China has changed the world
Li Dongqi
Good morning ladies and gentlemen.Imagine that we live the city of Chang’an in Tang Dynasty.Walking along the street,we may meet people from different countries,wearing traditional Chinese costumes,speaking Chinese.They study,do businesses even settle here.What will we feel?We will feel proud because the nation is so advanced and prosperous.However,gone is our pride as the decline of China in recent history.But we should still be proud because China has changed the world both in ancient times and in modern times.
In ancient times,nothing had contributed to development of human civilization more than the four great inventions of China had.Fracis Bacon said” printing,gunpowder and compass have completely changed the appearance and situation of everything worldwide”.Without paper and printing,human being would not have recorded,inherited and spread knowledge effectively; without gunpowder,people may still be shackled in the darkness of feudalism; without compass,globalization would has been postponed centuries.We can not say that without the four great inventions of China,the development of human civilization would stoop,but we can safely say that it would have been delayed.
Besides technology,Chinese culture has also changed the world.When people absorb Chinese philosophy—the Unity of Man and Heaven to study how to get along with the nature; when 322 Confucius Institutes are established in 96 countries and regions; when Spring Festival becomes more and more popular around the world,we can easily understand how Chinese culture has changed the world.
In modern times,I just take the economy of China as an example,which has not only changed China,but also the world.American writer Sara Bongiorni made an experiment,in which her family did not buy any goods made in China.In her book A Year without Made in China she says “you can still live without it.But it’s getting trickier and costlier by the day.” This is a microcosm that shows how the economy of China has the world.The figure that half of the contribution to the increase of world economy was made by China in 2009 speaks louder.
Ladies and gentlemen,as Chinese,we should be proud that China has changed the world; as Chinese,we should be proud that China is changing the world; as Chinese,we should be proud that China will continue to change the world which will bring us back the lost pride.
