【正文】 n poet Ovid. Chinese people have also got some proverbs from other languages. Such as (33)―吃 不到葡萄說(shuō)葡萄酸 ‖is from ―The grapes are sour.‖ (34)―誰(shuí)笑到最后，誰(shuí)笑得最好 ‖is from ―He who laughs last laughs best.‖ (35)―條條大路通羅馬 ‖is from ―All roads lead to Rome.‖ These have been accepted by Chinese people and bee Chinese proverbs. From above we can find out that English and Chinese proverbs have similar origins from folk life, mythology, literary works and from other languages. From these similar origins we can see that English and Chinese people have similar social activities and emotional reflection and observation of the world. Similar linguistic characters Proverbs are created by mon people and orally handed down from generation to generation again and again. English and Chinese proverbs are concise and vivid. Conciseness The cleanest water is spring。 (41)剩秧如剩草，缺秧如缺寶。 (49) Many lords, many laws. Gorky said that, ―The true art is authorized to exaggerate.‖ Hyperbole is an exaggeration used to give emphasis and strike the readers deeply. .: (50) A thousand years cannot repair a moment’s loss of honor. (51)谷子栽得稀，不夠喂小雞。 history customs。（ As a pan sows, so shall he reap.） (58)人勤地不懶。 (Ancestors plant trees while descendants enjoy the cool under the tree shade—enjoying the fruits of labor of one’s ancestors.) From above, we can see that English and Chinese proverbs reflect their different geographical conditions. England is an island country, so many English proverbs are about ―sea‖, ―fish‖, ―ship‖ and so on. While many Chinese proverbs are about agriculture, such as ―豆 ‖， ―雪 ‖， ―倉(cāng) ‖， ―地 ‖,etc. Reflecting different history customs Each nation has its own history. Since proverbs are historical products, they may reflect some aspects of the national history. English proverbs are related to the history of England. .: (62)―It is as hard to please a knave as a knight.‖ A knight refers to a man given the rank of knighthood by the British monarch. There are many legends about the English knights (.: King Arthur and his green knights) in the ancient times。 (Marry a cock and follow the cock, marry a dog and follow the dog. —Follow the man you marry, be he fowl or cur.)[12] From above we can see that English and Chinese proverbs reflect the different history. English proverbs are related to king and knight while Chinese proverbs reflect the Chinese people’s grudge and resistance to rulers. 英語(yǔ) 畢業(yè)論 文 vii Reflecting different religions Religion is a very important part of culture. Different religions reflect different cultural characters, different cultural backgrounds and different cultural traditions. Religion is a cultural phenomenon. Proverbs are closely related to the culture, so proverbs can reflect the different religious faith. [13] English people believe in Christianity and it is the most influential religion in the west. Many English proverbs reflect English people’s religious faith and many of them are about ―God‖, ―devil‖, ―heaven‖, ―church‖, ―cross‖ and ―hell‖. .: (67) As poor as the church mouse. (68) God helps those who help themselves. (69) The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose. (70) Better go to heaven in rags than to hell in embroidering. (71) The way to heaven is by Weeping Cross. The proverbs above are apparently related to Christianity, because in them ―God‖, ―devil‖, ―heaven‖, ―church‖, ―cross‖ and ―hell‖ appear which are the embodiments of Christianity. In contrast, Buddhism is the most popular religion in China. Many proverbs are about Buddhism such as: (72)平時(shí)不燒香 ,臨時(shí)抱佛腳。 (The butcher who lays down his knife at once bees a Buddha.) These proverbs are about 佛，和尚，廟 and 菩薩。 ‖shows the strength of collective or union.

(87)―忍一時(shí)風(fēng)平浪靜，退一步海闊天空。 (77)道高一尺，魔高一丈， etc. English and Chinese people have different religious faith. Different religions lead to the differences between English and Chinese proverbs. Christianity is the main religion in Englishspeaking countries, so many English proverbs are related to ―God‖. While Chinese people believed in Buddhism and Taoism, so many Chinese proverbs are about―佛 ‖and ―道 ‖。 (The monk may run away, but the temple can’t run with him. —A fugitive must belong to some place that can provide clues.) (74)泥菩薩過(guò)河 ,自身難保。 (The magistrates are free to burn down houses, while the mon people are forbidden even to light lamps. –The powerful can do what they want, the weak are not allowed to do anything.) (65)朱門(mén)酒肉臭 ,路有凍死骨。 (A snow year, a rich year.) (60)一粒下地 , 萬(wàn)粒歸倉(cāng)。 being on the land, settle. (55) Let another’s shipwreck be your navigation mark. China is an agriculture country. Every feudal dynasty pays much attention to agriculture. Agriculture is the fundamental and crucial trade. So there are many farming proverbs about agriculture. Farming proverbs constitute a large part of Chinese proverbs. They are the crystal of agriculture experiences of Chinese people. It can be seen in the following examples: (56)春雨貴如油。 different history customs。 (47)謊言怕真理，黑暗怕陽(yáng)光。 (39)人心齊泰山移。 (Man proposes。（ from a folk legend） Originating from literary works Many English and Chinese proverbs e from literary works.
