The China Craze By Isabella Tsui I saw a picture about China Craze on internet yesterday. In the picture, I can see that there are some vases made of China, which are typical products in China since ancient time. An image of a panda playing Kung Fu is carved on the surface of the vases, in which both Panda and Kung Fu are the symbols of Chinese elements. Besides, the Chinese mahjong which is growing out of a vase is also a typical Chinese element. It is obvious that the phenomenon of “China fever” is more and more popular, referring to a foreign passion and enthusiasm on Chinese elements, especially culture. There are reasons accounting for the growing interest in Chinese elements. For one thing, for the past decades, China has made conspicuous progress in all fields such as economy, science and technology, and comprehensive strength of China has been enhanced greatly. For another, due to the progress, China presents a new image to the world and is becoming increasingly attractive and appealing to the whole world. Nearly every day news stories are reported and broadcasted about what is going on in and around China. And by 2010, these are 72 Confucius Institutes in 26 European countries established to spread Chinese language and culture. Toward this kind of “China craze”, we should hold a right attitude. On the one hand, we should take pride in the “China craze” by foreigners, which originates from the increasing prestige of China. On the other hand, it is the responsibility of each Chinese citizen to popularize and promote excellent traditional Chinese culture and guard a favorable image of our motherland. 我在这里给你翻译吧： 我昨天在网上看见一张关于“中国热”的照片，在照片中，我看到了一些瓷制的花瓶，这是中国自古以来的典型的产品。瓶身上画着一只正在练习中国功夫的熊猫，熊猫和功夫这两样同样是中国文化的代表。此外，花瓶中长出的“麻将”也是典型的中国元素。 “中国热”的现象越来越流行，即国外对中国元素尤其是中华文化的一种追捧和热情。国外对中国元素的兴趣上升的这种现象是有原因的。首先，过去的几十年中，中国在经济，科技等各个领域都取得了显著的进步，中国的综合国力已经大幅度提高。另一方面，由于这些进步，中国以崭新的形象出现世人面前，在全世界越来越有吸引力。几乎每天都有很多关于中国与周边正在的新闻报道，直到2010年，已经有26个欧洲国家，一共建立了72所孔子学院来传播中华文化。 对于这种“中国热”的现象我们应该持有正确的态度。一方面我
