摘　　要：To achieve good communication, we have to first understand other cultures and their people. As the core of culture, ethical values permeate every culture and are guiding principles for people’s thoughts, behavior, language and communication. Individualism and collectivism, two main-stream ethical values, are the specific concern owing to their significance in their own culture. As family is the basic unit of society, individualism and collectivism are first taught through the family. It naturally follows that family structure is a practical version of individualism and collectivism.
