On More Attention Be Paid to English than Chinese

　　In China, English has clearly gained much more attention than Chinese, which is rare in other countries in the world. Anything with connection, even a remote one, to English is bound to flourish, such as bilingual summer camp.

　　This phenomenon has been in the spotlight for some time. Some people argue that the unbalanced situation will put China’s traditional culture in danger since language is the medium of culture. However, according to a different view, more emphasis put on English is not necessarily a bad sign. To those who hold this view, English is exactly what we need to know and learn from western countries, which is crucial to China’s rise.

　　From my mind’s view, recognizing the importance of English should not hinder us from pursuing more understanding of our own language and culture. Therefore, we should devote as much time and energy to Chinese as to English.

　　(译文) 关于英语比中文更受重视

　　在中国，英语明显比中文更受重视。这种现象在世界上其他国家非常少见。任何与英语有关的事物，即便只有一点点关系，都会兴旺发达，例如双语夏令营。

　　这一现象已被关注了一段时间。部分人认为这种不平衡的状况将使得中国的传统文化堪忧，因为语言是文化的媒介。然而，另有观点认为重视英语不一定是坏现象。在此此种观点的人看来，英语正是中国了解和学习西方国家所需的，这对中国崛起至关重要。

　　在我看来，认识到英语的重要性不应阻碍我们增加对本国语言和文化的了解。因此。我们应该在中文上投入跟英语同样的时间和精力。
