Question

What is the meaning of the word——culture? Does it mean different festivals? Of course，the important differences between Western and Chinese people do not center around a few festivals．The big difference is the different ways we think：our different opinions to life，friendships，work and so on．Most people would probably agree that the differences between America and China are bigger．Now I will give you some examples about the differences between America and China．

I asked one of my Chinese classmates how she would spend her summer holiday．She told me she loved her mother and missed her，so she would ________．You probably think this is a common（普通的）feeling．But if a young American said that，American people might think she is mentally（精神） sick．

Another difference：you always see lots of children walking，running around and laughing．But in Western cities you almost never see children out alone without their parents．American parents are afraid that their children would be kidnapped（綁架）．

How about at restaurants? In China people at pushed（推動(dòng)）to drink wine even if they don’t want to drink．In America at least we know that is not very smart（明智的）．

I see some litter in Chinese beautiful parks sometimes．When I was climbing Xiangshan mountain，I saw some litter on it．In the West you seldom see waste in parks．
