8、riggering an outpouring of grief among her legions of fans in Asia and elsewhere. During her brilliant stage career, favored by fans all over Asia, she moved millions of people.

13、dren. And these activities are supported by her fans all over the world.3. Describe a custom from your country that you would like people from other countries to adopt. Explain your choice, using specific reasons and examples.My favorite custom from Chinese culture that I wish that other countries w

14、ould adopt is Respect the Old, Love the Young. These two ideas have been part of traditional Chinese culture for thousands of years, but they are more important than ever in contemporary Chinese culture. If adopted by Western countries, these two traditional attitudes could help them solve some of t

15、heir social problems. One major problem in many Western countries is what to do with old people when they can no longer take careof themselves. A Chinese family will often have three generations of one family living under the same roof. They love and respect the older generation, and consider them w

16、ise. Western people believe that living with ones own parents is inconvenient and embarrassing. Instead of respecting old people, some think that they are stupid and ugly. When Western families parents get old, they would rather send them into nursing homes and retirement homes than live together wi

17、th them. Only old and sick people live in these places and they are considered depressing, in the worst cases they might seem like a prison to their inhabitants. Old people in the West would be much happier if they adopted these traditional Chinese attitudes.Juvenile delinquency is another serious s

18、ocial problem in Western cultures. Its causes can also be traced back to a lack of respect for old people and love for young people. Children are not taught to respect the wishes of their parents and instead value their relationships with their friends more. Because in many Western families both par

19、ents have jobs outside of the home, children often lack adequate supervision. Chinese families, by contrast, often have at least one parent, or a grandparent at home to take care of and love the children. Children without proper guidance and love from a young age might start to smoke, drink, use dru

20、gs, and commit crimes. This occurs much less frequently in China because people pay more attention to their children and have the childrens grandparents nearby to help raise them. The West puts the Individual before the Family. Traditional Chinese culture puts the interests of the Family first, and

21、the Individual second. Chinese mothers and fathers place higher value on their childs development, than on their childs independence. Children place a higher value on then-parents happiness than on their own convenience. While there are many excellent lessons that Chinese people can learn from the W

22、est, Western people would do well to learn from these essential Chinese traditions.4. Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Advertising can tell you a lot about a country. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.Advertising does not mean to educate or illustrate. Pr

23、imarily it is a vehicle for business and it aims to sell products. As a result, the information we can gather from looking at advertisings is quite limited. However, the cultural ideas used to sell commodities reveal a societys value system, and from the nature of the advertising and the product it

24、aims to sell we can draw conclusions as to which social demography might be the most affluent. In order to be most effective an advertising campaign will make use of the cultural values of a country. Obviously, companies will be able to sell more products if a great many people relate to the goods a

25、nd the images used to sell them. For example, in a country like the United States where a great percentage of the population is religious, advertisers use expressions such as heavenly, divine, or revelation, because these have connotations that prospective customers will likely identify with.Similar

26、ly, advertisers will try to employ fashionmodels who embody a cultures ideals of personal beauty, because attractive men and women will sell more products than unattractive ones.Companies identify social demographics or parts of society that are most likely to buy their products and design their adv

27、ertisings accordingly. For example, teenage girls are more likely to buy mobile phones than retired factory workers. Thus companies will make use of fashion trends in their ads and probably pay a famous pop singer a big chunk of money to endorse their product. If the majority of all advertisings in

28、a country are geared towards a specific target market or audience, then this part of the population probably has the most financial resources at their disposal. Although we can learn some things about a country by looking at its advertising we have to remember that this knowledge is limited. After a

29、ll, advertising is only directed at people who have the means to buy consumer goods. Thus advertising does not tell us anything about the overall prosperity or likes and dislikes of a country. Also, advertising not only reflects but also tries to shape and change cultural values. Therefore, it does

30、not accurately reflect the exact state of a countrys culture.5. A foreign visitor has only one day to spend in your country. Where should this visitor go on that day? Why? Use specific reasons and details to support your choice.China is an enormous country with an intensely varied landscape. If a fo

31、reign visitor were coming for just one day to see our country, it would be difficult to choose just one place to spend the day. However, I posit that the best place in China to visit would be Beijing. As the capital city, Beijing offers a diverse look at China. I would suggest that the main sites to

32、 see would be the Forbidden City, the Great Wall, and Tiananmen Square. The Forbidden City offers the visitor a look at what it was like to live in historical China. The Forbidden City is located in the heart of Beijing, and is the biggest palace complex in the world. This particular site would be o

33、f interest to a tourist because it was once the home of many emperors. One can see the actual rooms from whence the ancient China was ruled by the emperors. When the visitor walks through the palace confines, he/she will see many examples of classic Chinese architecture. A walk through the gardens is particu
