After the opening police, interactions between different countries have becoming more and more frequently. People can see some things that they have not seen ever before and go to somewhere that they have not gone before. So people's thinking way, living contexts, value views and culture characters have changed greatly. As society's great changes in recent years, especially economics'globalization, information's numeralization, the world has become a"globe village". Cultures'diversity, opening and various cultures conflict, amalgamation are important problems that world's people face. In addition, our country has many different nationalities; development degrees between west and east, city and village are very imbalanced, more and more immigrates came into our country. Many factors evoke professors'attentions on culture's variation.At the same time, school education and elementary education's changes are also in a complex culture environments and culture choosing dilemma. Then, when we face such culture conditions, what should we do? Professor Peidinan said in one of her passage——The thoughts on various cultures and elementary education's curriculum culture construction which published in 2004 No 4 of Education development research——facing globalization and the contradiction of different cultures. At present, our school is short of dealing with various cultures'awareness. Our students do not have the ability of judging, choosing, and accepting world culture. They also lack the awareness of understanding and accepting national culture. As facing fruitful culture resources, students lack the ability of choosing and communicating with different cultures. We have to pay attention to these problems. What should school do to cultivate students adapting to and dealing with the world culture's development tendency actively? How should we do? This is a big, complex and complementary problem. It also needs a long time to solve the problem. So it is still a heavy mission and we have a long road to walk. Professor Zhengjinzhou said that culture and education have a close connection. All sides of education have culture's prints. In one hand, different cultures penetrate into education. In another hand, education presents cultures now and then. So to analyze various cultures is equal to analyze different culture types in education. This passage choused curriculum or we can say it more accurately Chinese textbooks as study subject. Then I take different culture types as theory to analyze the experimental Chinese textbooks. All these works'aim is to find out how the experimental Chinese textbook embodies various cultures. Comparing with old Chinese textbook, what changes do experiencing Chinese textbooks have? What problems does it have? At last, I give some suggestions to these problems.This thesis includes three parts. The first part is preface, which has three sides: the reason why I do this study, the way and methods of the thesis, the meaning of the thesis. In order to supply theory foundations for the following study, I also introduced culture's types in this part. The second part is to use the culture theory which is introduced in the first part to analyze the experimental Chinese textbook and passages of the new textbook to find out how experimental Chinese textbook embodies the eight different cultures: common culture, gender culture, age culture, peer culture, area culture, class culture, special culture. The third part is the most important part of the thesis, it also includes three aspects :(1) Statistics and compare different culture types in experiencing Chinese textbook. This part has used many tables to statistics different culture types in experiencing Chinese textbook and old textbook. Then I compare the results of the statistics between experiencing and old Chinese textbook. After comparing, I try to study the changes, traits, and problems of experiencing Chinese textbook. Then I try to find the reasons of the problems.(3) Pointing at problems in the experiencing Chinese textbook, I supply some suggestions. At last, I have written a conclusion of the thesis. I emphasis that if our Chinese textbook can embody various cultures it will helpful to cultivate students positive culture views. At the same time, I also point out the difficulties that Chinese textbook embodies various cultures. If we want to research the problems deeply, we need a long time.
