A. 中西文化差異英語論文（3000字以上）
例如：
朱門酒肉臭，路有凍死骨。
一人得道，雞犬升天。
衙門八字開，有理無錢莫進來。
只許州官放火，不許百姓點燈。
四、 風俗習慣
不同的民族形成了各自獨特的風俗習慣：正如英語中一句諺語所說的：「So
many countries, so many customs.」
在對狗的態度上，中國人腦海中狗如同雞、鴨、豬一樣是一種地位十分卑微的動物。常常把狗與「下賤」、「低微」、「無賴」等貶義詞聯系在一起，如「狼心狗肺」、「狗腿子」、「豬狗不如」、「狐朋狗黨」等，[5]（P83）雖然狗也用作看家護院、狩獵、牧羊。狗還常被宰殺烹調，這在西方人看來是非常不能接受的。中國人對狗的態度在諺語中可以體現出來，
如：狗眼看人低。
好狗不擋道。
狗嘴裡吐不出象牙。
狗改不了吃屎。
痛打落水狗。
而狗在西方人眼中不僅是狩獵、看門、工作的得力可靠的好幫手，更是生活中重要的伴侶和朋友，是撫慰人們寂寞空虛生活不可缺少的一部分，甚至將其視為家中的成員，與狗有著深厚的感情。在西方還有發生狗死後，為其安葬立碑的事。
因此，狗的形象在英語諺語中是褒義的，人們對狗是憐愛、贊賞的。英語諺語之中，常常以狗的形象來比喻人的行為。
如：You are a lucky dog.你是一個幸運兒。
Every dog has its day.各人皆有出頭之日。
Old dog will not learn new tricks.老人學不了新東西。
Love me, love my dog.愛屋及烏。
而英語中兔子常代表膽怯，但漢語中與「膽怯」相聯系的動物形象則是老鼠。因此有諺語「氣壯如牛，膽小如鼠」；英語民族常用獅子比喻力量、雄威，所以有諺語：
March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb.三月來如猛獅；去如羔羊。
Every dog is a lion at home.狗是百步王，只在門前狠。
A lion may be beholden to a mouse.老鼠也能幫獅子；弱者也能幫強者。這里因為獅子多產於非洲、印度等地，而英國歷史上與這些地區或國家有著很深的關系。而我國不產獅子，無論南方北方都產老虎。[6]（P73）從前，老虎數量繁多，常出沒山林，侵擾人民，甚至危害人命。人們認為虎為百獸之王，對虎十分敬畏，有「養虎為患」、「伴君如伴虎」的說法，把虎看作力量、威武、雄壯的象徵，因此產生了許多關於與老虎有關的諺語。
例如：山中無老虎，猴子稱大王。
不入虎穴，焉得虎子。
虎毒不食子
初生牛犢不怕虎。
五、 民族性格
中西方由於各自生存環境的差異，以及人們對自身環境的不同應戰，發展出
各自不同的社會文明，從而產生了不同的文化取向、價值觀念、性格特徵。
在古希臘，由於土地的貧瘠，海上通道的開辟，再加上頻繁的戰爭和幾次大規模的民族遷徙，使得他們很早就發展起商業經濟，創造了人類最古老的商業文明。西方成了典型的商業社會，人們從事著頻繁的商業活動，正所謂「The English are a nation of shop-keepers.」（英國全民皆商，外表富強）。經商的成效不在天地鬼神而在自己，在於自己的才幹。[7]（P22-23）商場中的競爭激烈、優勝劣汰、你失我得，這形成了西方人個人意識較強、重視個人作用、個人獨立自主、個人利益的個人主義思想。
Self comes first.自我利益是第一位的。
Everyman for himself and God for us all.個人為自己，上帝為大家。
Near is my shirt, but nearer is my skin.自己的利益最切身。
Self-preservation is the first law of nature.保存自己是自然界的第一法則。
He who depends on another dines ill and sups worse.指望別人，難有好吃喝。
而經商見效快、獲利多、風險大，也養成了西方人急功近利、富於進取、敢於冒險的流動性格。
If at first you don』t succeed, try, try, try again.
Forbidden fruit is sweetest.
Catch as catch can.
Discontent is the first step in progress.
Life is a battle from cradle to grave.人生是一場從搖籃到墳墓的戰斗。
Life, to be worthy of a rational being, must be always in progression. 人生必須永遠前進，才不愧為有理智的人。
Fortune favors the bold. 勇者天佑。
個人主義思想使西方人重視突出個人，喜歡表現自己的個性，樂於標新立異，愛出風頭，尊重個性、自我，並鼓勵個性發展，對別人因個性表現出的任何形態都能夠理解接受，這可以在諺語中體現出來。
It』s squeaky wheel that gets the oil.吱吱叫的輪子先上油。
Tastes differ.個人品位不同。
Every man after his fashion.個人追求個人的風格。
If you』ve got it, flaunt it.這句諺語來源於一部The procer的美國電影。意思是如果你有錢、本事、美貌或性感，就應該讓人瞧瞧。[8]（P334）
而以農業為根本的中國人則截然不同，農業的收獲往往不在耕種者，而是老天。人的意志如何強大也阻止不了乾旱、洪水、風暴等天災的來臨。[7]（P23）另外農業見效慢，而一年一度的豐收來自於長期的扎扎實實、堅持不懈的努力勞動，這形成了中國人思想意識中安定保守、善於堅持忍耐、缺乏冒險、知足的性格的特質。[5]（P23）

D. 用英文列舉一些文化差異的現象
中西文化最常見的九大差異
現代社會，跨文化的言語交際顯得愈發重要。交際中的文化差異隨處可見，言語環境中的文化因素受到普遍重視。下面是中西文化中九大常見差異。1．親屬稱謂英語的親屬以家庭為中心，一代人為一個稱謂板塊，只區別男性、女性，忽略配偶雙方因性別不同而出現的稱謂差異，顯得男女平等。如：英文祖輩為「grandparents，grandfather，grandmother」，而中文祖輩則有所區別：「爺爺、奶奶、外公、外婆」。再如，父母同輩中的稱謂，英文是「uncle」和「aunt」，而中文區分為「伯伯、叔叔、舅舅」和「姑媽，姨媽」等。英文中表示下一輩的「nephew」和「niece」是不分侄甥的，表示同輩的「cousin」不分堂表、性別。2.考慮問題的主體中國人喜歡以對方為中心，考慮對方的情感。比如：「你想買什麼？」而英語中，往往從自身的角度出發，如：「Can I help you?」或「What can I do for you?」3.問候用語中國人打招呼，一般都以對方處境或動向為思維出發點。如「您去哪裡？」而西方人往往認為這些純屬個人私事，他們見面打招呼總是說：「Hi/Hello!/How are you?」4.面對恭維中國人的傳統美德是謙虛謹慎，對別人的恭維和誇獎一般是推辭。如：「菜做得很好吃。」「過獎，過獎，做得不好。」西方人從來不過分謙虛，對恭維一般表示謝意，表現出一種自強自信的信念。如：「You can speak very good French.」「Thank you.」所以，要注意當說英語的人稱贊你時，不要回答：「No,I don』t think so.」這種回答在西方人看來是不禮貌的，甚至是虛偽的。5．電話用語中國人打電話時的用語與平時講話用語沒有多少差異。「喂，您好。麻煩您叫一聲王偉接電話。」英語中打電話與平時用語差別很大。如：「Hello,this is John speaking.」「Could I speak to Tom please?」西方人一接到電話一般都先報自己的號碼或者工作單位的名稱。如：「Hello,52164768,this is Jim.」中國學生剛開始學英語會犯這樣的錯誤：「Hello,who are you please?」6．接受禮物中國人收到禮物時會說：「哎呀，還送禮物干什麼？」「讓您破費了。」客人走後才迫不及待地拆開。西方人收到禮物時，一般當著客人的面打開，並連聲稱好：「Very beautiful!Wow!」「What a wonderful gift it is!」7．稱呼用語中國人見面時喜歡問對方的年齡、家庭等，而西方人很反感別人問及這些私事。西方人之間，如果沒有血緣關系，對男子統稱呼「Mr.」對未婚女士統稱「Miss」，對已婚的女士統稱為「Mrs.」。為了表示禮貌，中國人對陌生人也要以親屬關系稱呼。如「大爺、大娘、大叔、大嬸、大哥、大姐」等。8．體貼他人在西方，向別人提供幫助、關心、同情等的方式和程度是根據接受方願接受的程度來定的；而中國人幫起忙來一般是熱情洋溢，無微不至。中國人建議患上感冒的人馬上去看醫生，表示真誠的關心。而美國人對此不理解，會認為「難道他的病有如此嚴重嗎？」因此，只要回答：「I』m sorry to hear that.」就夠了。9．請客吃飯中國人招待客人時，一般都准備了滿桌美味佳餚，不斷地勸享用，自己還謙虛：「沒什麼菜，吃頓便飯。西方人請客吃飯，菜餚特別簡單，經常以數量不多的蔬菜為可口的上等菜，席間勸客僅僅說：「Help yourself to some vegetables,please.」吃喝由客人自便自定。
E. 求一篇中西方文化差異與英語學習的文章!
兩篇供你參考，希望對你有幫助～～呵呵～
(一）
What are the major differences between chinese and western culture?
I'll list down a few differences:
West:
1. Western culture is based on indivialism rather than on mass (collectivism). For instance, in the US, you always talk about indivial rights, instead of placing the whole society above your own self. This is clearly different in China where a country, society or family are placed above your own self.
2. Western culture is adventurous and exploration based. Westerners like to discover new things, invention and expand outwards. For instance, bungee jumping is considered adventurous and common in western culture, but you will probably find no-one doing such a thing in China.
3. Western culture is based on science, which attempts to resolve people and nature's relationship.
4. West uses law to resolve people and people's relationship. You can never find 'law' well-established in China. For 2000 years, China is a land that's based on human relationship rather than law.
5. West uses 'god' and religion to resolve human and spiritualism relationship. In case of problems with your own self, you just pray to god.
6. A culture that expands and develop outwards.
Chinese Culture:
1. A culture based on masses (collectivism). People placed country and family above your own self.
2. A culture that is based on humanism and people
3. To resolve the relationship betwen man and nature, the chinese attempts to fuse the human and 'heaven' as one. (天人和一)
4. To resolve people and people's relationship, chinese uses ethics and tolerance (中恕之道)
5. To resolve human and spiritualism, chinese emphasizes internal cultivation (修身養性)
6. A focus on balance and mean. By 'mean', it means 'middle way'. You don't go into extremism. Peace is always honoured.
7. Pay homage to heaven and earth, as well as bearing a remembrance to the homeland. (敬仰天地,思鄉懷土) This was accorded to the fact that chinese had been a farming civilization and therefore will be more prone to remember their land.
8. A culture that expands internally rather than outwards.
Some of the disadvantage of old chinese culture:
1. Debase women and chauvanistic
2. An over-emphasis on past history instead of present (lacks pragmatism)
Can you list some more differences? Any comments and contributions are appreciated.

The difference between west and east
I wonder how many things do you know about the difference between west and east? I can tell you some. East and west , they are different in many ways. Today, I want to talk about it in the following three parts. They are food, dressing and living styles.
First , food.
In China, we prefer noodles, rice , jiaozi as the main course. We like cooking a lot of delicious dishes, then we set up the tables, put the dishes on the tables, sit together, and taste the dishes together, we don』t eat with indivial plates, when we eating ,we like chatting and laughing, we think it』s warm and happy to eat this way; But in England or other west countries, people like eating hamburgers, chips, pizza, pasta as their main course, they eat them with vegetable salad, they eat with drinking (water or juice),and they eat with separate plates. In China, we become full up when we finish all the food, then we don』t eat anything, but in west countries, people eat desserts after they finish their meals.
Second, dressing.
In China, we prefer colorful clothes, we dress them in different places, some time many people don』t mind the places we will go, and dress more formal or less formal, and some people just wearing beautiful clothes, don』t make up; But in west countries, people dress according their visiting places, in daily times, they often wear casual clothes, but if they go to a formal places ,they often wear suits, ladies wearing beautiful dresses, pretty hats. No matter how old the ladies are, they always make up.
Third, living styles.
Chinese prefer getting up early and go to bed early too. We usually go home early and cook meals, then we eat and watch TV, then we go to bed. We often work ring the holidays , children often go to different spare schools to study. We like save money and when we have enough money, we then go and buy what we want, in my opinion, Chinese are so tired and busy; But in most west countries, people live in a easy and happy lives. They get up late and go to work late too, they go to pubs, bars to have a rest after they finish their work, they enjoy their holidays, they seldom go to work ring the weekend. if you go to west countries, you can take part in their joyful night life.
That』s the differences I found ring the days I stayed in England. They are not all of them, but I think they can give my friends some information. Though west countries have more advantages in living, I still believe that 「East or west , home is best」, I still think China will always be my deeply loved mother.

文化差異(Culture Difference):種族 National race
The whole question of the changing role of Blacks in American society as been the subject of newspaper articles around the world so frequently that visitors to the United States do not know what to expect when they arrive. They may be surprised when they see that Blacks and Whites work side by side in offices , factories , and schools across the country . The majority of Blacks in the United States, however, live in and around only a small number of American cities.
Many dark-skinned visitors arrive in the United States fearing personal attack or expecting various degrees of racial prejudice. Some forms of discrimination [1] still exist ,unfortunately, especially in the areas of the housing , schools , and jobs . The school equality is still more a dream than a reality. There are still too many areas of the country where Black Americans do not enjoy the same full opportunities as White Americans . However, the vast majority of American s are working , studying , and sharing public places together. This was not true even a few years ago in some parts of the country , but progress is steadily being made . You will be able to observe the improvement in race relations as soon as your plane lands . You will see it in the airport, in public buses and trains , in theaters , restaurants , rest room, in sops and libraries , in offices and factories . Close personal friendships between Blacks and Whites , full trust and social relationships are still not common , except in certain areas, However, even in this - the slowest area of progress-there has been change , especially among young people.
[1] discrimination n. 辨別, 區別, 識別力, 辨別力, 歧視

Culture Difference
發表日期：2005-04-22 10:58:52 作者：洪恩在線
It is not a novel knowledge that culture difference exists between eastern and w
estern countries. But not until I heard the lecture given by a Chinese scholar,
who has been lived in Australia for several years, did I came to understand that
how different it is.
The scholar summarized that we, as Chinese, prefer to think in a spiral, casual
way, while western people, more often than not, are fond of a linear, business-i
s-business way. Supporting the idea, he named out examples he himself experience
d while staying in Australia. Here are some excerpts.
Firstly, line up matter. If you are in China, it is not rare to see that a crowd
of people throng in the supermarket, trying to get service first. People in Ch
ina do line up, the scholar said in a humorous tone, but they prefer to line up
at a horizontal way.
In contrast, in western countries, say, in Australia, people always line up, no
matter in a big bank or a small grocery store. And they take it for granted. Lin
ing up has long since become part of their life that they scarcely doubt it or g
row impatient while doing it.
Secondly, first come, first served. Though in words it is a normal principle her
e in China, it』s mostly not the case in reality. Take an example of what usuall
y happens in a bank. Here when we are in a middle-sized bank, and suppose we are
talking with the cashier, it always tends to have someone butt in, claiming tha
t his or her request takes only one second.
And it seems that we have already been accustomed to it. So has the cashier. But
in western countries, it never applies. It is always rude that you butt in whil
e the cashier is serving his customer. No matter how little time your request co
sts, the cashier, more often than not, is likely to turn you down. Only one cust
omer at a time is his principle.
Thirdly, change stuff. Suppose I am in a shopping mall and the stuff I purchase
cost me 142 RMB. While lining up at the casher』s and happening to check my wall
et, I find I have 200 RMB and two one-yuan coins. What will I do? To give the ca
shier 200 RMB, or give him 200 RMB and the two one-yuan coins so that he could r
eturn me 60 RMB, which is more convenient for both of us.
I think when the Chinese were in this situation, they would mostly choose the la
tter one. But the scholar said, in Australia, they won』t do so. He then told th
at he himself did try it once, and he thought it was self-evident to do so. But
the cashier did not understand.
So the scholar latter on summarized that western people are prone to lack of fle
xibility while doing their work. Then how about us in their eyes? They think we
Chinese have a tendency to make things complicate. What an interesting contrast!
Here I don』t intend to tell which is better and which is worse. What I try to s
ay is just that we might well be in conformity with the customs and be aware of
the culture differences while being abroad. Like the saying goes—while you are
in Rome, do as Romans do. If you don』t want to put yourself in the public, bear
ing all this in mind is perhaps the best policy.

Dear Caroline,
I think your scholar friend spent several years in Australia and completely miss
ed the most important value represented in his examples. That value is egalitar
ianism. The principle that people should be treated equally.
When the bank teller insists on attending one customer at a time the principle i
s not "only one customer at a time" it is "this customer waited in line and so w
ill you, no matter how tall, how well dressed or how loud your voice." And you
can be sure if the customer is a poor working man and the impatient man is a wel
l dressed business man, the customer will very bruskly insist on his rights not
to be interrupted. A well run bank will have a customer service person who can
answer questions, but people doing transactions must wait their turn. My impres
sion of a business or a nation where people are not treated equally in the marke
tplace and a bully can obtain service without waiting is a place where there is
a class oriented culture and/or where one can bribe one …………[文章太長，沒有全部顯示，點擊本文標題閱讀全文]
Re：Culture Difference caroline.(caroline) 2K 05.04.20 12:25
Dear Tim,
The lecture given by the scholar is mainly on English learning. That's for he na
med such examples. He just aimed to tell the audience how important to understan
d a culture is, which is different from our motherland.
What you said is indeed right. And I am with you on this. The corruption in Chi
na is rampant these years, you relate it with class. Well, I haven't thought abo
ut it. But I do agree that the idea of class roots in many people's mind.
Like the example you took in the article, I almost could be sure that here the c
ashier would definitely turn to the well dressed business man. You say that the
poor working man will insist on his rigts not to be interrupted. But here I gues
s he would just pretend not to mind it and let it be.
I myself experienced this once, in fact. Once I was in a post office to have a p
ackage posted. You know, it was crowded inside and the people lined up in a wayw
ard way. So when it was my turn, and when I was just about to tell the man my re
quest, one guy …………[文章太長，沒有全部顯示，點擊本文標題閱讀全文]

Dear Panpanpan,
I wouldn't have written in such a non-diplomatic fashion except that I wanted to
see what people thought, and that sort of behavior is particularly irritating t
o me. I will try not to lose my temper when I am in China. I don't want to get
"kung fu'd". Great to hear from you, friend. I want to hear more of your thou
