中国的传统文化应该是得到重视的,但在愈来愈近的现代生活中去越多的缺乏了这种对于传统文化的一种重视,生活中点点滴滴也没了最初的传统。

传统文化最突出的一点是节日。我们都知道春节,元旦,端午节等等都是我们国家从以前一直传承至今的节日,并且也一直都是每年按照节日过这个传统节日。但在人们过节日的同时却忘记了自己过这个节日的原来的目的,意义何在。

春节,本应是每年的大年初一来过。更注重的是过年的那一份亲近那一份真挚的感情,但人们现在处于这么一个科技发达的时代反而忘记了这份注重的东西,人们只是更加的注重一种形式。买春联贴上吃了饺子看了春晚也就是过完了年过完了春节,但最初的那份感情却丢失了。我们现在要的到底是什么?

还有现在的文字,现在的简体字都是从以前的甲骨文源源流传到现在,转变到现在的让人不必在费力辨认的字体。但以前的传统的字体也是没有一处不散发着中国传统文化的魅力。

以前的文字有着形体美,韵美。我们可以从字体的形状来知道这个字的意思,它的本意。也是更加的直观,也更是让当今的人们更加的震惊以前的人们是多么的拥有这样的智慧来创造了这些文字,适当今的人们如此收益。也是使当今的交流更加的方便便捷,让大家可以在纸上,用文字来表达自己的心情,提供了很多意想不到的便利。

但人们现在的字体虽然都已经变的简单不再像以前那样的复杂,但却一点点的发现,人们在用现在的文字时没有记得最初这个文字的意思,他的本意。

没有一处在控诉着我们现在的人们在一点一点的忘记自己的“本”忘记了最初的意义。使整个人们的现代文明出现了一个裂缝并且不断的加大,这应该是我们重视我们对待传统文化的教育。

我们在掌握现在的“新”知识的同时不能够忘掉我们的本质,这将会影响自己对于传统文化的重视。

大家都知道,厦门是一座美丽的海滨城市,她的美在于环保,在于……更在于这里的夜景。

这天晚上,一轮明月悬挂在空中,我们乘船来到一个古老、热闹的岛屿,它就是艺术的摇篮——鼓浪屿。

我坐在船上欣赏着美丽的风景,这些风景使我陶醉,我觉得这个世界里似乎只有我的美景。大海时而汹涌澎湃,时而风平浪静,微微抬起头,海对面的风景立即映入我眼帘——川流不息的汽车穿梭在大桥上,那座桥犹如一条蜿蜒盘旋的长龙,璀璨无比。

来到鼓浪屿,第一眼看到的就是那绿油油的草,争奇斗艳的鲜花,茂盛的参天大树,我一脸天真地问爸爸:“这里的树怎么这么高大?”爸爸嘿嘿一笑,说:“这里环境好呀。”我又望到了不远处的霓虹灯和还未摘下的似西红柿的灯笼。

走了一段路,我见到了屹立在海边向远处眺望的郑成功,虽然那只是一个雕像,但我从他的眼神里看到了他的思念、忧郁与淡淡的忧伤……

鼓浪屿,这个处处可以听到悠扬的琴声的岛屿,这个植物之岛,这个……真让我流连忘返!

Traditional Culture Wont Be Lost

It seems we are living in the conflict between modern and traditional cultures every day. Hearing the blaring of horns the moment you step out of your house, seeing the so called "pop" the moment you open your eyes, you cant help thinking, "Will the traditional culture be gradually lost?"

Many people believe so. They may put right in front of you all the evidences they can dig out. They may argue that people are rushing to restaurants instead of cooking at home, listening to pop music but not traditional, wearing in a way people couldnt imagine ten years ago. Modern people like the air of freedom, not to be restrained by traditions. They offer this long list, only trying to confirm that this world is full of fashion,competition and temptation and the traditional culture is fading

and will be lost at last.

Though we are now living in a world in which undeclared aggression, war, hypocrisy, chicanery, anarchy are part of our daily life. Though this is a skeptical age, and our faith has weakened, our confidence in some aspects of the traditional culture should and would never be lost.

Wouldnt you agree that our traditional culture is always credited with modesty, politeness and respectfulness, which have always been treasured for more than five thousand years?Even in this modern world, people still admire those with good manners, those who are polite to others or respectful to old people.

Wouldnt you agree that our Chinese traditional music is beautiful and artistic and our Chinese tea culture is always an appealing treasure to people around the world?

So there may just be some changes in our lifestyle or our attitudes towards life, but little change occurs to some fundamental aspects of our traditional culture that people still treasure in heart.

The traditional culture will never be lost, I believe.

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.

传统文化剪纸消失英语作文(二)

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.

篇9:中国传统文化——风筝作文

全文共 984 字

中国风筝有悠久的历史,据说汉朝大将韩信曾利用风筝进行测量。梁武帝时曾利用风筝传信,但未成功。南北朝有人背着风筝从高处跳下而没有跌死。唐朝的张丕被围困时曾利用风筝传信求救兵,取得了成功。这些说明,中国风筝的历史至少有2000多年了。

从唐朝开始,风筝逐渐变成玩具。到了晚唐,风筝上已有用丝条或竹笛作成的响器,风吹声鸣,因而有了“风筝”的名字。也有人说“风筝”这名字起源于五代,从李邺用纸糊风筝,并在它上面装竹笛开始。

到了宋朝,风筝已有很大发展,品种增加,性能提高与人民生活发生了密切的联系。如“武林;日事”中记有/少年郎竞放纸鸯,以相勾引,相牵剪截,以线绝者为负/北宋张择端的“清明上河图”和苏汉臣的“百子图”中也都有放风筝的场面。明朝画家徐渭写过很多与风筝有关的诗,如“柳条搓线絮搓棉,搓够千寻放纸鸯。消得春风多少力,带将儿辈上春天。”又如:“我亦曾经放鹞喜,今年不道老如斯,那能更驻游春马,闲看儿童断线时。”到了清朝,玩风筝之风更盛。传说慈禧叫大监跑到天津找“风筝魏”给他扎过一个“寿星老骑仙鹤”风筝玩。现在故宫里还藏着三只傅仪玩过的大风筝。

曹雪芹在“红楼梦”70回中生动地描写了大观园中姐妹们放螃蟹、美人、大鱼、编蝠、凤凰、沙燕等各种风筝的情景。可以说,中国的玩具风筝在这时发展到了相当高的水平。

从唐宋开始,中国风筝向世界流传,先是朝鲜、日本、马来亚等东南亚国家,然后传到欧洲和美洲等地。在欧洲产业革命形势的影响下,中国的玩具风筝在那里向着飞行器发展,经过英国的凯利,澳大利亚的哈格瑞夫和德国的李林达尔等人,最后在美国由莱特兄弟造成了最早的能载人成功飞行的飞机。

因此,在美国华盛顿宇航博物馆的大厅里挂着一只中国风筝,在它边上写着:“人类最早的飞行器是中国的风筝和火箭。”

风筝起源于战国时期。据>篇记载,“公输般竹木为鹊,成而飞之,三日不下”;又说“公输般作木鸢,以窥宋城”。公输般就是后人所说的七巧匠鲁班或“鲁班爷”。他制作的“鹊”或“鸢”,其原材料是极薄的木片或竹片。汉朝以后,由于纸的发明和应用,在制作风筝时,逐渐以纸代木。称为“纸鸢”。五代时,又在纸鸢上系竹哨,风吹竹哨,声如筝鸣 故以后称“风筝。

据说汉朝大将韩信曾利用风筝进行测量。梁武帝时曾利用风筝传信,但未成功。南北朝有人背着风筝从高处跳下而没有跌死。唐朝的张丕被围困时曾利用风筝传信求救兵,取得了成功。

Santa Claus was born in US in the 1860s he was named this as he had a white beard and a belly,so he was named Santa Claus as this was the Dutch word for St Nicholas,Sintaklaas.Although the Dutch had bought him with them in the 17th century,he did not become an important person at Christmas until the Novelist Washington Irving put him in a novel that he wrote in 1809.This first Santa Claus was still known as St.Nicholas,he did smoke a pipe,and fly around in a wagon without any reindeer,but he did not have his red suit or live at the North Pole,he did however bring presents to children every year.

In 1863 He was given the name Santa Claus and bore the red suit,pipe,and his reindeer and sleigh.

Now Christmas celebrations vary greatly between regions of the United States,because of the variety of nationalities which have settled in it.

In Pennsylvania,the Moravians build a landscape,called a putz - under the Christmas tree,while in the same state the Germans are given gifts by Belsnickle,who taps them with his switch if they have misbehaved.

Early European settlers brought many traditions to the United States.Many settled in the early days in the South,these settlers would send Christmas greetings to their distant neighbors by shooting firearms and letting off fireworks.In Hawaii this practice is still in use as under the sunny skies,Santa Claus arrives by boat and Christmas dinner is eaten outdoors.

In Alaska,a star on a pole is taken from door to door,followed by Herods Men,who try to capture the star.Colonial doorways are often decorated with pineapple,a symbol of hospitality.

In Alaska,boys and girls with lanterns on poles carry a large figure of a star from door to door.They sing carols and are invited in for supper.

静悄悄的新年像极了一个普通的周末。 The quiet New Year looks like an ordinary weekend.

昔日的年画、鞭炮和祭祖活动了无影踪,中国人最传统的新年文化似乎已逐渐被一次年夜饭、一台春晚和几条拜年的短信所取代。然而,安静的新年只是中国传统文化流失的一个表现。当韩国的端午祭申遗成功,当我们内蒙古族的马头琴成为蒙古国的非物质文化遗产,当成影戏成了印度尼西亚的传统,当埃及和韩国在争夺中国造纸术的发明权时,每一个中国人都应当在情人节的玫瑰和圣诞节的铃声中觉醒。我们应当重新回顾中国博大精深的传统文化。那昔日的辉煌为什么如此轻易的被我们遗忘?那些正在一日日流失的中国传统文化的出路究竟在何方?

中华的文化有深厚的历史背景,那是几千年来的沉淀和积聚,每一次的民俗民风都有着其最独特的传说和文化背景,每一个节目都有上古的史载和存在流传的价值。西方简明快捷的文化似乎更易被接受,但中国文化的横深和纵深是不容许被遗忘和取代的。在经济平稳快速增长的时代背景之下,每一个中国人,每一个华夏儿女都有责任深思中国传统文化得以保存并流传的方法。在某种意义上,那是中华民族得以稳站世界民族之林的出路,那是一个以礼治国的民族得以丰富和充实的出路。

虽然那瑰宝仍以痛心的速度流失着,但我们还是看到关注的目光正移向它们。

举世瞩目的奥运会开幕式便是的例证,在那次盛会上,我们看到了千人击缶的恢宏场面,我们听到了有朋自远方来,不亦乐乎的古诵,我们被昆曲的悠扬感动,我们被活字印刷术的精妙而慑服。张艺谋倾尽心血向世界展示了一个文化悠远的东方古国,也向每一个中华儿女诉说了传统文化的价值和珍贵。

当越来越多的省份开始把民俗民风申入国家非物质文化遗产,当新年的钟声敲响时我们又可以听到喜庆的鞭炮声和飞舞的秧歌彩带时,当在传统节日里我们都有机会去重温过去的习俗时,我们有理由相信,中国传统文化的出路不再是个让人永远担忧的问题,中华儿女终会将每一个传说每一处风俗留给后人,手手相承。

我们看到中国传统文化的出路通向光明。

那静悄悄的新年,有了鞭炮的祝福,有了庙会的欢庆,有了昔日的味道。

我国历史悠久,有丰富的传统文化。其中,我最喜欢的是武术。武术是我国独有的,外国人称为“中国功夫”。

中国武术起源于古代战争。传说炎黄时代,东方有个以野牛为族徽的蚩尤部落,崇尚武技,勇猛善斗,特别善于摔跌。他们头戴牛角或剑戟样的装束,与人交斗时,除了拳打脚踢之外,他们善于抓扭、用头顶触对方,使对方不敢靠近,这就叫“蚩尤戏”。蚩尤的角抵是一种徒手搏斗,既可以用于战场,又可以用于平时演练。随着生产力的发展,武术也进入新的阶段。战国时期,诸侯纷争,战争频繁,士兵们在战争中掌握的一些搏击竞技技巧经过慢慢的发展与演化,就形成了后来的中国武术。

武术分为两种,分别器械武术和拳术。器械武术:按照一定程式舞弄刀、枪、棍、棒等器械,形成固定的武术套路,就叫做器械武术。拳术:赤手空拳操练的武术套路、技法都称拳术。拳术也有拳种、流派,如太极拳、长拳、形意拳、八卦掌、南拳、醉拳。

我喜欢武术是因为它可以用于进攻、自卫、锻炼身体。

The understanding of American culture must not end with what we know on TV, because she has the most distinctive features of her own, which is diversity. As a country with a large immigrant population, the United States does not have a unique way of life, there is no only standard of conduct, and there is no unique culture. The diversity of the United States penetration in all aspects of the country, the following guidelines may not be able to help you overcome all from the cultural differences, but hope to everyone to prepare for the basic study in the United States and general plan to help.

Americans have a very different lifestyle than Chinese people. American food is light and easy to make, and the main course is meat, fish and chicken. A meal usually consists of only one main course, and salads and coffee are by no means less. Hot dogs and hamburgers are two of the most popular fast foods.

Americans are so active that more than a fifth of them move every year. The most detailed list of houses and apartments available on Sunday in newspapers across the country can be used to find homes or to find local estate agents. In addition to paying for rent, the rent house generally pays for utilities, namely gas, electricity, heating, hot water and simple electrical repairs and other repairs. The rent is usually a month, usually on the first day of the month. Electricity in most parts of the United States is 110-120 volts, 60Hz.

Almost every home in the United States has a car, and the American highway is very developed and accessible, so many americans work very far from where they live. They often go on a family trip during the holidays. The most popular means of transportation in the city are buses and subways. The subway is usually run day and night. Taxis are usually paid by distance or by distance. The whole country executes the right driving, the big city executes traffic regulation especially strict.

The American concept of time

Because of the fierce competition, the American society is full of movement and change, people are always in a hurry, and the result also has formed the americans time view of tension. "Time is money" is the most accurate expression of the American attitude to time. Americans value time more than just because they think time is a tangible thing, but more importantly they recognize the urgency and lack of time. Americans believe that the question of time can fully reflect a persons self-cultivation, and his respect for others. Therefore, it is necessary to have a detailed schedule and strict adherence to it.

So we stress that being on time is not just about the individuals schedule, but if youre not on time, it reflects your lack of respect for others time. In the study of life, apart from being on time, it is necessary to observe the deadline of various learning tasks. American schools generally teach students a subject, and then a group of students form a study group. Everyone is responsible for different aspects of learning team, if you dont have the prescribed deadline to complete you responsible for that part, influence is the whole teams performance, it is also a lot of American students constantly complaining about a problem. So being on time is a basic requirement for studying and living in the United States.

The way americans communicate

Talking to people is the most basic form of interpersonal communication. When youre talking to friends from all over the world, youre not just talking to each other, youre communicating with each other. The way language is expressed can often reflect the characteristics of a particular region or country.

Direct refreshing

Most of the time, conversations in the United States belong to a tendency to get information. They like to ask a lot of questions, and in a very direct way. They will use the most simple and direct language to get the information they want, the process, if they do not pay too much attention to wording beautiful, whether express tactfully, it sometimes inevitably conceded the interlocutors have a feeling not too polite. Answer this question, too, when the answer is no, americans will tell you "no" directly, also wont go to touch up for his answer, and if you dont have to know in advance to their speech habits, it felt embarrassed is inevitable.

Positive questions

Another obvious feature of the American way of communication is that there is no hesitation in asking questions. In the course of conversation, if americans dont understand what they dont understand, they often ask each other questions in a timely manner until they understand it. This feature is encouraged in class. In American classrooms, students can present any questions to the classroom at any time, and the lecturers will be more than happy to answer questions for students. Therefore, American classroom will always make students absorb knowledge in a relaxed, interactive and positive atmosphere.

body language

The tools of human communication are not just words, but body language. Spoke of the gestures, body posture, and facial expressions are the key to proper use of body language, we will divide the occasion, object, subject of flexible adjustment and use body language. Eye contact is the key of the above elements. Keep your eyes on the other side of the conversation while youre talking. This is something americans value too much.

Here are a few topics that can be used to talk to almost all americans:

Weather and mood

Some of my past experiences

My own campus life, or work content

Car, fashion, shopping, TV, music, clothing and other casual topics

At the same time, we should avoid the following topics:

Savings, income and other topics related to the personal economic situation

Family situation

Religious beliefs and so on

The last thing to note is that when you dont have a good grasp of your sense of humor, its best not to play it at will. You know, different countries, different culture, have different understanding of humor, and the appropriate humor can active conversation atmosphere, it is easy to cause unnecessary misunderstanding, or conversely.

Were divided into 50 states, each state has different administrative rules and regulations, combined with geographical location, climate condition difference, leads to the residents of the states have different living habits. The same is true of Americas diversity.

Climate change is a top priority. On the other hand is psychological preparation. Residents in different regions have different characteristics, such as: the east people look is always in a hurry, rush about for work, but with their southern leisurely, quiet and warm hospitality is famous for its character, the residents of the Midwests character can be described as practical, stubborn, and tradition, the western residents seem to be more independent, attach importance to individualism, live along the west coast of the United States people impressed us is recreational, relaxed and optional. Youre going to be on a trip to the United States, and youre going to have to look at the cities where youre going to school, and youre going to have a general idea of what youre going to do in these areas.

对于美国文化的认识决不能止于从电视上了解到的内容,因为,她有着自己最鲜明的特点,那就是多样性。作为一个拥有庞大移民人口的国家而言,美国不存在唯一的生活方式,不存在唯一的行为标准,更不存在唯一的文化。美国的多样性渗透在国家的各个方面,以下的指南也许不能帮你克服所有因文化差异而带来的困扰,但希望能对大家为留学美国而做的基本准备和大致计划有所帮助。

美国人的生活习惯与中国人有很大不同,美国食物味道清淡,制作简单迅速,主菜为肉、鱼、鸡类。一餐中一般仅一道主菜,而沙拉和咖啡是绝不能少的。热狗和汉堡包是最流行的两种快速食品。

美国人生性好动,每年都有超过1/5的人搬家。各地星期日的报纸登载周内租售房屋与寓所的最详尽名单,可以通过这些资料找房子,也可以找当地的地产经纪人。租房子除要付租外,一般还要付公用事业费,即煤气、电、暖气、热水和简单的电器修理及其他修理费。租金通常一个月,一般每月的第一天付。美国大部分地区的电力为110-120伏,60Hz。

美国几乎每家都有小汽车,美国的高速路十分发达,四通八达,因此很多美国人工作地点与居住地很远。在假日里,他们经常全家驾车出游。市内最常用的交通工具是公共汽车和地铁。地铁一般都是日夜开行。出租汽车一般按路程(短程)或时间(远程)计费。全国实行靠右行车,大城市执行交通法规尤为严格。

美国人的时间观念

美国社会由于竞争激烈,充满了运动和变化,人们始终处于奔忙之中,结果也就养成了美国人的紧张时间观。“时间就是金钱”这句话是美国人对于时间的态度的最准确表达。美国人对于时间的珍视不仅仅因为他们认为时间是一种切实的事物,更重要的是他们认识到了时间的紧迫和缺乏。美国人相信,在时间的问题上可以充分反应出一个人的自身素质修养,以及他对于他人的尊重。所以,有一份详细的作息时间表,并严格的遵守它,是相当必要的。

所以我们强调做到准时,不仅仅是关乎到个人的日程安排,若你没有做到准时,反应出的是你对他人时间的不尊重。在学习生活中,除了准时上课外,更需要遵守的是各种学习任务的截止时间安排。美国学校的教学方式一般是老师安排给学生一项课题,然后会由学生几个人之间结成学习小组共同来进行。学习小组中的每个人都会负责不同的方面,如果你没有在规定的截止日期内完成你负责的那一部分,影响的就是整个小组的成绩,这也是很多美国学生不断在抱怨的一个问题。所以,做到准时是在美国学习和生活的一个最基本的要求。

美国人的交流方式

与人交谈是人际交往中最基础的形式。当你与来自世界各地的朋友们交谈时,你们之间交流的不仅仅是彼此的观点和话题,更深层次的是在进行着文化的交流。语言表达的方式往往可以反应出某个地区或是某个国家的特色。

◎直接爽快

大多时候,美国人的谈话属于有一种想要获取信息的趋势。他们喜欢提出很多问题,并且是用很直接的方式。他们会用最简单直接的语言表达来获取自己想要的信息,这过程中,他们并不太在意措辞是否优美,意思表达是否婉转等问题,这有时不免会让与之对话者有一种不太礼貌的感觉。回答问题也是一样,当答案是否定的时候,美国人会直接告诉你“不“,同样不会去为他的答案进行润色,若是你没有提前了解到他们这种说话习惯,那感觉尴尬就是在所难免的了。

◎积极提问

美国人的交流方式中还有一个明显的特点就是毫不犹豫的提问。在交谈过程中,如果美国人有不明白,没听清的地方时,他们通常会及时的向对方把问题提出,直到弄懂为止。这一特点在课堂上成为被鼓励的做法。在美国的课堂上,学生可以随时向授课教室提出任何相关问题,而授课者都会极为乐意的为学生解答问题。所以,美国的课堂总是会让学生在轻松,互动,积极的氛围里吸收知识。

◎肢体语言

人类交流的工具不仅仅是语言,还有肢体语言。说话时的手势,身体的姿势,以及脸部的表情都是恰当运用肢体语言的关键,我们要分场合,分对象,分话题的灵活调整和运用肢体语言。其中目光接触则是上述要素中的关键。交谈时要时刻保持自己的目光是与对方相接触的,目光自然和善即可。这一点也是美国人相当看重的。

这里我们给大家提供几个很适合与几乎所有美国人交谈的话题:

天气情况和心情

自己以往的某些经历

自己的校园生活,或是工作内容

汽车,时尚,购物,影视,音乐,服装等休闲话题

同时我们应该避免以下话题:

存款,收入等与个人经济情况有关的话题

家庭情况

宗教信仰等等

最后需要提醒大家的一点是,当你对自己的幽默感并没有十足的把握时,最好不要随意发挥它。要知道,不同国家,不同文化,对幽默的认识是有所不同的,恰当的幽默可以活跃谈话气氛,反之则很容易引起不必要的误解或是不愉快。

美国一共划分为50个州,每个州都有不同的行政法规,再加上地理位置,气候条件的差异,就导致了各州的居民都有着不同的生活习惯。这里同样体现的是美国的多样性。

气候不同是首要考虑的问题。另外一方面就是心理上的准备。不同地区的居民有着不同的性格特征,比如:东部的人看起来总是匆匆忙忙的,为工作而奔波着,南部的人却是以他们悠闲,平静并且热情好客的性格特点而闻名,中西部的居民的性格可以被形容成实际的,固执的,还有一点传统,西部居民显得比较独立,重视个人主义,沿西海岸居住的美国人给我们的印象就是休闲,放松,随意。将要踏上美国之旅的你,需要针对就读学校所处城市,在这些方面搜集资料,提前有个大体的概念。

篇16:介绍美国文化英语

全文共 1589 字

+ 加入清单

American eating is funny. They eat almost everything with a fork, and it appears that holding a knife in ones right hand longer than a few seconds is considered to be against good table manners.

The system is that if it is absolutely necessary to use a knife, people take the fork in their left hand, and cut off a piece of meat or whatever it is in the normal manner. Then they put the knife down, transfer the fork to their right hand, and only then do they transport the food to their mouth. This is clearly ludicrous(滑稽可笑), but it is considered good manners.

There are several results of this system. First, if it is not absolutely necessary to use a knife, Americans dont use one, because obviously this greatly complicates(使复杂化) things, and you will therefore see them trying to cut things like potatoes, fish and even bacon(熏猪肉) with a fork. Second, towards the end of a course, since only one implement(器具) is being used, food has to bo chased around the plate with the fork - and for the last mouthful the thumb has to be used to keep the food in place, although one is not supposed to do this.

Third, tables are generally laid with one knife and two forks, the outside fork being for the salad. There is no need for foreign visitors to follow the American system and try to eat the salad with only a fork, but if you do use your knife, remerber to save it for the meat course. Even desserts(甜食) (except ice cream) are eaten with a fork if at all possible, and the spoon you see by your dessert is meant to be for coffee (but if you use it for your dessert no one will say anything).

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。

中国民族传统文化有许多种,比如元宵节吃汤圆,闹花灯、端午节吃粽子等很多很多种。今天,我要讲的是我姥姥家的一种传统文化,过年吃饺子。

过年的时候,全家围在一起包饺子,馅有很多种,有肉馅的、芹菜馅的、韭菜馅的等等,最后大人们会把一两个硬币放到馅里包进饺子里面,所以吃的时候要小心奥,但是谁吃到就会很高兴,因为代表着这个人今年都会好运或着发财呢。我很喜欢这个传统文化,因为我时常就有这个运气啦!

当然,还有好多种,我还要说说端午节吃粽子呢!每年的农历五月五就是端午节了,每家都会采来粽叶,包上糯米,里面再放点你喜欢吃的东西,煮熟了就很美味了,当然不光是为了吃了,是用来纪念屈原这位伟大的爱国诗人的。我最喜欢吃的是嘉兴大肉粽了,一口咬下去,油而不腻,好吃极了。

1949年10月1日,一个古老而又伟大的民族在这一天重获新生。

70年披荆斩棘,70年大步向前,中国日新月异,核弹的成功爆炸,火箭卫星的顺利发射,神州飞船的飞天梦……从一无所有到万众瞩目,我成长在这崭新的中国,享受着全新的生活,备感荣耀与自豪。

今天,一座座高耸入云的大厦拔地而起,雄伟壮观。公路纵横交错,车辆川流不息,地下也有地铁来来往往;桥梁犹如彩虹,让天堑成为了通途;四通八达的高铁,拉近了每一座城市的距离;如果想出国来个闪游,全天候的国际航班让原本奢侈的想法也成为了可能。

如今的我们,不但能在商场超市买到来自世界各地的商品,还能看IMAX电影、玩AR游戏……如果想偷懒,用电脑或手机打开购物或者外卖APP,动动手指,想要的商品,心仪的美食,甚至新鲜的蔬果,快递叔叔都会快速送到家门口。不止这些,网络课堂、网络医疗、共享单车,共享充电宝……人工智能让衣食住行更加便利,创新驱动中国蓬勃发展。

“继往开来的领路人,带领我们走向新时代,高举旗帜开创未来”每当这首歌在耳边响起时,我都心潮澎拜。作为新时代小学生,我是幸福的也是幸运的。在新的征程,我一定会拼搏奋斗,努力奔跑,做一个不负时代的追梦人!

篇20:四年级中国文化议论文

全文共 774 字

+ 加入清单

罩上薄纱的文化神秘而富有魅力。匡衡爱慕文化,他凿壁偷光;孙敬热爱文化,他悬梁刺股;孔子挚爱文化,他废寝忘食。中华文化历史悠久,博大精深,作为华夏子女,怎能不热爱它,迷恋它?

秋风瑟瑟,伴着落叶,我踏入了校园,学习了第一个汉字——“火”。它只由简单的五笔构成,却形象地描绘了火的形态。汉字犹如活泼自在的精灵,蕴含着中华民族独特的审美观。她有形,有义,亦有情。细读她,就如一篇清新华丽的小说;细品她,犹如一幅灵动脱俗的水墨画。启蒙老师曾说过:“汉字她方方正正,是教导我们正直做人;她有菱有角,是让我们学会不卑不亢的态度。”简单的文字却蕴含着如此深刻的含义,让我不得不迷恋上她。

许久后,我有能力读书品字了,变热衷于幽默但极具讽刺意味的寓言故事。“邯郸学步”提醒我不能盲目模仿他人,“愚公移山”激励着我学会执着与坚持,“曲突徙薪”更是让我懂得了事先采取措施防止祸患发生……这样简单易懂的语言文化,使我的童年变得充实,让我从懵懂走向成熟……

渐渐地,我开始接触唐诗宋词,领略文人墨客的风流文采,感受骚客或悲壮或婉约的屡屡思绪。在应诏入京,供奉翰林之际,李白豪情满怀地高吟:“仰天大笑出门去,我辈岂是蓬蒿人。”在国破家亡之时,杜甫浸满忧患的笔下涌出“感时花溅泪,恨别鸟惊心”的绝世佳句。我们虽不能回溯到那个时代,但从他们精简的诗句中领会到李白的远大抱负,读出了晚唐时期社会的动乱。随着时间的推移,随着阅历的增加,随着学识的积累,我愈发能感受到文化散发的阵阵清香,能品味到它独特魅力。文化高雅的气质引领着我走入学海,让我陶醉其中,让我迷恋热爱。

中华五千年文化是一条历史长河,波涛滚滚,前进不息。华夏子孙应坚守本心,让善良相伴,让勇气相随,以诚信为友,以正义为伴,表达自己对华夏文化的热爱,表达自己对传统文化的浓厚情感,让这个拥有五千年历史的民族屹立于世界民族之强林。
