Halloween is an autumn holiday that Americans celebrate every year。 It means "holy evening," and it comes every October 31, the evening before All Saints Day。 However, it is not really a church holiday, it is a holiday for children mainly。

Every autumn, when the vegetables are ready to eat, children pick large orange pumpkins。 Then they cut faces in the pumpkins and put a burning candle inside。 It looks as if there were a person looking out of the pumpkin! These lights are called jack—o—lanterns, which means "Jack of the lantern"。

The children also put on strange masks and frightening costumes every Halloween。 Some children paint their faces to look like monsters。 Then they carry boxes or bags from house to house。 Every time they come to a new house, they say,"Trick or treat! Money or eat!" The grown—ups put treat—money or candy in their bags。

Not only children, but most grown—ups also love Halloween and Halloween parties because on this day,they can disguise themselves as personages or ghost as their imaginations will lead them。 This bring them the satisfaction of being young。

The Culture of China is home to one of the worlds oldest and most complex

civilizations. China boasts a history rich in over 5,000 years of artistic,

philosophical, political, and scientific advancement. Though regional

differences provide a sense of diversity, commonalities in language and religion

connect a culture distinguished by such significant contributions such as

Confucianism and Taoism. Confucianism was the official philosophy throughout

most of Imperial Chinas history and strongly influenced other countries in East

Asia. Mastery of Confucian texts provided the primary criterion for entry into

the imperial bureaucracy.

With the rise of Western economic and military power beginning in the

mid-19th century, Western systems of social and political organization gained

adherents in China. Some of these would-be reformers rejected Chinas cultural

legacy, while others sought to combine the strengths of Chinese and Western

cultures.

China is a unified nation consisting of many different ethnic groups.

Fifty-six different ethnic groups make up the great Chinese national family.

Because the Han people accounts for more than ninety percent of Chinas

population, the remaining fifty-five groups are generally referred to as "ethnic

minorities." Next to the majority Han, the Mongolian, Hui, Tibetan, and Uygur

peoples comprise the largest ethnic groups. Although Chinas ethnic minorities

do not account for a large portion of the population, they are distributed over

a vast area, residing in every corner of China.

Particularly since the implementation of Chinas opening and reform policy,

the central government has increased investment in minority areas and

accelerated their opening to the outside world. This has resulted in an upsurge

of economic development in these areas. Each of Chinas ethnic minority groups

possesses a distinctive culture. The Chinese government respects minority

customs, and works to preserve, study, and collate the cultural artifacts of

Chinas ethnic minority groups. The government vigorously supports the

development of minority culture and the training of minority cultural workers,

and fosters the development of traditional minority medicine.

The relation among Chinas ethnic groups can be described as "overall

integration, local concentration, mutual interaction." Concentrations of ethnic

minorities reside within predominantly Han areas, and the Han people also reside

in minority areas, indicating that there has been extensive exchanges among

Chinas ethnic groups since ancient times. With the development of the market

economy, interaction among ethnic groups has become even more active in the

areas of government, economics, culture, daily life, and marriage. Linked by

interdependence, mutual assistance, and joint development, their common goals

and interests creating a deep sense of solidarity, Chinas ethnic groups

resemble a great national family, together building Chinese civilization.

篇4:论中西文化差异作文1000字

全文共 1030 字

当传统国学文化与西方文化相遇,当圣诞节与春节“撞车”,随着时代的发展进步,人们越来越趋向于欣赏西方文化。如今,“崇洋媚外”已成为一种风尚;“抨击传统文化,赞赏西方文化“似乎是文学家教育家津津乐道的话题;越来越多的家长希望自己的孩子出国接受国外的教育……我不得不思索,难道中华五千年源远流长的传统文化真的比不上西方文化吗?

其实不然。中西方文化的起源不同,二者追求的信仰也不一样。我们的东方文化受到佛教、以孔子为首的儒家思想和老子的道教思想影响深远,主要追求精神的超脱,追求礼孝忠义,注重个人修养和人与自然的和谐相处。而西方文化起源于古希腊罗马文化,他们拥有平等、自由和开放的观念,追求个人权利以及对自然的探索和求证。因此,中西方文化存在明显的差异

在文化教育方面,中西方各领风骚。传统国学文化深受儒家影响,中国的教育也注重于培养学生的个人素质,注重基础教育和因材施教。虽说应试教育不利于学生的全面发展,但是我们不能全盘否定我国的教育方式。考试是对学生在某个阶段学习效果的检验。应试教育有助于培养学生的自我思考和独立自主能力。而在西方,无论是在学校还是在家庭都很注重培养一个人的动手和实践能力。曾经有一个二年级的中国孩子,随父母去美国读小学,它的教师告诉他父母说:“我可以告诉你,六年级以前,他们的数学不用学了!”

中西方文化教育的不同直接导致了人们性格修养不同。中国人热情好客,关心和询问别人的身体健康状况是一种有礼貌,有修养的表现。人们一般见面都喜欢相互寒暄:“你吃饭了吗?”“最近过得怎么样?”而西方人喜欢尊重他人隐私,所以才以谈论天气,生活来避免尴尬。中国人提倡默默无闻和无私奉献精神,以集体利益为重,个人利益为轻,崇尚助人为乐和不求回报。但是西方人的自我中心意识很强,他们个人荣誉感极强,把个人利益放在第一位,并且推崇个人奋斗,强调多劳多得。

传统国学文化历史悠久,源远流长。漫步在历史的长廊中,我们可以细细品味抒写美的爱情,反映现实生活的《诗经》。穿越过春秋战国时期的百家争鸣的文化盛宴,我们有唐诗宋词元曲明清小说……伟大的祖先留给我们的文化瑰宝如同满天繁星般璀璨,是每个民族都可望不可及的。传统国学文化是华夏子女的历史财富,是我国全人类的文化遗产,我们应当学会珍惜。

面对着中西方文化的差异,当外来文化“入侵”时,我们应当取之精华,采取谦虚,不卑不亢的态度。对于我们的传统文化,我们则需要总结提炼其精华,推崇提倡中华民族文化之瑰宝,才能培养更高素质的人才。

Based on historical documents, modern survey and statistics, as well as the result of predecessor studies, the trend and main process of forest dynamics are recognized. The forest area and forest coverage rates for each province of China from 1700 to 1949 are es- timated backward by every 50 years. Linking the result with modern National Forest Inventory data, the spatial-temporal dynamics of Chinese forest in recent 300 years (AD 1700–1998) is quantitatively analyzed. The study shows that in recent 300 years, the forest area in current territory of China has declined by 0.95×108 hm2 (or 9.2% of the coverage rate) in total, with a trend of decrease and recovery. Before the 1960s, there was a trend of accelerated de- scending. The forest area was reduced by 1.66×108 hm2 (or 17% of the coverage rate) in 260 years. While after the 1960s, there has been a rapid increase. The forest area increased by 0.7×108 hm2 (or 8% of the coverage rate) in 40 years. The study also shows that there is a significant spatial difference in the dynamics of forest. The amplitudes of increasing and de- creasing in western China are both smaller than the ones in eastern China. During the rapid declining period from 1700 to 1949, the most serious decrease appeared in the Northeast, the Southwest and the Southeast, where the coverage rate in most provinces dropped over 20%. In Heilongjiang Province, the coverage rate dropped by 50%. In Jilin Province, it dropped by 36%. In Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality, it dropped by 42%. In Yunnan Prov- ince, it dropped by 35%. During the recovery period 1949–1998, the western provinces, mu- nicipality and autonomous regions, including Ningxia, Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Si- chuan–Chongqing, Yunnan, Tibet, Xinjiang and Qinghai, etc, the increase rates are all below 5%, while the eastern provinces, municipality and autonomous regions (except Heilongjiang, Hubei, Jiangsu–Shanghai) have achieved an increase over 5%, among which the Guang- dong–Hainan, Guangxi, Anhui, Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Zhejiang, and Fu- jian have an increase over 10%.

篇13:关于中美文化的不同英语作文

中美文化差异

国人见面打招呼时,喜欢问“你吃了吗?”“你去哪呀?”

而西方人对此都感到很怪异。

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

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

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

greeting 打招呼

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

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

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

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

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

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

第一篇:美国文化

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

第二篇:美国文化

The main content of American culture is the emphasize on individuals value, the pursue of democracy and freedom, the promotion of deploitation(开拓, 经营) and competition and the need of realistic and practicality. Its core is individualism: self first, personal need first, pursue of individual benefit and enjoyment, emphasize on achieving individual value by self-strive and self-design. This type of intentionally build up of personality and pursue customized individualism has its pros and cons, it gives incentives to people and make them exert on their potential and wisdom and as a result accelerate the development of the entire race and nation; on the other hand it is difficult to keep good relationship among people if everyone is egocentric thus make the entire society lack of unity.

American citizens emphasize on achievements and respect heroes. They have great sense in their hearts to praise succeand heroes. Personal achievements are one of those with the highest value in Americans mind. Americans have very strong senses of success. Succeis the pursuit of most Americans, it is their attractive future and the incentives for moving forward. They believe that ones personal value is equivalent to his achievements in his career. Some high achievers in their career such as entrepreneurs, scientists, artists and all kinds of super starts became modern heroes. The proceand result of how they strived have become the frame of reference of social culture value and the real life text book for parents to educate their children.

American society has great movements within itself. These movements are shown in two aspects: movements amongst locations and movements inside the society. The United States are relatively more open and have more freedom. Developed transport and the tradition of adventure and sporty makes a lot of American migrate from countryside to cities, from downtown to uptown; and from north to the southern sunny land, from one city to another. Unlike European countries, the social classes in America is not so stable. Further more, with the advocation of public education, movements upwards along the social ladder have become possible. Many people living in the states, no matter whether they are Native American or immigrants from overseas, have the same dream of changing their social claand make their lifetime dream come true through their own efforts. This is what they often called "American dream".

翻译:

美国文化的主要内容是强调个人价值,追求民主和自由,促进开拓(开拓,经营)和竞争和现实的需要和实用性。其核心是个人主义:自我第一,个人需要首先,追求个人利益和享受,强调实现个人价值self-strive和自行设计。个性与追求这种类型的有意建立定制的个人主义有其优点和缺点,它给激励人们,让他们发挥他们的潜力和智慧,因此加快整个种族和民族的发展;另一方面很难如果每个人都以自我为中心的人保持良好的关系从而使整个社会缺乏团结。

美国公民强调成就和尊重英雄。他们有很大的感觉在心里称赞succeand英雄。个人成就是其中一个最高的价值在美国人心中。美国人有很强的成功的感觉。Succeis大多数美国人的追求,这是他们吸引力的未来,前进的动力。他们认为一个人的个人价值相当于他的成就在他的职业生涯。一些成功人士在他们的职业生涯如企业家、科学家、艺术家和各类超级开始成为现代英雄。的proceand结果如何努力已经成为社会文化价值的参照系和现实生活教科书,父母教育他们的孩子。

美国社会中很有运动本身。这些运动是体现在两个方面:运动中位置和运动在社会。美国相对的开放更多的自由。发达的交通和冒险好动的传统使许多美国人从乡村流到城市,又从市中心流向郊区;从北方流到南方阳光地带,从一个城市到另一个地方。美国社会阶级不像欧洲国家并不是那么稳定。此外,公共教育的普及,使沿着社会阶梯向上流动成为可能。许多人生活在美国,无论他们是印第安人还是移民海外,有相同的梦想改变他们一生社会claand使梦想成真通过他们自己的努力。这就是他们通常被称为“美国梦”。

第三篇:美国文化

American culture, in a sense, is an extension of European culture, because the language of the Americans, demographic composition and her spirit of the foundation are from Europe. On the other hand, American culture with Europe, because European immigrants in the North American continent to drive away after taking the Indians, in a barren wilderness land to create a stunning is the splendid civilization. Therefore, in the United States talk about cultural practices and social propriety, it is necessary to take account of the same culture of Europe and the United States, but also pay attention to both of the opposite sex. Cultural practices is a wide scope and complexity of the topic, people involved in social life and relations In all aspects.

Of tolerance.

The United States is a country of immigrants, the ancestors from around the world. People emigrated to the United States, not only in the location to move on, but also in their country and customs of the council to a new place of residence. As miscellaneous, people their differences very obvious because the differences are very common, people do not particularly pay attention to unity. In time, the cultural practices of the Americans formed a higher level of tolerance (tolerance), the different cultures and different appraisals on tolerance, an acceptable attitude. At this point, the U.S. society feasible than the custom of other countries in the world more broadly.

From a political perspective, this tolerance of performance in the pursuit of freedom and the right to freedom of maintenance. From the religious that it reflected in the harmonious coexistence of different faiths. From the viewpoint of life, and it appeared in different communities, different ethnic communities live in peace. In a nutshell, in the United States, each person can basically arbitrary choice of different ideas, beliefs, traditions and customs and way of life; people can also keep a considerable extent, their customs and instrument. For example, Jews can celebrate their religious festivals, and Christians are to their Christmas and Easter. For example, again, the United States by Chinese in Chinatown Chinese live and work; the same token, the Vietnamese immigrants in their "little Saigon" according to Vietnams way of doing business and engaged in various activities.

Americans of tolerance, in addition to the above United States is a country that factors other than immigration, and the frequent movement of the Americans. As everyone knows, the history of the United States in the development of an important part of her history of the development of the western region. At that time, the United States Blazers or hiking, horseback or car, from east to west, from north to south, wherever there are opportunities, there Jiuwang resettlement. The frequent migration and continuous replacement of the Habitat so that people will always be in the "mobile", and the occasional different facing the phenomenon of tolerance and more easily accepted. Moreover, the current migration also can help people expand the field of vision, known more widely know, the different practices with sympathy, understanding, and gradually formed diversity rather than uniformity of the openness of the concept.

As the Americans tolerant of stronger, so very few Americans to impose its will on other people, with China Confucius "by the others do not want to, not to impose on" the very Guxun like. For example, a husband may be a Republican, but he must not support the Democratic Party forced his wife to change political stance. Similarly, perhaps the mother is a Catholic, but she must not have forced her into a Muslim convert son to change religion. In their daily lives and habits of business in normal times, this spirit of tolerance is a common occurrence, commonplace.

翻译:

美国文化,从某种意义上说,是欧洲文化的延伸,因为美国人的语言、人口构成和她来自欧洲的精神基础。另一方面,美国文化与欧洲,因为欧洲移民在北美大陆印第安人赶走后,在一个贫瘠的荒野地创建一个惊人的是灿烂的文明。因此,在美国谈论文化习俗和社会规范,有必要考虑相同的欧洲和美国的文化,但也注意到这两个异性。文化习俗是一个广泛的范围和复杂性的话题,人们参与社会生活,在各方面的关系。

的宽容。

美国是一个移民国家,来自世界各地的祖先。人移民到美国,不仅在位置移动,而且在他们的国家和风俗理事会的新居住地。杂,人们分歧非常明显,因为差异是非常普遍的,人们并不特别关注团结。随着时间的推移,美国人的文化习俗形成了一个更高层次的公差(公差),宽容不同文化和不同的评估,一个可接受的态度。在这一点上,美国社会可行的比世界上其他国家的习俗。

从政治角度看,这种宽容的性能追求自由和维护自由的权利。从宗教,它体现在不同信仰的和谐共存。从生活的角度,它出现在不同的社区,不同的民族生活在和平。简而言之,在美国,每个人基本上可以任意选择不同的观念、信仰、传统、习俗和生活方式,人们也可以保持相当大的程度上,他们的习俗和乐器。例如,犹太人可以庆祝他们的宗教节日,而基督教徒,他们的圣诞节和复活节。例如,美国,中国在唐人街中国生活和工作,同样,越南移民在他们的“小西贡”按越南的方式经营和从事各种活动。

美国人的宽容,除了上面的美国是一个非移民因素的国家,和经常运动的美国人。众所周知,美国历史发展的一个重要组成部分的西部地区的发展的历史。当时,美国开拓者或徒步旅行、骑马或汽车,从东到西,从南到北,哪里有机遇,Jiuwang安置。频繁的迁移和不断更换栖息地,这样人们将永远是“移动”,以及偶尔的现象所面临的不同更容易宽容和接受。此外,经常迁移还能够帮助人们扩大视野,了解更广泛的知道,不同的实践同情、理解,并逐渐形成多样性而非均匀性开放的概念。

强大的美国人宽容,所以很少有美国人将自己的意志强加于他人,与中国孔子“别人不想,不要对“Guxun像。例如,丈夫可能是个共和党人,但他必须不支持民主党迫使他的妻子改变政治立场。同样,也许妈妈是天主教徒,但她决不能强迫她进入一个穆斯林把儿子改变宗教信仰。在日常生活和习惯的业务在正常情况下,这种宽容精神是一种常见的发生,司空见惯。

Recently watching American TV Dramas has become more and more popular with youth in our country. There are various kinds of reasons. Generally speaking, TV Dramas are suitable for the psychology of youth. The network technology will be developed as well at the same time. What’s more, it can make our spoken English well. Every coin has two sides, but it shows off a humanism, and spreads bad influences such as violence, etc.

I think the positive influences are more important than negative ones.

First of all, a number of American TV Dramas express duty, family, freedom, justice and love concept. It’s useful to develop youth’s recessive education. Only in this way will TV Dramas play a positive part and make up for shortcomings in political education. Next, it can broaden our eyes and knowledge and make us know what is different from home and abroad. With this method, we can know the western society. We’ll be affected by different culture ambience and ideology concept. Under the background of the whole world, knowing the cultures of western countries can promote each country’s communications well. In addition, In this process, TV Dramas play a role of bridge. Then, it will develop independent personality. America uphold particular concept and suggest their educational productions. Youth is the most energetic generation, encourages people show off personality and dares to break the outmoded conventions. It’s the prerequisite of innovation.

Finally, TV Dramas also help you face reality and surmount ideality. Nowadays, some youth always depend on others, such as their parents or friends. They also have idealism and is extremely conceited or inferiority. They often don’t find themselves in society, due to the influences of life education environment.

By this we can make a conclusion. No matter how hard it will be, we should always be free and try our best to conquer the enemy, just like the actors in the film. Another thing we have to remember is the great development of China. TV Dramas’ productions suggest the culture and psychological state of the country from some kinds of degree. It can promote our country’s economic development. Watching TV Dramas is a way to follow fashion. Therefore, everyone should work hard to make our country stronger and stronger. Through American TV Dramas, we should strengthen our duty and proud of our country. Let’s work together!

最近看美国电视剧已经在我国青年中越来越受欢迎。有各种各样的原因。一般来说,电视剧合适青少年的心理。同时,网络技术将被发展起来。更重要的是,它可以使我们的英语口语变好。每个硬币都有两面,但它显示了一个人文主义,和传播的不良影响如暴力,等。

我认为积极的影响比消极的影响更重要。

首先,美国一些电视剧表达的责任,家庭,自由,正义和爱的概念。培养青年的隐性教育是有用的。只有这样,电视剧中扮演一个积极的角色,弥补政治教育的不足。其次,它能开阔我们的视野和知识使我们知道,国内外不同的是什么。用这种方法,我们可以了解西方社会。我们会受到不同的文化氛围和意识形态概念。在全世界的背景下,了解西方国家的文化可以促进各个国家的通讯。此外,在这一过程中,电视剧起到了桥梁作用。然后,它会培养独立人格。美国坚持特定的概念,建议他们的教育成果。青春是最充满活力的一代,鼓励人们展示个性,敢于打破陈规。这是创新的前提。

最后,电视剧也帮助你面对现实和超越的理想。如今,一些青少年总是依赖别人,如父母或朋友。他们也有理想主义和极其自负或自卑感。他们经常不能在社会中找到自己,因为生活教育环境的影响。

因此我们可以得出结论。不管有多难,我们都应该是自由的,尽我们最大的努力去征服敌人,就像电影中的演员。另一件我们需要记住的是,中国经济的巨大发展。电视剧作品从某种程度上表明了这个国家的文化和心理状态。它可以促进我国经济的发展。看电视剧是一路追随时尚。因此,每个人都应该努力使我们的国家越来越强大。通过美国的电视剧,我们应该加强我们的义务,让我们一起工作让我们的国家感到自豪。!

根据霍夫斯泰德对文化所下的定义,文化是在同一个环境中的人们所具有的“共同的心理程序”,是由相同的教育背景和生活经历所决定的。因此,各个不同的民族或地域之前会存在文化差异,因为其中的人会受到教育、社会和工作经验的影响。以东西方的文化差异为例,中国是一个崇尚大权力距离的国家,而美国是权力距离相对较小的国家。因此,地位象征对中国人来说尤为重要,认为上级所拥有的特权是理所当然的;而美国人则认为人与人之间是平等的。此外,西方人相对比较个人主义而东方人则更看重集体主义。在个人主义的社会中,人们重视自身的价值和需要,依靠个人的努力来为自己谋取利益,而在集体主义国家,人们把自己融入到一个或几个集体中,在这些集体中找到属于自己的位置,人们在精神上依赖于集体,因此,和谐在这些国家中显得尤为重要。在东西方文化中,还存在以下三个主要的文化差异,即不确定性规避、男性度与女性度以及长期取向与短期取向。

【参考译文】

农历五月初五为端午节,又称端阳节、午日节、五月节、艾节、端五、重午、午日、夏节。虽然名称不同,但各地人民过节的习俗是相同的。端午节是我国二千多年的旧习俗,每到这一天,家家户户都悬钟馗像,挂艾叶菖蒲,赛龙舟,吃粽子,饮雄黄酒,游百病,佩香囊,备牲醴

以后,在每年的五月初五,就有了龙舟竞渡、吃粽子、喝雄黄酒的风俗;以此来纪念爱国诗人屈原

其中,最流行的是纪念屈原说。据说,公元前278年,秦军攻破楚国京都。屈原眼看自己的国家被侵略,含恨抱石头投汨罗江而死,屈原死后,楚国百姓哀痛异常,每年这一天纷纷涌到江边去凭吊屈原,所以在每年五月初五就有了赛龙舟、吃粽子、喝雄黄酒、悬艾草的风俗。其中赛龙舟最有特色,那争先恐后的激烈场面就像屈原强烈的爱国精神一样,几千年来一直激励着我们。

因为这深厚的文化底蕴,所以端午节现在已经成为了我们中华民族主要的传统节日之一。今天她仍然有着强大的生命力,在我们德清,每到这一天,家家户户的门上,都会挂上菖蒲、艾草,据说可以辟邪消灾。各家各户自然也少不了包粽子,那透着浓浓竹叶清香的粽子,是我们孩子们的最爱,枣子棕、火腿棕、赤豆棕……一个个引人垂涎三尺呢!有的地方,人们还会佩带着香袋,姑娘们以这五彩缤纷的香袋做饰物,既香味袅袅,又让自己变得更美丽动人,走在大街上自然引来了不少小伙们留连的目光去审视我们中华文化的博大精深,让我们更有理由为中华文化而自豪!
