Culture is the reason why human beings are human beings. Cultures are very diverse, but what they have in common is the ability to use language and creative tools. The original meaning of culture should be in the daily life of the people. Therefore, when looking at the state of culture, we should look at how it lives the people. When looking at the state of culture, we should especially look at all its cultural relics. The activities that cover the life of mankind must be left to future generations, whether material or spiritual, are important components of culture.
For those with academic qualifications, the process of studying is also. The level of education can only reflect the level of education in school. Although those with a high degree of education have profound professional knowledge, they may not have cultural literacy. Therefore, if the relationship between education and culture is concerned, it is only as good as the horse. Although the education is high, it may not be educated; Although the education level is low, it is not necessarily uneducated. A person's cultural literacy does not depend on academic qualifications, but on their understanding and respect for society, history, and humanities.
Culture is the accumulation of human life. Since the beginning of the flood and famine, human beings have made a living by hunting, and then gradually developed various industries such as agriculture, industry, and commerce. These accumulations are the cornerstones of culture. Since then, mankind has created a variety of spiritual products such as art, science, and philosophy. Therefore, culture is the accumulation and creation of human life.
There is a distinction between high and low academic qualifications, and there is no difference between high and low culture. Culture is like water, omnipresent; Culture is like the sea, all-encompassing. By looking at a person's words and deeds, you can know whether they are literate or not. If a person's words and deeds are vulgar, even if they have a high degree of education, they can hardly be called educated; If a person is gentle in words and deeds, even if he does not have a high degree of education, he can be said to be educated. Therefore, although there is a relationship between education and culture, it is not a decisive factor.
In short, culture is what makes human beings human. Looking at the cultural state of a country and a people, we can know the spiritual outlook of its people; Looking at a person's cultural literacy, we can know their spiritual world. Academic qualifications can only reflect the level of education in school, while culture reflects the accumulation and creation of human life. Therefore, culture is not about how high your education is, but how you live in the world as a human being. Wenxin Yiyan app
