的景色一览无遗。看着长长的海岸线，望着皓月园内雄姿英发的郑成功雕像，想起了当年郑成功抗击侵略者，收复台湾的壮举。我仿佛看见了一个船队，上面挂着“郑”字大旗，浩浩荡荡地向台湾前进;我仿佛看见了郑成功留守日光岩，运筹帷幄、决胜千里;我仿佛看见了侵略者被打得落花流水，坐上船落荒而逃的情景。至今，爱国精神还在守护着这一方水土。

太阳慢慢地沉了下去，与满天的晚霞交相辉映，恰似刚从高炉里倾泻而出的钢水，给傍晚的鼓浪屿蒙一层橙色的面纱，使鼓浪屿更加幽静神秘。太阳将它最后的万丈霞光洒下向了大海，洒向了郑成功守护着的海岸线。大海金光四射，游船恰似在金液中流动的金粒，被落日悄然刷成了金色，在大海中漂流着。西天的云彩被太阳镶上了一层华丽的金边，犹如一块价值连城的金镶玉宝石，散发出华丽的光芒。日沉西天，落日红得像一个咸鸭蛋黄，仿佛马上要流淌下来。落日，慢慢地沉了下去。

“鼓浪屿四周海茫茫，海水鼓起波浪……”琴园里传出了《鼓浪屿之波》的琴声。我带着对鼓浪屿满满地美好回忆，进入了甜美的梦乡。

春联，又叫“春贴”、“门对”，它以对仗工整、简洁精巧的文字描绘美好形象，抒发美好愿望，是汉族特有的文学形式，是中华民族的文化瑰宝。它分为上、下联和横批，是对联的一种。原先春联题写在桃木板上叫“桃符”，长六寸、宽三寸，桃木板上书写着降鬼大神“神荼”、“郁垒”的名字。到了宋代，桃符由桃木板改为纸张，叫“春贴纸”和“春联”。桃木的颜色是红的，红色有吉祥、避邪的意思，因此春联大都用红纸书写。传统春联是用毛笔书写的，但亦有印制的春联。每逢春节，无论城市还是农村，家家户户都要精选大红春联贴于门上，辞旧迎新，增加喜庆的节日气氛。

春节前，有一次妈妈和我谈心说：“张喆，你学写毛笔字也有半年了，不知写得如何?不如今年咱们家过年的对联就由你来写吧!”我毫不犹豫的答应了。于是，再去写字班时，我就和老师说了。老师说：“只要坚持不懈、努力练字，到过年时肯定会写一副好春联的。”从那以后，我每天放学后，在完成正常功课的前提下，我又去写字班练字一个多小时。就这样，每天坚持不停的练字、练字。

在腊月二十六这天，老师在街上写对联，也让我在红纸上正式写，我写了两副，老师挑了一副最好的让我带回家，并写了一个“福”字送给我。我是用篆体写的对联，上联是“友善富强甜蜜蜜”，下联是“文明诚信喜羊羊”，横批是“四季发财”。晚上妈妈下班回到家，我把对联拿出来让妈妈看，她一看非常高兴，于是就把对联摆好照了张相，发在微信的“朋友圈”里，有很多人点赞、评论。

在年三十这天，爸爸把我写的对联贴在了我家的门口。春节期间，亲朋好友来我家串亲、访友，看到后都夸我，说我写的字矫若游龙、爽爽有神。还有大姑和妈妈的同事向我索要对联，说要明年春节往她们家门上贴。今年这个春节我过得既有意义，又开心，真高兴!

我决定在今年一年的时间里要加紧认真地练字，争取明年写的更好，多写几种字体的对联送给亲朋好友。

“神奇，神秘，神农架。”没错，我正在赞美的，就是我美丽的家乡——神农架。

神农架林区，简称神农架。它位于湖北省西部边陲，是中国唯一以林区命名的县级行政区。可它为什么叫“神农架”呢?相传很久以前，华夏始祖炎帝神农为了采一种长在高山上的稀有药材，就架起了木头做成梯子爬上去采药，为了纪念他，以后的人们便把这里叫做神农架。

为什么说它神奇呢!因为它从1982年开始就被列为国家级保护区，它一直是生物学家们关注的焦点，素有“物种基因库”、“濒危动物避难所”等美誉。而且保护区内森林覆盖率达到惊人的96%，真不愧是自然王国。

神农架的神奇还体现在它一年四季秀丽的风景中。春天，杜鹃花节一到，高山上就像被染上了姹紫嫣红的“颜料”，一眼望去，一片片花海好像上大地衣服上一幅幅艳丽的画，让人不禁陶醉其中。夏天，这里就变成了避暑游玩的胜地，有名的景观当然要算金猴岭的飞瀑流泉了，它犹如一条条玉带挂在山林中，带走了人们的暑热。秋天来了，遍地红叶吸引着许多游客的脚步。这里的树木多种多样，颜色也不一样，尤其是那些红叶像云一般集聚在山上，还有绿色、黄色……，就算是红色也分很多种。这些五彩缤纷的颜色，再加上清新的空气和流淌的溪水，让人仿佛置身梦境之中。等到了冬天，纷纷扬扬的雪花飘起来，将森林打扮得漂亮极了，银白色的枝条在雪花中轻轻摇摆，简直就是一个童话的世界。

说它神秘，当然要从著名的“野人谷”谈起，这里有不计其数的关于野人的记载，吸引着一批又一批的探险家和科考队前来观光、考察，虽然，时至今天也没有足够让人信服的证据证明野人的存在。但是，他们发现野人的毛发，行踪等痕迹，使野人的存在与否变得更加神秘。

还有一个老爷爷叫张金星，他从1994年就开始在神农架寻找野人，他下定决心不找到野人不剃胡子。十多年了他写了数十篇有关野人的论文，一共采集了100多根野人的毛发，发现了3000多个可疑脚印。他自称多次遇到野人。以后，如果你到神农架来玩儿，说不定就可以见到野人哦!

这就是我神奇、神秘的家乡——神农架，欢迎大家来游玩。

我从来都向往莫高窟，向往它的故事。

公元366年，一个叫乐的和尚来到敦煌莫高窟，时值傍晚，云游四方的他想找个地方安歇。当他不经意昂头仰望峰顶时，看到三危山金光灿烂，像有千佛显灵。激动万分的他手持锡杖，向金光虔诚一拜，决定在此筑窟造像。于是，越来越多的人，上至帝王，下至平民，都将自己的信仰筑成一个个洞窟。年复一年，这里成了名副其实的佛教圣地。

如今，我就站在它面前，看着依山而筑、蜿蜒十几里的莫高窟。信步跨过洞窟的门槛，只见光线暗淡的洞窟中，不论是墙壁还是龛顶，甚至地面上，到处都绘有婀娜多姿的飞天、姿态各异的佛。几乎每个洞窟都有释迦牟尼及其大弟子的塑像，表情泰然自若，栩栩如生。据说敦煌莫高窟区域内有洞窟700多座，为什么古人要建筑如此众多的洞窟，而里面的内容又千篇一律呢?

仅仅是因为乐和尚所见的“佛光普照”吗?

不是的。我想那只是一个开始。古时的人们为了平安幸福，在精神上需要有所寄托，于是，宗教应运而生。人们把所有的愿望都寄托于佛祖，为表达自己的虔诚，在这里凿筑一个个洞窟，拓宽自己的信仰道路。这也许就是精神的皈依吧。

走出又走进一个个洞窟，我的大脑渐趋恍惚。光影、色彩间的匆匆变幻，似乎将我带入一个又一个时空。之前所见是青褐浑厚的色泽和豪放粗犷的笔触，此时忽转变为精细流畅的工笔，瑰丽的色彩，妖娆的造型，仿佛壁画上的人物、鸟兽、繁花一下子被注入了鲜活生命似的，所有的雕塑都像是有了脉搏和呼吸。我屏住呼吸，无法想象当年那么多的能工巧匠在如此荒凉干涸的地方，经年累月地雕刻、上色、绘画，忘我地描摹心中的佛祖和人间幻景的情景，我也无法感知曾经在这里长久驻扎甚至终老的能工巧匠的艰辛、寂寞与虔诚……

恍惚中又回到现实，我不知不觉走入第148窟。正对窟门，便是佛祖释迦牟尼的涅像：侧身躺卧佛坛之上，两肩舒张，双足合拢，左手很自然地搭在身上，右手则垫在头部之下，表情自然，面含笑意，双眼微张，泰然自若。传说佛祖在向百千弟子讲经说法时，打坐的身体忽然如我所描绘的样子躺下。弟子们十分惊慌，叫师父也不应，结果众多弟子失声痛哭，只有几个年长弟子面目安详，喜悦地为佛祖恭贺：佛祖涅，代表着他将与天地融为一体，与日月同辉……

在世人看来，佛祖的涅神秘而不可信。世俗的人，谁又能对佛家和佛事了解得清楚呢?谁又相信成佛之人的精神和肉体能够如此和谐统一，进而升华到一个超自然的境地呢?大多数现代人的肉身被繁复琐事所围困，心灵被阴郁烦忧所笼罩，或拼命工作，或埋头苦读，肉体和精神都受到折磨。而当我们看到、想到涅的佛祖时，不知我们的心灵会不会受到震撼。

莫高窟的历史和文化内涵太深，底蕴太厚重，只有虔诚的心灵，仔细体察的眼睛和穿梭历史时空的思索，才无愧于这片佛教圣地。

The difference between chinese and western culture

With the rapidly challging word, people throughout the world have found it increasingly necessary to minimize the rate of misunderstanding due to miscommunication in their contacts with another. In the oast most human beings were born, lived, and died within a limited geoographical area, never encountering people of other cultural backgrounds. It might be said that technological advances have been most effective in creating the borderless word, the global community. As our world shrinks and its inhabitants become interdependent, people from remot cultures increasingly come into contact on a daily basis. It is no longer hard to find situations in which membes of ince isolared groups of people. Now these people may live thousands of miles away or right next door to each other. So all the people are faced with the challenge of understand this world. So when the east meet west, there are many problems. Some problems are listed as follows.

First of all, the way of eating. All huaman beings have certain basic needs. Our fundamental needs for things that keep us alive. This is the physioligical need. All individuals must eat in order to survive. But what people eat, when they eat, and the manners in which they eat are all patterned by culture. No society views everything in its environment that is edible and might provide nurishment as food. Americans eat oysters but not snail. The French eat snails but not locusts. The Jews eat fish but not pork. The Hindus eat pork but not beef. The Russiand eat beef but not snake. We all have ideas about what kinds of food are good to eat. We also have ideas about what kinds of food are bad to eat. As a result, people from one culture often think the food that people from another culture eat are disgusting or nauseating. Dislike is not the only reason why some culture will not eat a certain food. In some clture, certain foods are taboo. Sometimes the food taboos may be so strong thrat just the thought of eating forbidden foods can cause an indivdual to feel ill. We can also find culture difference in way of bring up children treating the early, greeting each other, saying and spending money before other people do in everyday, but in some English-speaking countries, people do not agree with us. We chinese may enjoy something that is not usually consider as edible by the English-speaking people. Generally we perfer to have thing hot and much emphasis on the taste. We eat from one plate when we are eating with others, and we like to seat one by one, and in the shape of a round. On the opposite, some English-speaking contries, most of the people like to seat in two rows, two people face to face. They have their own plate. On the aspect of table manners, there are many differences between chinese and English-speaking people. For example, in some Englishi-speaking countries, Bread plates are to the left of the main plate, beverage glasses are to the right. Salad fork, knife and soup spoon are further from the

main plate than the main course knife, fork and spoon. When eating bread rolls, break off a piece before buttering. Use the knife only to butter the bread, not to cut it. They should not start eating before your host does or instructs to do so. At larger meals, it is considered okay to start eating once others have been served. When finished, place the knife and fork together at five o’clock with the fork on the left. It is considered rude to answer the telephone at the table. If need to take an urgent call, excuse self and go outside. Try to eat all the food you are served. But in China, the table manners are different. Chinese traditionally eat rice from a small bowl held in the left hand. The rice bowl is raised to the mouth and the rice pushed into the mouth using the chopsticks. Some Chinese find it offensive to scoop rice from the bowl using a spoon. If rice is served on a plate, as is more common in the West, it is acceptable and more practical to eat it with a fork or spoon. The thumb must always be above the edge of the bowl. The host should always make sure the guests drinks are sufficiently full. One should not pour for ones self, but should offer to pour for a neighbor. When your drink is being poured, you should say "thank you" and tap fingers on the table to show appreciation. When people wish to clink drinks together in the form of a cheer, it is important to observe that younger members should clink the edge of their drink below the edge of an elder to show respect.

Secondly, the way of communication. Form birth to death, communication plays an integral part in our life. There are some language problems, including the different styles of using language such as direct, indirect; expansive, succinct; argumentative, conciliatory; instrumental, harmonnizing; and so on. These different styles can lead to wrong interpretations of intent and evaluation of insincerity, aggreeiveness, deviousness, or arrogance, among other. The misinterpretation nonverbal signs and symbols such as gestures, postures, and other body movements. It is a definite communication barrier. But it is possible to learn the meanings of these observable message,usually in informal rather ways. It is more difficult to understand the less obvious unspoken codes of the other cultures. Language, as the carrier of culture, is created during the process of human beings’ productive labor and serves as the tool of communication to convey the message between people. However, it has been endowed with magic and power in particular language acts. As the old saying goes, troubles come out of the tongue. Superstitious people think that the language itself can bring about fortune or misfortune so that taboos to restrict the use of language are created. Anyone who violates them will get punishment, whereas those who faithfully obey the restrictions of language taboo will get protection. Furthermore, linguistic taboos change with the development of society .The paper firstly analyzes the evolution of linguistic taboo. It is indicated in the paper that linguistic taboo exists in almost every aspect of people’s life and is a universal social phenomenon in China and Britain. Both Chinese and

English cultures are in agreement about linguistic taboos such as pronunciation taboo, and vocabulary taboo. However, influenced by different cultural backgrounds, ideologies and the concepts of value, Chinese and English linguistic taboos also have differences, as is discussed in the paper from the aspects of taboo subjects, taboo numbers and names. At last, this paper puts forward two effective ways of avoiding taboo, that is, using euphemism and having a good knowledge of the taboo culture. And this discussion would help English learners improve their ability of cross-cultural communication and achieve better communicational effects. For example, During the feudal times, people were not equal to the rulers and were suppressed by their superiors. The distinction between the upper and the lower classes was also reflected in the evaluation of the language used by them respectively. The words of upper class used were considered good and elegant while those used by the lower class were regarded as vulgar and indecent and should be avoided in the speech of ladies and gentlemen. In modern society, as a result of the development of science and technology, many natural phenomena are no longer mysterious. Human beings not only constantly improve their abilities to exploit the world where they are living through their great wisdom and knowledge, but also make efforts to explore the extraterrestrial world. Science has much more say in today’s society. Thereby, the superstitious elements in linguistic taboos decrease while those reflecting spiritual civilization increase.

In short, by comparison, we can find that both Chinese and English communication reflect people’s psychology for good will, for safety and fortune and pleasantness. The Chinese and English people restrict their words and deeds through taboos, trying to keep a harmonious relationship between human and nature, or between people and society. They are a reflection of people’s pursuit of freedom and equality.

The most important, the different way of family structure, family values and family education. Family structure is the big difference between east and west, traditional chinese, amony many other Asians, repect their elders and feel a deep sense of duty toward them. Children repay their parents` sacrifices by being successful and supporting them in old age. This is accepted as a natural part of life in China. In contrast, taking care of aged parents is often viewed as a tremendous burden in the English-speaking countries, where aging and family support are not honored highly. In some English-speaking countries are still extrmely family-oriented. They are dedicated to helping their children and will sacrifice greatly for their children to get an edcuation. In turn, the children are devoted to their parents, who often live nearby. Grown children who go away and leave the country for the economic reasons typically send large parts of their salary home to their parents and the rest of the family. Or in some Asia, any decisions or actions are done from family consideration, not individual desires. Peope`s behavior is judged on whether it

brings shame or pride to the family. The children are trained to rely on their families, to honor elderly people, and to fear foreigners. And many of them think that their actions in this life will influence their status in the next life.

The way of family edcation is also the different. We all know the family education is the elementary education for children. Many serious problems have appeared in our education system in recent years. Almost everyone has realized the importance of solving these problems and many people have presented a lot of valuable suggestions. There are many types of family education in the world and each of them shows distinctive features and is closely responsive to its culture. And American family education is the most famous one among them. There are great differences in the concepts of education, methods of education and results of education between East family education and West family education. In some English-speaking countries, parents’ aims are to train their children to have the ability of adapting to environmental variety and the ability of living independently. Based on this concept, most American parents emphasize more to train their children’s ability of independence once they are born. They generally believe that children’s growth must rely on their own experiences, because they think that children should form a self-supporting will and the capacity to live independently since their childhood. And the capacity comes from the training in the early age. The so-called training contains many aspects, such as work, temper will, patience, the spirit of hard work, etc. However, the most fundamental training is the ability of adapting to hard conditions. Through the process of work, children will form the labor sense, learn some work skills and form a habit of labor. Besides, children can learn how to overcome difficulties, temper their willpower, develop their talents and skills, rich their knowledge, and form a habit of hard work and thrifty by working in hard conditions. It is just in the unconsciously process that children will obtain the independent survivability and take the responsibilities for the society. Compared with some English-speaking countries, Chinese parents have a very different concept of children’s education. Some parents in China only care about whether the children have a promising future, a good job, a good life or not. Based on these expectations, the majority of parents feel that their responsibility for their children is to create as good conditions as possible they can so that the children will not worry about anything in the future. Chinese parents would like to provide everything what they can for their children in the process of children’s growth. In short, they would like to sacrifice anything if their children can live better with their help. Therefore, in the process of children’s growth, the most important thing the parents concerning is to developing their children’s intellect, except for caring children’s daily life. In order to make their children have a good performance in study, become outstanding, or even become a famous person in the future, they would not let children do anything except studying. As for the children’s independence, civic awareness and their ability adapting to the

society in the future, they consider little or not at all. From these aspects we can find the obvious differences of family education between America and China.

When we faced with those difference between West and East, we should give some advice to solve these problems. According to the three big difference that pointed, we should find some way to deal with these problems.

We can study other languages and learn to expect in nonvwebal forms and other cultural aspects. We can train ourselves to meet intercultural encounters with more attention to situation details. We can use an investigative approach rather than stereotypes and preconceptions. We can gradually expose ourselves to differences so that they become less threatening. We can even learn to lower our tension level when needed to advoid triggering defensive reactions. The overall goal should be to achieve intercultural communication competence.

So the ideal solution to reduce the problems are to share knowledge with others in communication. This is why it is easiest to communicate with other members of the same group. This is why people so often gather together socially with others who are very much like them. Since intercultural communication is communication with members of different cultual groups, and therefore, because we do not share knowledge, assumptions, values, and forms of discourse with them, we must expect there to be problems of interpretation. We must look for these problems, anticipate where they will arise out of our differences, and then plan our aommunications to be as effective as possible.

However, we have to remember that, most of the time, the different ways that are the customs of dfferent cultures are neither right nor wrong. It is simply that different people do the same tings in different manners, even though we can not understand ,we should show the respect. I believe this is the best way to make our life become more comfortable and make the world more harmonious.
