In this novel, Amy Tan not only demonstrates the cultural differences of  marriage, education, mode of expression and other aspects between China and America, but also shows cultural conflicts. Mother-daughter relationship is the basic point for revealing the cultural conflicts, so as to explore whether two different cultures can integrate with each other. 

After giving a brief introduction of research on The Joy Luck Club, this thesis will probe into the causes of mother-daughter conflicts. By analyzing mother-daughter relationship, cultural differences existed in two cultures will be revealed as well as the causes of cultural differences.

摘 要《喜福会》由美国作家谭恩美所著的一本畅销小说，《喜福会》侧重描写四个华裔家庭的生活，他们在旧金山成立了一个俱乐部，取名喜福会。作者以短篇的形式与我们分享了三位母亲和四个女儿的生活故事。

《喜福会》不仅向我们展示了中美婚姻观，教育观,表达方式等方面的差异，也揭示了中美文化冲突。本文以喜福会中四对的母女关系为基点,揭示导致母女关系冲突的原因，最终揭示出隐含在母女关系后面的文化冲突，从而探讨两种不同根源的文化是否能够融合。

在对《喜福会》的研究做了简要介绍之后，本文将探讨母女冲突的原因。通过对母女关系的分析，揭示两国的文化差异和文化根源，深入了解文化差异的原因。此外，三个问题需要进一步讨论。中国传统文化和美国文化分别对母亲和女儿有什么深远影响？两种不同根源的文化能否融合？为什么文化融合是解决文化冲突的好方法以及有哪些解决方式？

总之，迈向命运共同体是一个必然的趋势。因此随着跨文化交流日趋频繁，交际能力也应不断提高。只要文化融合建立在理解，尊重，交流与爱的基础上，那么迈向民与共同体的愿望是触手可及的。
