"The grass looks greener on the other side
of the fence," That's an old 1 in English. It means other places often look better,
more interesting than the 2 in which you live. Some people worry 3young Chinese are beginning to feel that
way. They see young Chinese paying no attention to Chinese culture and, 4, buying Japanese cartoon books, watching
Korean soap operas and even celebrating Western holidays.
Foreign books and soap operas are good, 5 Chinese
writers and actors are just as good. As for holidays, Christmas is nice, but it
can 6 have
the meaning for Chinese that the Spring Festival has, and the West has nothing to
compare with the Mid-Autumn Festival. And let's not forget the part of Chinese
culture I like best:7 friendliness. Not all countries are as 8 as
China.
It's good to enjoy other cultures
and 9 from
them, but they cannot replace your own culture. It's good to look on the other
side of the fence, but 10 you take a good long look. You will find that the
grass isn't always greener on the other side of the fence.
