中国文化与美国文化的不同的英语作文（热门20篇）

中国历史五千年，各种文化交相辉映，但提到国家前途及发展时却异常地统一，这是中国之所以每每处于最黑暗的时刻总能迅速翻身的最重要理由。只要给中国和平的50年时间，必然能创造出另世人瞩目的辉煌。文化是无形的，就像灵魂一样，就像生命一样，就像智慧一样，就像电一样，是我们非常熟悉的一个存在和能量，但是由于它无形，所以只有附着在一个物体上，或者通过直观的现象表现出来，人们才能感知它。

二千多年前，中国第一代的文化大师孔子、老子、孟子、墨子、荀子等先贤百家争鸣，使中国文化达到了一个至今不能超越的度，他们既不把思考局限在文化专业的小圈子里，又不把思考放任到抽象玄虚的领域，而是在社会秩序构建和国家发展上创造了一个百家争鸣的共同的话语平台。这是他们集体地为中华文化选择的精神方向和深层内涵。

八个字概括，中国文化的核心精神1、自由；2、平等；3、关爱；4、创造。

中国文化自古以来就有其独特的传统。

在绘画和雕刻艺术上，中国画是泼墨写意，西方的油画讲究人体比例和光学原理。比如：中国人为了表现神仙可以飞行就在仙女的脚下加上几朵白云，体现飞的意境。西方人就不能理解我们这种抽象的艺术表现手法，在西方的经典的宗教题材画作中，为了说明天使在飞，就得给那些可爱的小精灵们加上一双翅膀。因为他们只有想到翅膀会飞。在雕刻作品中，中国人更注重想象力和意境，比如一个猴子蹲在马背上，它们的比例相差无几，只是表现了一种意境：马上封侯。而西方的雕刻作品讲求写实和细腻，绝不会出项这种比例失调的艺术作品。

不同的颜色在不同的国家和民族所代表的意义完全不同，对不同颜色的喜好从整体上可以反映一个民族或者国家的审美情趣与好恶倾向。在中国的文化背景里，红色代表着幸运、财富和吉祥喜庆，而在西方人的观念里，红色是在购机大舞台上血的颜色，表示冲动、挑衅和动乱，我们看到西班牙斗牛士拿着红布就是向牛挑战，红色可以激怒斗牛，所以，中国人在喜庆的节日里喜欢穿红色在国际上的衣服，而西方人一般选择蓝色，因为他们觉得蓝色代表冷静和沉着。

同时，我们注重教育，因为我们相信科教兴国才会使一个国家强大，在国际大舞台上发挥自身作用，得到尊重。中国的教育总是对孩子期望过高，孩子被支配、被指责得太多，会变得脆弱，他们最怕犯错误，最怕失败，所以为了避免错误，反而放弃了提出问题的机会，放弃了在失败中学习的过程。长大后，孩子不仅失去了创造和想象的能力，而且会变得患得患失。因为被强压后学习到的知识、思维、逻辑和推理，是被动的。在当今竞争如此无情激烈的世界里，唯有强者方能出成就。中国的教育体系不是塑造一个真实的孩子，总要把孩子变成自己所希望的样子。没有给孩子一个想成为自己的空间，而是别人怎么做你也要怎么做的盲从产物。兴趣对于大人和孩子都是非常重要的，让一个人去做不想做的事，只会事倍功半。尊重孩子，把他看作一个平等的人，与你享受平等的说话权利，批评权利，反抗权利。少年智则国智，少年强则国强。每一个人都需要反思。

在现如今繁华的时代，我们物质上富裕了，而精神上颓废了。我们开始撒钱，开始炫富，我们太看重物质。这一切都与中国优良的传统文化相违背，我们需要反思。作为媒体，把健康的呈现给观众，才会使中国文化得到发扬，向世界证明中国。

In recent years, Sinology, the study of Chinese traditional culture, literature, history, society etc, has become increasingly popular  For instance, it is reported that many primary and secondary schools have set up courses of sinology, in which students are taught classical works by Chinese ancient educators and philosophers, like Confucius- Another good illustration is in the program CCTV Lecture Room famous scholars, eg, Yu Dan, give lectures on Chinese ancient philosophies and literatures.

Sinology becomes prevalent due to the fact that it is of vital significance for both the individuals and the society. For one thing, Sinology is the essence of Chinese civilization with more than 5,000 years. Thus, for individuals, they can enlarge their scope of knowledge , enrich their experience and adapt themselves to the complicated society. For another, it is acknowledged that the rehabilitation of Sinology can contribute to the establishment of a harmonious society.

In my opinion, all Chinese people should inherit the merits of Sinology. To do so, we can read books by ourselves or to attend lectures on this issue. Besides, we have the obUgation to popularize introducing it to the world By doing so, we can not only inherit it but also make it glorious and prosperous.

长城是世界上的一个奇迹，它像一条巨龙盘踞在中国北方的辽阔的土地上，长城全长约12600里。它是中国古代劳动人民血汗的结晶，也是中国古代文化的象征和中华民族的骄傲。

游客们，我们已经来到了的八达岭长城上，两旁的山上，是苍松翠柏，云遮雾障，禽鸟齐鸣，溪流淙淙，好像处处充满了诗情画意。您往远处看，可以发现这里的长城分为南、北两峰，蜿蜒于山脊之上，龙腾虎跃、气象万千，景色十分壮观。长城依山而建，高低起伏，曲折绵延。这段长城的墙体是用整齐巨大的条石铺成，有的条石长达2米，重数百斤。内部填满泥土和石块，墙上顶地面的地方铺满方砖，十分平整。墙顶外侧筑有高2米的垛口，上有了望孔，下有射击口，内侧建有宇墙。城墙每隔一段，筑有一个堡垒似的方形城台。城台有高有低，高的叫敌搂，是守望和军士住宿的地方；低的叫墙台，高度与城墙相差不多但突出墙外，四周有垛口，是巡逻放哨的地方。

下面就到了烽火台，又叫烽燧，狼烟台。是不和长城相连的独立建筑。一旦敌人来，就点燃烽火通报军情，白天点燃的烟叫做烽，晚上的叫做燧。

今天的长城，早已失去军事价值，而以其特有的魅力，吸引着广大中外游客，成为举世闻名的旅游胜地！

中国文化博大精深，源远流长，一直是中华民族的代表与骄傲，但近年来面对外国文化的入侵与冲击，中国文化在有些地方确实受到了打击，在青少年身上尤为明显，有人不禁发问“难道外国文化真的比中国文化更有吸引力吗？”

对于我而言，其实不是这样的，外国文化在某些方面固然十分诱人，这是不可否定的，在文学方面如《哈利·波特》、《冒险小虎队》等，这确实是十分好看的图书，对青少年的学习也有一定的帮助和启发，有一定吸引人的地方。但中国古诗的韵味与古文的风韵则是这些图书永远也无法比拟的。李白的《将进酒》是多么有气势、李煜的《虞美人》又是多么的凄楚动人、马致远的《天净沙·秋思》中饱含的思乡之情是多么深切，而这正是中华文学的光荣与骄傲。

再比如《西游记》，虽然这只是一部电视剧，但影响了中国好几代人，至今仍是口口相传，原著则更是妇孺皆知的经典。杨洁导演的1986版《西游记》距今已过去30多年了，可现在每当电视上播出的时候，我们仍不厌其烦，仍然看看津津有味。试问一下，我们能用这样的心态和行动去看外国的电视剧吗，他们又有几个能与《西游记》相媲美的，有几个能让我们津津乐道呢？2017年的主旋律电影《战狼2》创下了60多个亿的票房记录，简直成为了电影界的里程碑，看的我们是热血沸腾，都想把自己置身于故事中，为了理想信念而战，为保家卫国而战，为祖国荣誉而战。这样的文化理念还有很多很多，数不胜数，难道这还不足以说明中国文化比外国文化更有吸引力吗？

2017年，国家印发了《关于实施中华优秀传统文化传承发展工作的意见》指出，实施中国优秀传统文化传承发展工程是建设社会主义文化强国的重大战略任务，在全国范围内推行国学教育。从国家层面也中可以看出，中国文化与优秀传统文化的重要性，我们青少年学生是民族的希望、祖国的未来，更要养成良好的道德行为规范，既要做中华传统美德的传承者，也要做以“富强、民主、文明、和谐；自由、平等、公正、法治；爱国、敬业、诚信、友善”为基本内容的社会主义核心价值观的忠实践行者。中国传统文化魅力无穷，是指导我们青少年学习、做人、做事的标杆与方向。

作为青少年学生，我们要继承优秀的中国文化，并将它发扬光大，要让世界知道中国青少年在中国文化的熏陶下迈着坚定的步伐走在强国的道路上，要让世界知道少年强则国强，少年智则国智，我少年中国，与天不老，我中国少年，与国无疆。

文化自信是一个国家、一个民族发展中更基本、更深沉、更持久的力量。三个“更”突出文化自信的基础性与稳定性，也彰显了文化自信对一个国家与民族的重要性。

文艺是文化的一种展现形式，在现代社会中文艺在传承经典、输出文化、彰显大国自信等方面有着独一无二的价值。文艺工作以人民群众为中心，深入实践，文艺工作者在为人民群众带来喜闻乐见的作品的同时也在潜移默化地影响着人民群众的文化观念与文化行为。

在文化传播中创新文艺工作，打造优秀文艺节目。文艺工作承担着文化传承与输出之大任，在传播文化的内容与形式上要随着社会的进步而进步，要时时创新，跟上时代的步伐。文艺工作者犹如文化自信道路上的引路者，引导大众去传承我们悠久的辉煌历史、去发扬我们优秀的传统文化、去了解我们先进的现代文化。以央视文化类节目为例浅析文艺类节目对传播文化，夯实文化自信的积极影响。作为文化输出类节目《百家讲坛》《中国诗词大会》《经典咏流传》《国家宝藏》等以不同领域的文化知识吸引广泛的观众去了解我们的文化，认识我们的文化从而真正信任我们的文化。《百家讲坛》作为传播知识文化的典型节目，创新科教知识传播形式，让文化传播更有趣、更有意思。《中国诗词大会》《经典咏流传》等以文艺节目的形式传播我们优秀的诗词、诗歌文化。所谓文以载道、歌以咏志，此类节目不断挖掘传统文化的当下价值，进一步落实以人民为中心的创作导向。让经典走向群众，让美育教育滋润成长。同时，此类形式的美育节目在某种程度上使我们于古人实现了古今对话，让我们在古人的诗词言志中潜移默化的接受文化的熏陶。《国家宝藏》则是以各地博物馆为主，展现我国各个时期的历史、人文、风俗等。受《国家宝藏》节目的影响我每到一个城市便先去当地博物馆看看，现如今依旧清晰记得在上海博物馆时保安大哥给我讲述馆藏文物历史时的自豪与自信。

在文化传递中沉淀文艺工作，塑造精良文艺作品。文艺工作承担着文化传承与发扬之重任，任重而道远，在文化自信的道路上有着中流砥柱的作用。一部优秀的文艺作品是能引发共鸣与反思的，是值得反复琢磨与思考的。如电影《无问西东》讲述了四个不同时空中几位年轻人的选择和命运，看完电影不仅感受到老一辈科学工作者在艰苦环境中克服困难、一心为国的爱国精神，而且不由思考我能为社会做点什么?我们这代人能为祖国做出什么贡献?文艺工作者在面对纷繁复杂的欲望需沉淀自身、需静心坚守初心、用心打造作品。现如今流量明星、各路网红等占据各大空间，真正静心打磨作品的却寥寥无几。实际上，流量明星应承担传播文化之责任，多加积累，厚积薄发。各路网红也应承担传播文化之重任，植根文化，用心表达。“大师、大家，不是说有派头，而是说要有大作品。如果不把心思和精力放在创作精品上，只想走捷径、搞速成，是成不了大师、成不了大家的”。因此，文艺工作者要静心、用心，努力去打磨精品、塑造经典。

文艺工作要想推动文化自信，必须走进实践，观照人民生活，表达人民心声，用心用情用功抒写人民、描绘人民、歌唱人民;必须于与文化传播紧密结合，用心用情用功创作深入民心的经典;必须“创新+静心”，用心用情用功发扬优秀文化、增强国民的文化自信。

Old People in America

In the old days，American families were bigger。 People had more children，and grandparents and great-grandparents lived with their families。 But now， families are smaller， and many old people

live alone。 At the same time， Americans are living longer and longer。 The number of old people is always growing。

Some old people like to stay in their old homes。 They do not want to move from their old homes。 They do not want to move from their hometown。 They are near their 。friends and family。 But some do not have a lot of friends。 They want to meet new people。 They want to live in a quiet place with other

people of their age。

A large number of old people are moving to the South。 It is warm there。 You do not have to walk through the snow in winter，or pay a lot of money for heating。

A large number of old people are moving to the South only for old people。 One of these is Sun City， near Phoenix， Arizona。 All the families in Sun City must have one person over the age of 50 ，and children under 18 years old cant live there。

美国的老人

以前美国都是大家庭。人们孩子很多，祖父母和曾祖父母都和家人在一起生活。但现在，家庭越来越小，许多老人独自生活。与此同时，美国人越活越长。老年人的数目总在不断增长。

有些老人喜欢呆在他们原来的房子里。他们不愿意从旧房子里搬出来。他们不想离开家乡。他们想住在朋友和家人附近。但是有些老人朋友不多，他们想结交新人，他们想和其他同龄的老人共同居住在一个僻静的地方。

很多老人正在迁往南部，那里天气暖和。冬天的时候不需要在雪中走路，也不需要交大笔取暖费。

很多老人正在迁往只允许老人居住的南部城市。其中之一就是亚利桑那州菲尼克斯附近的太阳城。太阳城居住的所有家庭都必须有一个成员在50岁以上，18岁以下的孩子能住在那里。

你们可知道我最拿手的是什么吗?让我来告诉你们吧!我最拿手的是剪纸。只是你们不要以为我只会剪什么动物、字、花等图案，我是想要剪什么就能够剪什么的，而且你们还不要说我还剪得有点像模像样的，非常逼真。 怎么样，你想要看看我的手艺吗?好吧，我就剪一个给你看一看。

只是，不巧，你不能够到我这儿来。现在我只能够用文字告诉你，看了以后你一定也会感受到、欣赏到的。 我先找来了一张白纸，裁成一个正方形。然后，我按照自己想剪图形的样子去折纸。我斜着对折，然后再斜着对折一次。好了，现在这一张纸成了一个三角形了，好象一座小山。接着，我就动手剪了起来。我东边一剪，西边一剪，然后弯了下去，再翻过一个身来往中间剪过去。我又弯来弯去地剪了一会儿，很快我就把纸花给剪好了。然后，我把纸翻开。啊，这时你就可以看到一幅漂亮的剪纸呈现在你的面前了。

当然，如果你在现场看到我的剪纸的话，一定会更加兴奋。而且还会立刻动手也想自己亲自剪一剪呢!不过没有关系，你只要自己动手试一试，多试试，就一定会摸索出一套经验来的，而且会越剪越好的。 好了，我不跟你多说了，你赶紧去按照我说的去做，去剪吧!如果有机会，我们还可以走到一起商量探讨，把我们的剪纸技术进一步提高，让我们的中国民间艺术得到进一步发扬光大。

With the coming of National Day, I have a one week holiday. I really expect to it, because I want to have a short trip during these days. I will travel to JiuzhaiValley with my parents for three days. I have heard that the scenery of JiuzhaiValley is very beautiful in autumn and it’s the best time to travel there. Autumn is my most favorite season so I want to enjoy the beauty of such a wonderful place. I do some preparations for this trip. For example, I search the Internet to see the travel raiders and I have known where the most attracting place is and where to live in. I am sure it will be a wonderful journey. There are only several days for the coming trip, but I have been too excited to wait.

随着国庆节的到来，我有一个星期的假期。我真的很期待，因为我想要在这几天有一次短途旅行。我将和我的父母去九寨沟三天。我听说秋天的时候九寨沟的风景最美，秋天是去那旅游最好的季节。秋天是我最喜欢的季节所以我想要去这样美丽的地方去享受美景。我为这次旅行做了一些准备。比如说，我在网上搜索了旅游导航，我知道最有吸引力的地方是哪里以及住在哪里。我确信这将是一次奇妙的旅程。还有几天旅行就要到来了，可是我已经兴奋得等不及了。

中国传统文化历史悠久、渊源流长，有剪纸、刺绣、戏剧、陶瓷、皮影戏、国画等等，其中我最喜欢的就是国画了。

今天我来为大家介绍介绍国画。国画就是用颜料在宣纸或是宣绢上绘画，是东方艺术的主要形式。国画又称为“中国画”，古时称为“丹青”，我国传统绘画主要是指以毛笔、墨、国画颜料等画在绢、宣纸、帛上并加以装裱的卷轴画。题材可分为人物、山水花鸟等，技法可分工笔和写意，它的精神内核是“笔墨”。国画强调“外师造化，中得心源”，要求“意存笔先，画尽意在”。

中国的国画大师的作品中我最欣赏齐白石画的虾、徐悲鸿画的马。我的画画老师张老师在二年级暑期开始教我学国画，张老师说：“国画，是我们中国的国宝，你要努力学习国画，把国画这种传统文化传承下去。”

我暗下决心，一定要把国画练好!

每个国家，每个民族都有属于自己的文化，其中都蕴含着本国本民族的特色、精神。自从人类文明发展以来，就没有谁或者一个标准能来衡量一种文化的优劣。存在于世界上的多元文化根本就无法一决高下，评出个三六九等。它们共同的存在交织成了一张丰富的“文化网”，笼罩了整个地球，让全世界的人们共同沐浴在多姿多彩的文化之中，享受它们给生活带来的无穷乐趣。

然而，作为四大文明古国之一的中国，却正在对自己的文化一点一点地丧失了自信力。中国流传千年的文化，能如此源远流长，历久弥新，一定有它的价值和优越性，可为什么中国人却开始怀疑它的价值了呢？“崇洋媚外”已成了追逐时尚的主流，而中国人所表现出来的对中国文化的“不自信”尤让人为之震撼，为之感叹，为之心痛。

在大多数中国人眼中，好像是外国的，或是受到过外国人褒扬的，就是好的。甚至于国外的中低档东西到了中国，也比本土产的高档货好，说出去脸上有光。前一段时间，新闻中曾曝光过一些“披着洋皮”的国产品牌。经过记者调查发现，这些所谓的“洋品牌”服装，要价很高，只是因为挂了个洋名。而实际上，这些品牌的商标全是在国内注册的，所谓的原产国，意大利、法国等根本就没有这些品牌。以及前不久新闻上曝光的达芬奇家具专卖店出售的所谓“意大利原装进口”的家具，一件要几十万的天价，在顾客购买后出现了质量问题。再经查证，这个品牌确实是意大利的，而它在当地也只不过是一个“无名小卒”。更何况家具店的这些家具，都是该公司委托给中国家具厂生产的，原料也是中国原产，是地地道道的国产货。这些国产货也并非是劣质产品，只是在中国人看来，国产货比不过进口货。而商家们正是抓住了人们的这种心理，从而行骗，从中牟取不正当的暴利。中国人对自身的不自信，也让自己吃尽了苦头。

我们确实应该清醒了。中国文化的优劣性不是靠洋人的简短评价就能确定的。这也许是受了过去一百年中国被帝国主义列强侵略的影响，让中国人认为自己仍然被洋人牵着鼻子走。那么是时候走出这个阴影了。我们要找回我们的文化自信，让中国文化雄立于世界文化之林！

这是一个美好的早晨，我们教室中出现了许多精美的作品，有美丽的中国结，有远近闻名的书法，有细致的刻纸，还有雄伟的东塔的照片。这些作品让我感受到了丰富多彩的中华传统文化。

我最喜欢的是骏马图，那马儿像在草原上飞奔，尾巴一甩一甩的，非常美丽!更有趣的是弥勒佛，他有着元宝一样的肚脐眼，手抱着头大笑。他的肚子大大的，里面可装着一条大袋子。俗话说：“容天下难容之事，笑天下可笑之人。”这可真搞笑。还有年年有余的中国结，鱼的鳞片金灿灿的，尾巴也是一样。还有一个金元宝。

祖国可真好!我爱祖国的灿烂文化!

董仲舒出生于汉时广川,是现在衡水市广川镇人,西汉时期我国著名的哲学家、思想家、教育家。他向汉武帝建议“兴太学”;提出限制土地兼并、解放奴婢等在当时条件下值得肯定的政治主张;大力提倡并身体力行仁、义、礼、智、信等公德;汉武帝采纳他的建议“罢黜百家、独尊儒术”,使儒家思想成为汉武帝之后历代王朝的统治思想,并成为此后中国封建社会意识形态的主导思想,影响中国历史两千多年。他对中国历史作出的四大突出贡献是:德政、尊儒、尚礼、崇文。在中国历史上儒学有三位伟大的思想家,分别是孔子、董仲舒、朱熹。孔子是儒学创始人,董仲舒是经学大师,朱熹是理学大师。这三大思想体系是不同时期的儒学代表,是儒学发展的三个里程碑。董仲舒使儒学由诸子而成独尊,由一家而融汇百家,在承前启后中起了关键作用。著名历史学家张岱年教授指出:“董仲舒的学说对后世影响较大。宋代理学家程颢说:‘董仲舒曰:正其义不谋其利,明其道不计其功。此董子所以度越诸子’。在中国哲学史上,董仲舒的思想是值得研究的”。现在我们研究他,吸收他思想学说的精华,对于我们在改革开放的环境中,在市场经济条件下继承和弘扬优秀传统文化,促进和谐社会建设,推进经济、文化事业发展无疑具有重要的意义。

当今时代,文化越来越成为民族凝聚力和创造力的重要源泉,成为一个国家综合实力的重要组成部分。如何继承和弘扬优秀传统文化,是我们面临的一个重大课题。我们要加强对儒家文化的挖掘、整理和研究,吸收借鉴传统文化的精髓,发现儒家文化对建设和谐社会的积极作用,真正做到古为今用,努力构建符合时代特征的先进文化,这对增强民族团结、维护社会稳定、构建和谐社会、促进世界和平,都具有重要的意义。同时,要积极向世界介绍、推广中国优秀的传统文化,从而更好地让世界了解中国,让中国走向世界。

衡水是一个年轻而充满活力的城市,历史悠久,文化底蕴深厚。在漫长的历史长河中这里曾孕育了众多的历史明贤。近年来,衡水市委、市政府认真落实科学发展观,弘扬优秀传统文化,发挥名人效应,积极打造“大儒之乡”品牌;围绕地域特有的湖河优势,寻求城市发展制高点、切入点、关键点,提出了打造宜居、宜业、宜商、宜学、宜游“水市湖城”的战略构想,初步探索出一条具有衡水特色的城市发展之路。这些高远之举,都已经和正在产生出较好的社会效益和经济效益。

在贯彻落实科学发展观、建设和谐社会的今天,加强对董仲舒思想的研讨,对于汲取先人思想精华,弘扬传统文化,提高全社会道德水准,必将起到积极而深远的影响和推动作用，也必将为衡水经济、文化、社会发展提供更加有力的精神动力和文化支撑。

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.

北京的景物有很多，有雄伟的长城，有美丽的十三陵，还有著名的学府北大和清华……我最喜欢的便是那美丽的颐和园了。

进了颐和园的大门，首先映入眼帘的是那金碧辉煌的大殿，我四处逛了逛，不知不觉便来到了全城最长的长廊。

这条长廊全长七百二十八米，分成了很多间“小口”，所以每走几步都会有一幅画呈现在你的眼前，虽然总体上差不多，但他们姿态不一，没有一幅是相同的。长廊两旁载满了花木，这一朵刚谢，另一朵又开了，以此形成了鲜明的对比，所以让景物显得更加漂亮了。

不一会，我便来到了万寿山的脚下。抬头一看，只见那高高的山上隐隐约约能望见佛香阁和排云殿，那便是主要景点了。由于对山上的风景充满了期待，所以我迫不及待地开始向着顶点出发，待我登上那一百层台阶，感觉浑身软绵绵的，一点力气都没有了。但当我一听说爬上这一百层台阶就能活到一百岁时，仿佛浑身一下子又充满了力气，开心极了。站在山顶上，一切景物尽收眼底，真是别有一番景象啊!我想在生活中我们也需要爬山这种坚持不懈的精神，只有这样才能看到生活中不一样的美。

颐和园真美啊!我想我们一定要保护环境，保护我们美丽的家园，让颐和园变得更美。

一届人大轰动全国，一个“中国梦”振奋人心，而中国的“文化梦”却何处去追寻？

社会中的太多人在做“经济梦”、“财富梦”，其中也不乏一批以纯粹物质追求为乐的人，还滋生出了各式各样的拜金主义，而在做“文化梦”经精神追求为乐的人确实少见，也无法去想象一个纯粹的精神追求的人在这个物质的世界中该如何生存下去。

羡慕唐宋的文人雅士，不拘泥于物质，不局限于财富，为了自己的精神文化，可以放弃高爵显位，毅然辞官退隐，过起山人隐士的生活，没有喧嚣，没有嘈杂，寄情于山水之间，往返于丛林之中，沉浸在自己的一份长歌怀采薇的精神世界。精神文化对于他们是最重要的，甚至超越了生命，所以当他们的生命悄然逝去时，他们的精神文化却能流芳千古。

厌恶当今的物质社会，“实效至上，金钱第一”的观念不知在何时闯入了文化领域，依靠码字吃饭的“作家”们，在金钱的驱使下，创造出一部又一部空洞无物的长篇小说，变成一个又一个“高产作家”。文化的缺失会导致精神的空虚，进而又导致精神追求的低俗化。这样的例子在当下的社会中并不罕见，从青少年沉溺于网络不能自拔，到报端上各种名人丑事，花边新闻，再到电视荧屏恶搞调侃类的节目，其中寻不见文化的影子，却倍受人们的追捧，究其原因，我想是因为在其中时，人们空虚的精神领域能得到一时的放松和享受。可它们终究不会使精神文化得到一丝充实，却会将人们的追求引向低俗化，使人们的精神领域更加的空虚，所以反过来说，如想去杜绝它们，则从根本上去充实精神文化，就好比人听惯了钢琴的典雅便会不屑于流行乐的喧嚣。

在几年前，当我在电视中看到中国的端午节被韩国申请为传统节日时，心中先是一惊，然后又无奈的笑了，料想必定是某个娱乐节目的调侃，到后来才渐渐的明白是确有其事，心中又有一份气愤，自从那次报道后，便没有了中国与韩国的争夺报道，似乎是中国将自己的传统文化拱手相送。相比之下，最近的钓鱼岛之争却闹的沸沸扬扬，一块海中小岛，却使中日展开半年多的拉锯争夺。难道传统文化真的不如一座小岛，这也反映出中国在面对精神与物质时，习惯性的倾向于后者，也许是百年来中国的求富主题留下的后遗症吧。

“中国梦”的呼声已经响起，而“文化梦”还要再过多久才被人们重视？

农历大年初一是春节，俗称“过年”。这是我国最隆重、最热闹的一个传统节日。这一天家家户户都张灯结彩，一片喜气洋洋的景象。我问妈妈：“春节有哪些风俗呢？”妈妈说:“中国有许多风俗，象贴春联、剪窗花、蒸年糕、包饺子、放鞭炮、除夕守岁、拜年等习俗至今仍然盛行。”

春节我到姥姥家去坐客，因为路程遥远，我们乘上了公交车，一上车，我发现人很多，只好紧紧地拉住妈妈，这时，身旁一个叔叔对我说：“小朋友，我就要下车了，你坐吧！”我对叔叔说：“谢谢。”这时，又上来了一个小男孩，我对他说：“我们一起坐吧！”这时，妈妈和那位叔叔都向我笑了。

汽车到站了，姥姥家到了，一进门，舅公在门口剖鱼，我忙说：“舅公新年好！”舅公笑了。咦，姥姥在哪里？我跑到厨房，姥姥和舅婆在忙碌，我连忙有礼貌地向她们问好，她们对我说：“你真是一个好孩子。”吃饭了，我一起帮忙分碗筷，让长辈们先入席，然后我再入座，大家夸我像个小大人。

饭后，表弟们都出去玩了，我看见他们在马路边放鞭炮吓行人，还把点燃的鞭炮扔进水中取乐，我这个大哥哥急忙上前阻止，告诉他们这样放鞭炮危险又污染环境，他们听了我的话就到空旷的地方去玩了。过了一会儿，长辈们还分别送给我一些压岁钱，还有他们的祝福。

我们中国是礼仪之邦，只有每个人的礼仪从我做起，整个社会才会变得和谐文明。

我们的祖国有丰富多彩的传统文化，为我们的生活增添了不少的乐趣。这些传统文化有：除夕守岁、春节舞龙、舞狮、办满月酒等。这些传统文化之所以能一代一代的传承延续下来，根本原因就是因为它适应各个年代人们的生活和思想的要求。接下来，我就给大家说一说过春节吧！

大家一说起过春节都特别的兴奋，能够穿新衣，戴新帽，但是过春节与吃饺子是密不可分的。饺子的起源非常久远。在我们的北方，除夕之夜，屋里热气腾腾，一家人在一起，切菜的切菜，剁馅的剁馅，和面的和面，有说有笑，热热闹闹，大家都在准备初一早上吃饺子。

在古代的习俗中，饺子一般都在除夕晚上包好，到12点下锅。照古代来说，晚上11点到晚上1点为“子时”，半夜12点正交子时，正好是旧的一年离去，新的一年到来的时候，“交子”的交加上食字旁，正好变成了饺字，所以称为饺子。

春节吃饺子，表示辞旧迎新。在山东，在饺子里面包上铜钱之类的东西，谁吃到硬币，就表示在新的一年里不愁花钱。谁吃到蜜糖，就表示在新的一年里甜蜜、美好。

以上就是我给大家带来的传统文化，你们知道吗？相互学习吧！

导语：不论从何种角度，环保都是当代世界发展不可忽视的一环。它也不再仅仅是一种措施和行动，而是一种经济行为，并带动了一系列相关的产业。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的说明中国发展环保经济的状况的英语句子，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

1. While developing its economy， China will handle properly the relationship among the population， natural resources and the environment.

2. The Chinese government pays great attention to environmental problems arising from Chinas population growth and economic development.

3. China relies on improving supervision， management and technological progress to promote environmental protection.

4. Land， arable land in particular， should be used reasonably and economically. Strong measures will be taken to strengthen the building of the urban environmental infrastructure， regulate industrial structure and lay-out， shun the unpromising way of pollution first， treatment afterwards， and strengthen prevention and control of the pollution in major river valleys to ensure the security of the drinking water of the inhabitants.

【参考译文】

1、中国在发展经济的同时，将处理好的人口之间的关系，自然资源和环境。

2、中国政府高度关注中国人口增长和经济发展所带来的环境问题。

3、中国依靠强化监督管理和技术进步，促进环境保护。

4、土地，特别是耕地，应该合理和经济地使用。将采取强有力的措施来加强城市环境基础设施建设，调整产业结构和布局，避免“先污染，后治理的工作方式，加强预防和控制主要河流污染以确保居民饮用水安全。

无论是(水浒传)中的“砍头如西瓜”，或是(西游记)中的“皆尽打杀之”，似乎都给人这么一种印象：中国的生命，无论是人是妖都不那么被看重，至少在一些文学作品里是这样。黄文炳老先生可谓倒霉之极，不过想捞个小官当当，把宋江给告了，就让人绑在柱子上像片北京烤鸭那样给人生剐了下酒。武松杀张监都时也许是想试试刀锋，便把人家大小十多口无论端灰的倒尿的全都砍了，更不必说(三国演义)里“斩首五千”。那是生命么？草芥都不如。

那被称为“中国历史上几大悲剧”之一的关汉卿老先生的作品，我觉得不仅仅是那位小妇人的悲剧。实在太可悲了：关老夫子不知是为了升华戏剧情节还是喝多了酒，竟不顾多可怜的生命，让一个弱女子临刑前立下何其狠毒的誓言。咒几个昏官“头上长疮脚底流脓”也就罢了，非得又是大雪三尺又是伏旱三年。老天，得压垮多少房子饿死多少人哪！而我们却对诸多冻饿而死的生命视而不见，并且在课堂上高谈阔论，分析这上情节是多么巧妙多么的画龙点睛。

于是在国人心中，生命——主要是敌人的，无论仇敌情敌宿敌或阶级敌人——都是一钱不值的。古代、近代甚至当代都渗透着这一种思想，它似乎已深深烙在国人的思想深处，并且大多是通过艺术家的手表现出来的。远的如黄文炳，张都临还有三国里那几千倒霉鬼，近的如(南征北战)里成片被打倒的“国军”士兵，抑或(上甘岭)里像捏死蚂蚁被揍扁的美国大兵。我们在热血沸腾时的同时，很容易忘记一样东西：生命！

结果理所当然地导致了大量的描绘如何戕害生命的文学作品的出现。艺术家们在“史无前例”中极尽疯狂地拿起“刀枪”刺向自己的敌人。造成了多少兄弟阋墙，父子反目，夫妻离心的惨剧，我无法穷举事实。就比如当时吃“牛鬼蛇神”的风潮吧，人既然成了“牛鬼蛇神”也就不成其人了，生命自然无关紧要，架口锅炖了大家分享自然可厚非。至少当时那些抱柴的架锅的是这么想。

记得前几年高考作文题是“战胜脆弱”。为数可观的教师改到这样的内容：临考的前不久我的父母双双过世……但我终于战胜了脆弱走进了考常我们似乎无法苛责考生，前辈们已然为了渲染艺术效果而能让弱女子发下毒誓，现今的考生当然可以在试卷上将自己的父母送入火葬场，从而博得高分了。

传统文化剪纸消失英语作文（一）

Since the big country has been found at October 1st of 1949, the People’s Republic of China has gone through a history of 62 years. Looking back at the 62 years, especially in recent 30 years, we have made many great achievements in different fields. And China has been the second largest economy in the world in 2010. And as a Chinese, I am so proud of our mother country.

However, on the other hand, we also have been losing many other good things such as beautiful environment and traditional culture when the GDP has increased quickly. And we also know that the traditional culture is the soul of an ancient nation. It is the most important thing. But we Chinese seem to ignore this. And that many things happened in this year like to remind us to be awake of this phenomenon. The accident of our high speed trains had taken many people’s lives away in July. And that the 2-years-old girl had been hurt to die while 18 passers should to save her.

And in my opinion, the culture and civilization are so important that we can’t lose them. However the economy and technology have been developed, we will have nothing when we lost the important things. As a student, I have no idea that what should I do. And I just want to say, we must develop our traditional culture but not to abandon them.

Hello, everyone, my topic today is “we are losing our traditional culture”.

After seeing the movie Kung Fu Panda, I was impressed deeply by its advanced cartoon technology and its abundant characters, but what impressed me most was the series of Chinese elements in the film, such as buildings of Chinese style, calligraphy, Tang suits and so on. I had to admit that the film makers, those Americans, seemed to know our Chinese traditional culture even more than most of us Chinese, which should made us ashamed. To be honest, the movie Kung Fu Panda made many contributions to spreading our traditional culture, but we should not be pleased at all, we Chinese should play the most important role in spreading our own traditional culture. Kung Fu is ours, panda is ours, but Kung Fu Panda is not ours, how terrible it is!

That all, thank you for your listening and it’s time for your questions now.

On the Losing of Tyaditional Culture

It is widely noted that lots of traditional culture is dis^ppeBriitg alotig with the development of technology* Many aucient architectures and traditional ways of living have been deserted. It seems that the traditional culture and craftmanship will be replaced in this modem era.

The following reasons can account for the above phenomenon. Firstly, traditional technologies are always considered ineffective while the new sciences are always highly efficient. Secondly, it is costly to protect the traditional culture.

the fund used to protect the ancient culture was instead delivered to the poor, it will be helpful to the improvement of their living standard. Thirdly，modeni science and technology facilitate both our daiJy and academic life a tot. For instance, college students always collect their thesis materials by surfing the Internet instead of borrowing books from the library.

In my opinion, although traditional culture is an ancient heritage, it couldnt keep pace with the development of society. It is the tide of history that the traditional culture and technology will no doubt be eliminated in the end.

中国传统节日有很多;春节.元宵节.中秋节.端午节.重阳节.清明节.七夕节。

我感兴趣的传统节日中最喜欢的是春节，因为它是中国民间最隆重的传统节日。在夏历正月初一，又叫阴历年，又称为“过年”和“新年”。每年过年，街上挂满了红红的灯笼，彩旗飘飘。商场是人山人海，家家户户贴对联，可热闹了。每个小朋友都可以拿利是，小朋友还可以穿上漂亮的新衣服，大人个个喜气洋洋。爸爸给我买了许多礼花和鞭炮，到了晚上，我就拿出礼花下楼和小朋友一起放，我们玩得非常高兴，到了晚会开始，我才恋恋不舍地回家，与家人一起开开心心的吃水果看晚会，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!

我还喜欢过“重阳节”，农历9月9日，有一首重阳节的古诗是李白创作的。独在异乡为异客，每逢佳节倍思亲。遥知兄弟登高处，遍插茱萸少一人。这首诗写得非常好。又是中国的一个古老的传统佳节--重阳节。重阳节，又有称为“老人节”，重阳这一天，人们赏菊花，佩带茱萸，携酒登山，畅游欢愉。这一天，我和爸爸妈妈准备了一份礼物去看望爷爷奶奶，我心中非常开心，因为我明白尊老爱幼是我们中华的传统美德。

“元宵节”也让我难忘。每年农历的正月十五日，春节刚过，迎来的就是中国的传统节日元宵节，这一天我们也放了许多烟花，还吃了汤圆。一家团团圆圆，那时的我心中充满无比的幸福和欢乐。中国的传统节日真是丰富多彩，它是中国的节日。

这些传统节日同样给我们带来了欢乐和幸福，所以我们要记住这些美好的节日，并永远继承下去。
