接触文化英语

This is because the countries with English culture filled with way of life of individual centers, any physical intimacy between same-sex implies homosexuality. While China lives in the lifestyle which attaches more importance to social environment, so there would no worries about intimate physical contact between two men. Anthropologists divided culture into two broad categories: contact culture and the non-contact culture. Americans and the North europeans belonge to the first category, while the Asians are the second category. "Westerners focus outward actions and behavior, they believe that only aggressive, desperate, fast action, and a success are positive qualities, and this 'movement' and 'behavior' orientation help they develop an outward-looking character, the spirit to obtaine from outside world, and the habit of openly express themselves, dare to vent their feelings without cover. "[12] (Zhou yi, Zhi-Hong Xu. Comparison of Chinese and Western cultures [M]. Beijing: People's Education Press, 2004.P30.) In contrast with this, Chinese people will feel uncomfortable even nervous while someone is watching at them.This is because, "in Chinese culture,'Ren' is one of the highest standards of communication and the ultimate purposes, as well as all acts Li Youyi (including communicative behavior) standards, so-called 'Evil, Do not listen to indecent assault, indecent assault not to words, indecent assault and not to move'. And because of the 'other-oriented' and is an excellent Chinese people face, words and deeds to look at other people face, in front of others, if not good deeds, or to leave bad impression to others, there will be a sense of shame. Therefore, the Chinese culture is also often referred to as 'shame culture'. "([13] Jia new. Cross-cultural Communication Science [M]. Shanghai: Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press, 1997.P64.) Precisely because the influence of the 'shame culture',people on the vision would be uncomfortable. This difference appears with the East and West in which the cultural environment are inseparable. "Eastern culture are strong communication environment, culture, and the so-called strong communication culture is people are more sensitive to subtle environmental cues, showing the character implicit, subtle and response characteristics such as little exposed. But, rather, the West belongs to the weak communication environment, culture, and in Weak communication environment, culture, communication in the process of most of the amount of information generated by the dominant code-load, relatively speaking, only a small amount of information is embedded in the hidden environment, manifested in personality explicit, clear The response characteristics of exposure. "(Jia new. Cross-cultural Communication Science [M].Shanghai: Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press, 1997.P64. ) So, the Americans rarely conceal their inner feelings, mind, what feelings, they always will be exposed on the external face. The feelings of the Chinese people are more introverted and prefer to enjoy the happiness of its own or on their own pain, and are not easily shown in public. It should be said, with the Americans, the Chinese people's national character in more of a subtle side.
