Culture expresses itself in terms of the art, literature, costumes, customs, language and religion. The word 'culture' comes from the Latin word which means “to teach”.      Culture is shared, by which we mean that every culture is shared by a group of people. Depending on the areas they live in, the climatic conditions they grow up in and their history, people form a set of values and beliefs. This set of rules of life shapes their culture. No culture belongs to a single person. It is rather shared among many people of a certain part of the world. Culture is learned. Cultural values are imparted(传授) from one generation to another, thus leading to continual traditions that are a part of culture. The language, the literature and the art forms pass across generations. No single person is born with a sense of his/her culture. He/she has to learn it.      Gradual change is a feature(特点) of almost every culture. Culture loses some of its features and gains new ones. With the passage of time, new technologies appear, new kinds of work come up, social thinking changes and so does culture. Every culture changes in time although the rate of change of every culture differs.      Studies have brought out a fact that no culture can remain in isolation(孤立). There is hardly any social group that is completely isolated from the rest of the world. Every culture, thus, is mostly affected by cultures of the surrounding areas. Cultural values are easy to be influenced by the values of nearby societies. The cultures, which appear during the same periods of time, often show certain similarities. Modern times have witnessed a mix of cultures. Cultures are combined together giving rise to shared cultures.
