Different Country has Different Characteristic of Movie

不同的国家有不同的文化的国家英语作文Different countries have different cultures. This is a well-known fact that has been recognized by people all over the world. Each country has its own unique traditions, customs, and ways of life that have been passed down from generation to generation. These cultural differences can be seen in various aspects of a country, such as its language, food, music, art, and even the way people interact with one another.One of the most obvious cultural differences between countries is the language. Every country has its own official language or languages that are spoken by the majority of its population. These languages can be vastly different from one another, with unique grammar structures, vocabulary, and pronunciation. For example, the Chinese language is vastly different from the English language, with its own writing system and tonal nature. Similarly, the Arabic language, which is spoken in many Middle Eastern countries, has a completely different alphabet and grammatical structure compared to the English language.Another cultural difference that can be observed between countries is the cuisine. Each country has its own unique culinary traditions anddishes that have been developed over centuries. For instance, the food in India is vastly different from the food in Italy, with the former being characterized by the use of spices and the latter being known for its use of olive oil and fresh herbs. Similarly, the cuisine in Japan, with its emphasis on sushi and sashimi, is vastly different from the cuisine in Mexico, which is known for its use of chili peppers and tortillas.In addition to language and food, cultural differences can also be seen in the way people interact with one another. In some countries, people may be more reserved and formal in their interactions, while in others, they may be more outgoing and casual. For example, in Japan, it is common for people to bow when greeting one another, while in the United States, a handshake is more common. Similarly, the way people dress can also be a reflection of cultural differences, with some countries having more formal dress codes than others.Another aspect of cultural difference that is often overlooked is the way people perceive and interact with the natural world. In some cultures, there is a deep respect and reverence for the environment, while in others, there may be a more utilitarian approach to the use of natural resources. For instance, in many indigenous cultures, the land is seen as a sacred entity that must be protected and preserved, while in other cultures, the focus may be more on the exploitation of natural resources for economic gain.Finally, cultural differences can also be seen in the way people approach various aspects of life, such as education, religion, and politics. In some countries, there may be a strong emphasis on traditional forms of education, while in others, there may be a more progressive approach that emphasizes critical thinking and innovation. Similarly, the role of religion in a country's culture can vary greatly, with some countries being highly religious and others being more secular.In conclusion, the cultural differences between countries are vast and multifaceted. From language and food to the way people interact with one another and the natural world, each country has its own unique cultural identity that sets it apart from others. Understanding and appreciating these cultural differences is essential for fostering greater cross-cultural understanding and cooperation in an increasingly globalized world.。

Different countries have different cultures，which cause some misunderstanding. Here is just one example of it. In many countries，people will tell you what they think you want to hear，whether or not it is 1 . To them，this is the 2 thing to do Americans，though，it is considered confusing，even 3 ，to avoid telling the true facts. Even when avoiding the truth is done only to be polite，it 4 no difference. In America，this would still be considered the wrong thing to do. It is helpful to 5 that different cultures consider some matters more important than others. For Americans， 6 and truth are most important. One of the 7 things that can be said about someone in America is that“you cannot trust him. ”8 such differences in values among the many cultures of the world，we come to knowa certain truth. We realize it is natural misunderstandings will 9 . “How far is it to the next town?”an American traveler asks a man standing by the 10 of a road. In some countries，a man may realize the traveler is tired and 11 to reach the next village. 12 ，he will politely say，“Just down the road. ”He thinks this is more 13 ，gentler，and therefore the answer the traveler wants to hear. So the American drives alone for many more hours 14 he comes to the village. The traveler is angry，feeling 15 . He thinks that the man has purposely 16 to him. The man must have known quite well what the 1 7 was，the American traveler thinks.If a visitor to the United States asked an American standing at the edge of a road how far the next town was, the American would think it dishonest if he said it was near 18 he knew it was actually 24 miles away. 19 he，too，would be sympathetic with the tired traveler，he would say，“You have a long way to go yet；it at least 24 miles more. ”The traveler might be disappointed，but he would know what to 20 In this case，there would be no misunderstanding.1.

D Passage lIn the future, marketing one drug to all people with the same symptoms may seem as silly as opening a shoe store that sells one size of shoes.But one-size-fits-all medications are precisely what the big drug companies are selling today. And why not? A single big seller, such as Prilosec or Lipitor. can earn a pharmaceutical(药学的)firm billions of dollars. Well, that familiar world is about to change. Breakthrough research on the human genome(基因组)--which promises to explain genetic differences among people so that drugs can be fine tuned to work better with fewer side effects--may mean the slow demise(终止)ofthe drug industry blockbuster(兴隆).The reason?“Blockbusters don’t work for everybody, ”says Jorge Leon. Genomics director at Quest Diagnostics. Scientists have long known that many drugs don’t work for 30 percent to 60 percent of the people for whom they are prescribed--or may even harm them. Now, research is revealing the reasons why that’s so. For example. new genetic tests could show that a third of patients taking a top hypertension(高血压)or cholesterol(胆固醇)一lowering drug would be better off on another product.Anxiety.“That’s a frightening concept to a pharmaceutical company. ”says Michael. “Personalizing treatments could cut into the sales of drugs that fuel today, s profits. ”Over time, some experts believe, the revelation that one drug doesn’t cure all will almost certainly force industry wide change, revamping(改进)everything from clinical trials to sales efforts.Giant drug companies financially are struggling to decide whether to be against that change or embrace it. On the one hand, companies are putting money in the hot new field of pharmacogenomics to figure out which drugs do and don’t work on specific individuals. But they are mostly mining that research to develop new drugs, not to figure out who should really be taking the drugs already on the market. “The scientists want to learn who can best benefit from existing drugs, while the sales and marketing people want to protect the cash cows. ”says Leon.1. The author thinks that in the future .A. all drug companies will be producing the same drugs for all peopleB. people with the same symptoms might be taking different drugsC. people might have similar symptoms because of the drugs they useD. drug companies might be producing products other than drugs2. The drug companies dislike the new way of drug production and sales because .A. they might lose moneyB. they might lose customersC. they might lose recognitionD. they might break the law3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Drug companies care more about patients than profits.B. Scientists want the patients to benefit from existing drugs.C. Drug companies pay scientists a lot to develop new drugs. ,D. New drugs give patients new hopes for getting better.4. Why does the author mention the shoe store in the first paragraph?A. Because shoes will be sold with drugs in the future.B. Because drugs will have as large a market as shoes in the future.C. Because shoes are as foolishly sold as drugs are today.D. To illustrate the poor marketing of drugs today.5. Which of the following is probably the best title for the passage?A. What’s Best for Patients Isn’t Always Best for Profits.B. Patients Are Dying from Taking Different Drugs.C. New Business Styles in Drug Companies.D. Drug Companies with New Drug Sales Styles.l. B 2.A 3.B 4.D 5.AUnit 3Passage lFifteen-year-old freshman Charles“Andy”Williams,who is being held in the shooting in California that left two students dead and 13 wounded, was reportedly the butt of jokes, a weekend drinker and one who hung out at a local skate park with kids who did drugs. Had he and his peers received meaningful instruction in“character formation”. there’s a good chance their sense of respect for themselves and others would have held back the ridiculing and created a better atmosphere.Many youngsters have a difficult time seeing any moral dimension to their actions. Consequently, schools stress academic achievement but don’t always identify and reinforce the habits that students need to become virtuous.But there’s hope. More and more schools, from the rich suburbs to the inner cities, are realizing that good test scores aren’t enough if students aren’t taught to be responsible members ofsociety.I wove character education into my lessons as a third-grade teacher at Disney Elementary in Burbank, California. We had a“virtue of the month”,and each day after lunch, my class read a story demonstrating that virtue. The lessons produced academic benefits, too. After reading Aesop’s The Tortoise and the Hare, one student who was having trouble learning multiplication raised his hand and said：“Learning the times tables is really hard, but I know I need to persevere. ”High expectations for good behavior also have helped students academically at Cleveland Elementary, the Washington school that holds the weekly classes. Last year, it scored in the 70th percentile in reading on the Stanford-9, a national achievement test, and in the 86th percentile in math--well above the average for many prosperous suburbs.We can’t afford to lose any more children to actions that spring from moral ignorance. Parents and schools must provide children with a strong academic foundation, but they need to teach them common values as well. Virtue is a lesson that ladies and gentlemen in all schools can—and must—learn now.1. According to Paragraph 1, Charles“Andy”Williams is .A. supported in the shootingB. controlled as he got woundedC. delayed so that he cannot leaveD. kept so that he cannot leave2. Many youngsters have a difficult time because .A. they fail to apply moral principle to their behaviorB. they can’t play moral tricks on othersC. they fail to create a moral atmosphereD. they are about to see some immoral behavior3. What do“times tables” (underlined in Paragraph 4) probably mean?A. A list of the results of multiplying one number by other numbers.B. A list of the times when classes in school happen.C. A list of the times when events are planned.D. A list of things to be finished by hours.4. The higher marks in reading and math of the students in Cleveland Elementary show that .A. rich neighborhoods helped students make academic progressB. academic achievement could result from character educationC. the “virtue of the month”project was the key to academic benefitsD. students benefited a great deal from story-telling activities5. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer is .A. a child of a third-grade teacherB. a parent of a school childC. a teacher in a primary schoolD. a teacher of moral lessonsl. D 2.A 3.A 4.B 5.CBy the mid-nineteenth century, the term "icebox" had entered the American language, but ice was still only beginning to affect the diet of ordinary citizens in the United States. The ice trade grew with the growth of cities. Ice was used in hotels, taverns, and hospitals, and by some forward-looking city dealers in fresh meat, fresh fish, and butter. After the Civil War (1861-1865), as ice was used to refrigerate freight cars, it also came into household use. Even before 1880, half the ice sold in New Y ork, Philadelphia, and Balt imore, and one-third of that sold in Boston and Chicago, went to families for their own use. This had become possible because a new household convenience, the icebox, a precursor of the modern refrigerator, had been invented.Making an efficient icebox was not as easy as we might now suppose. In the early nineteenth century, the knowledge of the physics of heat, which was essential to a science of refrigeration, was rudimentary. The commonsense notion that the best icebox was one that prevented the ice from melting was of course mistaken, for it was the melting of the ice that performed the cooling. Nevertheless, early efforts to economize ice inc luded wrapping the ice in blankets, which kept the ice from doing its job. Not until near the end of the nineteenth century did inventors achieve thedelicate balance of insulation and circulation needed for an efficient icebox.But as early as 1803, an ingenious Maryland farmer, Thomas Moore, had been on the right track. He owned a farm about twenty miles outside the city of Washington, for which the village of Georgetown was the market center. When he used an icebox of his own design to transport his butter to market, he found that customers would pass up the rapidly melting stuff in the tubs of his competitors to pay a premium price for his butter, still fresh and hard in neat, one-pound bricks. One advantage of his icebox, Moore explained, was that farmers would no longer have to travel to market at night in order to keep their produce cool.1. What does the passage mainly discuss?(A) The influence of ice on the diet(B) The development of refrigeration(C) The transportation of goods to market(D) Sources of ice in the nineteenth century2. According to the passage , when did the word "icebox" become part of the language of the United States?(A) in 1803(B) sometime before 1850(C) during the civil war(D) near the end of the nineteenth century3.

According to the passage , Moore's icebox allowed him to(A) charge more for his butter(B) travel to market at night(C) manufacture butter more quickly(D) produce ice all year round11. The "produce" mentioned in line 25 could include(A) iceboxes(B) butter(C) ice(D) marketsPASSAGE 1 BBACC DBCDA BPASSAGE 2The geology of the Earth's surface is dominated by the particular properties of water. Present on Earth in solid, liquid, and gaseous states, water is exceptionally reactive. It dissolves, transports, and precipitates many chemical compounds and is constantly modifying the face of the Earth.Evaporated from the oceans, water vapor forms clouds, some of which are transported by wind over the continents. Condensation from the clouds provides the essential agent of continental erosion: rain. Precipitated onto the ground, the water trickles down to form brooks, streams, and rivers, constituting what are called the hydrographic network. This immense polarized network channels the water toward a single receptacle: an ocean. Gravity dominates this entire step in thecycle because water tends to minimize its potential energy by running from high altitudes toward the reference point, that is, sea level.The rate at which a molecule of water passes though the cycle is not random but is a measure of the relative size of the various reservoirs. If we define residence time as the average time for a water molecule to pass through one of the three reservoirs — atmosphere, continent, and ocean —we see that the times are very different. A water molecule stays, on average, eleven days in the atmosphere, one hundred years on a continent and forty thousand years in the ocean. This last figure shows the importance of the ocean as the principal reservoir of the hydrosphere but also the rapidity of water transport on the continents.A vast chemical separation process takes places during the flow of water over the continents. Soluble ions such as calcium, sodium, potassium, and some magnesium are dissolved and transported. Insoluble ions such as aluminum, iron, and silicon stay where they are and form the thin, fertile skin of soil on which vegetation can grow. Sometimes soils are destroyed and transported mechanically during flooding. The erosion of the continents thus results from two closely linked and interdependent processes, chemical erosion and mechanical erosion. Their respective interactions and efficiency depend on different factors.1. The word "modifying" in line 4 is closest in meaning to(A) changing(B) traveling(C) describing(D) destroying2. The word "which" in line 5 refers to(A) clouds(B) oceans(C) continents(D) compounds3.

The passage suggests that the purpose of the "hydrographic network" (line 8) is to(A) determine the size of molecules of water(B) prevent soil erosion caused by flooding(C) move water from the Earth's surface to the oceans(D) regulate the rate of water flow from streams and rivers5. What determines the rate at which a molecule of water moves through the cycle, as discussed in the third paragraph?(A) The potential energy contained in water(B) The effects of atmospheric pressure on chemical compounds(C) The amounts of rainfall that fall on the continents(D) The relative size of the water storage areas6. The word "rapidity" in line 19 is closest in meaning to(A) significance(B) method(C) swiftness(D) reliability7.

不同的国家有不同的文化英语作文Different Countries, Different CulturesCulture is what defines a country and its people. It encompasses all aspects of life – food, clothing, language, traditions, beliefs, and values. Just as every individual is unique, every country has its own unique culture that sets it apart from others. In this article, we will explore the diversity of cultures around the world and how they shape the identities of their respective countries.One of the most obvious differences in cultures around the world is language. Each country has its own language, or in some cases, multiple languages. For example, China has Mandarin as its official language, while India has Hindi. In Europe, countries like France, Germany, and Italy each have their own language. Language is not just a means of communication, but also a reflection of a country’s history, values, and traditions.Food is another important aspect of culture. Different countries have different cuisines that are influenced by factors such as climate, geography, and history. For example, in countries like Italy and France, pasta and cheese are popular staples, while in countries like Japan and Thailand, rice andseafood are common ingredients. Food is not just nourishment, but also a way of preserving traditions and passing on cultural heritage.Clothing is also an important part of culture. Traditional clothing in countries like India, Japan, and Africa is often bright and colorful, reflecting the vibrant cultures of these countries. In contrast, countries like England and the United States tend to favor more subdued and practical clothing. Clothing is not just about aesthetics, but also about identity and belonging.Traditions and customs vary widely from country to country. For example, in Japan, it is customary to bow when greeting someone, while in countries like Italy and Spain, it is common to kiss on the cheek. In India, it is tradition to celebrate festivals like Diwali and Holi with family and friends, while in America, holidays like Thanksgiving and Independence Day are celebrated with parades and fireworks. Traditions and customs are a way of connecting people to their past and preserving their cultural heritage.Religion also plays a significant role in shaping a country’s culture. Countries like Saudi Arabia, Iran, and India have strong religious traditions that influence every aspect of life, from daily rituals to social norms. In contrast, countries like Sweden andNorway have a more secular approach to religion, with fewer religious practices and traditions. Religion is not just a belief system, but also a way of life that informs people’s values and behavior.Despite these differences, there are also many similarities in cultures around the world. For example, the value of family is universal – people in every country prioritize their relationships with family members and seek to create strong bonds with them. Similarly, the importance of education is recognized in every culture, as people understand the role of education in shaping the future of individuals and society.In conclusion, culture is what makes each country unique and special. By embracing and celebrating the diversity of cultures around the world, we can learn from each other, broaden our perspectives, and build stronger connections with people from different backgrounds. Whether we are exploring the cuisine of a new country, learning a new language, or participating in a cultural festival, we are enriching our lives and expanding our understanding of the world. Let us continue to celebrate the richness and diversity of cultures around the world, for it is this diversity that makes our world a vibrant and dynamic place to live.。

不同的国家有不同的风俗英文作文Different countries have different customs. Each country has its own unique culture and traditions that have been passed down through generations. These customs and traditions shape the way people live, interact, and view the world around them.One of the most obvious differences between countries is the way people dress. In some countries, traditional clothing is still worn on a daily basis, while in others, it is only worn for special occasions. For example, in India, women often wear colorful saris, while in Japan, kimono are a common sight. These traditional garments are not only beautiful, but they also hold deep cultural significance.Another significant difference between countries is the food they eat. Each region has its own distinct cuisine, which is influenced by the available ingredients, climate, and cultural traditions. In some countries, the staple diet may consist of rice or bread, while in others, it may be more meat-based. For instance, in Italy, pasta is a central part of the cuisine, while in Thailand, curries and stir-fries are more common.Religion is another aspect of culture that varies greatly betweencountries. Some nations are predominantly Christian, while others may be predominantly Muslim, Hindu, or Buddhist. These religious beliefs shape the way people live their lives, including their customs, rituals, and holidays. For example, in the Middle East, the Islamic call to prayer can be heard several times a day, while in India, the sound of temple bells and chants are a common part of everyday life.Family structures and social customs also differ significantly between countries. In some cultures, the extended family is highly valued, and multiple generations may live together. In others, the nuclear family is more common. Additionally, the way people interact with one another, such as greetings, etiquette, and personal space, can vary greatly across cultures.One of the most fascinating aspects of cultural differences is the way they are expressed through art, music, and literature. Each country has its own unique artistic traditions, ranging from traditional dance and music to intricate handicrafts and architecture. For instance, the vibrant colors and intricate patterns found in Indian textiles are a testament to the country's rich artistic heritage.Furthermore, the way people celebrate and commemorate important events can also vary greatly between countries. Festivals, holidays, and ceremonies are often deeply rooted in cultural and religious traditions. For example, in China, the Lunar New Year is celebratedwith elaborate parades, fireworks, and family gatherings, while in Mexico, the Day of the Dead is a time to honor and remember loved ones who have passed away.In conclusion, the diversity of customs and traditions around the world is a testament to the richness and complexity of human culture. By understanding and appreciating these differences, we can gain a deeper appreciation for the unique perspectives and experiences of people from different parts of the globe. Embracing cultural diversity not only broadens our understanding of the world but also enriches our own lives and experiences.。
