传统上,中文里没有隐私这一概念。这是因为在中国，集体主义这一价值观受到高度赞扬。另一方面，中国人喜欢和家人住在一起，他们认为这样显示了和谐的人际关系。我们甚至看到在中国，不同的家庭住在一个大院子里。在这样的居住环境下是没有隐私可言的。因此，中国人觉得凡事不必隐藏。
Traditionally, there is no equivalent term for “privacy” in Chinese. This is because the value of collectivism is praised highly in China. On the other hand, Chinese people enjoy living together
with their family members because it is a way to show harmonious human relationship. It is not strange for us to find that even people from different families share a big courtyard in China. With such arrangements, privacy would be hardly possible. So, Chinese people feel that nothing should be concealed. Unit 3

在中国，婚礼习俗各地不同，但也有共同点。在过去，举行婚礼前，新娘会由一位当地德高望重的老年妇女为她用彩色的棉绳扎头发。新娘要穿红裙子，因为中国人认为红色喜庆。新郎也要穿红褂子（be in red gown）。他们要拜（kowtow）天地，父母和夫妻对拜。在有的地方，婚礼的当晚亲戚朋友们会闹洞房（play games in the bridal chamber）。婚后的第三天，新婚夫妇要回新娘的娘家，和亲戚们聚餐。
In China, marriage customs differ by regions, but there are something in common. In the past, before the wedding ceremony, the bride would be helped by a respectable old woman to tie up her hair with colorful cotton threads. She should wear a red skirt as Chinese believed red is the symbol of delight. The bridegroom was also in a red gown. They should kowtow to worship the
heaven, parents and each other. On the night of the wedding day, there was a custom in some places — relatives or friends playing games in the bridal chamber. On the third day of the marriage, the new couple would go back to the bride’s parents’ home. They would be received with a dinner party including relatives. Unit4
