活动三阅读文章,了解中西方文化的不同
　　Eastern and Western cultures are very different in many ways. In Eastern cultures, family value and respect for elders are deeply ingrained. Harmony and collectivism are highly valued. Eastern cultures also tend to be more traditional, with a strong emphasis on history and ancient wisdom.
　　On the other hand, Westerners often value independence and personal expression, and they encourage innovation and new ideas. Western cultures also tend to be more forward—looking, focusing on progress and future potential.
　　These differences are not only cultural, but they also reflect different values and worldviews. Both Eastern and Western cultures have their own unique strengths and beauty, and it’s important to respect and appreciate these differences. Learning about both cultures can help us broaden our horizons and understand the world better.

任务二
　　British English and American English have some differences. British people often use “lift” for elevators and “chips” for fried potatoes. But Americans say “elevator” and “fries”. Grammar is also a bit different. British English might be more casual with articles, while Americans are stricter. Culture also plays a role. British English reflects UK traditions, while American English shows US history. Despite these differences, both are fun to learn!
