Differences Between Chinese Culture and

American Culture


I have been living in China for twenty years. I was born in

JiangSu province, and also
grew
up
in
there.
My
family
members
were
from
different
parts
of
China.
My
mom
’
s
hometown is at the Huabei plain which is the north side of The Yellow River. However, my
father grew up in Nanjing, the famous city which locates beside the Yangzi River.

Most of people in southern China are used to have rice as their daily main food resource,
but northern China mostly has wheat. But no matter which part of China, meat is not the
major food for us. Chinese people always believe that rice, wheat, vegetable, fruit are the
best for our health. In contrast, meat would give more troubles to our health, for example,
heart attack, high blood pressure, and etc.

But people in America, mostly have meat as their food resource. The most important is
that
they
mostly
have
beef,
chicken,
shrimp,
turkey,
instead
of
pork
and
lamb.
In
restaurants,
you
can
easily
find
hamburger,
steak,
ribs
with
a
little
rice
and
a
piece
of
bread. I believe
that the
food
style
gives American people much more energy than
we
have. They are much stronger than us. That is the fact!

I have heard of an interesting story about Yao Ming, who is one of the famous NBA player
right now. During his first season in NBA, millions of people are attracted by his height and
his cute smile. However, he is not strong enough to play NBA game yet! He ever told the
reporter that he likes to have soup that his mom makes for him. Soup could not help him,
only steak, cheese, butter could make him stronger and gives him more energy. In order
to increase his competition, he has to be used to American food style!

“
Custom
is
the
great
guide
of
human
life
”
,
wrote
Scottish
philosopher
David
Hume.
Knowing the customs of a country is, in effect, a guide to understanding the soul of that
country and its people. As a foreign language leaner, we should know the culture in our
target language
’
s country. Only in this way, we can really learn the language well.
People
express
their
culture
through
traditions
in
food,
clothing,
recreation,
and
ceremonies;
through
the
education
system
and
institutions
of
learning,
including
museums
and
libraries;
and
through
the
arts,
encompassing
the
visual,
literary,
and
performing arts. As a result, we will talk about the differences from some aspects.
First, I will mention the addressing. In China, we will put the family names before our given
names, and then in order to express our politeness, we would like to add
“
sir
”
or
“
lady
”
or
their

title after the name. On contrast, in America, people would like to put their family
names after their given names and first names and they will put Mr., Mrs., Miss, Ms, Dr. or
