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。

你去过长城吗?你领略过长城的雄伟吗?我有幸去过长城，因为它是令人骄傲的世界文化遗产，是凝结着我们，祖先的汗水和智慧的建筑。

长城，它像一条巨大的龙一样盘踞在我们中国的土地上;长城，它像一只巨鹰一样，展露着它雄伟的气势;长城，它像一头雄狮一样，屹立在中国几千年内不倒。可见长城时，我心中油然而生了一种说不清道不明的情感，像是在自豪的什么。没错，肯定是自豪，自豪着我们的长城。

远远看去，长城盘踞在青山之上，早晨的白雾让长城有了一丝神秘的感觉，让人忍不住想去揭开它神秘的面纱。我的步伐缓慢了下来，像是不忍心去打扰那安逸的场面。近了又近了，我们渐渐的靠近了长城的脚下，仰望长城，似乎离它的历史又迈出了一大步。

我们行驶于长城之上，从瞭望口向烽火台望去。像是看见了白日里居住在那个独体建筑的士兵正在警觉的巡逻;像是看见了夜晚中毒提建筑不断的漂浮着的烽烟;像是看见了士兵们坚定的脸和挺拔的身体……烽火台又称狼烟台秉夜台，因为敌人多在夜晚攻打长城秉夜台这个名字早已被世人遗忘，可在长城外的孤坟，像是在诉说这个不为人知的秘密。因为长城外的孤坟民间一直流传着这样一个传说：一位倾国倾城的女子，速来受当时男子的欢迎，她刚及笄上门者便可排成一条长龙，她眼光极高，从中没有一个合适的人选。却对一个普通人心中

暗许，几个月后变成婚了，好景不长，战国六年，她丈夫被强行带走，孟姜女生怕丈夫吃不好，便日日去给丈夫送饭。今日后，她丈夫被崩塌的长墙压死了，孟姜女日日来长城边上哭泣，为丈夫守灵。

听了这个故事，我内心感慨不断，而此时阴云密布，不正像故事中孟姜女日日哭泣吗?我一步步走下长城，眼睛却从未离开那烽火台……

如果你失去了今天，那你并不失败，因为明天还会再来；如果你失去了金钱，那你也不失败，因为人生的价值并不在于钱袋；如果你失去了礼仪，你才是彻彻底底地失败，因为人生的价值并不在于钱袋；如果你失去了礼仪，你才是彻彻底底的失败，因为你失去了做人的真谛！

说到礼仪，有一件事情至今还深深地印在我的脑海里。那是一位老人家家，她那种精神值得我们学习 ! 那是一天阳光明媚的下午。我在大姨家的后院里玩耍，突然，一只美丽的黄蝴蝶把我深深地吸引住了，我跟着它走到了大姨家的门口。这时，我看见一位老人家家正在路边扫着垃圾，一位阿姨撞了一下老人家家，却连声 对不起 都没有说，还若无其事地走了过去。反到是那位老人家家说了声“对不起，是我不小心，请你原谅”。那位阿姨这才满意地哼着歌离去。我忍住心中的怒火问老人家家：明明是她先撞了您，为什么您说对不起呢？

老人家平静而又温和地说： “ 谁说 对不起 还不是一样的吗？ ” 我小声嘟哝着：当然不一样啦，明明是她撞的您，应该是她说 对不起 才对，老人家家看出了我的心思说： “ 不要紧的，大不了她跟我说 对不起 也 不迟呀！”

我从心里对自己说：这位老人家家真是位讲礼仪的好人啊，我们要向她学习。

这个星期，我收集了许多中国传统的资料：有传统文化、传统民间艺术、传统节日等。我最喜欢传统节日了，因为节日是亲人团聚的时候。 This week, I collected many traditional Chinese information: there are traditional culture, traditional folk art, traditional festivals, etc.I like traditional festivals the most, because the festival is the time for relatives.

传统节日有：春节、元宵节、重阳节······春节是农历正月初一，俗称“过年”。每年过年，每家每户都会吃团年饭，街上挂满了红红的灯笼，彩旗飘飘。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。人们买了许多礼花和鞭炮，到了晚上，就会拿出礼花放。到了晚上8点春节连欢晚会开始了，人们坐在电视前收看。春节刚过，迎来的就是中国的传统节日元宵节，“元宵节”在每年农历的正月十五日，这一天人们会吃元宵，猜灯谜，还会到公园里观灯。重阳节，是农历9月9日，是中国的一个古老的传统佳节。重阳节，又称“老人节”

“重九节”。这一天，人们赏菊花，佩带茱萸，携酒登山。在这些传统节日中我最喜欢春节。每到春节家家户户喜贴窗联，穿新衣吃饺子，然后爷爷奶奶还要给我发小红包，我家还会把我写的春联贴在门外。记得有一次过年的时候爸爸买来了烟花，在我家楼下放了起来。只听“呯呯”几声，一束束烟花飞上天真美呀!各种烟花在天空中绽放，有的像一条巨龙腾空而起，在空中摇头摆尾，有的像一枚枚子弹直冲天空，还有的像一朵没有开放的花苞，在天空中欣然怒放。春节还有一个美丽的传说，下面我就给你们说说吧!

传说中，古时候有一种叫“年”的怪兽，它长着锋利的牙，尖尖的角，凶猛无比。“年”长年深居海底，每到新年的晚上，怪兽就会爬上岸，去袭击山角下的一个小村庄。村里人知道会来怪兽，把门锁的紧紧，可是不管怎样，“年”就会进来，偷吃村民的东西，伤害人畜，大家都害怕极了。

这一年的除夕，人们正准备避难。这时，一位仙翁走过来，他告诉村民“年”怕红色和响声，人们听了连忙准备了红对联贴在门上。晚上，“年”又来了，它一见红色，听到锣鼓声阵阵，吓得赶紧逃跑了。从此以后每逢过新年家家户户都贴春联、贴年画、放鞭炮，这个习俗一直延续至今，还越传越广，逐渐成了中华民族最隆重的传统节日。

中国的传统文化光辉灿烂，的我们要认真学习，大力弘扬中国的传统文化。

自从学了课文《秦兵马俑》以后，我就特别想和兵马俑有一次“亲密接触”。五一，爸爸妈妈带我去了西安，我的愿望终于实现了。

那天下午下雨了，但这影响不了我的心情，因为我马上就要到秦兵马俑博物院了。

进了检票口的大门，首先映入我眼帘的就是远处若隐若现的骊山和庞大的博物院。听导游说，秦兵马俑的面积很大，现在已经挖出的三个俑坑，总面积大约有20000平方米。里面地兵马俑也非常多，有八千多个。

我和爸爸妈妈先进入了一号俑坑。在这三个俑坑中，一号俑坑最大，它东西长230米，南北宽62米，总面积大约有14260平方米。它这里面地兵马俑也最多，有6000多个。一号坑的上面已经有了一个非常巨大的拱形大厅，用来给里面的兵马俑遮风挡雨。我们站在坑边上的围栏处往下望，坑里的兵马俑一行行，一列列，非常整齐。

一号坑还有些地方没有挖掘出来，上面被土层遮盖着，当时我真想跳进去当一回考古学家，和兵马俑来一个更紧密的接触。

从一号坑出来，我们又去了三号坑和二号坑，都非常壮观。在这三个坑里，我见到了将军俑、弓弩俑、跻射俑、跪射俑……这么多类型里面，我最难忘地就是敢死队里的步兵俑和跪射俑。步兵俑打仗时冲在最前面，不穿铠甲，身着便装，轻装上阵，非常勇敢。跪射俑的手里的武器是弓箭，他的样子从侧面看很像陕西省的地图，真是神奇。

我们这次游览还见到了兵马俑的发现人杨新满老人，他都已经78岁了，他还在我买的一本兵马俑书上签了名呢!

秦兵马俑举世无双，非常壮观，我都还没有看够呢，天就快黑了。如果下次有机会，我还想来看兵马俑。

People who go to a formal Western dinner party for the first time may be surprised by table manners in Western culture.Knowing them will help you make a good impression.Having good table manners means knowing,for example,how to use knives and forks,when to drink a toast and how to behave at the table.Beside your napkin you will find a small bread roll and three glasses—one for white wine,one for the red wine,and one for water.There are two pairs of knives and forks on the table,forks on the left and knives in the right of the plate.When you see two spoons,the big one id for the suop and the samll one for the dessert.The knife and fork that are closest to your plate are a litte bit bigger than the ones beside them.When you sit down at the table, you can take your napkin, unfold it and put it on your lap.In Chinese you sometime get a hot,damp cloth to clean your face and face and hands,whinch,however,is nat the custom in Western countries.

Dinner start with a small dish, which is often called a starter.Sime people pray before they start eating , and other people may keep silent for a moment. Then you can say"Enjoy your meal"to each other and everybody start eating.For the starter,which you eat with the smaller pair,you keep the knife in your right hand and the fork in your left.After the starter you will get a bowl of soup—but only one boel of soup and never ask for a seconf serving.

The next dish is the main course.Many Westerners think the chicken breast with its tender white flesh is the best part of the bird. Some people can use their fingers when they eating chicken or other birds,but never touch beef or other meat in bones.It is polite to finish eating everthing on your plate,so dont take more food than you need.

At table ,you should try to speak quietly and smile a lot,but do not laugh all the time.

Most Westerners like soft drink if they will drive home.Many of them drink white or red wine with the food.When drinking to someones health,you raise your glasses,but the glasses should not touch. The custom of toasting in some parts of China is to finish the drink at once,but Westerners usually take only a sip.For drinking during a dinner,the best advic is never to drink too much.

Table manners change over time.They follow the fashion of the day .Beside,table manners are only important at formal dinner parties.If youre not sure what to do ,you can always follow your hosts.Although good manners always make you look good,you do not need to worry about all these rules while having dinner with your friends or family

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.

Different social attitudes: The british are, in some ways, less conservative than Americans - the drinking age is 18, not 21, homosexual civil unions are legal, and abortion hasnt been a serious political issue in years. Mixing religion and politics is extremely rare in the UK. On the other hand, there are stricter controls on some things - its much harder to get a driving licence, and the age requirement is higher than in most states, there are speed cameras everwhere, CCTV cameras in many public places (although they may or may not be working), and carrying weapons or other objects for "self defence" is illegal (in particular, note that pepper spray is illegal).

Getting into a debate about the right to bear arms will be very time consuming, and may also lead people to think that youre a gun-nut before theyve got to know you properly.

Smoking in enclosed public places is illegal - that includes pubs, the underground, train stations... more or less any non-residential building actually... (similar to New York, so not so much of a cultural difference there).

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.

传统文化与现代科技相辅相成，各自都有其不可替代的作用与价值，一个都不可少。

传统文化有其独特的优美。当砚台上的墨被研开，墨香顺着空气优雅地钻入鼻腔，我不得不被其儒雅的气息所沉醉;当沾上墨水的毛笔在纸上笔走龙蛇时，一个个汉字从笔下跳跃而出，显现在纸上，我不得不被优雅的字体所震撼;当捏糖人用那双灵巧的双手将一块块麦芽糖捏成一个个活灵活现的小动物时，我不得不被捏糖的趣味所吸引;当雕刻大师手执一把雕刻刀在石头上东刻西磨，一个逼真的物体慢慢出现在眼前，我不得不被其精湛的手艺所折服……传统文化源远流长，在纸上终究是诉说不完的，它就像一杯老舅芳香四溢，回味无穷。

诚然，传统文化之美令人向往，但现代科技也有其不可或缺的价值。君不见在极具现代科技的机床上一瓶瓶墨水岁流水线上应运而生，其生产速度令人瞠目结舌;君不见手机、网络为我们传达信息提供方便的服务，其神奇的技术令人好奇不已;君不见原来只能通过手工制造的食品现如今都可以在机器上实现量产，解放了劳作的双手;君不见3D打印技术在几分钟内就可以打造了一个精致又实用的物件……如今发达的科技给我们生活带来了极大的便利。

传统文化有传统文化的优点，现代科技有现代科技的优点。那两者相比较孰优孰劣呢?在我看来，两者都有其不可或缺的优势，两者相互交融才能最大化地发挥各自的优点，为我们人类文明增光添彩。

墨水只靠手工研制，其生产速率就会怠慢下来，若只依靠机器生产，就体现不出墨香独特的气息。所以两者都需要保留下来，既保留传统工艺，又要依靠现代科技升华现代科技。

就拿书写来说，有些同学书写的字迹非常潦草，原因很可能是因为手机用久了;平时发消息只在手机上发，忽略了书写的重要性。出现这种情况，就得提醒这些同学多注意书写了。这绝不是在否认现代科技，只是在提醒我们要在学好传统文化的前提下才可以向现代科技看齐。当我们书写的字迹清楚，再在业余时间用手机打发一下时间，这未尝不可。而且这样也方便我们的生活，一个短信或一通电话就可以与千里之外的朋友、家人联系上，这样的便利不是很实用吗。

传统文化就像一只小船，而现代科技就像一双木桨。只拥有一只小船，没有木桨，小船将无法向前方航行;只拥有一双木桨，没有小船，那就与拥有一双木棍一样没有太大的作用。只有拥有船和桨，并且二者相互合作才能并肩向前迈进。

让我们以传统文化为船，现代科技为桨，向前出发!

今年元宵节我和妈妈看舞龙，我看见那望不到尾的布龙，就像一条无尾龙。好不容易看完布龙，我想回家了，但是又“飞”来了荷花龙。荷花龙把我的脚给勾住了，不让我走，我只好有看着他们舞龙。

荷花龙犹如一条五彩缤纷的绳子，这条“绳子”是由许多人拿着假荷花构成的，。之后来了一条板凳龙。这条板凳龙是很多人举着板凳从我们眼前“飞”过，此时我想起了一个故事：很久以前有一个勤劳善良的夫妇，男的叫百叶，女的叫荷花，他们相敬相爱，他们住在荷花村。这年荷花怀孕了，过了是十来月，孩子却没生下来，又过了一年，还是没有生下来，直到九百九十九天，才生了一个男骇。百叶见孩子生得端正健壮，他好喜爱，仔细一瞧，倒是错愕不已：孩子的胸部和脊背上长着细细的龙鳞，金光闪闪，有九百九十九片。旁边的人看见了，就喊着：“你生了个龙种。”过了很长时刻小龙的身体渐渐变大，化作了数十丈的长龙，飞上天空。自此以后，每逢干旱，小龙就来散云播雨。百姓为了它，就采摘了七七四十九朵荷花，用了九百九十九片花瓣，制作成一条花龙。每年春节，老百姓就要敲锣打鼓来舞龙。舞龙的创造和流传是全中华民族光辉历史的一部分，为我们的民族和人民所喜爱。

我觉得中国的传统文化十分搞笑，你也能够查一查，你会发现中国传统文化有多么丰富多彩。

生活中有许多传统文化，比如：端午节赛龙舟，过年吃饺子……其中，我最感兴趣的是过年倒贴福字的来历。

从前，有一个大官，他命令大家在过年的时候贴福字。在一次过年，那位大官想了解了解百姓过得怎么样。大官走在大街上，他发现了一位人家把福字倒着贴，于是，那位大官叫士兵把他们全家抓进了府里。大官审问其中一人，道：“你怎么把福字倒贴了？”那人颤抖着说：“大人，把福字倒贴，读起来就是福到，所以小人就自作主张将福字倒贴了……”大人听了，感觉很有道理，不但没有罚他们一家，还奖励了他们。

我们生活中的传统文化真是奇妙啊！

我喜欢刺绣，你没听错，就是中国传统文化——刺绣。无聊的时候我总是用刺绣来打发时间，但是我想并不是所有人都跟我一样喜欢刺绣的。

说到刺绣，你又了解多少关于刺的事情呢?还是让我来告诉你吧——刺绣是中国优秀的民族传统之一，刺绣与养蚕，剿丝是分不开的，所以刺绣又叫做丝绣。

你知道上海的什么刺绣最有名吗?那当然是“露香园顾绣”了。顾氏家族世袭相传，善于刺绣的声誉名扬大江南北。

现在，中国的刺绣工艺几乎遍布全国——苏州的苏绣，湖南的湘绣，四川的镯绣，广东的粤绣。各具特色，被誉为中国的四大名绣。

发展到今天的刺绣艺术品，工艺精细复杂。例如：双面绣(猫)，是苏绣的代表作品之一。艺人们把一根头发粗细的绣发线分成二分之一，四分之一，以至十二分之一，四十八分之一的细线绣，并将十万多个线头藏的无影无踪。无论是从正面还是反面都可以看倒小猫调皮活泼的神态。绣猫最难的是一对猫眼睛，艺人们要用二十多种丝线才能把猫眼睛绣的炯炯有神，栩栩如生。

你知道现在拍卖会上的刺绣能占怎样的地位吗?你一定不会想到。在中国古代的刺绣价格平平，直到1993年在香港，新加坡等地才开始有人专门收集。据市场分析家推论：要使刺绣成为市场上的“新宠儿”还需要收藏家十年的努力。可是在近两年的拍卖会上刺绣拍品价格却非常高。

通过我的介绍，你是不是也喜欢上刺绣了呢?跟我一起拿起针绣看看吧，一起体验一下中国的传统文化究竟技艺如何高超。

在四年级的语文书中我看到过一篇关于兵马俑的课文，它向我们介绍了兵马俑的来历和许多知识。那时，我真想去看看兵马俑。这个假期，我的愿望终于实现了。

放假的第二天，妈妈带着我来到西安，第一站我们就参观了秦始皇兵马俑博物馆。

秦始皇兵马俑十分壮观，一个个活灵活现的佣真是与书本上写的略有差异。他们一个个栩栩如生，他们有的身披铠甲，有的牵牛牵马，有的趾高气扬，有的鞠躬尽瘁;他们神态自若，表情和动作都不一样，而且，有的兵马俑是上了色的，非常漂亮，而有的为了保存古迹，所以没有上色，仍然是一片土色，但有古代的颜色，有古代的味道，仍然漂亮;憨态可掬的面貌表情，严肃，冷清，热情，这些表情看似平凡，可在兵马俑身上，他们仿佛有了生命，仿佛有了人的喜怒无常，悲欢离合的表情，非常神奇;兵马俑也有许多种类，有将军俑，跪射俑，立射俑，青瓷俑等等。一个个逼真的兵马俑，让我想到了秦朝战争时激烈的场面，也让我更加佩服古代劳动人民的智慧和才能。

在博物馆中最惹人喜爱的要算是立车与多功能伞了。立车也叫马车，它是由四匹马拉的车，为什么叫立车呢?因为驾车人地位低，而且车上没有小房子，只有用高高的木棒做成的小伞。

多功能伞又是怎样的呢?一可以在休息时不需要拿只要放在地上就行了。二可以很好地遮风挡雨。三长时间打伞时可以把锁打开，把下面助平衡的托拿下来以减轻持伞重量。四如果遇到了危险只要转开伞柄，里面就会出现锋利的长矛。而且打开的伞面还可以变成盾牌，与敌军战斗。

走出兵马俑博物馆，虽然有点儿累了，但我还是很开心，因为我终于来到了世界最大的地下军事博物馆，看到了世界第八大奇迹——兵马俑。

“过年了！过年了！”我高高兴兴地跑出了家门。

今天是除夕，爸爸，妈妈，我在家门口玩。刚走出大门，就看见门的两旁贴春联，上面写着：冬雪欲白千里草，春晖又红万朵花。上面的字又黑又大，外面有一圈金色的外圈上下两面都有好看的花纹。

“爸爸，妈妈，我们一起去看邻居家的对联吧！”我建议道。爸爸，妈妈点了点头，拉着我的手一起去看邻居家的对联。我们一路上看着，对联各种各样，语句各不相同，有的是：“春回大地千峰秀，日暖神州万木荣，”有的是：“旭日融和开柳眼，春风摇曳送莺喉，”还有的是：“岁自更新春不老，花多增艳水长流”......我看的眼都花了，不管哪一种都表达了人们的美好心愿。

我看着看着，手开始痒痒的，不由自主地跑到爸爸妈妈前面，做了一个鬼脸说：“妈妈，爸爸我们把家里剩下的大门都贴春联吧！”“好的，不过你不要乱贴。”

“保证。”我和爸爸，妈妈回到家里一起去贴对联。我精选了一对春联，站在一个凳子上，把双手举得老高，脚踮得不能再高的时候，对联才找好了位置。

“爸爸，快一点，我快坚持不住了。”我在门口外面高声喊道。我举着对联在外面盼星星盼月亮，终于，爸爸拿着胶水才出现在我面前，我和爸爸一起奋力地把春联贴了上去。

贴完了春联，妈妈就神秘兮兮地问我：“贝贝，春联有哪些历史呢？”我摸了摸脑袋，想了很久说：“您来告诉我吧！”

妈妈笑咪咪地说：“春联起源于桃符，周代悬挂在大门两旁的长方形桃木板，正月一日，造桃符著户，名仙木，百鬼所畏。”所以,清代《燕京时岁记》上说：“春联者，即桃符也。”五代时，四蜀的宫廷里，有人在桃符上提写联语。“新年纳余庆，嘉节号长春。”这便是我国的第一幅春联直到宋代，桃符由桃木板改为纸张，叫“春贴纸”。明代，桃符才改称“春联”。联意贴切，幽默。经明太祖这一提倡，此后便沿习成为习俗，一直流传至今。

原来，一对普通的春联，也有自己宝贵的故事。我真是开了眼界。

作为一个对传统文化不甚了解的人，来谈传统文化，总有一点班门弄斧的感觉。但是，我认为作为一个普普通通的中国人，又是最应该平心静气的坐下来，好好谈一谈自己对传统文化的认识的。尽管传统文化有不容回避的缺陷，有让人诟病的糟粕，它的封建专制思想、纲常名教和等级尊卑观念，还有它的保守拘泥、僵化固执、不擅开拓在近代历史上让中华民族饱受苦难，然而，我们不得不承认，它对我们生命的点点滴滴影响的太多太多，我们的思维方式里有它，我们的行为准则里有它，甚至我们的衣食住行里都充满了它。中华传统文化已经深深地扎根于神州这块神奇的土地，换句话讲，它是中国人的身份证。

我喜欢读历史书，具体地说是中国历史，我对传统文化的了解大部分也来自于此。说实话，在对传统文化有限的了解当中，我被深深地折服了，甚至我最初的民族自豪感正是来自于此。

五千年的文明，我看到过那个真正为了社会底层人民而默默奋斗过的墨翟，我仿佛看到了他在黑夜里急行，为了宋国人民的安危而废寝忘食，它的“兼爱”思想光芒万丈，在我看来，这是诸子百家里最闪耀的明珠；我看到了那个遍行中国的名医，尝遍这片土地的所有植物，编著了不朽的《本草纲目》，这是古代中国为全人类留下的福祉；我看到了曹雪芹在大富大贵之后，处于人生的辛酸中完成了那部堪称社会百科全书的巨著《红楼梦》，当然，不能忘掉，在此之前，有一位叫做王世贞的大才子，创作了同样一部奇书《金瓶梅》……

悠久的历史创造了璀璨的文明，而伟大的文明必将催生创造传奇的不朽。在中国古代，有“三不朽”一说，“立德、立功、立言”是为不朽。而做到这一切的仅有两个半，其中之一便是王守仁。每一次提到他的名字时，我都是怀着崇敬的心情的，因为他不世出之文韬武略，因为他照耀后世的心学，更重要的是因为他的那份我最为欣赏的睿智——知行合一，而最最重要的是，这个“知行合一”深深地影响了我，也必将指导我的余生。

只有亲身经历了太多太多，才能体会到“知行合一”是如何天才的让一个迷茫的、顽强的、坚韧的、追求正义的理想主义者来实现自己。我就是这样一个受益者，一个紧紧抱着完美主义前行，忍受着被别人嘲笑，却依然孤独前行的人。在最为困难、最为艰辛的时候，正是“知行合一”让我重新找到了继续前行的信心和动力。有了好的想法，也要有好的方法去实现这个想法，这便是“知行合一”的精髓，不得不承认，伟大的思想总是最朴实无华的。

对王守仁的认识过程让我对传统文化有了新的思考。之前我从没有想到我的处事方式、我的思维方式和价值观念，竟然能和产生时间与我相差近几百年的古代文化有了如此完美的契合点，我读懂“知行合一”的那一刻，我和先生的心灵是相通的。谁又能体会到一个山穷水尽、走投无路的失落者在被自己曾无视的传统文化中找到走出困境的方法时，是多么的欣喜，真是手舞足蹈的快乐啊。我认识到，传统文化并不是有些人认为的死板落后的文学、书法、戏曲、宗教……而是这些文化表现形式背后所蕴藏的深厚的、丰富的、睿智的思想、精神和价值观。他们是活生生的，有灵性的，有生命力的，应该令我们好好珍惜的。无论你对它抱何种看法，你的生命都被它潜移默化的影响着，它早已沁入了你骨子里流淌的血液，无论你是否愿意，你都自觉或不自觉的被它影响着。当你人生有了足够的积淀，再来审视传统文化与自己的联系时，你会重新认识到它最为光辉的一面，为你的存在找到最合理的理论依据，并为身处其中而自豪而欣慰。

无论如何，中华民族的根就是我们自己的传统文化，在这个体系中，我们做人做事的最高准则都与传统文化有着完美的契合，这就是属于我们这个民族自己的普世价值。美国有美国自己的普世价值，这与他们的文化息息相关；日本有日本的普世价值，这与他们的传统文化也有着不小的联系。不同地域、不同背景的民族只有在自己优秀文化的指导下发展，才是有生命力的。就像是马克思主义到了中国，在中国的基本国情下，就成了毛泽东思想和中国特色社会主义理论体系，这就是外来优秀文明根植于自身优秀文化而迸发出巨大能量的典范。尽管有些人总在诟病共产党，但我要说，毛泽东思想和中国特色社会主义理论体系对中华民族的历史功绩是任何人都不能磨灭的！

我对传统文化的态度一直都是积极的，不是因为我没有看到它的负面，是因为我觉得花心思用语言把自己对传统文化负面的思考组织成批判性的文字是一件很没有意义的事情。要明白，我们有手有脚、有头脑，我想我们这些有思想的人谁也不愿意看到传统文化负面的因素对我们造成不好的影响，再优秀的文化也是人创造的，我们也是未来传统文化的创造者！既然这样，只要我们怀着“取其精华，去其糟粕”的初衷，批判的继承传统文化，发扬优秀的传统文化，并且怀着对后来人负责的态度，用博大的胸怀接受外来的优秀的文化，并把其发展成为自己的文化，那么，传统文化的生命力必定会更加顽强，民族的前途也会因此更加坦荡。

[高中作文：中国传统文化

我理解她，她是我的朋友。

当我凝望着她那张如沐春风的脸，轻轻唤着她的名字——汉字时，她轻启朱唇，也轻轻应着我。我走上前去，自然地挽起她的手臂，与她漫步在阳光下，比肩而谈。她伴我走过了五彩的童年，也将伴我走向多彩的未来。她“笑”时，舒展着眉头，嘴角上扬，眼里溢满甜蜜，温暖一方净土；她“哭”时，眼睛似闭非闭，晶莹的泪水溢满了眼眶，湿润一片芳心；她“气”时，眉头紧锁，眼里似乎冒着怒火，嘟哝着嘴，煞是可爱。

我迷念她，她是我的四季。

她是春，“闲静时娇花照水，行动处弱柳扶风”，瞥见她笑颜如花，宛若惊鸿；她是夏，有那“朝飞暮卷，云霞翠轩，雨丝风片，烟波画船”的曼妙悠然；她是秋，“两弯似蹙非蹙笼烟眉，一双似喜非喜含情目”，恰似那含情脉脉的潇湘妃子；她是冬，“大风吹雪盈空际”形容的正是她潇洒无拘的性情。

我钟情她，她是我的恋人。

她充满了宇宙间最富于变化，也最为奇妙的感情，我真心待她，她就变得真诚温柔，我若狠心负她，她就变得目光灼灼。她是最贴近我内心的人，我也毫不隐晦地向她倾诉我的喜忧，我的酸甜，我的苦辣，偶然兴致起了，还会满腔热血、信誓旦旦地向她表达我的爱意。若她离我而去，那我眼中的山水将不再壮美，阳光不再明媚，鲜花不再芬芳，我写给她的信也将变为空白，因为我将没有言语去赞美自然，笔尖触及白纸，脑子里也蹦不出一个字。只有当我拥抱她时，可以真切嗅到她的味道时，我才能恢复往昔的光彩。

我想，她就是一个难以捉摸的人，或温润如水，或坚硬如冰，或热情如火……她凝练的艺术的美，或行或草，或隶或楷，她具有迷人的文字魅力，她代表了中华的兴衰。

亲爱的朋友们，当你们深情地吐露出她的名字时，心中是否有挥之不去的情愫，又是否会想起我们伟大的祖国呢？我想，汉字的美，值得让每一个人为之热爱与赞美！

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。
