In recent years, with high-speeded development of China's economy and the rapidly improving of comprehensive national strength, "China's rise " increasing becomes a big light spot that attracts international community attention, the countries all over the world make all sorts of responses to " the rise of China". Among them, As the only superpower after the Cold War, the U.S.A. present anxiety and unsettlement at "China's rise", in the U.S.A. "China threat theory " has emerged one by one since the 1990s . How to think about "China threat theory" of the western countries? How will China get along with U.S.A. in the process of "China's rise ",in the course of China's modernization .the problems become important ones that need to be solved at onceThere are several kinds of theories that support countries " China threat theory " in the western, from Afkorganshi's " Power Transition Theory" and George Mordelski's "Hegemony Cycle Theory" to Robert Gilpin's "Hegemony Stability Theory and John Mearsheimer's " Offensive Realism ", from the basic viewpoint , they are all realistic theories . these theories think the essence of the relations among the great powers is to fight for power . as the emerging great power, China will challenge the hegemony of U.S.A.. Power with the rapidly improving of national strength, power shift will follow the war between the great powers, . So " China threat theory " person maintain that they should adopt various means to contain China so as to stop the development of China before China can challenge U.S.A.In view of the above theory, this article analyze them on the Neo-liberalism and Constructivism's Cooperation Theory. The new liberalism theory think the system may converge anticipations, reduce transaction costs, provide information, and increase the trust among the sides, the multitudinous international system which the modern international society already established will provide the bridge for Sino-America peaceful coexistence. Constructivism emphasize status, idea and identity, the theory holds the relations among the nations are constructed in the social practice, they may be the hostile relations, also may be the cooperation relations. Similarly, Sino-America relations also may realize the benign development through both countries' exertTheoretically, China and America don't necessarily move towards the resistance, and the fact which the globalization accelerates also has provided the solid foundation for Sino-America cooperation.

US's strategies and the policies to China demonstrates obvious two tendency, on the one hand, US took China as "the threat" on dominating the world, on the other hand, common interests between China and America leads US to cooperate with China, although the differences still exist, behind them exist profound common interests. Therefore, only through bilateral coordination can China and America solve these differences, resistance is not profitable to the two countries' people's basic interestThe article finally specifically has analyzed the way and the method of Sino-America co ordinations. First, both sides must strengthen mechanism construction, it includes multilateral and bilateral mechanism construction. Regarding the most sensitive Taiwan problem, China and America should achieve the mutual recognition so as to maintain Taiwan's stability on the common grounds.
