英汉文化差异
最近我有一次机会登上一艘豪华游轮观光。一次,
我在酒吧台拿了两杯鸡尾酒回房间享受,途中遇到一位女士,她看看我后笑着说:“You
have
matches?”我一愣,回答说:“很抱歉,我十五年前就戒烟了,所以没有火柴。”她立刻会意到我误解了她的意思,好像是有点抱歉地说:“It's
a
joke.”
然后,我们就相互尴尬的笑了笑,走开了。
事后和朋友在吃晚饭的时候聊天,我趁机向一个美国朋友请教白天的那句话,他解释说:“因为她看你两手都占着,就故意开玩笑跟你要火柴,这是个非常普通的笑话,非但没有恶意,反而是想问你需不需要帮忙。”

American
'Uncle
Hanzi'
dedicated
to
research
of
Chinese
characters

In
1972,
Richard
Sears,
a
young
American
from
the
state
of
Tennessee,
began
learning
Chinese
because
of
his
fascination
with
traditional
Chinese
culture."Chinese
characters
are
the
only
ancient
script
now
still
in
use
in
the
world
and
it's
a
miracle
of
human
history,"
said
Sears
in
fluent
Chinese.
As
a
primitive
form
of
Chinese
characters
and
the
oldest
fully
developed
characters
in
China,
Jiaguwen,
or
oracle
bone
inscriptions,
were
first
discovered
in
1899
and
named
for
their
inscriptions
on
tortoise
shells
and
animal
bones.Drawn
to
the
ancient
language,
Sears
often
went
back
and
forth
between
China
and
the
US.
As
a
computer
engineer
in
his
country,
he
continued
to
learn
Chinese
until
the
1990s.
In
1994,
after
stricken
by
a
severe
heart
attack,
he
made
a
decision."At
that
time,
I
almost
died.
Later
on,
I
was
thinking
that
if
I
had
only
one
day
left
to
live,
I
would
call
my
friends
and
say
'goodbye'
and
if
one
year
left,
I
would
make
the
ancient
Chinese
characters
available
online,"
Sears
recalled.
In
the
following
days,
Sears
started
programming
and
building
a
database
of
oracle
bone
inscriptions.
It
took
him
seven
years
just
to
scan
the
characters
in
Chinese
ancient
books.In
2002,
the
Jiaguwen
enthusiast's
website
was
launched,
though
with
only
a
few
page
views
per
day
in
the
beginning.
However,
it
surged
to
600,000
per
day
in
2011
after
a
blogger
recommended
the
site
on
Chinese
social
media
platform
Weibo.
"I
became
a
web
celebrity
overnight
and
was
given
a
nickname
'Uncle
Hanzi,'"
Sears
said
with
a
smile.
Hanzi
means
Chinese
characters.During
the
past
26
years,
he
has
accumulated
a
great
deal
of
information
on
his
website
--
more
than
96,000
ancient
Chinese
character
forms
from
archeological
sources.
"Every
character
fascinates
me.
I
hope
to
take
people
back
to
the
origin
of
Chinese
characters
and
see
how
each
of
them
evolved
into
what
it
is
today,"
he
said.Up
till
now,
the
website
has
been
continuously
updated,
giving
lovers
of
the
ancient
language
from
all
over
the
world
free
access
to
browse
at
their
leisure.
"When
I
analyze
each
character,
I
wonder
what
did
the
ancient
Chinese
think,"
said
Sears.In
order
to
reveal
the
mystery
behind
the
ancient
characters,
he
spent
a
great
deal
of
money
and
time
buying
and
going
through
dozens
of
books,
living
on
a
shoestring.

ROME
-
A
flying
start
into
both
halves
helped
the
Three
Lions
to
knockout
uninspired
Ukraine
4-0
in
the
quarterfinals
at
the
Stadio
Olimpico
in
Rome
on
Saturday.
England
came
off
with
a
perfect
start
and
opened
the
scoring
with
only
four
minutes
into
the
game
as
Raheem
Sterling's
fine
through
ball
allowed
Harry
Kane
to
fire
past
Heorhiy
Bushchan
from
very
close
range.
Ukraine
needed
some
time
to
gain
a
foothold
into
the
contest
but
had
their
first
effort
on
target
with
17
minutes
played
when
Roman
Yaremchuk
unleashed
a
dangerous
shot
to
test
England
goalkeeper
Jordan
Pickford.
However,
it
remained
Ukraine's
only
chance
on
target
in
the
first
45
minutes
as
England
controlled
possession
without
creating
clear-cut
opportunities.
After
the
restart,
the
Three
Lions
gave
the
Ukrainians
a
mountain
to
climb
as
Harry
Maguire
doubled
the
advantage
after
nodding
home
Luke
Shaw's
free
kick
into
the
box
with
two
minutes
into
the
second
half.
Andriy
Shevchenko's
side
was
shocked
and
unable
to
respond
whereas
relentless
Englishman
made
it
three
in
the
50th
minute
when
Shaw's
second
assist
found
Kane,
who
nutmegged
Bushchan
with
a
header
from
central
position.
Ukraine
couldn't
put
up
resistance
against
dominating
England
as
Bushchan
neutralized
Kane's
volley
with
a
diving
parry
before
Jordan
Henderson
headed
home
the
subsequent
corner
to
round
off
the
4-0
victory.
England
controlled
the
proceedings
for
the
remainder
of
the
game
as
Ukraine
lacked
in
ideas
and
penetration.
With
the
result,
England
advance
into
their
first
Euro
semi
since
1996
and
will
now
return
to
Wembley
to
encounter
in-form
Denmark
on
home
soil.
"It
is
a
great
feeling.
Back-to-back
semi-finals
at
a
major
tournament
is
a
great
achievement.
I
don't
want
to
be
a
party
pooper,
but
we
don't
stop
here.
We've
got
another
big
game
coming
up
and
we
want
to
go
further
this
time,"
England
defender
Harry
Maguire
said.
"It
is
a
special
night
for
England.
All
players
have
staged
a
great
performance
in
this
tournament,
but
we
have
to
continue
and
stay
focused,"
England
head
coach
Gareth
Southgate
said.?
