4、自然，改造自然中，发展、壮大起来。可以说，古代人类最重要的活动就是征服自然，发展生产。当时的人类的文化受到地理环境的影响。中国位于欧亚大陆的东部，东边是难以逾越的太平洋，西南是有世界屋脊之称的喜马拉雅山，西北是一片大沙漠，可以说中国是相对地与外界隔离。并且中国有大片土地供耕耘，气候也适合农耕，因此中国的文化是农耕文化，其文化偏向土地。而英国，乃至整个西方，适合耕耘的土地少，而且面向地中海，大西洋，适合发展海洋文化。而西方文化的发源地古希腊，更可以被称为是典型的海洋文化，因此，英国的文化更偏向海洋。习语是中西文化中的精华，本篇将列出中西习语中受地理影响的部分。旨在弄清地理环境与文化之间的关系。【
