Language and thinking have an inseparate relation. Language is the carrier of thinking and abstraction of reality. Thinking is the conscious activity in which people's minds reflect and realize the objective reality. Language and thinking influence each other and reflect each other. The comparison between the English and Chinese languages and thinkings shows that, as for the word systems, English language is a sound language and the English people tend to do more abstract thinking while Chinese language is a figurative language and the Chinese people are inclined to use more image thinking and that, as for the language structures, English is a synthetic language, emphasizing hypotaxis, and the English people's anaslytic thinking dominates, while Chinese is an analytic language, emphasizing parataxis, and the Chinese people's comprehensive thinking dominates.
