Culture & Behavior. (Please help me correct, thank you!) Culture is defined as a product of long-term human activities, it is invisible and variable but it can be demostrated in different ways. One of the most apparent ways is to be shown on people’ behaviors. Since a child was born, he or she would be taught by their parents about the culture of their country. From custom to habit, or even belief, they started to learn how to behave properly so as to involve into the environment. With the different backgrounds, culture can be distinguished through one’s behavior. As for Chinese children, or other Asian children, they were taught to respect the elder people and learn to be modest, while western people treat all the people equally. They may not behave as open as the westerns who have their own perspective of viewing the world or dare to challege the authority. Sometimes, when joining a big party, Asian people would like to talk with people who are also from Asia yet western people prefer chatting with different people worldwilde on all kinds of topic. Which suggest that Asian people are somewhat conservative as they are influenced by their culture. As reverse, people’ behaviour can also influence culture. We are living in the world when globalization is wide-spreading, many cities become multi-cultural because there is a growing number of people coming from all over the world and what they behave is well-mixed with the local culture. It has been formed to a “new culture” that is gradually accepted by the public. Culture and behavior have impact on each other and they have been and will be cycling non-stop.

Culture & Behavior. (Please help me correct, thank you!)

Culture is defined as a product of long-term human activities, it is invisible and variable but it can be demostrated in different ways. One of the most apparent ways is to be shown through peoples’ behaviors.
When a child was born, they will be taught by their parents about their country's culture. From customs to habits, or even beliefs, they begin to learn how to properly behave in order to become accustomed to their environment. With the different backgrounds, culture can be distinguished through one’s behavior. As for Chinese  or any other Asian children, they were taught to respect their elders and to be modest, while western children learn to treat all the people equally. They may not behave as open as westerners, who have their own perspective of viewing the world, or dare to challege authority. Sometimes, when joining a big party, Asian people would like to talk with people from a similar culture yet western people prefer chatting with different people worldwilde on all kinds of topics, which suggests that Asian people are somewhat conservative as they are influenced by their culture.
On the other hand, peoples’ behavior can also influence culture. We are living in a world where globalization is wide-spreading, many cities are becoming multi-cultural from a growing number of people coming from all over the world and whose behavior is well-mixed with the local culture. There has been a “new culture” formed that is gradually becoming accepted by the public.
Culture and behavior have constantly been impacting each other in such a cyclic pattern.

This is a very interesting topic! You are correct, there is a 'new culture' forming in the world with more respect and harmony between cultures and ethnicities. Its a good time to be alive!
