Chinese Culture

While China is almost the same size as the US in area, it is home to about 1.3 billion people. It has a special culture with a very long history.

Chinese Food

Food plays an important role for Chinese families. Different foods have special meanings. The most obvious(明顯的) difference is that Chinese people eat their meals with chopsticks. One of the main foods in Chinese culture is rice. Tea is a favorite drink and it is popular in the market.

Chinese New Year

The Chinese calendar(日歷) is called a lunar(陰歷的) calendar. It is not the same as the one used in the US. New Year’s Day is in late winter. It is also called the Spring Festival. It has a big celebration of letting go of the old and bringing in the new. It has special foods and traditions. For example, sweeping the floor before New Year’s Day sweeps away all the old year’s bad luck.

Chinese Zodiac(生肖)

The Chinese zodiac, known as Sheng Xiao, follows a twelve-year cycle(循環(huán)). Each year is named for an animal. These animal signs are the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. For example, the year that begins in 2016 is the Year of the Monkey.

Chinese Language

Chinese is a complex(復(fù)雜的) language. Chinese writing developed almost 4,000 years ago and may even be older. Chinese writing has thousands of characters. A character represents(代表) a word and also a meaning. Unlike English, there are no spaces in Chinese writing.

【題目】English is an excellent language to learn. It is important for study, business and travel. Read the information below and learn more about listening and reading skills.

Listen to English radio.

One of the best ways to improve your English listening is to listen to English radio on your mobile phone.

You should listen to the radio shows for more than 30 minutes every day.

Try to understand what is said. Don’t just let the English wash over you. If you find the listening too fast, try to pick out the key words to get a general idea of it.

You can also make a note of any words or phrases(短語(yǔ)) that you don’t understand. Look them up in the dictionary later. Then listen to the show again.

Watch English movies and TV shows.

Another fun way to improve your listening is to watch English movies and TV shows.

Try to choose movies or TV shows that you will enjoy. This will make the listening more interesting. When you like the movie or TV show, you may forget your task is to practice listening. You just enjoy it.

However, you should not watch movies or TV shows with Chinese translations(翻譯) on the screen. It will be difficult for you to focus on English.

Read an English book, newspaper or magazine(雜志).

Reading is an important part of learning a language, so don’t forget to practice!

Choose a book that you are really interested in. It can be an English novel or a magazine. Then start working your way through it. If you find it boring, it’s difficult for you to finish reading it.

Again, try to understand what you’re reading. Pick out any words or phrases that you don’t understand. Then look them up in the dictionary.

Learning any language requires hard work and skills, so find good methods and work hard.
