Culture Difference

Nowadays, Globalization is changing the world to be a smelting furnace, more and more common things have taken form between the East and West of China. However, there are also many differences, particularly in the area of culture. Now we will take the culture differences between China and America for example to explain the difference between the East and the West.

In my mind, the most different area is the culture of diet. Obviously, the foods people eat in the two places are much different. While people in America are enjoying their bread, Chinese focus their attention on rice and cooked wheaten food. American dishes emphasize the high energy which are storage in various kinds of meat and fishes, so when they eat the dishes of China, they often consider it to be grass. Differences between the drinks are also part of the difference in diet. To Chinese, tea is one of the preferences, but coffee and cola is the American favorite, although they are also popular in China. This is a traditional manner which will never be changed.

The differences also exist in the custom of diet as well as the food cooking. Chinese people will try their best to prepare the most delicious food, and always persuade their guests to eat more, even they have gotten enough, while the people in America believe their guests when they say‘No, thanks, I am full.’, and will take them into eating any more.

Focusing on the reasons of the differences, we will find the different regions which they lie in are very important. For having different climates and location, various histories and culture backgrounds, the two areas formed the discrepancy in many aspects, just like the inside information of culture between the Confucian School and the culture of Ancient Greece. It may trace back to many centuries ago, so we can not make every details clear.
