Being aware of the differences that exist between cultures and knowing how to act when we are faced with puzzling cross-cultural situations are important skills for harmonious intercultural relations.
Cross-cultural research shows that we can examine all cultures by using a basic taxonomy of cultural behaviors which allows us to see the differences and similarities among cultures.
This article provides students with knowledge and activities to enhance their awareness of cultural patterns among the different cultures of the world.
In the following lesson students will learn about basic attitudes different cultures have toward three cultural value dimensions: the role of the individual in a society, power distance, and time orientation. Students will then apply this knowledge in activities that require them to decide how to act in cross-cultural situations based on the information they have learned about that cultures values.
I have come here for about half year, I have travelled here about several times, with my dear sister,with my dear brother, with my closely friend,so when I again was invited to travel around here, I said to myself that there would be nothing new can surprise me.

It is necessary totakemore time to know all things around me.
In all ones life time it is oneself that one spends the most time being with or dealing with. But it is precisely oneself that one has the least understanding of. When you are going upwards in life you tend to overestimate yourself. It seems that everything you seek for is within your reach; luck and opportunities will come your way and you are overjoyed that they constitute part of your worth. When you are going downhill you tend to underestimate yourself, mistaking difficulties and adversities for your own incompetence. It’s likely that you think it wise for yourself to know your place and stay aloof from worldly wearing a mask of cowardice, behind which the flow of sap in your life will be retarded.
To get a thorough understanding of oneself is to gain a correct view of oneself and be a sober realist -- aware of both one’s strength and shortage. You may look forward hopefully to the future but be sure not to expect too much, for ideals can never be fully realized. You may be courageous to meet challenges but it should be clear to you where to direct your efforts. That’s to way so long as you have a perfect knowledge of yourself there won’t be difficulties you can’t overcome, nor obstacles you can’t surmount.
To get a thorough understanding of oneself needs selfappreciation. Whether you liken yourself to a towering tree or a blade of grass, whether you think you are a high mountain or a small stone, you represent a state of nature that has its own raison deter. If you earnestly admire yourself you’ll have a real sense of self-appreciation, which will give you confidence. As soon as you gain full confidence in yourself you’ll be enabled to fight and overcome any adversity.
To get a thorough understanding of oneself also requires doing oneself a favor when it’s needed. In time of anger, do yourself a favor by giving vent to it in a quiet place so that you wont be hurt by its flames; in time of sadness, do yourself a favor by sharing it with your friends so as to change a gloomy mood into a cheerful one; in time of tiredness, do yourself a favor by getting a good sleep or taking some tonic. Show yourself loving concern about your health and daily life. As you are aware, what a person physically has is but a human body that’s vulnerable when exposed to the elements. So if you fall ill, it’s up to you to take a good care of yourself. Unless you know perfectly well when and how to do yourself a favor, you won’t be confident and ready enough to resist the attack of illness.
To get a thorough understanding of oneself is to get a full control of one’s life. Then one will find one’s life full of color and flavor.

Cultural Differences between the East and the West
Culture, according to the definition given by Hofstede, is the collective mental programming of the people in an environment, conditioned by the same education and life experience. Therefore, there are differences between various nations or regions, because people are affected by education, society and work experience. Take the cultural difference between the East and the West as the example, China is a country that endures high power distance while America endures lower power distance. Therefore, status symbol is very important for Chinese and a superior having the privilege is a matter of course. But people in America think that they are all equal. Besides, the westerns are individualistic while the easterners are more collectivistic. In individualistic societies, people focus on their own values and needs, relying on individual efforts to serve their interests. In the collectivistic nations, people combine themselves into one or several communities, finding their own place in the group and they mentally rely on the community, so harmony seems important in those nations. There are three main differences between the East and the West, namely uncertainty avoidance index, masculine versus femininity and long vs. short term orientation.

东西方文化差异
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。

前几天,我读了两篇神话——读《普罗米修斯的故事》和《燧氏钻木取火》后,我深有感触。
《普罗米修斯的故事》讲了普罗米修斯同情人类,为人类盗火结果被宙斯惩罚。《燧氏钻木取火》讲的是一个叫燧氏的年轻人在伏羲的指引下发现了钻木取火的方法。
读了两篇神话后,我发现了它们有相同点,也有不同点。相同点在于他们都是由一位天神帮助人类,带给人类光明,而且都很同情人类。不同点有两点,第一点:东方神话——《燧氏钻木取火》,伏羲同情人类,直接赐火给人类,然后将火熄灭再给出提示,告诉人类火在哪里,有人类自己寻找方法,从这里可以看出东方天神的博爱。而西方神话——《普罗米修斯的故事》我认为西方既有善良、勇敢的神,就比如普罗米修斯,他同情人类,于是冒险去见宙斯,请求宙斯把火赐给人类,可宙斯却说:“不给就是不给!”但他为什么不愿意把火给人类呢?因为宙斯自私,他希望人类永远愚昧无知,这样他就可以通知世界了。由于宙斯不赐火给人类,那么普罗米修斯也只好去盗火,结果被宙斯发现,普罗米修斯被捆在了高加索山的最高峰上,受尽折磨,这就说明了普罗米修斯的勇敢,可也写出了宙斯的自私、残酷无情。将东西方神话一对比,我发现东方天神很博爱,也很智慧,他将提示给人类,让人类自己找方法。
第二点是:《燧氏钻木取火》,伏羲指引年轻人,让他找到了永不熄灭的火种——钻木取火的方法,说明东方人民注重的是方法,方法是靠人想出来的,也就是说人们只相信人自己的力量。《普罗米修斯的故事》是普罗米修斯为人类盗火,这样会让人类觉得——神什么都可以做到,便养成了一种依赖。这说明西方的人民相信神,认为神可以给人一切。
读完这两篇神话后,解决了我的一个问题——为什么中国的发展比其它国家快,因为中国人相信自己的力量,而西方人民相信神。

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。
