卷首語:
If a country has what it takes its people to take pride in,its people's hearts will beat true to their country.
「國家」 in Chinese without a proper counterpart(對應詞) in English forges(鑄造) a strong spritual bond between its country and people.While its boundary is bound(有限),its emotional bond is boundless(無限).The past thousands of years have seen a great number of heros make it their sacred(神聖) duties to do what they can for their country.If not totally impossible,they can do what little they can at least.
Loyalty(忠誠) to their country,the most politically correct,acts as the only touchstone(試金石) for their virtues(美德),regardless of(無論) their other vices(缺點) except their betrayal(背叛).In the past, they were supposed to be loyal to the royal(忠於皇家) while nowadays they should be committed to their country(忠於國家).If their rulers were wrong,they should not rise up(起義,叛變) againt the wrong but rise to the occasion(隨機應變應付局面) with the right tips wrapped in clever hints(暗示),just to spare their rulers' feelings(顧及面子感情) and save their pride as well.If the modern governments on behalf of(代表) their country have a hidden agenda(幕後的動機) at the expense of(以---為代價) their people's well-being(福祉),some whistle-blowers(揭弊者) tend to be brave enough to stand up to the dirty tricks(直面卑鄙陰謀) by revealing the concealed(揭露內幕) even at the cost of their honour and lives.If a nation can admit to its wrong doing and do credit(帶來榮光) to its well-meaning critics(善意的批評者),it will be strengthened,not weakened by those whistle-blowers who speak out on violations (破壞)of the law.
With the rise of new China,full of ups and downs,its people are feeling a growing amount of passion(熱愛) for their motherland,because comparison throws it into relief(使之凸顯) when the other superpower(超級大國) closes down and fouls up(搞砸) with China determined to open up and pick up(越來越好).China can not give its people the right to do what they please but the opportunity to do what is right,though it has yet to be perfect(有待完善) with many challenges to fight off.
The country which wins the people's hearts beating true to their country will survive any impossibe odds(艱難險阻). May China give its people more reason to love it !
