经济合作与发展组织礼拜三报告说，工业化国家的失业率仍在增添，

并且有可能在明年达到近10%的历史最高水平，只管不停有报导说，好多工业化国家正在走出几十年来最严重的经济危机。

关于下个礼拜到美国列席20国公司峰会的各国领导人来说，失业率连续上涨真是个坏信息。

总部设在巴黎的经合组织说，工业化国家

的失业率已经在今年7月份达到8.5%的最高水平。

经合组织就业剖析和政策部主任斯蒂芬.斯卡皮塔（stephanscarpetta）指出，经合组织30个成员国中的失业人数估计在明年将进一步爬升，达到靠近10%的水平。

也就是说，工业化国家总合会有5千7百万人失掉工作。

“不幸的是，只管近来绝大部分指标都显示，经济复苏可能已经出现，比我们几个月前的预期有所提早，可是此次复苏可能需要更长的时间才能转变成劳工市场的明显改良。

员中失业率上涨最快的国家。

这三个国家都遇到高昂的房地产价钱狂跌的影响。

并且房地产市场崩溃所造成的损坏扩散到了经济的其余领域。

斯卡皮塔指出，年青人遇到的冲击最大。

比方在西班牙，三分之一以上的年青人找不到工作。

州的匹兹堡开会议论金融和经济危机的时候，至关重要的是，他们需要关注此次危机对社会的影响，特别是失业问题。

各国已经快速和坚决地采

取了行动。

他们经济刺激计划的一部分就是在劳工市场和社会政策方面供给更多的资源。

可问题是，各国政府固然扩大和延伸了失业补助的发放，并且供给了更多的就业咨询和

培训，可是这些举措并无追上失业人口的增添。

斯卡皮塔表示，各国所以而需要更有选择性地分派资源，以保证劳工队伍中最为柔弱的集体能够获得帮助。

中西方节日文化差别比较

aholidayofanationrepresentsagloriouscultureandconcentratedcustomsofanation.

传统的民族节日形成是一个民族的历史文化的长远积淀。

节日的由

来原由与人们的生活有亲密的联系,它表现了人民丰富的感情世界,寄望了人民对生活的热爱。

有这样一句名言:

“每个民族的每个节日,正是反应这个民族文化最真切的一面”。

可见,要认识一个民族的文化底蕴,一定从他们的传统节日下手,才能认识到他们的文化特点与民族特点。

一、中西节日的发源与形成差别

中国长远以来处于封建自给自足的农业社会和自然经济中,其传统节日拥有浓重的农业色彩,包括了农耕文明的社会特点,主假如从岁节气令变换而来的。

我国古代长远以农为本,在生产力和农业技术不发达的状况下,十分重视天气对农作物的影响。

在春种、夏长、秋收、冬

藏的过程中认识了自然时序的复杂规律,总结出四时、二十四节气,

形成了以节日为主的传统节日。

勤奋的中国人民为了更好地生计,一定鼎力发展农业,而农业的发展离不开天气的关照。

先人云“春雨贵如油”、“清明忙种麦,谷雨种大田”。

在古代,春节、清明节等都是重要的农事节日。

西方文化因为长远受基督教的影响,其传统节日发源带有浓重的宗教

色彩,如情人节（纪念名叫瓦丁的基督教殉难者）、复生节（基督教纪

念耶稣复生）、万圣节（纪念教会全部贤人）、圣诞节（基督教纪念耶稣

出生），这些节日的发源大多与宗教相关系。

自然,西方节日中也有和农业相关的节日,但他们以农业为主的节日的历史不如中国漫长。

二、中西节日庆贺方式差别

中国的传统节日,基本是封建社会期间形成的,不行防止地留下封建社会的印迹:

等级制、家族式,节日无不以家族内部活动为中心。

西方的传统节日就不一样了,更多的是表现出人们的互动性、集体性和狂欢

性,以自我为中心,崇尚个性张扬。

这与中国节日的家族性恰巧相反,表现了西方文化的集体性,反应了人们盼望相互沟通、集体参加的梦想,表现了人人同等、自由表现自我的特点。

这里试举两例说明。
