篇1:中国传统文化武术
全文共 2551 字
+ 加入清单中华武术是从中国传统文化中剥离与凸显出来的民族体育文化形式,根植于中国特有的历史传统和文化心理土壤。它除了具备一般的文化特点之外,还具有自己独特的内 涵和民族文化特征。一方面,它从不同的角度和侧面反映出 中华民族的社会、历史、政治、经济、文化、宗教、风俗与心理 等,另一方面,作为一种体育运动形式有着巨大的健身价值。 因此从中国传统文化内涵中研究、分析、提升中华武术的本 质特征,完整体现其精神实质,对传统文化的根脉, 继承、发展、推广、繁荣武术,正确把握武术运动的发展方向 具有十分重要的意义。
1 武术发展的历史文化探源
武术是农业社会的产物,在产生之初就带有传统文化的 韵味,从五、六十万年前的旧石器初期,“北京人”制造和使用 粗制石器及棍棒狩猎,逐步获得使用武器和格斗搏杀的技 能,产生武术格斗的技术萌芽,到“仰韶文化“中出现的石斧、 石刀、石铲 骨鱼又及石制与骨制的箭、镞等,人们获得了劈、 砍、刺、扎的技术概念;从“蚩尤氏与黄帝斗”、“共工氏与祝融战”等部落之间的战争实践中产生的徒手搏斗技 能、武器搏斗技能及空手夺刀技能到《吕氏春秋》中“昔阴康 氏之始,民气郁瘀滞著,筋骨瑟缩不达,故作舞之宣导之。”的 记载表明人们以“舞”的运动形式来锻炼筋骨、活动关节、调 节气息、祛除疾病;从周秦时代的“角力”、“手搏”、“击剑”、 “刺枪”,等到近代武术体系的初步形成,武术已从单一的健 身技能发展成为集竞争、健身 教育、娱乐、广适及艺术观赏 性于一体的综合运动形式,涵盖了“性命双修、心身并育”的 整体优化理论,把人与环境视为不断进行物质、能量和信息 交流的统一体,并把人体功能的强化和优化看作是一个精神 同物质紧密联系的统一活动体。回顾历史可以清楚地发 现,武术在其变迁、发展的过程中所具有的独特的文化特征, 它既有其自身发展的一般规律,同时也受到当时历史条件下 的政治、经济、文化等因素的影响和制约。因此,渊源悠久的 中华武术数千年来对于中国传统文化— 包括哲学思想、兵 学、宗教思想乃至中医学等有着诸多方面深刻的影响。 2 武术与中国传统文化
武术萌生于中国传统文化的土壤,其发展与演变过程亦 带着显著的传统文化烙印。中国传统文化以儒、道、佛为哲 学基础,这些哲学思想蕴含在武术搏击理论及实践运用中, 同时也形成了历代武术家个性气质的思想基础,像道家的柔 静,修身养性,凝神静气,提倡以人与自然为核心,以无为、虚 静、自然为主旨,注重人与天的和谐。佛家讲究调心、调身、 调息,主张明心见性,重在顿悟。儒家倡导以人与社会为核 心,以礼制心,注重内心的修养与社会实践等。
2.1 武术与中国传统哲学
《易经》是中国最古老的哲学著作,其中包含着某些原始而可贵的朴素辩证法思想的萌芽。《辞海》在“易传”条目中 写道:“内容保存了中国古代若干朴素辩证法的观点,在肯定 事物运动变化永无穷尽的基础上,猜测到事物发展到一定程 度,就要变为它的反面。”而武术正是以阴阳、五行、八卦、太 极等原理为指导,以养生修炼为手段;结合武术的格斗和套 路而形成的一种技艺。从拳术名称上可以看出,如:太极拳、 八卦掌等。太极二字出于《周易·系辞》:“是故易有太极,是 生两仪,两仪生四象,四象生八卦。”是说太极是一切原动力, 是人的完整的整体。人的腹部为太极之中枢,两腰为两仪, 两手两足为四象,四肢各有两关节为八卦。腹为全身最中 部,此处一动,上下皆动,故太极拳要求体松、气固、神凝。八 卦掌更是根据阴阳生克制化之理,并且又据先、后天八卦的 区别而运用到武术上。并以此生生克克,故有延绵不断之道 理。拳理中的动静、开合、虚实、现藏、攻防等,都是根据阴阳 学说而来。除此之外五行学说也是武术的重要理论基础,如 形意拳是以直线出击的崩拳属木行。同时以五行相克原理 解释拳式的攻防作用。即以相生理论说明易生相连的拳式, 以相克理论说明相互制约的拳式。再如中国传统哲学中“天 人合一“的观点施之于武术,则要求练习者要“内外合一”。 如六合拳讲究“手与眼合,步与身合,智与力合”等等。由此 可见,武术与中国传统哲学有着密切的关系,武术的形成与 发展,受到了中国古代哲学的深刻影响,不弄懂、弄通武术中 的哲学问题,就难于把握武术的真谛。
2.2 武术与基本中医理论
论渗透到武术之中,使武术运动具有防病治病之功效。中医 理论中的天人相应观念强调武术要“以心合意传统体育与中医学同源于国传统文化,其许多养生原理植根于中医学理论。把中医理论中的阴阳互补、五行反馈、动态平衡、中庸和谐、整体把握等一些思维方法和基本理,以意调气,以气促形,以形合神”,使“心、意、气、形、神”相和谐于一整体。并要使人的身体与整个自然和谐,并与四季变化相适应。阴阳学说更是在武术运动中处处体现,如太极拳运动对姿势的要求,要做到百会上领与沉肩坠肘、松腰敛臀相结合,含胸与拔背相结合等;动作技术要求上领下沉、前推后撑、左与右及上与下、前与后的劲力对拔拉长等;运动特点则表现为动静相合、练养相合、内外合一,动作左右对称、周而复始、一气呵成等。在长拳中则表现为以动为主,动中求静、静中寓动、攻中寓防、防中有攻,培补元气,内外兼修。在形意拳中,其拳理、拳法则体现了五行思想的内涵。脏腑与经络学说在武术中的表现为意守丹田,虚领顶颈,腹式呼吸,松和自然,循经取动,疏通经络等等。中医理论与武术文化,理论同源,相辅。
3 结语
武术融健身、搏击、观赏为一体,既具备了人类体育活动 强身健体的共同特征,又具有东方文明所特有的哲理性、科 学性、艺术性,是一种特殊的民族文化形态,是中华文化重要
的组成部分,是人类文明流动的传奇。将武术作为文化形态 来研究,无疑可使人们在高层次上对武术重新认识。随着人 类社会的发展和各民族文化的相互交融渗透,特别是希望武 术进入奥运会的今天,挖掘武术文化的内涵更具有现实意 义。正如李瑞环同志所言,中国是一个文化遗产很丰厚的国 家,这既使人们引以为豪,也使我们感到责任重大。对待这 些文化遗产,处理得好,会成为培育民族精神的珍贵养料。 必须采取科学的态度,对于优秀的传统文化,要着眼于新的 时代需求,取其精华,使之更好地为现实服务。因为只有民 族的,才是世界的。
篇2:五年级讲解中国的世界文化遗产作文600字
全文共 711 字
+ 加入清单重庆山清水秀,有着许多风景名胜。这次社会实践活动,我们去了重庆人引以为傲的大足石刻。
我们来到大足石刻风景点,整顿集合后,工作人员便给我们每个人发了一套古色古香的汉服。穿上汉服,同学们各个都像古代汉人一般。第一站,我们前往孔庙。在走向孔庙的路上,我们听到了悦耳动听的鸟鸣声,闻到了浓郁的花香。孔庙是祭祀中国古代著名思想家、教育家孔子的祠庙,其建筑精致且具有特色。在老师的指导下,我们恭恭敬敬地叩拜了被称为万世师表的孔子像,而后谢师恩,诵经典,仿佛回到了古代私塾!
之后,我们参观了大足石刻博物馆。博物馆建筑宏伟,里面收藏着价值连城的宝贵佛像,完整展现了佛教由西向东逐渐发展的过程。每尊佛像都栩栩如生,有的双手合十,有的双手举过头顶,有的面带微笑儒雅大气,有的眉毛上挑严肃凝重……老师告诉我们,佛教传入中国之后,很好地融入了中国传统文化,也成为了我们中国人重要的宗教文化之一。
随后,我们进行了别致的女红课程体验。女红,是缝纫的古代称呼。针、线、纺织、缝纫,对于青少年的我们来说,那是非常陌生的词汇,而且鲜有体验的机会。每个同学都兴奋不已,跃跃欲试。看完工作人员一丝不苟地演示后,我们开始亲自实践了。我拿起针,小心翼翼地一针一线地缝着。不一会儿,线就不听使唤了,全部从针眼滑落了。我拿起线,对准针眼,可就是穿不过去啊,我急得满头是汗,最后还是在工作人员的帮助下才把线穿了过去。经过大约半个小时的穿针引线,一个展翅欲飞的蝴蝶便“诞生”了。在一针一线的女红中,我体会到了古人的智慧和传统文化的魅力。
经过一天传统文化的洗礼,让我对中国传统文化有了更深的了解,产生了浓厚的兴趣。我下定决心要更多地学习中国传统文化,更好地弘扬中国传统文化。
篇3:年级写传统节日小学三年级中国传统文化作文
全文共 648 字
+ 加入清单小学三年级中国传统文化作文:春节 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。商场是人山人海,购买年货,可热闹了。
奶奶准备了丰盛的食物,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!
我还喜欢过“重阳节”,农历9月9日,是中国的一个古老的传统佳节——重阳节。 重阳节,又称“老人节”。重阳这一天,人们赏菊花,佩带茱萸,携酒上山,畅游欢愉。这一天放学,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,还吃了元宵,猜了灯谜,还到公园里观了灯。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,它是中国的文化。我了解的传统节日还有:端午节、清明、七夕节、中秋节等。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节日,并永远继承下去。
中国的传统文化更是光辉灿烂的古代文化,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。
篇4:四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。
篇5:关于中国传统文化
全文共 305 字
+ 加入清单中国传统文化丰富多彩!有猜灯谜、包饺子、舞狮、剪纸等等。其中,我最喜欢中国的书法,因为中国的书法博大精深,渊源流长。
书法是我国的瑰宝。妈妈告诉我,历代书法家有:欧阳修、颜真卿、柳公权、赵孟頫,他们被称为书法四体。妈妈曾经带我去看过书法展览,有些写得方方正正的是楷书,有些写得龙飞凤舞的是草书。虽然有些我看不懂,但觉得很漂亮。妈妈说,中国的毛笔书法有三千多年的历史,我们要继续发扬光大。所以我有空就向妈妈学习写毛笔字。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!
篇6:中国传统文化危机四伏作文
全文共 695 字
+ 加入清单中国传统文化面临着重重危机。就拿传统节日而言,目前的传统节日处境十分尴尬,而外来节日却备受推崇,每逢洋节,那种喧嚣让人目瞪口呆,而中国的某些节日却相当冷清,比如七夕。
七夕是中国的传统情人节,其历史可追溯到2000多年以前。它跟家喻户晓的牛郎和织女的爱情故事有关。时至今日七夕并没有列入法定节假日,大多数人不过七夕,甚至还有人不知道七夕是什么。
西方的情人节在中国相当红火,满街上的青年男女捧着玫瑰、巧克力,浪漫如海;欢乐如洋。
为什么中国古老的传统节日会遭到国人的拒绝呢?我问过好多人,其中大多数人都知道七夕,相当一部分人认为节日单调不知道怎么过。在市场上西方情人节的商业价值要比七夕大多的多。
在好多的节日中都有一个物质载体。比如端午节吃粽子;中秋节吃月饼;西方情人节送玫瑰、巧克力,而七夕却没有物质载体,久而久之就会被人忽略,逐渐淡出人们的记忆。这样一些外国节日就会趁虚而入。如果我们不重视起来总有一天回被西方情人节取而代之的。
中国是世界四大文明古国之一,连祖宗留下的文化都保不住,这是民族的悲哀。传统文化的衰落可以看成是民族文化的一种断裂,造成这种局面的原因很复杂。但无论如何,我们都不能眼睁睁地看着一些精良美好的传统从我们生活中消失。
我们在吸取外来文化的同时应该更热爱传统文化。我们立法应该高度重视传统文化的传承,必须采取一切可以采取的措施,高度重视民族民间传统文化。其实,要像七夕这样的传统文化不被外来情人节取代,一方面要做到敝帚自珍,另一方面要不断为传统文化增加新内涵,注入新血液。不然,即便一时间内能抵抗外来文化的冲击,时间久了,也会被我们自己拒之门外的。

篇7:中国文化到底将何去何从作文800字
全文共 770 字
+ 加入清单我们可以在闲暇之时,坐一把长椅,品一壶香茗,捧一卷古书,与历史一起回顾初唐的雁落平沙、晚清的凄凉渔歌。而此中意境,是中国几千年不朽的精华,必将世代流传!
时光流转,有了光纤,信息可以一日千里;有了卫星,图文转换可以万里传音;有了飞船,我们可以飞向太空。
可是,文化可以在时空中穿越吗?卫星换不到李白的“举杯邀明月”,唤不到柳永的“寒蝉凄切”,唤不到曹雪芹的“一把辛酸泪”。
信息的数字化,让青铜器般的华夏艺韵变得浮夸,让唐诗、宋词、元曲的赞歌流于形式,这时文化就在悄悄迷失,就连我们母语现状也令人担忧。
某校为鼓励学生学习外语,规定早餐时间禁止使用外语;综艺节目中叫嚣的是诸如“好好可爱”般错位的形容词;中国人对于外语学习的热情让你一闭眼就以为自己到了牛津,睁开眼才发现自己是在天津;广告、报纸上更是错字连篇……
又如二胡,在重金属充溢的时代,谁还会为一把二胡叹息,为一首二胡曲而掬一把廉价的眼泪呢?人们一窝蜂地追求潮流、流行文化,而视古典文化如草芥,不禁令人扼腕叹息。
不过,社会上也不乏一些拯救中国文化的现象。例如,央视的《中国汉字听写大会》更是以一种非常单纯、简朴的方式,吸引观众在电视机前同步参与,在游戏中学习知识、领略汉字之美,让中国汉字文化得到继承和发扬。
家风传承,潜移默化的文化熏陶。传统中国式大家庭中,对家族观念的营造、对祖先的追缅是维系家庭伦常的重要手段,也是家风的重要载体。现代社会,随着传统大家庭的解体,家庭成员的流动日趋普遍,尤其是社会价值观的转变,家风传承逐渐式微。当然,传统仪式我们没有必要完全复制,但如何传承家风的确是一个值得深思的问题。
提起四大名著,不禁让人感慨万千,位于四大名著之首的《红楼梦》竟被列于“死活读不下去”之榜首,实在是令人心寒。
在信息技术日新月异的今天,中国传统是否还有立足之地,中国文化到底将何去何从?

篇9:中国传统文化作文1000字
全文共 1219 字
+ 加入清单中国历史的长河像一本本文字斑驳的古书叠摞着,一直地、不停地在蜿蜒前进,我愿化作一叶扁舟,泛舟于这壮阔的长河中。
第一站:饮食
民以食为天。《舌尖上的中国》红遍大江南北,在吃的方面上,中国人一向是最讲究的。它四季有别,风味多样,不仅讲究美感,也要注重情趣。更有甚者食医结合,以求强身健体。唐宋时期“素蒸声音部,罔川图小样”的烧尾宴,到明清的满汉全席,无不显现了当时饮食的最高水平。时至今日,各式各样的糕点,琳琅满目的菜系被摆上中国人的饭桌,历经时间的沉淀,风味不减,风韵犹存,刺激着人们的味蕾。
再说茶文化,那更是博大精深。它与丝绸一同传到西域乃至欧洲,成为传统文化中独具特色的一面旗帜。中国人喝茶讲究一个“品”字。品的不仅是茶的优劣,也是悠然情趣与人生百态。
第二站:礼仪
从中国古代董仲舒“罢黜百家,独尊儒术”开始,儒家成为中国最有影响力的学派之一。丝毫不夸张地说,中国人骨子里的责任思想、忠孝思想、恕的思想、伦理道德观念都是儒家学说渗透的结果。
古有孔融让梨、王祥孝母,今有背母上课的陈斌强,拾荒助学老人刘盛兰,他们身上的正能量如雨丝一点点地浸润这个社会,温暖一个个路人的心。知书达礼是每一个中国人出门在外的名片。中国外交部更是竭诚相待,遵循和平共处五项原则,情礼兼到,这般深厚的礼仪让中国坐实了礼仪之邦的称号。
第三站:科技
游到此处,不禁动情。在今年的3月10号0时28分,我国长征火箭成功将“中星6C”卫星发射升空,再创纪录!这支火箭凝聚了科学家的心血,承载着中国人满心的欣喜,见证着中国科技发展以来的一个个里程碑。
1953~1957年间的“一五计划”,1964年成功爆炸了中国第一枚原子弹,2003年载人火箭成功升空……中国由落后的农业大国开始一步一个脚印,心如磐石,面对西方国家早已发展的如日中天的压力,承载着人民的希翼,中国这只沉睡的雄狮终于如拿破仑所说的“当它醒来时,全世界将为之震动”般实现了如虎添翼。
这一切一切,离不开每一个国人与科研者的努力。正是中国人的众志成城,中国如今的前途不可限量!这种对祖国的甘于奉献的精神,无非是源于对祖国的信心,因为他们所许的每一个承诺会在今后一一实现,即使会迟到,也不会缺席。
第四站:终站亦为新的序幕
十八大以来,习主席在多个场合谈到中国传统文化,提倡文化自信。只有坚持从历史走向未来,从延续民族文化血脉中开拓前进,我们才能做好今天乃至以后的事业。
从过去的“出国潮”到今天的“海归热”,越来越多的青年追随着文化与内心的牵绊回到祖国。文化无论从何时何地来说,它是个羁绊,一个人与人的联系;它还是一个媒介,一个连通过去现在未来的三通媒介。身为一个中国人,勿忘文化传统,传承文化自信是对古人的尊敬,对历史的崇仰,对未来的基石。
我们于这漫漫历史长河不过是不起眼的小水花与细石,但正是由于我们,河会从我们身上缓缓流淌过,流向无限延伸的远方。我愿来世再化作撑舟人,在河心悠悠地驶过,与天地畅谈这源远流长的中国文化。
篇10:美国独特文化作文及翻译
全文共 15203 字
+ 加入清单American culture is unique because it is nurtured, formed and developed under certain conditions, which are characteristically(特性)American. The major factors contributing to the making of this new nation and the forming of a new culture are the hard environment, ethnic diversity(多民族) and plural religion, which is quite different from other nations in the world. What is more, these elements are still influencing the American culture.
1. Rough Environment
The early immigrants who were English Puritans settled down in northeast part of American. The environment there was very rough but they believed the poor land could purify their mind so they chose the place along the coast. From 1607 to 1892, frontiers were pushed further west. The American frontier consisted of the relatively unsettled regions of the United States, usually found in the western part of the country. The frontiersmen looked for a land of rich resources and a land of promise, opportunity and freedom. Actually they looked for a better life. So individualism, self-reliance, and equality of opportunity have perhaps been the values most closely associated with the frontier heritage(遗产) of American.
2. Ethnic Diversity
The population of the United States includes a large variety of ethnic groups coming from many races, nationalities, and religions. People refer to the United States as "melting pot "and the dominant people are British. American is made up of WASP MM, that is, White, Anglo Saxon, Protestants plus Middle Class and Male. In history, people from different countries in the world rushed to American three times. They brought their own culture to American and later on different cultures were mixed together. Thus the unique American culture is formed, a common cultural life with commonly shared values.
3. Plural religion
The fundamental American belief in individual freedom and the right of individuals to practice their own religion is at the center of religious experience in the United States. The great diversity of ethnic backgrounds has produced religious pluralism; almost all of the religions of the world are now practiced in the United States. Christianity(基督教) is the dominant religion in American and Protestant (新教)is predominate(主导)。 Any individuals are equal before God and they believe they can communicate directly to God so they can share the same idea. Under the protestant, many new ones are formed and different explanations produce different sect of religion. Churches are independent and American religion is no longer religion seculars. The institution permits the practice of religion and the political power is separate form religion. So there are more religions in American than in other countries.
4. Current influence:
Nowadays, we can see the continual influence of the three elements in the current American society. American family is typically parents and their unmarried children. Middle-aged and elderly people generally do not live with their married children. Many Americans live in mobile homes whose homes are built with wheels. They can be moved. The people in American have a very strong desire to start a new life in a new place. Quite a number of people change residences(住所) every year. The average American moves fourteen times in his lifetime. The courage to try something new has been an American characteristic. American democracy means majority rule, but it also means protection of minority rights. There are certain freedom which the United States promises to all its citizens and members of minority group cannot be denied these rights by a vote of the majority. Americans also like to be involved in many challenge activities and sports to show their adventurous spirits. All of these are affected by the heritage of the American history.
From the facts above, we can see American culture is unique which was cultivated, formed and developed by the main three factors, rough environment, ethnic diversity and plural religion and still is affected and determined by them now.
美国人最喜欢的小食品鸡翅
From its humble beginnings and unlikely origins, the chicken wing has become one of Americas best-loved snack foods.
The chicken wing first evolved from soup stock staple to American delicacy in 1964. John E. Harmon, in his Atlas of Popular Culture of the Northeastern United States, points to the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, N.Y. as the birthplace of wings. In 40- plus years, chicken wings have become a truly all-American food, showing up on dinner tables, at neighborhood bars, and in chain restaurants, pizza joints and even restaurants where the wings themselves are the focus.
Pace Foods has improved on the original formula for chicken wings with a recipe that combines the spice of Pace Picante Sauce, the sweetness of honey and the zest of fresh ginger to create Hot `nHoneyed Chicken Wings.
"Pace Picante Sauce isnt just for dipping,"said Chris Foley with Pace Foods. "A recipe like Hot `nHoneyed Chicken Wings, which combines sweet and spicy flavors of the Old Southwest and the Far East, shows how versatile, and yet how easy, it can be in cooking."
With this recipe, Pace Foods had taken the delicacy created in snowy Buffalo and made it the perfect summer food.
鸡翅越来越成为美国人最喜欢的小食品。1964年的时候它首先是在汤里出现的。John E. Harmon在他的美国东北部通俗文化地图集里指出鸡翅已经成为全美真正的食物,它在晚餐桌上,在邻居酒吧里,在连锁餐饮店里,在比萨店里,甚至在一些餐馆里它是主打菜。

美国 Alagnak Wild River(奔河)
Alagnak Wild River is located in the beautiful Aleutian Range. The river provides unparalleled opportunities to experience the wilderness of the Alaska Peninsula.
The Alagnak Wild River, designated as a wild river by Title VI, Section 601(25) and 603(44) of ANILCA, preserves the upper 56 miles of the river in a free-flowing condition, and protects the river and its immediate environments for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations. The river is managed free of impoundments and diversion, inaccessible by road, its shorelines primitive and its water unpolluted. The Alagnak is the most popular fly-in fishery in southwest Alaska, and has experienced a significant increase in use over the last several years.

夏天是美国人旅游的好季节
Its summertime, and the livinis easy. For many Americans, this is the season to travel. Why? Because school is out. Because the weather is great. And most of all, because we all deserve a break. When Americans take a break, they often head for their favorite vacation spot.
Throughout their history, Americans have been people on the move. The early immigrants had to travel to get to the New World. Once they arrived, they settled along the East Coast. But they werent content to stay there. Explorers and traders journeyed to the unknown western territories. Later, settlers moved west to develop these new areas. As a result of this westward migration, Americans eventually occupied the whole continent-from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Even today, Americans seem unable to stay put. Research says that the average American moves every five years.
Besides their habit of changing addresses, Americans are used to traveling. Some people make long-distance commutes to work daily. Their jobs may even require them to take frequent business trips. Most companies provide an annual vacation for their employees, and people often use that time to travel. Some people just visit friends or relatives in distant states. Others go on low-budget weekend excursions and stay in economy motels. Those with more expensive tastes choose luxurious resorts and hotels. Camping out in the great outdoors appeals to adventurous types. Some travel in recreational vehicles (RVs) to camp out in comfort, while others "rough it"by sleeping in tents.
Most Americans prefer to travel within their nations borders. Why? For one thing, its cheaper than traveling abroad, and theres no language problem. But besides that, the vast American territory offers numerous tourist attractions. Nature lovers can enjoy beaches, mountains, canyons, lakes and a wealth of natural wonders. Major cities offer visitors a multitude of urban delights. The convenience of modern freeways, railways and airplanes makes travel in America as easy as pie.
Many American vacations are as unique as the people who take them. Families often plan their trips with the kids in mind. More and more "family friendly"vacation resorts offer special programs for children. History buffs seek out famous historical sites and museums. Environmentalists prefer "green vacations."These trips allow them to observe flora and fauna up-close without disturbing the sensitive balance of nature. Some people find sea cruises relaxing and refreshing. Others hit the water to go fishing, skiing or white-water rafting. Daring souls get the thrill of a lifetime on trekking expeditions and safaris in remote places from Africa to Asia.
Americans arent the only people in the world who travel. International business, mass communication and jet airplanes have created a world of globetrotters. People all over the world enjoy going abroad to travel. And no matter where they live, people enjoy visiting scenic spots in their own country. But being on the go makes Americans what they are: people on the move. In America, almost every-body is a tourist sometime.
夏天到了,生活很惬意。对很多美国人来说,这是个旅游的季节,为什么?因为学校放假,因为天气很好,但最重要的是,休个假是我们所应得的。美国人休假时经常会去他们最喜欢的渡假地点。
纵观整个历史,美国人一直是个迁移的民族。早期的移民者必须长途跋涉才能抵达新大陆,他们一到达就沿着东岸定居,但却不满于长居那地,冒险家和商人旅行至未知的西部地区。稍后,移民者也向西迁移去开发这些新地区。由于向西迁移,美国人最后占据了整块新大陆——从大西洋到太平洋。即使到今天,美国人似乎仍然无法在一地久居。根据研究,美国人平均每五年要搬一次家。
除了搬家的习惯以外,美国人也很习惯旅行。有些人每天上下班得做长距离的通勤,工作上甚至经常需要因公旅行。大部分的公司每年会提供年假给员工,人们通常会利用这段时间去旅行。有些人去远一点的别州拜访朋友或亲戚,有些则在周末有个经济的小假期,并住在花费不高的旅馆里。品味较昂贵的人选择豪华的渡假地点和饭店;绝佳的户外露营则吸引冒险型的人。有些人开着旅行车出游,以舒适的方式露营;有些人则睡帐篷尝试野外生活。
大部分美国人比较喜欢在国内旅游,为什么呢?其中一个原因是,国内旅游比国外旅游便宜,也没有语言不通的问题。但除此原因以外,占地极广的美国国土提供了许多能吸引游客的地点。爱好大自然的人可以到海滩、山上、峡谷、湖泊和很多大自然奇景地区游览。大城市也提供给游客们很多都市型态的娱乐。现代高速公路、铁路和飞机使得在美国旅行很容易。
很多美国假期非常特别,和参与此种假期的人一样特别。全家出游时通常会将孩子考虑在内,有愈来愈多「适合全家出游」的渡假地点为孩子提供特别的活动。对历史有兴趣的人会找一些著名的历史据点和博物馆。有环保意识的人喜欢「环保假期」,这样的旅行使他们能近距离观察动植物,并且不会扰乱了大自然敏感的生态平衡。有些人觉得海上旅游能使心情放松并感到清爽,有些人则到水边钓鱼、滑水或泛舟。胆子大的人到亚洲和非洲去探险狩猎作长途旅行,享受一辈子难得一次的刺激。
美国人不是世上唯一爱旅行的人。国际企业、大众传播与喷射机创造了一个环游世界者的世纪。全世界的人都喜欢到海外旅游,不管住在那里,人们都喜欢去造访自己国家内风景优美的地区。不过好动的本性使美国人变成今天的模样:成为爱迁移的人。在美国,几乎每个人都有旅游的经验。
美式食物:吃什么就成为什么样子
"You are what you eat."Nutrition experts often use this saying to promote better eating habits. What we put in our mouths does become a part of us. But we can look at this statement another way. What we eat reflects who we are——as people and as a culture. Do you want to understand another culture? Then you ought to find out about its food. Learning about American food can give us a real taste of American culture.
What is "American food"? At first you might think the answer is easy as pie. To many people, American food means hamburgers, hot dogs, fried chicken and pizza. If you have a "sweet tooth,"you might even think of apple pie or chocolate chip cookies. Its true that Americans do eat those things. But are those the only kind of vittles you can find in America?
Except for Thanksgiving turkey, its hard to find a typically "American"food. The United States is a land of immigrants. So Americans eat food from many different countries. When people move to America, they bring their cooking styles with them. Thats why you can find almost every kind of ethnic food in America. In some cases, Americans have adopted foods from other countries as favorites. Americans love Italian pizza, Mexican tacos and Chinese egg rolls. But the American version doesnt taste quite like the original!
As with any large country, the U.S.A has several distinct regions. Each region boasts its own special style of food. Visit the South and enjoy country-style cooking. Journey through Louisiana for some spicy Cajun cuisine. Take a trip to New England and sample savory seafood dishes. Travel through the Midwest, "the breadbasket of the nation,"for delicious baked goods. Cruise over to the Southwest and try some tasty Tex-Mex treats. Finish your food tour in the Pacific Northwest with some gourmet coffee.
Americans living at a fast pace often just "grab a quick bite."Fast food restaurants offer people on the run everything from fried chicken to fried rice. Microwave dinners and instant foods make cooking at home a snap. Of course, one of the most common quick American meals is a sandwich. If it can fit between two slices of bread, Americans probably make a sandwich out of it. Peanut butter and jelly is an all-time American favorite.
Americans on the go also tend to eat a lot of "junk food."Potato chips, candy bars, soft drinks and other goodies are popular treats. Many people eat too many of these unhealthy snacks. But others opt for more healthy eating habits. Some even go "all natural."They refuse to eat any food prepared with chemicals or additives.
American culture is a good illustration of the saying "you are what you eat."Americans represent a wide range of backgrounds and ways of thinking. The variety of foods enjoyed in the U.S. reflects the diversity of personal tastes. The food may be international or regional. Sometimes its fast, and sometimes its not so fast. It might be junk food, or maybe its natural food. In any case, the style is all-American.
"你吃什么就成为什么样子"营养专家经常使用这句话来倡导更好的饮食习惯,入嘴的东西确实成为我们的一部分。但我们也可以从另一个角度来看这句话,我们所吃的反映出我们自己——不论就人或文化而言。你想了解另一种文化吗?那么你应该去认识他们的食物。认识美国食物可以让我们得知美国文化的精髓。
何谓「美式食物」?乍听之下你可能认为答案容易得很。对许多人而言,美式食物就是汉堡、热狗、炸鸡和披萨。如果你是好吃甜食的人,你可能会想到苹果派或巧克力片饼干。美国人确实吃这些东西,但这些就是你在美国唯一找得到的食物吗?
除了感恩节火鸡以外,挺难找到典型的美国食物。美国是个移民之地,所以美国人吃的食物来自许多不同的国家,当人们移居美国,他们也将自己的烹调带了进来。那也就是为什么在美国你几乎可以看到所有不同民族的食物。在某些情况中,美国人把外国的食物视为最爱。美国人喜爱意大利的披萨,墨西哥的玉米饼和中国的春卷,但是这些东西的美国版味道却不很道地!
和许多大国一样,美国有数个截然不同的地区,每个地区都以自己特有的食物夸口。走访美国南部享受乡村式的烹调;到路易斯安纳州品尝辛辣的凯郡式料理;走一趟新英格兰试尝它美味的海鲜;再到中西部「美国的面包之乡」品尝可口的烘培食品;乘船游览至西南部尝试一些好吃的墨式德州小吃,最后到太平洋西北岸,啜饮美食家的咖啡,作为美食之旅的句点。
生活在快速步调之下的美国人通常只能「很快地吃几口」。快餐店提供赶时间的人各种食物,从炸鸡到炒饭,应有尽有。微波炉晚餐和实时餐点使得在家烧饭省事又快速。当然,最平常的美式速餐之一就是三明治。任何能夹在两片土司中间的东西,美国人就可以把它作成一份三明治,花生酱和果酱更是一直都深受美国人的喜爱。
忙碌的美国人也趋向于吃一大堆「垃圾食物」。洋芋片、糖果、汽水和其它好吃的东西都颇受欢迎。许多人吃了太多这类不健康的零嘴,但是其它人则选择较健康的饮食习惯,有些人甚至选择「全天然」的食物,他们拒绝吃任何有化学制品或添加物的食物。
美国文化是「你吃什么就成为什么样子」这句话的好写照。美国人代表了范围广泛的背景和想法。在美国可享受到的各式食物正反映出个人品味的多样化。这食物可能是国际性也可能是地区性的;有时是快餐,有时也不见得;它可能是垃圾食物,也可能是天然食品。然而无论如何,它们都是美式的。

+ 加入清单6.Bounded By Wellness
Send Healing To Yourself
Most people, when given an opportunity to aid someone in need, are eager to do whatever they can to be of service. Those of us who have chosen to make healing the world a vocation are grateful for any occasion to send light and love to people in our immediate spheres of influence and beyond. As we apply our passion and our principles to this altruistic endeavor, we often forget to send ourselves the same bountiful gifts of wellness, though we ourselves may be in dire need of it. We overlook ourselves, not because we forget, but because we fear that focusing on the self is an indicator of selfishness. It is moreover much more difficult to heal oneself than to heal others because the seeds of uncertainty are more easily banished when we act on anothers behalf. When we send healing light to ourselves, it is important that our intentions and our self-trust be stronger than ever to counteract doubt. As we bless ourselves in this way, we serve as both an active channel and a passive destination. This should not change the way we interact with the valuable energy we wish to receive, however. Though we may be tempted to consciously direct or influence the manner in which light impacts our lives because we know ourselves most intimately, we should not try to control its path. When we draw the white light of protection and purity to our bodies, taking it into ourselves with each inhalation, our belief in the fact that it will naturally move toward areas of dysfunction will ensure that it flows through every muscle and organ. And when we fill our spaces with this light, our environments are cleared of all the negative energy that can sap our strength and our spirit. Surrounded inside and out with healing light, we feel safe and protected, healthy, relaxed, and content just as those who regularly receive such loving gifts from us do. If you sincerely believe that there is a part of yourself that exists independently of upset and illness, the love and light you send yourself will help you connect with it. You will see the affirmative impact of this connection almost immediately when you include yourself in the recipients of your healing gifts, as lifes frustrations become more tolerable and your bliss becomes ever more palpable.
篇12:中学作文:中国教育vs美国教育
全文共 926 字
+ 加入清单大多数中国人只认为中国有5000多年的历史是件好事,却没有想到这其实也是一件坏事——这会让中国人各各变的很保守。
中国教育是属于老一套的革命教育,只知道学习,学习,学习,好象学习就代表一切!分数就可以决定一个学生的命运似的。与其说很多家长爱孩子,倒不如说是爱分数——一旦一个孩子的成绩不好了,还有多少人爱他们呢?分数已经大于孩子自己了!分数和孩子之间的概练已经成这个算是了:分数>孩子!
而美国教育是注重培养学生的动手能力。在美国的课堂里,让学生动手的时候很多。美术课是刻字,下课前所有的作品全部挂出来展示,让成就感时刻伴你左右;陶艺课的陶瓷作品全部贴上标签。作者,干了以后下节课涂色,全部完工后展示,再还给学生本人,学生的能力就是这样在不知不觉中得到提高,兴趣也自然而然追随左右。学校的文体活动丰富多采。纽约州阿尔巴尼市松树地镇的斯蒂辛高级中学曾经接待过几个南京老师和学生,在校期间,他们观看了学校举行的一场校级篮球比赛。用他们的话来说:“那激烈的比赛,那高技术含量的女子拉拉队,精湛的球艺热情高涨的观众,怎么也比的过五台山体育馆的省级比赛!让我死活不肯相信这只是一场校级篮球比赛。后来经过核实,我们才相信这是真的。学生告诉我们,这样的比赛每星期会举行三次!”老天!相比下而言,我们中国的学生瘦弱的多。但这并不能怪我们学生啊,想想,中国大多数学生大多数时间都被繁重的学业占据了哪里能有多少时间锻炼?我想,这是中国教育的一大失败而在美国的一个普通家庭,他们家里就有台球桌,游戏球桌,还有一个简易的高尔夫场。一个家庭的两个上高二双胞胎儿子,一到家打大球,做做作业,院子里有一个简易的高尔夫球场两个儿子都爱打高尔夫,每周出去打两次,过得很充实,成绩也很优秀。其他学生家里也有各式各样的活动器材。老天!我长这么大,高尔夫球没摸过,网球没碰过,乒乓球没真正的打过,二胡没拉过(作为一个炎黄子孙,真的很惭愧!吉他没碰过,钢琴,小提琴,扬琴,大提琴,双簧管,葫芦丝,古琴也都没摸过!连最的电子琴也没碰过!
我想最完美的教育应该是美国学生的素质能力加上中国学生的优异成绩。但我想,这大概很难,一旦有了注重培养素质能力,成绩大概就不会优异了!

篇13:中国饮食文化作文800字
全文共 812 字
+ 加入清单中国饮食文化,由于特定的经济结构,思维方式与文化环境,形成了自身鲜明的特点,主要表现在下面六个方面。
选料,是中国厨师的首要技艺,是做好一品中国好菜肴美食的基础,要具备丰富的知识和熟练运用的技巧,每种菜肴美食所取的原料,包括主料,配料、辅料、调料等,都有很多讲究和一定之规,概而言之,则是“精”、“细”二字,孔子所说的“食不厌精,脍不厌细”也。所谓“精”,指所选取的原料,要考虑其品种、产地、季节、生长期等特点,以新鲜肥嫩、质料优良为佳。
刀功,即厨师对原料进行刀法处理,是成为烹调师需要的,整齐一致的形态,以适应火候,受热均匀,使于入味,并保持一定的形态美,因而是烹调技术的关键之一。我国早在古代就重视刀法的运用,经过历代厨师的反复实践创造了丰富的刀法,如直刀法,片刀法,斜刀法,剞刀法和雕刻刀法等,把原料加工成各种各样的形态和各种各样的花色,还可以镂空成美丽的图案花纹,雕刻成“喜”、“寿”、“福”、“禄”字样,增添喜庆筵席的欢乐气氛。特别是刀技和拼摆手法相结合,把熟料和可食生料拼成艺术性强,形象逼真的鸟、兽、虫、鱼、花、草等花式拼盘,如“龙凤呈祥”、“孔雀开屏”等。
火候,是形成菜肴美食的风味特色的关键之一,但火候瞬息万变,没有多年操作实践经验很难做到恰好处,因而掌握火候是中国厨师的一门绝技。中国厨师能精确鉴别旺火、中火、微火等不同火力,熟悉了解各种原料的耐热程度,熟悉控制用火时间,善于掌控传热物体的性能,还能根据原料的老嫩程度,水分多少,形态大小,整碎厚薄等,确定下锅次序,加以灵活运用;使烹制出的菜肴,要嫩就嫩,要酥就酥,要烂就烂。
烹调技法,是我国厨师的又一门绝技。常用的技法有:炒、爆、炸、烹、溜、煎、贴、烩、扒、烧、炖、焖、氽、煮、酱、卤、蒸、烤、炝、拌、熏、以及甜品的拔丝、蜜汁、挂霖等。
调料,也是烹调的百味香。
我们只有准确把握了这六方面,才能深刻地理解中华饮食文化,因则才能更好地继承和弘扬中华饮食文化。

篇17:外国礼仪文化英语
全文共 1651 字
+ 加入清单Of course, the main difference on the Chinese dinner table is chopsticks instead of knife and fork, but that’s only superficial. Besides, in decent restaurants, you can always ask for a pair of knife and fork, if you find the chopsticks not helpful enough. The real difference is that in the West, you have your own plate of food, while in China the dishes are placed on the table and everyone shares. If you are being treated to a formal dinner and particularly if the host thinks you’re in the country for the first time, he will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishes.
The meal usually begins with a set of at least four cold dishes, to be followed by the main courses of hot meat and vegetable dishes. Soup then will be served (unless in Guangdong style restaurants) to be followed by staple food ranging from rice, noodles to dumplings. If you wish to have your rice to go with other dishes, you should say so in good time, for most of the Chinese choose to have the staple food at last or have none of them at all.
Perhaps one of the things that surprises a Western visitor most is that some of the Chinese hosts like to put food into the plates of their guests. In formal dinners, there are always "public" chopsticks and spoons for this purpose, but some hosts may use their own chopsticks. This is a sign of genuine friendship and politeness. It is always polite to eat the food. If you do not eat it, just leave the food in the plate.
People in China tend to over-order food, for they will find it embarrassing if all the food is consumed. When you have had enough, just say so. Or you will always overeat!
篇18:中国文化的传承作文

+ 加入清单中国是一个拥有几千年文化历史的古老的国家,一代一代的人相继继承并扩展上一代人的才艺与知识,将中国的文化永远的传承下去。可看看现在的中国人,一切都要追求潮流、时尚,将中国人以前的习俗、习惯通通抛之于脑后。在他们追求那些所谓的时尚的过程中,逐渐就迷失了中国人的本性。
«西游记»,它是我国四大名著之一。在以前,西游记几乎可以说是人人皆知,不论是三岁孩童到70岁的老人,提起西游记,没有一个摇头说不知道的。可现在呢?曾经老少皆爱、脍炙人口的西游记退位了,一个个他过制的影视出现在中国人电视的荧屏上。问问现在的小孩子,孙悟空是谁,十个里面至少有七个是不知道的。
京剧是我国三大国粹之一。现在只有年纪比较大的老人偶尔会听听京剧,而有百分之七十五的年轻人都不会“浪费时间”去听那些对于他们来说是无聊的京剧。他们觉得,只有那些节奏感很强的流行音乐才是现代人该听的音乐,可现代人不是中国人吗?中国人该做的事情不是将中国文化传承下去吗?可是,越来越少的人去学习京剧,京剧的许多戏种也被慢慢的遗弃、丢失,等中国人觉悟、后悔,再回过头再去找那些戏种时才发现,那些文化的瑰宝早已在他们追求时尚之时,遗失在他们自己的手中。等到那个时候再后悔,就迟了啊。
有的人知道自己是中国人,知道自己应该爱国,但却从来去做中国人该做的事,从来不去保护祖先留给后代的珍贵的文化财产,那他知道自己是中国人有什么用?只不过是挂着爱国的名号欺骗自己罢了。
和他国相互沟通,相互取进固然重要,可千万不要在这取进中丢失了中国人的本性!

+ 加入清单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.

+ 加入清单“新年好!”听到这样的声音,大家都会猜到是过年了。去年过年,在我身上发生了一件有趣的事。
春节期间人们都会放鞭炮、吃饺子、穿新衣,迎接春天的到来。大年三十的晚上,我和叔叔一起到外面放鞭炮。
叔叔拿着炮盒拉着我说:“放炮时,要把炮扔远点……。”叔叔在给我讲放炮的注意事项。“好,开始放吧!”“叔叔,先给我做个示范,行吗?”我“可怜巴巴”地看着叔叔,“好吧!”叔叔一手拿着炮,一手打开打火机,随着炮的点燃,炮开始冒白烟。叔叔快速一扔,鞭炮在落地的瞬间炸响了。“你来。”我拿过炮,打火机还没开呢,我就急忙把炮扔了,捂着耳朵跑到一边哇哇乱叫。叔叔笑着抓住我,不厌其烦的教我。
终于,我拿着炮,手哆嗦着举向打火机,又是没点着。“再来,沉着冷静。”我暗暗对自己说。在经过了几次失败后,我成功地点燃了第一只炮,心里高兴极了。又放了几个,我再也不怕了。回家后讲给妈妈听,妈妈夸我很勇敢,还给我讲了放炮习俗的由来:是为了赶走一个名字叫年的怪兽。
现在想起来,我还是很自豪,我战胜了自己的胆怯心理。其实,做任何事情有应该这样:不怕困难,战胜自己,就一定能成功!
