Different countries have different languages and cultures. In this article, I'll simply introduce the meaning of two colors between China and Western countries.
In Chinese culture, red usually represents (代表) something good. The bride and groom (新娘和新郎) usually wear red clothes at their wedding, because they believe it will bring happiness to them. But in Western countries, red is the color of force and it usually represents a strong feeling. Wearing red can make it easier to take action. So when you have difficulty making a decision, just wear red.
Another color is green. In China, green usually represents a new life, which has the same culture with Western countries. However, green is also the color of envy (嫉妒) in Western countries. So people may describe someone is "green with envy".
In a word, it can be said that color words carry different cultures. Learning the difference of color meanings between China and Western countries can not only help us to know about our cultures better, but also open our eyes. And it's also interesting to know about the cultural differences between countries.

I love eating persimmons (柿子). But people can't get them in summer. If people try them before the right , they probably taste bad.
Because of my poor grades, my parents worried I could get into an excellent high school or not. The summer came and the weather was hot. It made me feel . When I wanted to stop studying, my mom would shout, "If you give now, you will regret it!" I had to look back on my textbooks. They were full words.
My mom always said to me with a serious look on face. "You won't get any fruit in autumn unless a persimmon tree grows in summer!" Although I didn't like it at that time, I slowly about the truth of her words. I took and worked hard.
Several months later, I got into the key high school. It was autumn. Walking in my new school, I could a few persimmon trees. The persimmon was red. I realized that working hard might be bitter (苦的), but its fruit was sweet. My mom was right. a persimmon tree doesn't grow during summer, it can't get fruit in autumn.
Dear Dr. Liu,
I'm so worried these days because I get pimples (青春痘). It causes many problems. I feel embarrassed when I enter the classroom because all my classmates look at me in surprise. Some students even laugh at me. I don't want to communicate with anyone. I have to be the first one to get into the classroom and the last one to leave. And I become stressed out and can't fall asleep at night. What should I do? Please write to me. I'm looking forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.
Betty King
Dear Betty,
I'm so sorry to hear that you are worried about pimples. I'm also sorry that I can't stand beside you to share your stress. At first you should know that getting pimples is quite normal in your age. Congratulations! It shows that you have grown up. Secondly, you don't need to care too much. You can tell your classmates your problem directly and I think they will understand you. Thirdly, if you pay more attention to other things, like studying or outdoor activities, maybe you will find more fun. What's more, you can ask the doctors for some medicine. I hope things will work out and everything will be better for you soon.
Yours sincerely
Dr. Liu
