Hello, I a Chinese girl and I am from a beautiful city called Suzhou. I think a large majority of culture in China is similar. I know that people in different place eat different food in spring festival, such as, in south of china people must have fish in spring festival while dumpling must appear in north of china.

Now I am study in Wuxi, and know some culture in Austria. Our teacher said the most made she cannot belief that in western countries, if a teacher ask a student to go out, the student will leave the classroom and not come back; but in China, the student always do not leave the room.

Do you know any culture difference? Please tell me.

Of course ,There are some culture differences between different countries,even between different regions in ssme country.

For examples,people in British are more serious than poeple in North America;people in middle East are more partial to Islamic religion than people in other countries,they take their beliefs very seriously;people in Australia are more relaxing than people in North America,they don't have tense lives'beats as same as people in North America; Japanese are more industrious and hardworking than people in some Asia countries.

I have a few chinese friends who they are living in north America,they are also study hard and work hard,they are very intelligence,they don't like the environment of mainland China,they told me that the corruption and social unfair in China are very serious although the economy has improved a lot since they began free-market reform.They also hope China will practise politic refome someday,but now they don't consider going back China until the mainland Chian become free and democratic country in the future.
