7、近代以来,亚洲经历了曲折
和艰难的发展历程。亚洲人们为改变自己的命运,始终以不
屈的意志和艰辛的奋斗开辟前进道路。今天,
人们所看到的亚洲发展成就,是勤劳智慧的亚
洲人民不屈不挠、锲而不舍奋斗的结果。亚洲人民深知,世

8、吸烟之危害,可谓大矣,其严重性是不能低估的。吸烟污染空
气,损害健康,使肺癌发
病率大大增加。为了使各国人民关注烟草的盛行及预防吸烟导致的疾病和死亡,
世界卫生组

9、越来越多受英文教育的海
外华人父母,已经认识到孩子在掌握不可或缺的英文的同时,
也通晓中文的重要性。中国的崛起,让他们
充分认识到孩子掌握双语的好处——既能增加他
们的就业机会,也能让他们接触和熟悉东西方两种不同的
文化。这些人对中文的态度几乎没
有完全改变。曾几何时,他们还非常骄傲地宣称自己只懂英文。现在,
他们已开始积极支持
孩子学习中文和中国文化,而且还不时走访中国,欣赏壮观的自然风光,认识丰富的
文化遗
产。
10、我赞同许多东亚学者的观点,东方文明可以医治盛行于西方世界
的一些顽疾。西方世
界个人自由主义泛滥导致了极端个人主义、性关系混乱以及过度暴力行为,对此我们
不能视
而不见。
相反,东方社会的自我约束力,集体责任感以及温厚儒雅的传统倒可以消除西
方社会的许多恶疾。 在这
个信息时代,世界已缩小成一个地球村。这个地球村里,不再
有什么泾渭分明的东方世界和西方世界,我
们是生活在同一个社区里的邻里。 因此,我
们彼此之间无须冲突。我们之间的关系应该是一种友好合作
,平等互补的关系。我们应该相
互理解,相互学习,和睦共处。
11、国际贸易的
基本原则是平等互利,各国追求各自的利益是正常的,出现一些摩擦和纠
纷也是不可避免的。关键要以冷
静而明智的态度正确对待和处理摩擦和纠纷。 就中美贸
易而言,互利共赢的经贸关系给两国人民带来了
实实在在的经济利益。今天,美国在华投资
设立的企业已超过4 万家,投资额达450 亿美元。
美国500 强企业有400 多家进入中国,
大多数企业获利丰厚。与此同时,在美国市场上,许多中
国商品受到美国消费者的青睐。中
国在美国投资设立的企业已超过1000 家。 我们可以预见,中美
贸易摩擦将随着经贸关系
的深化而凸显,但是中美经贸合作的总体发展是不可逆转的。主要有两个原因,
其一:中美
贸易具有很大互补性。其二:中国产品具有明显的劳动力成本优势。

良好的开局。
13、改革开放30 年来,随着中国逐渐崛起成为政治经济强国,海外人士
学习汉语的现象与
日俱增,海外孔子学院也成了人们学习中国语言和中国文化的首选之地。 通过学习汉
语,
他们对这个和自己文化大相径庭的古老文明产生了浓厚的兴趣,而且有机会了解中国的哲

目前在美国最热门的中
国文化是道家学说和有着神秘色彩的风水学。
14、上海菜系是中国最年轻的地方菜系,通
常被成为“本帮菜”,有着400多年的历史。同
中国其他菜系一样,“本帮菜”具有“色,香,味”三
大要素。上海菜的特点是注重调料
的使用,食物的质地和菜的原汁原味。其中最著名的有特色点心“南翔
小笼”和特色菜“松
鼠鲑鱼”。“南翔小笼”是猪肉馅,个小味美,皮薄汁醇。“松鼠鲑鱼”色泽黄亮,
形如
松鼠,外皮脆而内肉嫩,汤汁酸甜适口。在品尝过“松鼠鲑鱼”之后,我们常常惊讶于“松
鼠”的形状,觉得在三大评价标准上在添加“形”这个标准才更合适。
15、美国人强调效
率、竞争和独创性,而中国人则将严谨规划放在首位,鼓励团队成员之
间的密切合作和无私奉献。在美国
学校,讨论享有至高无上的地位,讨论是课堂教学的主
旋律;而中国教师喜欢讲课,喜欢考试,编写千篇
一律的标准教案,培养整齐划一的高材生。
美国人的政治观,经济观以及社会观的核心是个人道德自治观
。中国传统的思想体系是以
儒家学说为基础的,这种思想强调整体和谐。现在,中美联系比以往更加紧密
,中国人学
英语,玩保龄球,吃肯德基,美国人学汉语,练功夫,吃北京烤鸭,《泰坦尼克》驶进中国,
《牡丹亭》也在百老汇上演。
16、武术在我国源远流长,是中华民族传统文化的
瑰宝。我们知道,一个民族的优秀文化
遗产,不仅仅属于一个民族,它会逐渐传播到世界而成为人类的共
同财富。 为了更好的
推广武术运动,使其与奥运项目接轨,中国武协和国际武联做了大量的艰苦卓绝的
工作。现
在武术运动已被列为一种具有与保龄球运动和国际标准舞同等地位的奥运表演项目。武术
的蓬勃发展,除得益于其项目本身的吸引力之外,早期移居海外的一代武术大师功不可没。
老一代武术
家在海外播种下了武术的种子,使武术这门既可以自卫又可以健身的运动很快
就在新的土地上扎下了根。
今天高超的武术大师已遍布世界各地,武术爱好者也与日俱增。

Lion Dance is
one of the most widespread folk dances in China.
The lion is the king
of animals. In Chinese
tradition, the lion is regarded as a mascot, which
can bring good
luck. Ancient people regarded
the lion as a symbol of braveness and strength,
which could
drive away evil and protect
humans. The dance has a recorded history of more
than 2,000
years. During the Tang Dynasty, the
Lion Dance was already introduced into the royal
family of the dynasty. Therefore, performing
the lion dance at the Lantern Festival and
other festive occasions became a custom where
people could pray for good luck, safety
and
happiness.
will develop its economy
further and open itself wider to the outside
world, which
offers more business
opportunities to overseas enterprises. Since
China’s reform and
opening up, Chinese
enterprises have been cooperating with overseas
enterprises in
terms of economy and
technology, and have scored great achievement.
Overseas
enterprises have not only helped
Chinese enterprises with heir growth, but also
benefited
from the cooperation. Chinese
government will continue to offer favorable
policies and
conditions to promote the further
cooperation between Chinese and overseas
enterprises.
phenomenon of holiday
economy shows that Chinese people’s consumption
concept is undertaking great changes.
According to statistics, the demands of Chinese
consumers are shifting from the basic
necessities of life to leisure, comfort and
personal
development. Therefore, the structure
of products should be adjusted accordingly to
adapt
to social development. On the other
hand, services should be improved to satisfy
people’s demand for an improved quality of
life.
Duanwu Festival, also called the
Dragon Boat Festival, is to commemorate the
patriotic poet Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan was a loyal
and highly esteemed minister, who brought
peace and prosperity to the state but ended up
drowning himself in a river as a result of
being vilified. People got to the spot by boat
and cast glutinous dumplings into the water,
hoping that the fishes ate the dumplings
instead of Qu Yuan’s body. For thousands of
years, the festival has been marked by
glutinous dumplings and dragon boat races,
especially in the southern provinces where
there are many rivers and lakes.
June
20, 2013, an estimated 600 thousand school
children and their teachers across
China
watched a science lesson taught from 300km above
the Earth by astronaut Wang
Yaping. Wang is
aboard theTiangong-1 laboratory module with two
crewmates, for a
two-week mission. Her lessons
were a series of physics demonstrations in the
space. In
some demonstrations, she compared
with the same experiment under the one-gravity
environment on Earth. The lesson has not only
offered children a physics lesson with
knowledge and interest, but also shows the
advance in communication technology of
China.
ai is a dynamic, diverse and stimulating
city - the very epitome of modern China.
Though Shanghai cannot rival Beijing in
cultural heritage, its varied architectural styles
5 10
and cosmopolitan feel give it
a charm of its own. Today's Shanghai has become a
world-famous international metropolis. A walk
through this booming city reveals many
glimpses of its colorful past. Hidden amongst
the skyscrapers are remains of the original
Shanghai. They keep on showing how Shanghai
has been developing fast and
enormously since
its opening as a commercial port in the late 19th
century, especially
after the founding of new
China.
modern times, Asia experienced
twists and turns in its development. To change
their
destiny, the people of Asia have been
forging ahead in an indomitable spirit and with
hard
struggle. Asia’s development achievements
today are the result of the persistent efforts
of the industrious and talented Asian people.
The people of Asia are fully aware that there
is no ready model or unchanging path of
development that is universally applicable. They
never shy away from reform and innovation.
Instead, they are committed to exploring and
finding development paths that are in line
with the trend of the times and their own
situations, and have opened up bright
prospects for economic and social development.
g does great harm to human and its
gravity should not be underestimated.
Smoking
pollutes air, damages health, and increases the
incidence of lung cancer. To
arouse the
awareness about the prevalence of tobacco in all
the countries and to prevent
smoking-induced
diseases and deaths, the WHO (World Health
Organization) has defined
May 31stin every
year as World No-Tobacco Day. The tobacco addicts
say that smoking is
impossible to quit because
they could do without meals in a day but would
feel tortured
without tobacco in two hours.
However, when one realizes that smoking is harmful
in
many ways but beneficial in no way and that
it is a curse to others as well as to he himself,
he will be determined to resist the temptation
of tobacco. To quit smoking requires
persistence and so long as one persists, he’ll
be rewarded.
increasing number of
English-educated Chinese parents overseas have
come to the
realization that while English
learning is indispensable to their children, it is
essential that
their kids have a good command
of Chinese. China’s rise has fully awakened their
awareness of the fact that their kids can
benefit from their bilingual ability which can not
only enhance their competitiveness in the job
market, but also facilitate their exposure to
and familiarity with the two different
cultures between the East and the West. They have
hardly changed their attitudes towards
Chinese. At one time they proudly declared that
they knew English only. Now, they have begun
to give full support to their kids learning
Chinese and its culture, and they also make
occasional visits to China, where they can
enjoy its magnificent natural landscape and
get to know its rich cultural heritage.
10.I share the same view with many East Asian
scholars that the Oriental civilization can
heal some of the prevailing, stubborn Western
ills. We should not turn a blind eye to the
fact that individual freedom has gone
overboard in the West, resulting in extreme
individualism, sexual promiscuity and
excessive use of violence. By contrast,
self-
discipline, corporate responsibility and the
pacific tradition of East Asia can offset
many
Western vices. At this age of information, the
world has shrunk as a global village
6 10
in which there will be no clear-cut
worlds of the East and the West any more, but a
world
of one community with neighboring
families. Therefore, we do not necessarily have to
come into clash with each other. Our
relationships one of friendly cooperation,
equality
and mutual complementarily and
therefore, we should understand and learn from
each
other, and live in harmony.
ty
and mutual benefit is the fundamental principle of
international trade.
Therefore, it is normal
that countries will seek to protect their own
interests, which may
lead to trade friction
sand disputes. The key lies in how to cope with
these issues correctly
in a cool and wise
manner. As for China-US trade, mutually beneficial
and win-win trade
and economic ties have
delivered tangible economic benefits to the two
peoples. Now,
with over 40,000 U.S.- invested
enterprises, the total investment in China stands
at $$45
billion. Of the top 500 U.S companies,
more than 400 have their business in China, and
most of them are making handsome profit. At
the same time, many Chinese commodities
have
become favored choices of American consumers.
Meanwhile, the number of
Chinese-invested
enterprises in the United Sates has surpassed
1,000. We predict that
trade disputes between
China and the United States will become more acute
along with
the further development in
bilateral trade and economic cooperation. The
overall
development in bilateral trade and
economic cooperation is, however, irreversible.
There
are two factors contribute to this
trend. Firstly, the Sino-U.S. economic and trade
relations
enjoy complementarities in vast
fields. Secondly, China has an outstanding labor
cost
advantage.
China International
Publishing Group is the largest and the most
authoritative
foreign language publishing and
distribution establishment, its predecessor being
the
International Press Bureau of the Central
People's Government Press and Publication
ng
to the publishing philosophy of “assisting China's
march to the
world and facilitating world's
understanding of China”, the Group commits itself
entirely
to promoting foreign language
education and research in China and advancing
cultural
exchanges between China and foreign
countries. In order to build up a strong team of
publishing staff, as well as to meet the
growing need of more technically demanding
business, the Group makes it a rule that young
staff be selected and sent to noted
universities and research institutions, both
domestic and overseas, for further studies. As
is clearly spelled out in our new development
strategy, we will go beyond our national
boundaries and wedge ourselves into the world
circulation market, aiming at the
international readership. Our initial efforts
have been very rewarding.
China is
rising as a political and economic world power,
thanks to its three-decade
reform and opening
up, more and more people in overseas countries
start to learn
Chinese and turn to a Confucius
Institute in their own countries as their first
choice
learning Chinese language and Chinese
culture. During the learning process, the
learners concurrently develop their interest
in this ancient land, whose civilization is so
vastly different from theirs. And the learners
have opportunities to learn about Chinese
philosophy, art, architecture, medicine and
catering culture and experience first-hand the
7 10
splendors of this venerable
civilization. As the second culture, Chinese
culture has
enriched the life and world
outlook of the learners. This trend, so to speak,
is gathering
momentum and is there to stay.
Apart from their love for Chinese cuisine, more
and more
American learners of Chinese language
are turning to Chinese acupuncture ,herbal
medicines, martial arts. They are also
interested in kongfu films, fashions and crafts.
Seemingly outlandish words such as dim sum,
ginseng, gingko, oolong cha have crept
into
their everyday language. The latest Chinese
cultural icons to make its impact there
are
Taoism, and ancient school of thought, and
fengshui, an ancient art of placement.

cuisine, usually called Ben bang cuisine, is the
youngest among the major
regional cuisines in
China, with a history of more than 400 years. Like
all other Chinese
regional cuisines, Ben bang
cuisines takes “color, aroma and taste” as its
essential
quality ai cuisine emphasizes in
particular the expert use of seasonings,
the
selection of raw materials with quality texture,
and original flavors. Shanghai cuisine is
famous for a special snack known as Nanxiang
Steamed Meat Dumplings and a special
dish
called “Squirrel-Shaped Mandarin Fish”.Nanxiang
Steamed Meat Dumplings are
small in size, with
thin and translucent wrappers, filled inside with
ground pork and rich
tasty soup. Squirrel-
Shaped Mandarin Fish is yellow-colored and
squirrel-shaped, with a
crispy skin and tender
meat, all covered with a sweet and sour tasting
Squirrel-Shaped Mandarin Fish, we are always
amazed by the squirrel shape and think
that it
is more appropriate to plus “appearance” as the
fourth element.

It is a gem of
Chinese traditional culture. As
we all know, the fine culture of a nation doesn't
belong to
the nation alone and it will be
spread to the rest of the world and shared by all
humanity.
The Chinese Wushu Association and
International Wushu Federation (IWUF) have been
working very hard to popularize wushu and make
the Chinese martial art closer to the
Olympic
Movement. Wushu was accepted to join bowling and
international standard
dance as an Olympic
demonstration event. The booming of wushu is
attributed not only
to the attractiveness of
the sport but also to emigrant Chinese wushu
masters over the
years. Martial artists of the
older generations have sown wushu seeds in foreign
8 10
countries. Wushu, which can
be used as self-defense and can keep practitioners
fit and
strong, soon became popular on new
lands. Today superb wushu masters are active all
over the world, and amateurs are on the
increase with each passing day.

landscape and numerous historical sites have

long been the preferred gathering place of
artists and poets.
