在我很小很小的时候，因为经常生病，常去看医生。每一次看过医生我的病就好了，我觉得医生就像魔法师，很厉害、很神奇，我就梦想我长大后也能当一名医生。

没有上学前我喜欢和爷爷玩医生和病人的游戏。我和爷爷是这样玩的，假装爷爷生病了，到我这儿来看病，我拿了一个玩具听诊器帮爷爷听听这儿，听听那儿，虽然我根本就不知道应该听什么位置，但我非常认真地听着，接着我找张纸当作病历，胡乱地在那张纸上画画，认真地说一句：“这位病人，您得了流行感冒，需要打针。”然后我又拿出玩具针和棉花棒，用一碗水当作酒精来消毒，我一本正经地帮爷爷消毒、打针，并开了一些药，最后叮嘱他：“这位病人，一定要按时吃药，多喝开水，这样您的病就很快会好了。”

渐渐地我长大了，我知道了爷爷、奶奶原来早就得了糖尿病、高血压，我的外婆身体也不好，有眩晕症经常头昏，有一次外婆还摔了一跤把手都摔伤了，他们都是我最亲的亲人，我不想他们生病，我希望他们健康，于是我更加坚定长大后要当一个大医生，因为医生能让生病的人康复，让人们远离痛苦。

这就是我一直以来的梦想。

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".

民间流传着这样一句话：“不到长城非好汉。”由此不难看出长城在老百姓心中的地位。如果你要参观长城，北京的八达岭长城是个不错的选择。

长城非常宏伟，像一条巨龙，蜿蜒盘旋在高山上。它越过巍巍群山，穿过茫茫草原，跨过浩瀚的沙漠，奔向茫茫的大海。它西起嘉峪关，东到山海关,途经甘肃，宁夏，陕西，山西，内蒙古，北京，天津，河北，辽宁9个省市、自治区，全长21196.18千米。

长城历史悠久，是世界古代史上最伟大的军事防御工程，它并非简单孤立的一线城墙，而是由点到线、由线到面，把长城沿线的隘口、关城和军事重镇连接成一张严密的网，形成一个完整的防御体系。其中烽火台是整个防御工程最重要的组成部分之一，是古时用于点燃烟火传递重要消息的高台。如遇有敌情，白天施烟，夜间点火，台台相连，传递消息，是当时行之有效的消息传递方式。在2000多年的历史长河中,历代统治者凭借长城,多次击退了北方游牧民族的侵扰。对古人来说，长城也是防御入侵的精神防线。

我国的万里长城是世界上规模最大的文化遗产，其建造时间之长，分布地域之广，影响之大，是其他文物不可比拟的。古今中外，凡是到过长城的人无不被它那磅礴的气势和宏伟的规模所震撼。长城象征着中华民族坚不可摧的意志和力量，是中华民族的骄傲。

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.

春节，是一个使人难忘的节日。在这一天，人们穿新衣、看春晚、放鞭炮??

最难忘的就是放鞭炮了。

春节的夜晚，我和老爸一起在外面放鞭炮。我们买了许多鞭炮，有“地雷”、“窜天”??我先拿了一个“地雷”，点燃导火线，我就立马跑到了别的地方。“地雷”已经“开花”了，那声音，不低于排山倒海了！

我老爸拿了一个”窜天”的炮。我觉得很奇怪：它为什么叫“窜天”呢？难道是它能窜到天上去吗？我继续疑惑不解的看着：老爸点燃导火线，便跑到了我这儿。那个“窜天”的导火线燃了起来。我疑惑不解的看着，只见：“窜天”一下子转了起来，它身边燃着火花，等那些火苗快没的时候，目瞪口呆的景象发生了：那个“窜天”突然飞了起来，在空中又燃起了火花，那火花比那时更旺更焰。

这次春节给我留下了许多不解之谜：为什么那个“窜天”在快到的时候又飞了上去，而那些火焰也比以前的旺？当然，这次春节给我留下了许多好记忆、些许快乐、还让我忘都忘不了这次的春节，这次的放鞭炮。这个春节的放鞭炮成了我心中永远都忘不了的记忆，给了我许多问题，也给了我许多快乐。这就是我春节的难忘记忆。

As we know , water is very important to man,we can’t live without water. The amount of water which is suitable to drink is less and less. But some people don’t care about it .They waste a lot of water in their daily life. Even worse, they pour dirty water in to rivers. They throw rubbish into rivers , too. Many rivers and lakes are seriously polluted. Something must be done to stop the pollution.Only in this way can we live happily. If we don’t save water, the last drop of water will be a tear-drop of us.

Table Manners

The main difference between Chinese and western eating habits is that unlike the West, where everyone has their own plate of food, in China the dishes are placed on the table and everybody shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host, be prepared for a ton of food. Chinese are very proud of their culture of cuisine and will do their best to show their hospitality.

And sometimes the Chinese host use their chopsticks to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness. The appropriate thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how yummy it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this, you can just say a polite thank you and leave the food there.

Eating No-nos

Dont stick your chopsticks upright in the rice bowl.Instead,lay them on your dish. The reason for this is that when somebody dies,the shrine to them contains a bowl of sand or rice with two sticks of incense stuck upright in it. So if you stick your chopsticks in the rice bowl, it looks like this shrine and is equivalent to wishing death upon a person at the table!

Make sure the spout of the teapot is not facing anyone. It is impolite to set the teapot down where the spout is facing towards somebody. The spout should always be directed to where nobody is sitting, usually just outward from the table.

Dont tap on your bowl with your chopsticks.Beggars tap on their bowls, so this is not polite.Also, when the food is coming too slow in a restarant, people will tap their bowls. If you are in someones home,it is like insulting the cook.

在浙江的春节中，活动丰富多彩，带有浓郁的民族特色。在农历腊月二十三日，传说这日是“灶王爷上天”之日，因此家家要祭灶神。人们认为灶王爷上天在玉皇大帝面前美言几句，便会给家里带来幸福，可保佑来年一家平安。因此，每年腊月二十三，家家户户都要祭祀灶神，请求他上天后多说好话、吉利话。民间传说，灶王爷上天专门告人间善恶，一旦那家被告有恶行，大罪要减寿三百天，小罪要减寿一百天。

农历腊月二十四扫尘就是年终大扫除，北方称“扫房”，南方叫“掸尘”。在春节前扫尘，是我国人民素有的传统习惯。每逢春节来临，家家户户都要打扫环境，清洗各种器具，拆洗被褥窗帘。其用意是要把一切“穷运”、“晦气” 统统扫出门。

除夕是指每年农历腊月的最后一天的晚上，它与春节(正月初一)首尾相连。过了十二点就是大了一岁。压岁钱是由长辈发给晚辈的，有的家里是吃完年夜饭后，人人坐在桌旁不许走，等大家都吃完了，由长辈发给晚辈，并勉励儿孙在在新的一年里学习长进，好好做人。有的人家是父母在夜晚待子女睡熟后，放在他们的枕头下。

这就是浙江的春节习俗。

“爆竹声中一岁除，春风送暖入屠苏。千门万户曈曈日，总把新桃换旧符。”这是宋代诗人王安石描写的关于春节的一首诗。春节是中华民族的传统节日，每年的除夕这一天大家聚在一起挂对联、贴窗花、包饺子、 吃 年 夜 饭、放鞭炮，高高兴兴等待新年钟声的敲响。

即将过去的二零一三年，“雾霾”天气继续影响了我们的生活。全国上下都在为改善环境做着自己的贡献，今年的春节我该怎么过呢？以前每年春节我都缠着爸爸给我买大量的各种各样的鞭炮，今年当爸爸提出要带我去买鞭炮时，我对爸爸说：“你没看见空气都被污染成什么样了吗？ 还 放 鞭炮？今年就给你们省省钱吧！还有啊，你也要少开车，让我们一起为环保努力吧！”

年三十这天，我和爷爷、大伯、哥哥姐姐、弟弟妹妹在一起贴窗花、挂春联。和奶奶、妈妈一起包饺子，忙的不亦乐乎。爸爸妈妈夸我长大了、懂事了、有责任心了。就这样我们渡过了一个欢乐、美好而有意义的除夕。

今年的春节是一个快乐、美好而有意义的春节。

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!

中国有许多传统文化节日，但我最喜欢过年。每到新年，家家户户贴春联，放鞭炮，敲锣打鼓，张灯结彩，送旧迎新的活动热闹非凡，每一个人脸上都洋溢着节日的喜悦。但你知道吗?过年为什么会有这些喜气的活动呢?这里面有一个美妙的神话传说的故事，现在让我讲给你们听听吧!

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，吞食牲畜，伤害人命。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，但又无能为力。

这一年的除夕，人们正准备扶老携幼去避难。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，村里太平了。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。

春节有很多的习俗，可以放鞭炮、放烟花、贴窗花、穿新衣、贴对联，还有扫尘、洗浴、发红包、吃饺子。我们还可以帮大人的忙，与大人一起包饺子，一起打扫屋子，迎接新年的来到。我最喜欢的就是放烟花了。我们年龄小，鞭炮太危险，所以大人只让我们放烟花。晚上一吃完年夜饭，就去放烟花，烟花真好看呀!

伴随着我们的欢呼声，一个个烟花飞到了空中，点亮了美丽的天空。我们非常的开心。还有一个传统也是我们最喜欢的了，那就是春节我们都会收到长辈们给我们的红包，预示着来年我们都会顺顺利利的过着每一天。

今夜，读《中国文化概论》。

绪论

1、君子的定义

《论语·雍也》说：“质胜文则野，文胜质则史，文质彬彬，然后君子”，意思阐释了文质彬彬的君子应该是这样的，“质朴胜过了文饰就会粗野，文饰胜过了质朴就会虚浮，质朴和文饰比例恰当，然后才可以成为彬彬有礼的君子。”

2、文化的创造过程

人类从“茹毛饮血，茫然于人道”的“直立之兽”演化而来，逐渐形成与“天道”既相互联系又相互区别的“人道”，这便是文化的创造过程。在文化的创造与发展中，主体是人，客体是自然，而文化便是人与自然、主体与客体在实践中的对立统一物。这里的“自然”，不仅指存在于人身之外并与之相对立的外在自然界，也指人类的本能、人的身体的各种自然属性。文化是改造自然、改造社会的活动，它同时也改造“改造者”自身、即实践着的人。人创造了文化，同样，文化也创造了人。

举个例子，一块天然的岩石不具备文化意蕴，但经过人工打磨，便注入了人的价值观念和劳动技能，从而进入“文化”范畴。人打磨石器的过程，人在这一过程中知识水平和技能的提高，在这一过程中结成的相互关系，以及最后完成的这件包含着人的价值取向的石器，都是文化现象，均属“文化”范畴。因此，文化的实质性含义是“人化”或“人类化”，是人类主体通过社会实践活动，适应、利用、改造自然界客体而逐步实现自身价值观念的过程。

简而言之，凡是超越本能的、人类有意识地作用于自然界和社会的一切活动及其结果，都属于文化；或者说，“自然的人化”即是文化。

3、大文化及文化结构

大文化着眼于人类与一般动物、人类社会与自然界的本质区别，着眼于人类卓立于自然的独特生存方式，其涵盖面非常广泛，所以又被称为“大文化”。其文化结构如下四个方面：

（1）由人类加工自然创制的各种器物，即“物化的知识力量”构成的物态文化层。它是人的物质生产活动及其产品的总和，是可感知的、具有物质实体的文化事物，构成整个文化创造的基础。

（2）由人类在社会实践中建立的各种社会规范、社会组织构成的制度文化层。如社会制度、婚姻制度、家族制度、政治法律制度，家族、民族，国家，经济、政治，宗教社团，教育、科技、艺术组织等。

（3）由人类在社会实践，尤其是在人际交往中约定俗成的习惯性定势构成的行为文化层。这一类以民风民俗形态出现，见之于日常起居动作之中，具有鲜明的民族、地域特色的行为模式。如“百里不同风，千里不同俗”之说。

（4）由人类社会实践和意识活动中长期孕育出来的价值观念、审美情趣、思维方式等构成的心态文化层。这是文化的核心部分。

心态文化层又可分为社会心理和社会意识形态两个层次。

社会心理指人们日常的精神状态和思想面貌，是尚未经过理论加工和艺术升华的流行的大众心态，诸如人们的要求、愿望、情绪等等。

社会意识形态则指经过系统加工的社会意识，它们往往是由文化专家 对社会心理进行理论归纳、逻辑整理、艺术完善，并以物化形态——通常是著作、艺术作品——固定下来，播之四海，传于后世。社会意识形态又可区分为基层意识形态（如政治理论、法权观念）和高层意识形态（如哲学、文学、艺术、宗教）。

4、小文化

小文化是排除人类社会——历史生活中关于物质创造活动及其结果的部分，专注于精神创造活动及其结果，因此，被称为小文化。小文化主要讨论涉及精神创造领域的文化现象。需要说明的是，我们在研究人类的精神创造时，不能忽略物质创造活动的基础意义和作用；在讨论关于心态文化诸问题的同时，不能忽略物态文化、制度文化、行为文化对于心态文化的影响和制约。总之，不能将“小文化”与“大文化”割裂开来。

5、中国文化与中国传统文化

上古时华夏族（汉族古称）建国于黄河流域，自认为居天下之中央，故称中国，而将周边地区称为四方。

“中华”之得名，由来已久。“中”，意谓居四方之中。“华”，本意为光辉、文采、精粹，用于族名，蕴含文化发达之意。

1、地理环境对中国文化的作用与影响

地理环境可以分为自然环境、经济环境和社会文化环境。黄河中下游一带成为先民生存和繁衍的最适宜的地区。根据文献记载和考古发掘的结果，夏商周的中心地区是今天河南省的中部和北部、山西省南部、陕西省的关中盆地、河北省的西南部和山东省的西部。这些皆是当时自然环境条件最优越的地区。

在中国占主导地位的传统文化，无论是物质的，还是精神的，都是建立在农业生产的基础上的。它们形成于农业区，也随着农业区的扩大而传播。

黄河中下游地区成为中国上古时代的政治、经济和人文中心。后随着战乱的频仍，中国农耕区的中心，逐渐从黄河流域向长江中下游地区和江南地区转移。“苏杭熟，天下足”和“湖广熟，天下足”的谚语即反映了唐宋以来经济重心南移的历史事实，“东南财税”与“西北甲兵”共同构成了唐以后历代社会政治稳定的基本格局。

中国文化依赖的社会政治结构

中国的社会政治结构：是一种“家国同构”的社会政治结构，是中国一脉相承的封建专制制度和带有某种血缘温情的宗法制度的结合。这种社会政治结构深刻地影响着中国文化，包括占主导地位的意识形态，史学、文学、艺术、民风民俗，甚至科学技术等等。要理解中国文化的特点，需要了解中国传统社会政治结构。

1、宗法制度

宗法制度的本质就是家族制度的政治化。一部中国史，就是一部家族统治史。纵观整个中国历史，宗法制度一直深深地影响着中华民族的生活。

2、家国同构

家国同构是指家庭、家族和国家在组织结构方面的共同性。故梁启超先生说:“吾中国社会之组织，以家族为单位，不以个人为单位，所谓家齐而后国治是也。周代宗法之制，在今日其形式虽废，其精神犹存也。”

3、中国君主专制制度的特点

以武力为先导，控制宗教势力，专制时间漫长。中华民族刚刚进步到文明的边沿，就形成了一个祖先，一个权力，一个核心，这无论与古代埃及，抑或两河流域、印度、古希腊，都是不同的。

[中国文化概论读书笔记

中国结其实是一种古老的编织艺术，由一根根五颜六色的丝线编织而成的，它做为一种装饰艺术，始于唐宋时期。到了明清时期，人们开始给结命名，并有着丰富的内涵，如：如意结代表吉庆有余，双鱼结代表年年有余等。

我家有一个红红的吉祥结。吉祥结的下面有一个看色的大瓷珠，上面画着一枝玫瑰花和一只绿色的小蜻蜓，栩栩如生，甚是好看。在蓝色瓷珠的下面有两条长长的流苏，让人感到非常飘逸。

吉祥结还有着人们美好的愿望。“吉”为美好、有利。而“祥”为富善之意。吉祥结有七个“小耳朵”，又叫“七圆结”。它的编织方法十分简单，具体如下：首先，用一根彩色的丝线摆成双十字，然后将十字最下面的两个丝线的头都压在其右面的线上，以此类推，十字的四个头都压在旁边的线上，将伸出的丝线头一拉，即可。按此方法重复一次，最后再将丝线调整一下，一个吉祥结就完工了。

人们为什么喜欢中国结呢?因为中国结代表着吉祥、美好的祝愿。人们在过年、结婚等都要买中国结，来表达人们希望大吉大利，幸福美满的心愿。

中华文化博大精深，闪烁着智慧得光芒。我们有学富五车、满腹经纶的孔子，有揭露黑暗、直面现实的屈原，有不屈不挠、顽强抗金的岳飞，有心系天下、胸怀宽广的……我们还拥有文化宝典《尚书》、《中庸》、《论语》，拥有造纸术、指南针、火药、活字印刷四大发明，拥有苏绣、湘绣、蜀绣、粤绣四大名绣，还拥有里长城，秦兵马俑、北京故宫、黄山等雄伟壮观的建筑……漫步在经典巨著的道路上，徜徉在中华文化的海洋中，我们无不为这些深刻的哲学理论和传统遗产所折服，我们会情不自禁的感叹道：“我骄傲我是华夏子孙中的一员，我为中华民族的崛起与富强而自豪!” Chinese culture is extensive and profound, flashing wisdom and light.We have Confucius, who are rich in five cars and full -bodies, and Que Yuan, who expose darkness and face reality, and Yue Fei, who is indomitable, stubbornly resisting gold, and has a broad -mindedness of the world ...", Has four major inventions of papermaking, compass, gunpowder, and living characters. It has four famous embroidery: Su Xiu, Xiangxiu, Shu embroidery, and Guangdong embroidery.On the road of classic masterpieces, in the ocean of Chinese culture, we are all convinced by these profound philosophical theory and traditional heritage.The rise of the nation and the prosperity and prosperity! "

时间在延续，时代在发展。随着资本主义生产方式的兴起，中国故步自封统治者还沉浸在往日的辉煌之中时，一些国家用大船利炮无情的轰开了中国的大门，中华民族在深重的苦难中拉开大幕。在与外强侵略的斗争中，一位位的豪情壮志的民族英雄纷纷诞生，一段段可歌可泣故事源远流长。“撼山易，憾岳家军难啊!”的岳飞，“经世自励，廉洁奉公”的林则徐，“我立志杀敌报国，今死于海，义也，何求生为!”的邓世昌，“不入虎穴焉得虎子!”的班超，“人生自古谁无死，留取丹心照汗青”的文天祥……这些人流芳百世，可谓自然!

中华自古就有“中国梦”，古老的民族如一株顽强的常青藤，历经劫难，青葱依旧。他从经历的废墟中从容站起，探索那一条不败的“中国道路”。终于，又一代代伟人出现，使中国重又走上复兴的道路。现在的中国已不是当初落魄、任人宰割的小国家，她已从“灰姑娘”变成“公主”，它已把破旧的衣服脱下，“文明礼仪”写在身上。点点滴滴，都是一颗梦想、一种精神的作用。

传承中华民族的优秀文化和大力弘扬爱国主义情怀尤为重要。我作为一名小学生，积极参加学校的非物质文化遗产的“蛋雕”社团，认真记忆着古代文人留下的经典诗文，我觉得这是我能做到的，也是每个学生需要做到的!愿中华传统文化能成为我们的良师益友，相伴在你我左右，生生不息，源远流长……

我国的传统文化有很多，如剪纸 、京剧、年画、风筝等等，其中我最喜欢的就是风筝。

风筝是我国传统的民间工艺品，它源于春秋时代，在中国已经有几千年的历史了。因为它发出的声音像古筝那样好听，因此叫做风筝。

风筝的形状有各种各样的，有金鱼样子的、美人鱼样子的、蜻蜓样子的……，每当春暖花开的时候，大家都会拿着各种形状的风筝来到郊外或者广场 去放飞，抬眼望去，满天的风筝五颜六色的，好像进了动物园一样，热闹极了!我家就有一个蝴蝶样子的风筝，长得非常漂亮。它全身是浅蓝色的，有一对美丽的翅膀，两只大大的眼睛炯炯有神，放飞起来，就像一只真的蝴蝶在蓝蓝的天空中翩翩飞舞，好看极了!我特别喜欢这个风筝。每当阳光明媚、春风轻拂的时候，爸爸妈妈都会带我去许都广场放风筝。

风筝给我的生活 带来了无穷的乐趣 ，我喜欢风筝。

就像大江大河最后都会汇入海洋一样，各国文化的长河也必然会交错、冲击，然后流入海洋。而我们大中华民族博大精深的五千年的传统文化，也正遭受着西方文化的冲击、挑战，只有我们每一位国民，誓死扞卫我们大中华民族五千年博大精深的文化，才能让中华民族在历史的竞争中不被淘汰。

从望闻问切到火药、指南针，我们大中华民族对世界作出了多少贡献，创造了多少奇迹?五千年文明为我们提供了坚实的基础去改变世界，创造未来。而这一代的年轻人们，却抛弃祖国崇洋媚外!

西餐、韩国日本料理在中国的猖狂，就是因为这一代人的民族意识淡薄，盲目地追捧。例如冬至，我们大中华民族的传统节日，北方有吃饺子的习俗，我们潮汕地区也吃冬至圆，吃了长一岁。去年冬至，学校像往日一样，也没人在谈论关于冬至的事;而几天后外国的圣诞节，全校学生都对这个外国的新年着迷得走火入魔，猖狂的互送苹果，甚至连学校都要学生做圣诞贺卡。这难道不令人感到可悲吗?

我们中国五千年文明的确让我们自豪，可从鸦片战争后中国人不再是当年受到各国人尊重的“唐人”，而是侵略者刀叉下的一块肥肉，中国文化被美国日本摧残，国民对自己的民族失去了信心，于是清朝灭亡。现在我们中国的确是一个经济、军事强国，可我们的文化却是十分脆弱，连那个小韩国都来抢我们的端午节，甚至是四大发明的印刷术……

各国家之间的文化战争，是不会停止的，而胜者可以存留，失败者只能退出历史舞台。作为世界文明的主导者，我们中华民族绝不能倒下。文化长河之间互相碰撞，只有我们每一位国民，都用自己的灵魂扞卫中华民族的传统文化，才能让中国真正强大起来。校园中“三人行，必有我师焉”的诵读儒家文化的读书声、春节时家家户户团聚吃年夜饭、京剧川剧的精髓代代相传……这不是人们对中华文化的支持吗?

握紧刀枪，打一场文化的翻身战，我们中国一定会成为文化强国!

中国的传统节日包括春节、元宵节、清明节、端午节、中秋节、重阳节等。正月拜年、元宵灯火、清明祭祖、端午龙舟、中秋赏月、重阳登高……节日活动千姿百态，丰富多彩。 中国的传统节日，展示了中华民族和谐为美的道德思想，体现了中华儿女对生活的无限热爱和对社会进步的渴望，表达了华夏子孙对美好理想、智慧与道德的追求和向往。 中国的传统节日，是凝聚中华民族向心力的纽带，是中华民族举国欢庆的聚会。 中国的传统节日，从远古走向现代，从民族走向世界。它代表着过去，也代表了未来，它是弥足珍贵的历史文化遗产，是中华民族凝聚力的象征。 鲁迅说过：“惟有民魂是值得宝贵的，惟有它发扬起来，中国才有真进步。”民魂是什么?传统文化无疑是其核心之一，而中国的传统节日正是传统文化的重要组成部分。 一个忽视自己传统节日的民族，是一个浅薄无知的民族;一个抛弃自己传统节日的民族，是一个走向堕落的民族。 发扬中国传统文化要靠每一个中国人，而传承中国传统节日的重任，落在了我们新一代的身上。 我们都是炎黄子孙，我们都是龙的传人，我们有义务、有责任让我们的传统节日源远流长，发扬光大。 作为年少的我们，加强对中国传统文化的学习，提高对中国传统节日的认识，责无旁贷。 我支持中国的传统节日，它让我学到了中华民族崇尚劳动、尊亲敬祖、敬老敬贤的传统文化。 我支持中国的传统节日，它让我学到了中华民族尊老爱幼、勤劳善良、勇敢智慧的传统美德。 我支持中国的传统节日，它有着美丽的故事、动人的传说。 我支持中国的传统节日，它让我时刻感受着浓厚的亲情，带给我无尽的欢乐与向往。 我是中国传统节日的坚定支持者。

元宵节的晚上，我整理好衣服，走下楼，朝繁华的街道跑去……

我走在青石路上，随着时间的推移，人也渐渐多起来了。到了庙会，只见到处张灯结彩，各种各样的花灯，造型优美，做工精细，真让人眼花缭乱，到处都绚丽多彩。

来往的人群都肩膀挨着肩膀，热闹非凡。我突然看到前面一簇拥挤的人群，我凑上去，左跳跳，右蹦蹦，就是看不到，于是，我像一条水蛇一样挤了进去，抬起头，眼前的事物，着实让我一惊，还打了个抖，两头大狮子朝我扑了过来，我才猛然醒悟，原来是在舞狮啊!我稳住身子，静下心来，观看舞狮。

舞狮的人很有默契，“狮子”有时摇摇头，有时跳来跳去，“狮子”开始走云梯了，围观的人也兴奋起来，“狮子”边走还边晃脑袋，人们都拍手叫好，“狮子”很快就达到了顶端，竹竿上挂着生菜，“狮子”就扑上了生菜。到了地面，有人拿着狮球跑过来，“狮子”好像被惹怒了，双脚在地上蹬得地动山摇，接着是前面的双脚抬起来，追着狮球跑个不停。

人们都相信狮子是祥瑞之兽，舞狮能够带来好运，所以我才能在元宵节看到。

舞狮结束了，围观的人们个个意犹未尽，觉得舞得好，有的人高呼：“再来一遍吧!”有的人还沉浸在刚刚的兴奋之中，而我却在想，舞狮的人到底是谁呢!我追上舞狮的一个人，他摘下狮头，呈现在我面前的竟然是一位满脸皱纹，白发苍苍的人——我的爷爷。

“爷爷，您不是有腿伤吗?怎么还……不痛吗?”我心疼地问。

“我觉得好久没舞过狮子了，想在最后舞一遍，这腿伤……也值了，中国文化，比这腿重要多了，我也老了，这中国文化，还得你们年轻一代继续传承下去啊!可惜……好像也没多少人学舞狮了，我就想带动一下年轻人……哎呦!”爷爷眉头紧皱，摸了摸自己的腿，“加油吧!”只见他转过身颤颤巍巍地走出我的视野……

中国传统文化有很多，包括古文，诗，词，民族音乐，民族戏剧，国画，书法，对联，灯谜等。还有一些传统节日，如春节，元宵节，清明节，端午节，中秋节等，其中我最喜欢的是春节。

春节有很多民族习俗，家家户户贴对联，敲锣打鼓，张灯结彩，还有穿新衣，吃饺子，大人还要给我年钱。在这些习俗中，我最喜欢的是装年钱的小红包了。拿着小红包，我就迫不及待朝外奔去。一出门，我就听见小朋友们的欢呼声，原来他们在楼下的小广场正进行烟花比赛呢!只听“呯呯”几声，各种烟花在天空中绽放，有的像一条巨龙腾空而起，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。我看到这美丽的烟花，心想:“我的烟花一定比他们的烟花好看好多倍”。于是，我赶紧去买烟花，拿着自已的烟花，小心翼翼的点燃之后向着天空发射，只听“啪”的一声，烟花朝天空中直飞而去，当我抬头望着天空时却呆若木鸡了，原来这种烟花叫“花生米爆炸”，只见“啪”的一声就结束了，一点也不漂亮，真让我大失所望。不过看着天空被些五彩缤纷的烟花装扮的绚丽多彩，我们个个欢呼雀跃，开心极了。

春节还有很多美丽的传说。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，吞食牲畜，伤害人命。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，但又无能为这一年的除夕，人们正准备扶老携幼去难。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。从此村里太平了。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。

2016年的春节快到了，我盼望着到来!

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.

Development and the Environment

It is undeniable that the worsening environment has become the biggest concern of the present-day world. Land resources are dwindling because of water loss and soil erosion. Waste gases poison the air we breathe. The rivers and lakes are polluted by waste dumped in them from factories. It is probably no exaggeration to say that deterioration of the quality of the environment threatens the existence of mankind itself.

Some people are of the opinion that the environmental problem is the price we have to pay for economic development. But I do not think that this argument is valid. After all, what is the point of economic growth if people＇s lives are adversely alfected by worsening environmental pollution?

There is plenty of evidence to show that sustainable development can be achieved by balancing economic growth with protection of the environment. The key to achieving this is to make people aware of the seriousness of the problem. Both governments and ordinary citizens should join hands to make this world a better place to live in, not only for ourselves, but also for future generations.

环境与发展

不可否认的是环境恶化已成为当今世界上人们最担心的事了。因为水资源的浪费和土壤被侵蚀，土地资源逐渐缩小。我们呼吸着有毒的空气，河流和湖泊也被附近的工厂里排放出来的废弃物严重污染了。不夸大其词地说，环境质量的恶化很可能威胁人类的生存。

有些人说环境问题是我们为经济发展所付出的代价。对此，我不敢苟同。如果人类的生活被日益恶化的环境污染所影响的话，那么，经济发展的意义何在?

足够的证据表明：经济发展与环境保护的平衡可以实现可持续发展。关键是使人们意识到问题的严重性。政府和普通市民两方都应该携手使地球成为更适合人类居住的地方，这不仅是为我们自己，也是为我们的后代。
