Unit 1 Reflection



        Culture is very broad and the most humanistic concept. Simply speaking, culture is the collective name of the human form of life in the region: clothing, crown, literature, things, food, housing, and so on. It is indeed very difficult to give an accurate or precise definition of culture. Human beings have always been confused about the interpretation of the concept of culture. However, there is a common interpretation and understanding in the Eastern and Western dictionaries or encyclopedias: culture is all human spiritual activities and activities products relative to politics and economy. Every country has its own culture. I learned the culture of many different countries by watching posters of other students. When I was doing my own poster, I also learned a lot about the culture of my own country. I didn't know that why Chinese wedding dresses were made by hand. When I was doing a survey, I found out that this has a great meaning and is a blessing. Through the data survey, I learned a lot of things that I didn't know. My aha moment was I saw that some of my classmates wrapped their heads with their headscarf every day. I always thought it was their hobby or the fashion of their country. By watching this classmate’s poster I know that this is actually the religious culture of their country. Girls are bound to wrap their heads to the heaviest. When I knew the truth, I suddenly realized. I think this poster is especially meaningful. We can learn a lot and learn a lot about other regions. I hope that every unit can learn a lot.
