culturethat Iwish thatother countrieswould adoptis Respect theOld Love theYoung These twoideas havebeen part of traditionalChinese culturefor thousandsof years but they are more important than ever incontemporary Chinese culture If adoptedby Westerncountries these twotraditional attitudescould helpthem solvesome of their socialproblems One majorproblem in many Westerncountries iswhat todo withold peoplewhen they can nolonger take careof themselves A Chinesefamily willoften havethree generationsof onefamily livingunder the same roof They loveand respectthe oldergeneration and considerthem wise Western peoplebelieve thatliving withone s ownparents isinconvenient andembarrassing Instead of respecting oldpeople some thinkthat they are stupidand ugly When Westernfamilies parents getold they wouldrather sendthem intonursing homesand retirementhomes thanlive togetherwith them Only oldand sickpeople live in theseplaces and they areconsidered depressing in theworst casesthey mightseem likea prisonto theirinhabitants Old peoplein the West wouldbe muchhappier if they adoptedthese traditionalChinese attitudes Juvenile delinquencyis anotherserious socialproblem inWestern cultures Its causescan alsobe tracedback to a lackofrespectfor oldpeople and love foryoung people Children are not taughtto respectthe wishesof theirparents andinstead valuetheir relationshipswith theirfriends more Because inmany Westernfamilies bothparents havejobs outsideof thehome children oftenlack adequatesupervision Chinese families by contrast often haveat leastone parent oragrandparent athome totakecareof and love the children Children withoutproper guidanceandlovefrom a young agemight startto smoke drink use drugs and mitcrimes This oursmuch lessfrequently in China becausepeople paymore attentionto their children andhave thechildren s grandparentsnearby tohelp raisethem The Westputs the Individual before the Family Traditional Chineseculture putsthe interestsof theFamily first and theIndividual second Chinese mothersand fathersplace highervalue on their child s development than on theirchild s independence Children placea highervalue on then parents happiness thanon theirown convenience While there are manyexcellent lessonsthat Chinesepeople can learn fromtheWest Western peoplewould dowell tolearn fromthese essentialChinese traditions 4 Do youagree ordisagree withthe followingstatement Advertising cantell youa lotabout a country Use specificreasons andexamples tosupport youranswer Advertising does not meanto educateor illustrate Primarily it is avehicle forbusiness and it aimsto sellproducts As a result the informationwe cangather fromlooking atadvertisings isquite limited However the culturalideas used to sellmodities reveala society s valuesystem and fromthe natureof theadvertising and the productit aimsto sellwe candraw conclusionsas towhich socialdemography might be the most affluent In orderto bemost effectivean advertisingcampaign will make use of thecultural valuesof acountry Obviously panies willbe able to sell more productsif a great manypeople relateto thegoods andthe imagesusedtosell them For example in acountry likethe UnitedStates wherea greatpercentage of the populationis religious advertisers useexpressions such as heavenly divine or revelation because thesehave connotationsthat prospectivecustomers willlikely identifywith Similarly advertisers willtry toemploy fashionmodels whoembody a culture s idealsof personalbeauty because attractivemen andwomen willsellmoreproducts thanunattractive ones Companies identifysocial demographicsor partsof societythat aremost likely to buytheir productsand designtheir advertisingsaordingly For example teenage girlsaremore likelyto buy mobilephones thanretired factoryworkers Thus panieswillmakeuseoffashion trendsin theirads andprobably payafamouspop singera bigchunk ofmoney toendorse theirproduct If themajority of all advertisingsin acountry aregeared towardsa specifictarget marketor audience then thispartof the populationprobably has the mostfinancial resourcesat theirdisposal Although wecanlearnsome thingsabout acountry bylooking atits advertisingwe have to rememberthat thisknowledge islimited After all advertising isonly directedat people who havethe meanstobuyconsumer goods Thus advertisingdoes nottell usanything aboutthe overallprosperity orlikes anddislikes of acountry Also advertising not only reflectsbut alsotriestoshape andchange culturalvalues Therefore it doesnot auratelyreflect theexact stateof acountry s culture 5 A foreign visitor has only one day to spend inyour country Where shouldthis visitorgo onthat day Why Use specificreasons anddetails tosupport yourchoice China is an enormouscountry with an intenselyvaried landscape If aforeignvisitorwere ingfor just one dayto seeour country it wouldbe difficultto choosejustoneplace tospend the day However I positthat the best placein Chinato visit wouldbeBeijing As thecapital city Beijing offersa diverselook atChina I wouldsuggest that the mainsites to see wouldbe theForbidden City the Great Wall and Tiananmen Square The ForbiddenCity offersthe visitora lookat whatit waslike tolivein historical China The ForbiddenCity islocated in the heartof Beijing and is the biggestpalace plexin the world This particularsite wouldbe ofinterest toa touristbecause it was oncethehomeof manyemperors One cansee theactual roomsfrom whencethe ancientChina wasruled bythe emperors When thevisitor walksthrough thepalace confines he she willsee manyexamples of classic Chinesearchitecture A walkthrough thegardens isparticularly peacefulwith jasmirees abound The GreatWall is also amust see inChina The peopleof Chinahold the GreatWallas havingparticular significanceto theirculture because of itslong history The wall built ofdirt stone andbrick was usedas adefense barrieragainst invadingnomads andwandering tribes This is the largestengineering andbuilding projectever carriedout byhumans Its historicand strategicimportance ismatched onlyby itsarchitectural significance Finally Tiananmen Squareshouldbeon thelist ofthings tosee whilevisiting Beijing This squareis one of thelargest inChina and possiblyin Asia At thissquare one canvisit theChairman MaoMemorial Hall one of the greatestleaders everinChina The ChineseRevolutionary MuseumandtheChinese HistoryMuseum standto theeast ofthe square theGreatHall ofthe Peopleto thewest andthe magnificentTiananmen Towerto thenorth As thevisitor willsee there arenumerous interestingexhibits atTiananmenSquarethat offerup a variety ofChinese heritage Of course it is very difficultto nameone cityinChinaover allothers as the place to visit China is the host to such a widevariety ofbeautiful places and avisitor reallyshould spendmuch moretime exploringthem all However with onlyoneday I believethat Beijingisthebest placeto visit 6 Do youagree ordisagree withthe followingstatement Dancing playsan importantrole in aculture Use specificreasons andexamples tosupport youranswer There area number of qualitiesthat havealways beenpresent incultures recent or ancient These qualitiescan be anything fromart formsto culturallygained knowledge These qualitiesmake the culture unique and allowthecultureto offersomething interestingto theworld Throughout history dancing hasalways playedsuch arole incultures This is because danceallows us to expressemotion preserve heritage and entertain Dancing hasalways helda highposition inculture as it is an excellent wayof expressingemotion Much likethe painterusing colorto conveyemotion dancers canuse theirbody asa toolto showthe onlookertheir happiness sadness pain etc Dancing is also an excellent methodof retainingand preservingculture Many cultureshave danceas partof theirceremonies whether theceremony isreligious orpatriotic inform For example it is a widelypracticed normto havepeople danceout

It mightbe explainedthat differentdresses givepeople differentself images and mostpeople subconsciouslybehave aording to theirown self images Equally sensibleis anotherfactor that is all toooften peopleregard a person differentlyaordingtohis her dresses Therefore people mightbehavedifferentlywhen theyweardifferentclothes becausethey aretreated differently Also appropriate dressesdo help a

parvenuon theother hand will finallyfind outthe fact that hisexorbitantly deardresses isof nouse tomake himselfa gentleman and heeven eventuallyfail tomake himlook likea gentleman Maybe thoseare
