中西方文化差异The Different Culture Between China And England.ppt

The culture includes many things,such as habits languages and so on.Now I want to introduce something about it. At first,I’d like to talk about the marriage customs.In our China the bride and bridegroom would in red because we believe the red color reprsents lucky and the wedding would be host in the bridegroom’s house . In England the bride always in her white wedding gown and their wedding will be host in a church. Chinese often use these words such as color 、smell 、taste、sharp to describe the food. England usually pay attention to the calories、vitamins、proteins and so on. If we patted on a child’s head,it means we like the child. England treat the action as a misbehavious.they think you don’t respect the child so you will make his parents angery. When we meet somebody at the first time,we usually ask his name、age or the payment,while Americans think it’s imploite and we don’t say“thanks”all the times especially saying it to our parents or brother but Americans speak it frequently. In china if we have a supper,we would invite many people and we usually think the more the better because we think it will be more lively. on the other hand,if the host respect you he will give you a seat at first and sit on the left chair . The host will prepare all the things well.in addition the host will get something tast well into the gust’s bowl . The host will let the guests to choose what to eat or drink.if the host got somethings into the guest’s bowl,they will think that the host force them to finish it. England would like to keep quiet and make the banquet sweet.they regard the right as a symbol of respect.
