Misunderstandings of China For Foreigners 外国人对中国的误解

We have learned many things about western countries, because the world gets globalized and we want to know the trend. What's more, we learn the culture as we learn English all the time. But things are different for foreigners. As the Asian country, they know little things about China, so the misunderstandings will happen all the time. A lot of foreigners think Chinese people have Kongfu, because they have seen a lot of Kongfu movies. This type of movie was very popular in the 1990s, which opened the door for foreigners to learn about this old country. As the directors liked to create the stereotype of Chinese image, many foreigners believe that China is poor and even doesn't have taxi. This is so ridiculous, especially when foreigners ask us about if we can play Kongfu. As the development of Chinese economy, the communication between countries will be enhanced.

因为世界正在全球化，我们了解到很多关于西方国家的事情，而且我们也想了解世界的趋势。更重要的是，我们在不断学习英语的过程中同时也是产生误解。很多外国人认为中国人会功夫，因为他们看过很多关于功夫的电影。这种类型的电影在19世纪20年代很受欢迎，也是这种类型的电影打开了外国人了解这个古老国家的大门。导演们也喜欢制造刻板印象，很多外国人认为中国很穷，甚至没有出租车。这是如此的荒谬，特别是外国人问我们是否会功夫。随着中国经济的发展，国与国之间的交流将会增强。
