ENGL145 AM - MA, He (Martin) - Week 5 1/2

I have been Canada for half year. There are many differences between Canada and China, and we used to use “culture shock” to call these differences.  First of all, people have different concepts on consumption between two countries; for example, Chinese always store their money because they can pay for it immediately when they want to buy something which is expensive or figure out the emergy. On the contrary, Canadian do not used to save money. I think this phenomenon is caused by the culture. In Chinese culture, sometimes, people save money for no reason because they just want to be a rich man. Maybe Canadian also have this opinion but the prices of goods are high in here, and they have to pay the bills. Most Canadian are very kind and gentle. Strangers can talk in bus or skytrain happily each other in Canada, but it is impossible in China. I don’t know what cause this difference, but I want to find out why.
