The dragon is the symbol of the Chinese nation, since the ancient times, Chinese people are descendants of the dragon claim. However, perhaps in a few years we just pandas or other what of transmission.
In western culture, the dragon is a highly destructive and aggressive animals, and evil together tightly. So, in their eyes, the Chinese dragon so also. So we to eliminate the international misunderstandings, began to gradually abandon the broad variety of China. A few years ago, a university in Shanghai a professor had proposed to give up the use of dragons, as China's national symbol, instead using pandas because the panda is mild, the lovely, by the love of people all over the world.
The event was once in the online be hot debate, most people are against. In fact, the western culture of dragon and Chinese dragon completely is not the same thing. In China, the dragon is divine since ancient times, it can bring the good good year, is a kind of auspicious symbol. We can ask a foreigner publicity our broad variety, let them know of China, to help eliminate their broad variety of the Chinese dragon misunderstandings, and secondly promoted the spread of Chinese traditional culture, profit quite a lot. However, we do not, do we not hesitate to place it abandoned, but also the United States it yue to change China national image, promote Chinese and foreign exchange. Ask, because the Democratic Party will be in China is a donkey not quite tasteful alleged and to give up its as the symbol of the Democratic Party?
Westerners will because the Chinese eat not to spoil rawness and change the beef eat Chinese food? Absolutely not, because it's their own culture and way of life, not because foreigners opinion and change. And we will be different, we always emphasize and the international community, under the banner of promote international communication, Chinese tradition culture bit to discard away. In all major cities in China, western building or in western vocabulary building everywhere.
The name People is fond of western Christmas and valentine's day and so on other festival of Chinese traditional festival, is relatively cold, so much so that the Dragon Boat Festival also let Korea took (South Korea in the inheritance and the protection of traditional culture is extremely seriously). Western culture and holiday has its special geographical and cultural history background, in China it is not, in the end just nondescript, "west not the west break". The results, the "track" international didn't plug in their own "track", also be destroyed.
The nation is the world, so the world for diversity to more excellent, a state and national because there are its own unique cultural tradition can stand in the world. Universal is not exist, why we want to western countries recognition and throw away our traditional culture? This is not the Chinese national tragedy! China needs to communicate with the world, need to let the world know yourself, and Chinese culture of compatible and bag is not to sacrifice their own traditional culture, we can not to sacrifice the interests of the state, the abandonment of Chinese traditional culture as a price.
Foreigners don't understand, we can of publicity and communication, should not blindly abandon and with him. The initiative to communicate with foreigners not wrong, but similar to abandon the practice of traditional culture is not advisable. Just think, foreigners make an unruly, we'll throw away chopsticks chopsticks have picked up the knife and fork? Some western countries expect China to disappear in the earth, we will not go away?
Last year, the new rules issued by the state administration of radio: screen disable English acronym. This rule led to a lot of the debate. From the point of view of Chinese protection, the rules are necessary, because in China today, Chinese society of great positive living crisis, the strength of the English that Chinese invasion are gradually becoming a weak language. But from another Angle, this provision and not comprehensive, since want prohibited the use of the NBA, CBA, such as GDP, so be about English acronym accomplish complete, CCTV as one of China's most important media, still in use of CCTV, isn't it? Not reasonable sticker, the policy is take temporary solution not effect a permanent cure?
In fact, according to the national language the relevant provisions of the law, the use of CCTV as sticker itself is in violation of the provisions of laws, this kind of behavior was continued for decades, but we turn a blind eye, not worth thinking?
This phenomenon is the essence of what is behind reflect??????? China's reform DuoNian 30, China society toward foreign culture and Chinese traditional culture attitude.
Since the reform and opening up, China's opening to the degree of more and more high, China in the DuoNian 30 in the achievements of the remarkable problems, but also can not be ignored. In contemporary Chinese society, there exists a kind of is not normal tendency, blind worship or keen on foreign especially of western developed countries culture and values, and the relative is traditional to China culture and abandoned the cold. Look at our school, elementary school from grade three began to learn English, and school and college students on campus, in order to English 46 class all kinds of English test in English and has spent a lot of time and energy.
One's deceased father grind to an English examination, the other test and title promotion also need English, can say now of the Chinese people, especially students, and English at a lifetime occasions. But, can speak good English but not much see, we spent more than ten years of time is the cultivation of many will only deal with English test, is really sad! English is very important, but not probably necessary to every Chinese people to learn English, to speak English. A Chinese ancient language of graduate students and English has DuoDa relationship? But, no, must be an English examination, is really confusing. Not only that, a publication at to China and India when compared to "said India than we have language advantage, the reason is India's official language is English.
India is British rule for hundreds of years, even the national language is lost, the use of foreign language unexpectedly or advantage, true don't know we these scholars is how think. After the thousands of years of history of Chinese characters vicissitudes of life, is still in use, throughout the world, what a kind of language and characters than Chinese, Chinese characters have more advantages? Four ancient civilization in, only Chinese characters circulates, could not prove that the advantages of Chinese?
