To see how foreigners look on us ChineseIf you are a Chinese, please take some minutes to read the passage below.
If you have any problem on comprehension, leave me a message or send me a E-mail.
Thanks.
(Quilt the forum of English Learning)
Opinion 1:
I have been living in China for three years, Chinese people are generally gentle and friendly. Chinese girls are the most beautiful girls with the softest skin, shapely figure and generally hard working attitude.
How ever, I have been used by Chinese people. I am an English teacher from the U'K. and Chinese parents, and fellow colleagues have invited me for meals under the guise of friendship when the real intention is to speak english with their son or daughter. As a result, I feel like a machine and feel terrible. I'm bombarded with questions. Another aspect of Chinese life is 'Guanxi' this means connections. Generally, the Chinese system is corrupt, it's a matter of who you know and how much you can pay. I'm sure this happens in many countries, but here it's particularly rampant. On the whole, Chinese people speak from the heart and not the head, they are a spiritual people. For 2,500 years the law of Confucious was the nation's guide, this taught people how to be a 'good citizen' . Then when Mao ze dong, deng xiao ping, Zhou en lai, ect, took over one can see a demise of a civilization. Mao obliterated Zhongguo culture. This dictator was responsible for a famine in the mid- 60's which led to cannibalism. (read Jung Chang's Wild Swans). Today, the CPPCC are all business graduates, the country is geared towards science and technology, the intellectuals don't really exist. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Opinion 2:
I can tell you about what I have observed in my country, Chinese groups of inmigrants have
arrived during the last 15 years. They are absolute unknown people to us, because they don´t mix much with the rest of the spanish citizens.They rule their restaurants, their bargain shops and lately their clothes shops... I find amazing your culture, but we cannot get much first hand information. These people learn our language so quickly that it is incredible!, sometimes I think that if I had to learn chinese, I could not ever learn it as such speed. The isolation of these groups towards the rest of the civilians have given out thousands of 'black legends', such as that there have not been a single defunction of a single chinese in our country in years and that´s what statistics refer, so people tend to invent many things, but I think that everything is because everything remains a complete mistery for most of us. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Opinion 3:
I think some of Chinese are very snobby, that is true. I don't want to say any thing bad on Chinese people, I just want to tell something that I know. Some of my school mates here who come form China are very crafty. I mean, it depends on indivaduals. But they really do make me and my friends feel in that way. Sometimes they lie to us, even to proffesors, probably just want to make themselves look better in our American eyes. (Now I know that is because of 'face') (we really dislike those people who always lie, I mean, no matter where they come from). And I feel like, they don't like each other that much, I mean, Chinese people and chinese people. So wired to me.
But, there's no doubt that they are really really hard-working. Actually I really like Chinese people, even though sometimes they are hard to understand. PS. I can speak Chinese very well, and I can write in Chinese, very well I think, because I have lived there for a very long time. (Beijing) About 8 or 9 years. I went into elementary school, middle school and high school in China. Now I back to States. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Opinion 4:
Hi, I do not agree some of your opions.
Chinese are smart hard workers, but they do not tend to act as groups. There is a saying in China said " 1 chinese alone is a dragon while 3 chinese togather is a worm" _____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Every buddy who is now visiting my space and who is Chinese as I am, how do you feel after reading the posts?
According to foreigners' view, Chinese people is hard-working and clever, that's ture without doubt. I'm proud of it indeed. But there're also many problems such as snobby and lack of cooperation! That's ture and I can feel it deeply just surround me! What shall we do? Just to be disdained by the world or to stay together?!
Ps: Recently I'm almost busy with my study and hardly have any time to take care of my space. So I'm sorry for it :) 评论 (10)
