Traditional Chinese culture is beginning to capture the attention of the world. This is true even as popular culture that has traditionally been considered Western begins to spread throughout China. Kung Fu, especially, has had a great impact on the millions of people who first learned about China through it. From that, they may come to China and learn about other aspects of this culture, such as traditional operas like the Beijing and Sichuan ones. Asian nations have long known about the greatness of ancient Chinese culture. Their own cultures are a mix of native ones and those Chinese characteristics. Korea and Japan long ago adopted ideas such as Confucianism is something that continues today even as it is challenged by Pop Culture. This strength comes from the ideas given in the Four Books of Confucianism (The Great Learning, The Doctrine of the Mean, The Analects of Confucius, and The Book of Mencius). These books built upon the ideas of an even more ancient period codified in the Five Classics. From them, the West learns such things as Fengshui and other concepts that are uniquely Chinese. China has taken steps to further this spread of its culture by establishing Chinese Cultural Centers in such places as the United States and Europe.

The passage mainly tells us the importance of protecting traditional Chinese culture, which is challenged or facing extinction because of the developing society and changing lifestyle. Besides, China is nationwide sparing no efforts to do it.

The protection of national and folk culture is of great significance to Chinese cultural diversity and also to the harmonious development between local economic and social development. It is reported that the Guangdong government pays special attention to protecting Chaoju(潮剧)， a local drama born in Chaozhou in the eastern Guangdong province.

In my opinion, some measures should be taken to protect traditional culture effectively. To start with, we should make a law to regulate the society’s performance. Besides, we should draw more people’s attention to it, for the more they know about the importance of culture protection, the stronger the support we can get from the public.

In a word, it is high time for us to treasure and develop our own valuable culture.

这段主要告诉我们保护*传统文化的重要性,这是挑战或面临灭绝,因为发展中社会和改变生活方式。此外,*全国全力以赴去做。

保护国家和民间文化是*文化的多样性具有十分重要的意义,也是地方经济和社会发展之间的和谐发展。据报道,广东省*支付特别注意保护Chaoju(潮剧),一个当地的戏剧在潮州出生在广东省东部。

在我看来,应该采取一些措施来有效地保护传统文化。首先,我们应该做一个法律调节社会的表现。除此之外,我们应该吸引更多的人的关注,因为他们知道关于文化保护的重要性,更强的我们可以从公众的支持。

总之,是时候让我们珍惜和发展我们自己的有价值的文化。

《普罗米修斯的故事》讲述了普罗米修斯同情人类，为人类盗取火种，让人类过了上幸福的生活，自己却被束缚在高加索山上，接受宙斯的惩罚，最后，一位名叫海格里斯的勇士救出了普罗米修斯，让他重获自由。

而《燧氏钻木取火》讲述了大神伏羲同情人类，将火赐给了他们，不过，因为某个人的疏忽，让他们失去了火，重新陷入了黑暗之中，这时，有一位年轻人不畏狂风暴雨，不怕跋山涉水，在伏羲的指引下找到了一种永远不会熄灭的火。

从这两则故事中可以看出两位大神——普罗米修斯和伏羲都富有同情心，可是，同样有关于火的神话故事却隐藏着许多不同点。

从《普罗米修斯的故事》中——“狂风终日在他身边呼啸，冰雹敲打着他的面庞；凶猛的大鹰在他耳边尖叫，用无情的利爪撕裂他的肌体。”这段话表现了普罗米修斯的善良、无私和勇敢，彰显了西方神话故事里神的情感，然而，《燧氏钻木取火》中——“年轻人翻过高山，涉过大河、穿过森林，历尽艰辛，终于来到遂明国……年轻人不灰心，他找来各种树枝，耐心地用不同的树枝进行摩擦。”这段话体现了东方人吃苦耐劳的坚毅品格和人定胜天的壮志雄心，东方神话崇尚以人为主，每个成就都来自于人类自身的努力，刻画出了一个个勇敢鲜活的英雄人物。

两则神话的形成截然不同，相比之下，我更喜爱东方神话，因为在人们遇到困难时，他们是靠自己的努力而成功的，不是靠别人的施舍和给予。

东西方神话各有各的特点，西方神话充满美妙奇幻；东方神话充满艰辛智慧，这也让我明白了世界是多元的、美好的。

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，*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*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。*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。*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。

Enrich Our Culture, Diverse Our Culture

Speaking of the future of our culture, I strongly believe that the culture will be more and more diverse.

Firstly, you must be astonished when a native Australian ties to welcome you by touching your nose; you may not believe that even men can wear skirts, but that’s what Scottish men do; you can hardly picture what a woman or girl would like be with a plate-like mouth in an African tribe. And it is cultural diversity that colors our world.

Besides, it helps preserve our own cultures.

A few years ago, the balance of our own culture and others was broken by the flood of TV plays and cultures from Japan and South Korea. What’s worse, when did we begin to celebrate Christmas or Valentines’ Day and not be able to tell the date of Tomb-sweeping Day? However nowadays, with the defense of the importance of our own culture and the heat of Chinese traditional culture, like Confucianism and Taoism, our awareness of national confidence, patriotism and solidarity has increased greatly.

Lastly, cultural diversity does not mean to resist or to accept all the other cultures. It’s based on one’s own culture. (Imagine that all the other family members are enjoying their

dumplings with their chopsticks while you taking out a pair of knife and fork and cutting the dumplings into pieces so that you are able to eat. I’m absolutely sure you will appear in the front page of Humor the next day. Do as Romans do).

And I think we had enough lessons learned from the Opium War of 1840 due to which numerous of our fellow countrymen died while the British made a good fortune. Just like the Chinese sayings of “two heads are better than one” and “abolish its defects, absorb its merits.” say, only by absorbing good ideas from other cultures and ap*ing them to ours can we better develop our nation and better serve our people.

To sum up, culture diversity makes our world more colorful, fulfills our pursuit for knowledge, and unites its own country. So let’s learn to respect different cultures and enrich our own ones.

cultural difference between west and east

everything is relative,cultural difference being no exception.culture,as the total pattern of human behavior and its products,oversteps geographical limits and historical conditions in many ways,and it is characterized by its strong penetrativeness and fusibility.

the advancement of the globalized economy and the rapidity and ease of modern communication,transportation,and mass media have resulted in an ever increasing exchange between cultures,unprecedented in scale,scope,and #url#nsequently,an increase in universality and a reduction in difference between cultures is an inevitable trend.it is no surprise to see phenomena characteristic of one culture existing in another.as a result,some people even fear that the world will become a dull place when all the different nationalities behave exactly alike.

nevertheless,the “cultural sediment” formed through long-range accumulation is not to be easily removed,and the cultural tradition handed down from generation to generation shows great consistency and continuity.the cultures of different regions and nations still have their own distinctive peculiarities,and therefore significance still needs to be attached to the study of the individualities of different cultures against the background of their universality.

My dream is to study abroad in the future. I am always that kind of life can come true soon. But, before I realize my dream, I have to do some preparation. I think the most important thing I need to do first is to adapt the life there. It is said that there is a big difference between the eastern and western culture. If I know nothing, it is easy for me to have culture conflict. It will put me into an embarrass place. For example, dragon is the leader for all animals and it has holy good meaning in china. But it means violence in the western country. I need to learn as much the cultural conflicts as possible to make my oversea life become easier.
