The Misunderstanding In Culture 文化誤解

Since I go to high school, I am so excited about English class, because we have a foreign teacher, whose name is Paul. Paul likes to share funny things about how foreigners think about China. The way he talks makes us laugh out loudly. I learn that a lot of foreigners misunderstand our culture. Before they come to China, all they learn about this big country is from media. The media always report the negative sides, such as woman has low status, and Chinese people eat all kinds of animals. When they come to China, what they see is very different. This country is not that poor and people here are very friendly. Foreign people misunderstand our culture, and this situation happens all the time. Of course, we also will misread their culture. It is important to have real communication, so as to get further understanding.

自從我上高中后，我就對英語課很感興趣，因為我們有一個外國老師，他的名字叫保羅。保羅喜歡分享外國人如何看待中國的有趣事情。他說話的方式總是讓我們大聲笑出來。我知道很多外國人誤解我們的文化。在他們來中國之前，他們對這個大國的了解僅來自媒體。媒體總是報道負面的消息，如女性地位低，吃各種各樣的動物。當他們來到中國后，他們所看到的卻是很不一樣的。這個國家沒有他們想象中的那么貧窮，人們也很友好。外國人們誤解我們的文化，這種情況是時常發生的，當然，我們也會誤解他們的文化。真正的溝通是很重要的，這樣才能都得到進一步的理解。
