My dream is to study abroad in the future. I am always that kind of life can come true soon. But, before I realize my dream, I have to do some preparation. I think the most important thing I need to do first is to adapt the life there.

It is said that there is a big difference between the eastern and western culture.

I need to learn as much the cultural conflicts as possible to make my oversea life become easier.

我的梦想是以后可以去留学。我总是希望那样的生活能早日成真。但是，在实现梦想之前，我得做一些准备工作。我想我首先需要做的是适应那里的生活。据说东西方文化是有差异的。如果我什么都不知道，很容易发生文化冲突。这会置我于一个尴尬的地方。例如，龙是在中国是万兽之王，有着无比神圣的意义。但是在西方国家则是暴力的象征。我要尽量了解的文化冲突，这样我的留学生活才会变得更简单。

There was a kindly nobleman whose wife had died of an illness leaving the nobleman and his three daughters in despair. After losing all his money in useless and bad inventions the family had to move into a peasants cottage, where the daughters did their own cooking, sewing and cleaning.When it came time for the daughters to marry, the father became even more depressed as his daughters could not marry without dowries, money and property given to the new husbands family.One night after the daughters had washed out their clothing they hung their stockings over the fireplace to dry. That night Saint Nicholas, knowing the despair of the father, stopped by the noblemans house. Looking in the window Saint Nicholas saw that the family had gone to bed. He also noticed the daughters stockings. Inspiration struck Saint Nicholas and he took three small bags of gold from his pouch and threw them one by one down the chimney and they landed in the stockings.The next morning when the daughters awoke they found their stockings contained enough gold for them to get married. The nobleman was able to see his three daughters marry and he lived a long and happy life.Children all over the world continue the tradition of hanging Christmas stockings. In some countries children have similar customs, in France the children place their shoes by the fireplace, a tradition dating back to when children wore wooden peasant shoes.

关于圣诞节在火炉边悬挂圣诞袜也有一个有趣的传说。很久很久以前有一个心地善良的贵族，他的妻子因病去逝，抛下他和他的三个女儿。这个贵族尝试了不少发明，都失败了，但也因此耗尽了钱财，所以他们不得不搬到一家农舍里生活，他的女儿们也只得亲自烧煮、缝纫和打扫。

一晃几年过去，女儿们陆续到了出嫁的年龄，父亲却变得更加沮丧，因为他没钱给女儿们买嫁妆。

一天晚上，女儿们洗完衣服后将长统袜挂在壁炉前烘干。圣人Nicholas知道了她们父亲的境况后，就在那天晚上，来到她们的家门前。他从窗口看到一家人都已睡着了，同时也注意到了女孩们的长统袜。随即，他从口袋里掏出三小包黄金从烟囱上一个个投下去，刚好掉在女孩们的长统袜里。

第二天早上，女儿们醒来发现她们的长统袜里装满了金子，足够供她们买嫁妆了。这个贵族也因此能亲眼看到他的女儿们结婚，从此便过上了幸福快乐的生活。  后来，世界各地的孩子们都继承了悬挂圣诞袜的传统。有些国家的孩子则有其它类似的风俗，如在法国，孩子们将鞋子放在壁炉旁。

Traditional Chinese culture is beginning to capture the attention of the

world. This is true even as popular culture that has traditionally been

considered Western begins to spread throughout China. Kung Fu, especially, has

had a great impact on the millions of people who first learned about China

through it. From that, they may come to China and learn about other aspects of

this culture, such as traditional operas like the Beijing and Sichuan ones.

Asian nations have long known about the greatness of ancient Chinese culture.

Their own cultures are a mix of native ones and those Chinese characteristics.

Korea and Japan long ago adopted ideas such as Confucianism is something that

continues today even as it is challenged by Pop Culture. This strength comes

from the ideas given in the Four Books of Confucianism (The Great Learning, The

Doctrine of the Mean, The Analects of Confucius, and The Book of Mencius). These

books built upon the ideas of an even more ancient period codified in the Five

Classics. From them, the West learns such things as Fengshui and other concepts

that are uniquely Chinese. China has taken steps to further this spread of its

culture by establishing Chinese Cultural Centers in such places as the United

States and Europe.

Nowadays, if you search the Internet, you may find the weird situation that people say they are rich not because they own a lot of money, but tea eggs. This is the hot topic in the latest days; the topic originated from a Taiwan TV talk show, a scholar said Mainland was so poor that people there couldn’t buy a tea egg to eat. Then people in the Mainland laughed at what the scholar said, they showed off a lot of tea eggs in the Internet, leaving the words that they were lucky to have tea eggs. Though Taiwan is part of China, because of the history issues, people don’t real get to know each other, so culture misunderstanding always happen. Some people in Taiwan think the Mainland is very poor, so they say we couldn’t afford a tea egg. People need to get more communication between Taiwan and Mainland, we are a family, we should know each other, such misunderstand should be eliminated.

现在，如果你上网，你可以发现一个很奇怪的现象，人们讲自己很富裕，并不是因为有很多钱，而是因为他们有茶叶蛋。这是最近很火的一个话题，这个话题是由台湾的一个访谈节目引起的，节目中的一位学者说大陆很贫穷，人们吃不起茶叶蛋。然后大陆的人们取笑这位学者所讲的，纷纷在网上晒茶叶蛋，并留言他们很幸运拥有茶叶蛋。虽然台湾是中国的一部分，但是由于历史问题的原因，人们彼此之间并不了解，所以文化误读经常发生。一些在台湾的民众觉得大陆很贫穷，因此才会将我们买不起茶叶蛋。台湾和大陆之间应该多交流，我们是一家人，我 们应该了解彼此，这样的误会应该要消除。

This Thursday is Thanksgiving Day. The writer O’Henry called it the one day that is purely American. Thanksgiving is not a religious holiday. But it has ritual meaning. Some Americans attend religious services on the day before Thanksgiving or on Thanksgiving morning. Others travel long distances to be with their families. They have a large dinner which is the main part of the celebration. For many Americans, Thanksgiving is the only time when all members of the family gather. The holiday is a time of family reunion. Thanksgiving week is generally one of the busiest travel times of the year. However, experts say this year probably will be different. On September 11th, thousands of people died when terrorists hijacked airplanes that struck buildings in Washington D.C. and New York City. Many people now say they are worried about flying on a plane. Travel experts say almost 6 percent fewer people will make long trips this Thanksgiving compared with last year. Many Americans who usually visit family and friends by plane are driving shorter distances instead this week. Some mental health experts say the attacks have frightened people. They say people feel safer and happier close to home. More than any other holiday, Thanksgiving is a celebration of family and home. Many people say that this year they are especially thankful for their families and friends and the good things in their lives. On Thanksgiving, people enjoy a long day of cooking, eating and talking. The traditional meal almost always includes the turkey with a bread mixture cooked inside. Other traditional Thanksgiving food served with turkey are sweet potatoes, cranberries and pumpkin pie. Stores are said to sell more food at Thanksgiving than at any other time of the year, and many people eat more food at Thanksgiving than at any other time of the year. Over the years, Americans have added new traditions to their Thanksgiving celebration. For example, a number off professional and university football games are played on Thanksgiving Day. Some of the games are broadcast on national television.

花,大家一听到这个词就会想到‘一尘不染’ ‘出水芙蓉’……这几个词.

莲属化石发现于北美北极地区和亚洲阿穆尔河流(即黑龙江)的白垩纪及欧洲和东亚(库页岛)。分布在亚洲、大洋州北部者为中国莲(Nelumbo nucifera)，漂迁至北美洲的为美洲莲(N.lutea)古植物学家还研究指出，在日本北海道、京都发掘的更新世至全新世(200万年前)的莲化石，和现代的中国莲相似;在中国柴达木盆地发掘的1000万年前荷叶化石，和现代中国莲相似。70年代中国石油化学工业部石油勘探开发规划研究院与中国科学院南京地质古生物研究所《渤海沿海地区早第三纪孢粉》一书记载：在辽宁省盘山、天津北大港、山东省垦利、广饶及河北省沧州等地发现有两种莲的孢粉化石。第三纪热带植物地理区内的我国海南岛琼山长昌盆地地层中，也发现有莲属植物的化石。现我国黑龙江省扶远、虎林、同江、尚志等县的湖沼地，仍有原始野生莲分布。莲花的历史跟我们的恐龙差不多!

莲花有很多品种,比如说:

1. 北京传统栽培品种。单瓣花型。花蕾桃形，绿色，上部红色，花白色。花开较早，6月上旬始花，群体花期1个月左右。结藕较早。7月下旬，将新藕二次翻盆，花期可延续到10初左右。有自然变异的红娃莲和粉娃莲。

莲花有很多品种,这只是莲花品种中的一个小小的一部分,更多的品种需要大家去发现!

莲花在很多地方都很出名,观看莲花的季节最好是夏天.观看莲花也有许多胜地. 著名的有杭州西湖、济南大明湖、山东微山湖、湖北洪湖、湖南洞庭湖、扬州瘦西湖、河北白洋淀、承德避暑山庄、广东肇庆七星岩、台湾台南县白河镇等处。在这些地方，你都可以看到荷花的芳容，领略到“红衣翠扇映清波”的美景。

莲花诗佛国的象征和圣花.大家都知道寺庙里通常有佛祖释迦牟尼的坐像，他身穿通肩大衣，手持说法印，结跏趺坐在莲花台上，佛经说，这是释迦佛祖修道成佛后向信徒们讲经说佛的姿态。称为“西方三圣”之首的阿弥陀佛也结跏趺坐在莲台上，双手仰掌足上，掌中托着一个莲台，似乎在指引众生通往西方佛国净土;以大慈大悲闻名的观音，身穿白衣，坐在白莲花上，一手持着一只净瓶，一手执着一朵白莲，仿佛在表露观音怀着的一颗纯洁的菩萨心，全力引导信徒脱离尘世，到达荷花盛开的净土。 在翻读佛经典籍时，人们又常常会见到佛经把佛国称为“莲界”，把寺庙称为“莲舍”，把和尚的袈裟称为“莲服”，把和尚行法手印称为“莲华合掌”，至于和尚手中使用的“念珠”有的也是用莲子串成。佛经说，用莲子做念珠比用槐木珠要好，同样掐念一遍，所得之福，可多千倍。

莲花是多么的伟大!历史悠久,把历史和现代熔为一体.莲花这么宝贵大家一定要保护它!

中国是茶的故乡，茶的历史源远流长，朋友相逢、人来客往，总会沏茶而待之。茶不仅仅只是一种解渴饮料，它也有着深深的文化底蕴，已经形成了一种茶文化。

茶作为一种精神文化，是从品茗斗茶开始的。茶饮具有清新、雅逸的天然特性，能静心、静神，有助于陶冶情操、去除杂念、修炼身心，这与提倡“清静、恬澹”的东方哲学思想很合拍，也符合佛教、道教和儒家的“内省修行”思想。因此我国历代社会名流、文人骚客、商贾官吏、佛道人士都以崇茶为荣，特别喜好在品茗中，吟诗议事、调琴歌唱、弈棋作画，以追求高雅的享受。

早在唐宋时代之前，茶已成为文人学者的描写对象，诸如借茶写人事，抒发胸怀，感悟人生。今天我们不仅可以读到茶圣陆羽的名著《茶经》，而且还可以读到如唐代杜甫、宋代苏东坡、元代耶律楚材、明代徐渭等著名诗词宗师们的咏茶佳句。仔细翻阅古代的文学艺术作品，我们还可以看到，茶还是绘画家、音乐舞蹈家，乃至宗教文化中的永盛不衰的重要题材。

喝茶的雅名叫品茗。文人好茶，以为喝茶是淡雅而幽怨的。品茗斗茶又是文人生活中一大雅事。古代文人多情而善感，喝茶喝到得意处，难免诗兴大发，留下许多佳句。宋代范仲淹《和章珉从事斗茶歌》曰：“溪边奇茗冠天下，武夷仙人自古栽。”诗人对武夷茶推崇备至，把武夷茶比作仙茶，评为天下第一。“斗茶味兮轻醍，斗茶香兮薄兰芷。”他夸赞武夷茶的滋味，胜过甘美无比的醍醐，香气胜过清幽高雅的兰芷。寓意深长，倍增茶韵。

文人学者中多品茗行家。清代著名学者袁枚在《随园食单》中，有一段谈到武夷岩茶的韵味：“余游武夷，……僧道争以茶献，杯小如胡桃，壶小如香橼。每斟无一两，上口不忍遽咽。先嗅其香，再拭其味，徐徐咀嚼而体贴之，果然清芬扑鼻，舌有余甘。一杯之后再拭一二杯，令人释燥平矜，怡情悦性。始觉龙井虽清而味薄矣，阳羡虽佳而韵逊矣;颇有玉与水晶品格不同之故。”袁枚在浅酌慢饮中，把武夷岩茶比作美玉，把龙井和阳羡茶比作水晶，说明它们的韵味各有独到之处。

茶被文人这么一咏一颂一讲究，身价自然就高起来。久而久之，喝茶便成为了一件很高雅的事情，还衍生出了专门的“茶道”，用好多人为的规矩跟普通大众拉开了距离。于是，茶不能“喝”了，得“品”，在烦琐的细节里品茶的人便有了资格自鸣得意地嘲笑起别人来，认为大众皆“牛饮”，不解茶中滋味。杜牧的“今日鬓丝禅榻畔，茶烟轻。

导语：现在，越来越多的人们开始加入了提倡低碳生活的行列，并为营造低碳生活作着贡献。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

Now, the world is in advocate a theme, that is: "low-carbon life".

Why should advocate low carbon life? Thats because in recent years, as people on waste, caused a sharp reduction in the earths energy, is now left, to the development of new energy sources, certainly too late.

Behavior, therefore, we should resist these waste, save energy use as much as possible in the life, and thus reduce carbon dioxide emissions. In this way, can achieve the "low-carbon life".

Now, more and more people begin to join the advocate low carbon life, then make a contribution to build a low carbon life. But there are some people, just enjoy yourself, dont for the sake of the future, the waste of the earth have very little energy at random, this kind of behavior is wrong, if everyone like they, themselves, low energy on the earth before long, will be used up, by this time, no matter how much people have the regret, also of no help.

Low carbon life in this moment now, appears especially important, I hope everyone should consciously create a low carbon life, starts from his side. Create a low carbon life, starts from me!

【参考译文】

现在，全球都在提倡一个主题，那就是：“低碳生活”。

为什么要提倡低碳生活呢?那是因为近几年来，由于人们的大肆浪费，造成了地球上的能源的急剧减少，现在已经所剩无几了，再开发新的能源，肯定来不及。

因此，我们要抵制这些浪费的行为，在生活中尽可能地节约使用能源，并因而减少二氧化碳的排放量。这样，才能够做到“低碳生活”。

现在，越来越多的人们开始加入了提倡低碳生活的行列，并为营造低碳生活作着贡献。但是，还有一些人，只顾着自己享受，根本就不会为将来着想，随意地浪费着地球上已经所剩无几的能源，这种行为是不对的，假如人人都像他们那样，只顾自己的话，地球上微薄的能源用不了多久，就会被消耗殆尽的，到了那个时候，无论人们有多么的后悔，也无济于事了。

低碳生活在现在这种关头，显得尤其重要，希望大家都要自觉地营造低碳生活，从自己的身边做起。营造低碳生活，从我做起!

敬爱老师、亲爱的同学们：

早上好!

今天，我在国旗下讲话的主题是：忆革命先烈过文化清明!

同学们，再过几天就是我国的清明节了!

谈到清明节，总会让人联想到历史人物介子推。据历史记载，在两千多年以前的春秋时代，晋国公子重耳逃亡在外，生活艰苦，跟随他的介子推不惜从自己的腿上割下一块肉让他充饥。后来，重耳回到晋国，做了国君(即晋文公，春秋五霸之一〕，大事封赏所有跟随他流亡在外的随从，惟独介子推拒绝接受封赏，他带了母亲隐居绵山，不肯出来，晋文公无计可施，只好放火烧山，他想，介子推孝顺母亲,一定会带着老母出来。谁知这场大火却把介子推母子烧死了。为了纪念介子推，晋文公下令每年的这一天，禁止生火，家家户户只能吃生冷的食物，这就是寒食节的来源。寒食节是在清明节的前一天(就是今天)，古人常把寒食节的活动延续到清明，久而久之，人们便将寒食与清明合而为一。

“清明时节雨纷纷，路上行人欲断魂”。又是让人难忘的清明时节，不知您此时是否忘记了曾为民族独立抛头颅洒热血的英雄们?是否忘记了为祖国解放事业而献身的英烈们? 我们不能忘记!今天我们要带着40多位优秀的少先队员到少年英雄张高谦的故里——大韩高谦小学，走近张高谦烈士陵园，瞻仰高谦烈士陵园，缅怀英雄，追寻"红色少年"的英雄足迹，学习少年英雄的精神。

清明节是中华民族延续了2500多年的传统节日。我们要在清明节这一天祭祀先祖、学习感恩。不过，每年清明节前后，人们总是扶老携幼集中出行，大量人流、车流致使交通拥堵现象严重。在市区，一些群众在马路边、广场、花园、小区随意烧纸放炮，不仅污染环境卫生，而且给市民的生活带来影响;在农村，田间地头、山冈山坡上烧纸放鞭，烟雾缭绕，引发森林火灾的事件时有发生。

同学们，清明节只有扫墓、祭祀未免太单调了。我们不妨学学古人，过个丰富多彩的清明文化节，放假期间我们可以到郊外踏青赏花与亲近自然保护环境、到空旷场地放风筝，过一个明净清爽的节日。

同学们，我们唯有继承先烈遗志，发愤图强，以优异的成绩告慰青松下长眠的烈士，过个文明安全的清明节，过个祥和快乐的清明节，过个清澈明亮的清明节.

Nowadays,high school students hold different opinions about after-class activities.there are two quite different phenomenonena.

Some students are crazy about sports and some other activities.they spend much time in joining the outdoor activities and varies of groups , and also,making new friends.However,they pay a little attention to their studies.

英国是一个丰富多彩、充满国际和多元文化的国家，欢迎来自世界各地的学生来这里学习和珍惜他们的贡献。

中华民族本来就是礼仪之邦，温文尔雅，谦恭礼让，是华夏儿女世代相传的美德;在现代的社会中，我们更加要讲文明，懂礼貌，提高文明素养。

文明礼仪的内容涵盖着社会生活的各个方面。乘车让座是文明，遵守排队秩序是文明，爱护公共财产是文明。文明礼仪贯穿在我们日常生活的点滴小事之中。所以我们更应该时刻注意自己的言行举止，让文明礼仪贯穿于我们心中。

站在时代的今天，让我们暮然回首：一个民族，要独立、要生存、要发展，不仅需要强大的民族经济、需要坚实的物质基础，还需要强烈的民族自信心与自尊心，更需要一种博大深沉的民族精神。这是支撑一个民族存在与发展的强大精神动力与精神支柱。千百年来，中华民族之所以能够历经磨难而不衰，饱尝艰辛而不屈，千锤百炼而愈加坚强，一个重要原因就是在历史的长河中，形成了以爱国主义为核心的伟大民族精神。

我们是华夏儿女，炎黄子孙，是中华民族的新一代。黄河在我们的血脉中流淌，长城让我们永远刚强，“神舟”载人飞船使我们的天地无限宽广。传承了五千年的民族精神，正等待我们去发扬光大。“团结统一、爱好和平、勤劳勇敢、自强不息”，我们的民族精神蓬勃向上，我们的明天更加辉煌。

“国家荣辱，匹夫有责”，做为二十一世纪的小学生，我们有责任做中华文明的传承者，用“谦谦君子”的标准要求自己，宏扬礼仪之邦的优良传统，从我做起，从小事做起，用我们的行动去感染身边的人，用我们的真诚去打动他人的心。希望大家一路留下的不仅是欢声笑语，更有我们中华学子的文明素养和儒雅风度。未来属于我们，世界属于我们，让我们在中华民族伟大精神的熏陶下，刻苦学习，顽强拼搏，时刻准备着为全面建设小康社会，为中华民族的伟大复兴而努力奋斗!

长城，是中华民族文明的象征，是中华儿女的骄傲。它又称万里长城，是中国古代的军事防御工事，是一道高大、坚固而且连绵不断的长垣。

长城不是一道单纯孤立的城墙，而是以城墙为主体，同大量的城、障、亭、标相结合的防御体系。长城修筑的历史可上溯到西周时期，发生在首都镐京的著名的典故“烽火戏诸侯”就源于此。长城资源主要分布在河北、北京、天津、山西、陕西、甘肃、内蒙古、黑龙江、吉林、辽宁、山东、河南、青海、宁夏、新疆等15个省区市。春秋战国时期列国争霸，互相防守，长城修筑进入第一个高潮，但此时修筑的长度都比较短。

根据文物和测绘部门的全国性长城资源调查结果，明长城总长度为8851.8千米，秦汉及早期长城超过1万千米，总长度超过2.1万千米。城墙的平均高度为7.8米，有些地段高达14米。凡是山岗陡峭的地方构筑比较低，平坦的地方构筑比较高，紧要的地方比较高，一般的地方比较低。

长城与巴比伦空中花园、亚历山大灯塔、奥林匹亚宙斯神像、阿尔忒弥斯神庙、埃及胡夫金字塔以及秦陵兵马俑并称世界八大奇迹。

好了，长城就先介绍到这儿，俗话说的好，不到长城非好汉，没有来过的朋友一定要去看一看哦!

Confucius-commemorating rituals are equally crucial. We should make our utmost

efforts to preserve intangible heritages because, without their physical form of

existence, they are in greater risk of extinction.

performing arts, rituals, oral traditions, festivals, traditional crafts and

various knowledge and practices about nature and universe can be classified as

intangible cultural heritages. As a country consisting of a great diversity of

ethnic groups and with time-honored history and civilization, China abounds in

intangible cultural heritages. Cultural heritages connect modern people with the

historical past, allowing them to acquire a cultural and historical identity.

Without cultural heritages, we would be rendered absolutely rootless and we

would find it hard to cope with challenges at present and in the future.

However, the modernization process poses mounting threats to intangible

heritages. Many people have a blind faith in the latest electronic devices. It

is also pathetic to see elderly people in possession of such legacies pass away

without transmitting them to the younger generation. Faced with those

challenges, we should both preserve and renovate our ancestral heritages so that

we can help contribute to the cultural diversity of the world and return to our

spiritual homeland in this age of impersonal science and technology.

昨天上午，看到了慧心如兰在班级论坛里发的帖子——说下午要举行名为“红色七月，红色记忆“的追忆红色革命历史的暑假实践的活动，可以讲述一些生活中的所见所闻，包括游览过的革命名胜古迹、阅读过的革命故事、英雄故事等，并说出自己的感想。

因为老妈和老师说过，什么活动都要踊跃参加，所以中午，我赶紧上网查查那些英雄的资料，下午好发言。一眨眼的功夫，已经三点半了，我赶紧收拾好东西，和程世龙两人奔赴学校对面的小广场。

简短解说，活动开始!只见慧心如兰和郭紫怡两个主持人，拿着两页“厚厚”的主持稿大声宣布第一项，追忆红色历史或故事的环节开始。可是，也许是同学们有些害羞或者是没准备好。过了好长时间，也没一个人主动发言。本来我想把自己的故事留到最后，来个压轴作用。突然，慧心如兰对我说：“吴泳翔，你不是有稿子么?上去念念呗。”什么!她怎么知道我有稿子的?没办法我只好提前登台了。

在念我的故事之前，我给大家留了个简单小问题——这个故事的主人公是谁。演讲开始!因为我很佩服这位英雄，所以我用了我平生最动情的声音开始念到：“1952年10月，为了打击盘踞在上甘岭的美国和韩国军队，中国人民志愿军第十五军九连的一名战士参加潜伏部队……刚说到这里，就只听台下“观众”异口同声的大声说道“是邱少云!”诶呀我的神呀!看来同学们都对这些英雄人物很熟悉啊!

当我又开始读到“邱少云像千斤巨石一般，咬紧牙关，愣是没发出一点响动，直到光荣牺牲……”时，我的眼睛有些模糊了。当我无意中抬头一看，发现同学们表情也十分严肃，似乎在为英雄的牺牲而悲痛。

接下来，程世龙为我们大家带来了《黄继光堵抢眼》的感人故事。不过前面程世龙读的非常的毅然“黄继光为了是这场战斗胜利，把胸口堵在了敌人的枪口上，光荣牺牲……”

最后，最热闹的抢答问题时间到了，我们大家发挥出自己的革命历史最大才能，把那些问题回答的一干二净。

通过这次活动，我们在一起又重新缅怀了那些为新中国成立而视死如归，抛头颅洒热血的英雄们。为了完成他们的未完成的心愿——让我们伟大的祖国更加繁荣富强，我们从现在开始就该珍惜现在的幸福生活。努力学习本事，将来报效祖国。

中美文化差异

国人见面打招呼时，喜欢问“你吃了吗?”“你去哪呀?”

而西方人对此都感到很怪异。

An American studying in China had an appointment at noon. As he was getting on his bicycle a Chinese friend passed by. "吃了吗?”The young Chinese asked. This, of course, is a common Chinese greeting around meal time and the American merely nodded with a smile, waved goodbye and went off. He realized that his friend’s remark was nothing more than a Chinese way of saying hello or Hi. If the greeting had been put literally into English "Have you eaten yet?" Or “Have you had your lunch? " It would have sounded rather unusual. To Americans, this greeting might mean this: "I havent either. Come on, let’s go together and get something to eat." or "If you haven’t, I was just going to invite you to my place." In other words, it could indicate an invitation to a meal.

Actually , another foreign student who had not been long in China once complained in broken Chinese 你们为什么老问我吃了饭没有?我有钱。To his way of thinking, people were concerned that he was not getting his meals properly because of lack of money. Clearly, he was offended. There is a similar Chinese greeting, such as "上哪儿去啊?""到哪儿去啦?" Which if translated literally, would be "Where are yon going?" Or "Where have you been?" The natural reaction of most English-speaking people to this greeting would most likely be "It’s none of your business!"

Fortunately, not all greetings sound strange or arouse displeasure. Many are similar, some are merely different. While greetings in many languages often indicate the time of day, there may be inconsistencies within a language. English has Good morning, Good afternoon and Good evening but not Good noon. And Good night is not a greeting at all, but an expression of farewell.

greeting 打招呼

一天中午，一个在中国学习的美国留学生有个约会。他刚要骑上自行车，一位中国朋友从旁边走过，问他：“吃了吗?”这是中国人在吃饭前后打招呼的常用语。美国留学生笑着点点头，挥挥手表示告别，就走了。

他知道，中国朋友的话等于英语中的Hello或Hi，但如果照字面译成Have you eaten yet?或Have you had your lunch?外国人听起来就很怪。美国人会以为，这种打招呼似乎是说：“我也没有吃。走吧，我们一起去吃点东西吧。”或者说：“如果没有吃的话，我正要请你到我家去呢。”;总之，这样打招呼有时意味着邀请对方去吃饭 。

发生过这样的事。有一次，一个刚到中国不久的外国留学生结结巴巴地用汉语说：“你们为什么老问我吃了饭没有?我有钱。”他以为人们总问他“吃饭了吗”是因为怕他没钱吃饭。他显然对这种问法感到生气。

再如，汉语中的“上哪儿去啊?”和“到哪儿去啦?”这样打招呼的话直译成英语就是Where are you going?和Where have you been?用这两句英语来打招呼，大部分讲英语的人听了会不高兴，他们的反应很可能是：It s none of your business! 你管得着吗!

幸而，打招呼的话并不都令人感到奇怪或者引起对方反感。有许多打招呼的话是相似的，有些只是说法不同。在许多语言里，打招呼的话往往是相似的，有些只是说法不同。

在许多语言里，打招呼的话往往与时间有关，但即使在一种语言中也有不一致的地方。英语中有Good morning, Good afternoon, Good evening 都相当于汉语中的“您好”，只是说的时间不同而已，但不说Good noon。而 Good night (晚安;明天见;再会)根本不是打招呼的话，这只是告别时说的话。

Protect Traditional Chinese Culture

The passage mainly tells us the importance of protecting traditional Chinese culture, which is challenged or facing extinction because of the developing society and changing lifestyle. Besides, China is nationwide sparing no efforts to do it.

The protection of national and folk culture is of great significance to Chinese cultural diversity and also to the harmonious development between local economic and social development. It is reported that the Guangdong government pays special attention to protecting Chaoju(潮剧)， a local drama born in Chaozhou in the eastern Guangdong province.

In my opinion, some measures should be taken to protect traditional culture effectively. To start with, we should make a law to regulate the society’s performance. Besides, we should draw more people’s attention to it, for the more they know about the importance of culture protection, the stronger the support we can get from the public.

In a word, it is high time for us to treasure and develop our own valuable culture.
