I studied at Iowa Wesleyan College in America for two and a half years. In order to further understand American higher education system, I interviewed a librarian of Iowa Wesleyan College named Sherril Gibbs. And I have used a lot of data of the department of education USA government from Wikipedia and other sources in my paper. Then this paper finds that Chinese and American higher education system has their own strengths and weaknesses. Both the systems have a need to learn from each other to execute a better education system and to ensure development of all students as per their interest and abilities.展开更多

By reason of the culture difference of different countries, Chinese and American often have diverse responses and attitudes toward the compliment, which directly cause their different responses when they make reactions to the compliment.[1]From study, we see the difference is mainly in the following, on one hand, the Chinese are often very implicative toward the compliment and they respect all other people while they are quite humble when in the communication, on the other hand, the American are much more public, although they also respect other people, they are not keeping humble at the same time.展开更多
