西方人和东方人的不同点
西方人和东亚人的思维方式确实不同。
西方人倾向于注重分析，更加注意某一场景的关键或焦点所在——例如他们会更加留意《蒙娜丽莎》画中的女人，而非她后面的岩石和天空。
尼斯伯特说，与此相反，东亚人则倾向于看整个画像，在对他们所看到的事物作出结论或判断时，依赖于背景信息。
西方人所受的教育是要他们注意对自己重要的物体，要有他们能够追随的目标，”他说，“东亚人则更可能对社会领域给予注。
Chine and Americans literally view the world differently.
Westerners tend to be analytical and pay more attention to the key，or focal，obiects in a
scene —— for example，concentrating on the woman in the“Mona Lisa”，as oppod to the rocks and sky behind her．
East Asians，by contrast，tend to look at the whole picture and rely on contextual information when making decisions and judgments about what they e
Westerners are taught to pay attention to objects that are important to them，to have goals that they Can follow，”he said．“East Asians are more likely to pay attention to the social field．
Chine people think highly of relationship between each other, while American people think much of their independence. Let’s take time, money, and relationship into consideration. For Chine people, it can be relationship first, money cond, and time third. However, American people may put time first, money cond, and relationship third. So if you want to ask a American out, just think you are going to take their time off, and you should think highly of it. And for American heroes, they are known to u independence to better society, for example, M.L.K.J. But for Chine heroes, they are thought to have a strong tie to other people, such as Zhu Geliang, Zheng Chenggong, and so on.
Second, Chine are connsus, and Americans are strategically. If two neighbors quarrel becau of something rious, Chine tend to drop a bit benefit to get a place where both people are happy. However, if this happens in American, they will warn the person who does wrong. If not listening, they will threaten to call the police or saying “I’ll e you in the court”. That is different from Chine people. The differences have both benefit and badness.
Third, China is country that is made up of one majority. Chine majority come from China. However, as to America, people come from the entire world. And the majority is not from America itlf. It is a country that consist different nations. Tho nations come into America and become the same after a long time. This can be called “Tea-pot effect”. Becau of this culture difference, people have different opinion on nations.
Of cour, there are many other differences between Americans and Chine. Hope both our two countries can be improved although we have much in difference.
Divorce was once a dreaded fate for women in China, which is inconceivable in American
s’ opinions. Now, many younger urban women view it almost as a civil right, which helped drive up divorce rates. I think there is the same suction in American. But the social attitude is quite different. There is still some social stigma attached to divorce in China. Children fretted about the shame associated with divorce. Becau of this, parents still simply bear the marriage. With the growing divorce rate, society and media focus on divorce. Although changing social mores have brought changing expectations of marriage, divorce is still a stigma. Divorce has a great effect on children. Most of crime teens are from the divorce family. The influence leads to couples stick with their marriage. In America, children often accept their parents’ decision more quietly than tho in China. They choo the one who they would like to live together with in future. Divorce only means that they may have another family member. To a real extent, I think children in America are ruthless.
In fact, my parents wanted to get divorced not long ago. My younger brother and I tried our best to prevent it, and then they gave up their amazing decision. At that time I had many strange thoughts. I thought I would became lost interest in learning and my little bro
ther would wear a ragged T-shirt, leave school, and his arm was ringed with skull tattoos, if my patents got divorced. All the thoughts make me turn into basket ca. My friends and classmates have the same attitudes to divorce as me: we really do not be against divorce, only for it does not happen to our family. We can not accept it calmly as the American children. I think it is the difference.
“Cur of the Golden Flower” was premiere in December, 2006, all around the world at the same time. There is no doubt that the Americans and the Chine share the same joy and the same entertainment. Young people both in two nations have great interests in music, video games and sport stars. But the difference is quite clear. In China, the most of young people care for main streams. They do not want to be considered as a man who falls behind ranks. So it is not strange that most people like the same singer, the same TV shows and the same computer games. It means that you may be dominated by such style as mass media tells. And you can find the vogue in China is controlled by styles from Japan and Korea through their TV plays, cartoons, pop singers, famous actors and actress. In America, young people prefer to show how different they are from others. Foll
owing this thought, they spend their amount of time on arching special goods and odds. A Sex Pistols T-shirt is more satisfying. But, they are also high on latest Jordan shoes. The reason why they are discrepancy is that there are great deals of cultural gmentations in the United States, so that they can not make a clear choice. In a n, one in China does not have this trouble.
In old times, going to college was a significant achievement both in the two countries. But once higher education became widely available, it cead to carry the dame weight. Not only in China but also in America, people make it em that admission to a college ranked higher than another is crucial. Now, parents and their children have to face to the problem “which one is the best?” In China, the best ones are usually nation universities, which is opposite to America. As we know, stellar and elite universities are most private, especially Ivy League schools. Some time even you find a proper university; the field of study will still be another problem. As extremely small, elusive qualities are subject to analysis, the results are bound to be uncertain and contradictory, leading parents to an even deeper analysis.
