A: oh! My God! Fancy meeting you here.

A: 哦，天啊！太巧了，在这儿碰到你。

B: Yes, what a surprise! We haven't seen each other almost half a year.

B: 是呀！真没想到。我们已有半年没见了吧。

A: Almost. Where are you heading now?

A: 差不多。你们去哪儿？

C: Oh.we are going to attend a meeting about making Chinese culture various and globalized.

C: 哦，我们正要参加一个关于使中国文化多样化和全球化的会议。

A: It's so significant. The east and west culture is a comparatively separate value system of their own society, and each style of culture has advantages and dregs. So the two cultures should nourish and benefit each other.

A: 这会议很有意义。东西方文化是适应它们各自社会的相对独立的价值体系，每一种文化都有它们自己的优点和不足，因此，两种文化应相互充实。

B: Right. It seems to be quite important to Chinese culture. The two-thousand-year

feudual rule made Chinese traditional culture self-closed and isolated, and it's so short of democracy and open, which is the chief essence of the west culture.

C:Through the meeting, we want to make it the beginning that Chinese culture fully absorb the essence of the west culture. The 2008 Olympics is a desirable chance.

B: 对，对中国文化来说，这一点显得尤为重要。两千年的封建统治使中国传统文化自我封闭，自我独立，严重缺乏民主和开放性，而这一点正是西方文化的精华部分。

C:通过这次会议，我们想开一个头，使中国传统文化全面吸收西方文化中的精华。2008年奥运会就是一个难得的机会。

A: I see. You apply to the chance of the 2008 Olympics to make your traditional culture absorb the advantage of the west culture, and make it various and globalized.

A: 我明白了。你们想借助2008年奥运会使贵国的传统文化吸收西文化的优点，使之多样化、国际化。

B、C: Yes. Only the essence.

B、C: 正是，仅吸收精华。

A: I understand it. But I think Chinese culture has many advantages.

A: 我理解这一点。但中国文化也有很多优点。

C: Of course. When Chinese culture absorbs the essence of the west culture, we maintain and carry forward it.

C: 当然了。在中国文化吸收西方文化精华的同时，我们要保留并弘扬传统文化的精华。

A: Good. The Olympics is a belt of the east and west culture. It advances the two different culture system's development. Suppose that the west and east cultures should merge into a more perfect and vigorous system with the development of the Olympics in the future.

A: 很好！奥林匹克运动是东西方文化联系的纽带，它带动两种不同的文化体系共同发展，可以想想在不久的未来，随着奥运的发展，东西方文化将会融为一个更加完美和充满生机活力的整体。

B: I hope so.

B: 但愿如此吧。

A:所以，我们既要看到竞争的激烈也要注重合作。

B:只有这样，既有竞争又有合作，才能够带动文化的多元化发展。

C:比如说，在NBA的赛场上,竞争成为选拔球队的唯一方法,球员们筋疲力尽为的是什么,就是为了与对手争个输赢,分个高下.2008年即将在中国北京举行的奥运会,比赛项目非常之多,但这一个个的奖杯,有哪一个不是通过竞争得来。从以上的例子中,我们能够深切体会竞争在我们生活中的重要地位.我们说社会竞争多于合作,并不是说合作就不存在.我们的社会中也存在着合作,只是小范围的合作,大范围的竞争,竞争始终多于合作.

B: 竞争推动社会发展,推动人类进步.所以,我觉得现代社会是竞争大于合作,竞争大于合作也是现代社会发展的必然.。

A: so, we should not only see the fierce competition also should notice to cooperation. B: only in this way, both competition and cooperation, and can only be driven cultural diversity development.

C: for example, in the NBA's pitch, the only team competition become selection method, the players to what, is to exhaustion rival win an argument, points a draw. Of 2008 is held in Beijing, China's Olympic Games, sports very much, but this one trophy, is there anyone not through the competition to come. From the above example, we can deeply experience competition the important position in our life. We say social competition than cooperation, not be to say cooperation would not exist. In our society, but also exist the cooper

ation of small-scale cooperation, a wide range of competition which always more than cooperation.

B: competition to promote social development and promote human progress. So, I think the modern society is greater than cooperation and competition competition than cooperation is the necessity of the development of modern society.
