Abstract“Life is precious, love is more expensive”。 There is no doubt that love and marriage is one of the most important parts in one’s whole lifetime。 Many Westerners, no matter who they are, are willing to sacrifice themselves for love。 Their choice of marriage is based on love, regardless of origin, parentage, age, social status and other considerations。 When they are in love with each other, they cherish every minute together。 But when they stop loving each other, they can extricate themselves from the relationship frankly。 For Chinese people, Chinese marriage is not entirely built on the premise of love。 They need a certain material basis。 In Chinese People’s view of love, they advocate that the couples should love and respect each other, so that their relationship will maintain forever。 And in today’s society, the attitude towards love and marriage is not only affected by Western culture, but also has the deep trace of attitude towards Chinese traditional culture。 There are a lot of differences about views of love and marriage, standards of choosing spouse, marriage customs and other aspects between Chinese and Western countries due to different cultural backgrounds。 By comparing the two different views of marriage and analyzing the differences between the Chinese and Western culture, the paper aims to encourage people to treat the cultural differences in the right perspective。

摘要“生命诚可贵，爱情价更高”。毫无疑问爱情与婚姻是一个人一生中较为重要的一部分。西方人都可以为了爱情牺牲一切。他们对于婚姻的选择多是以爱情为基础，不论出身、门第、年龄、社会地位和其他考虑。有“情”便合在一起，无“情”就分开。对于中国人来说则不然，中国的婚姻并不完全以爱情为前提，需要一定的物质基础。中国人的爱情观中主张夫妇间要既爱且敬，以使夫妻关系天长地久。对于现今的社会而言，现今的婚姻观既受到西方爱情婚姻观的影响，又存在中式传统婚姻观的痕迹。由于文化背景环境不同，中西方在婚姻观念、择偶标准、婚姻习俗等方面也存在很大的不同。本文通过对中西方两种文化之间的爱情婚姻观的比较研究，进而通过爱情婚姻观的差异分析出中西方文化差异从而引导人们正确看待中西文化差异。
