Different Cultures
The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish themselves from each other a lot. .
The origin of the Eastern culture is mainly from two countries: China and India. Both of the two cultures are developed by rivers — the Yellow River in China and the Indus River in India.
When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture, another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian plain (美索不达米亚平原) —the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Rome and Ancient Greek. Like the Chinese culture, the European culture also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over the Atlantic Ocean. So the American culture doesn't distinguish itself from the European culture a lot.
Take the language system for example. In the East, most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system. Other causes like human race differences count as well. But what's more, due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and the West, the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no interference (干预) from the other.
The differences are everywhere. But different cultures make the world in the 21st century more varied. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle to the civilization of human beings. It ought to be the motivation for our going farther.
A. Let us work together to keep a variety of cultures.
B. One important thing is to learn about the other's culture.
C. And these two are well-known as the base of the European culture.
D. This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.
E. They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.
F. They are obvious and affect people's ways of thinking and their views of the world.
G. At the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences.
