phenomenon ？ Possible reasons could be listed as follows： for one thing，quitea few people， especially youngsters， hold that Chinese traditionalculture is out-dated and of little use in modern society. Perhaps， from theirperspectives，traditional culture form the distant past can hardly adapt to orkeep pace with the ever-changing new world. Moreover， exotic cultures，to some extent， have also posed a great challenge to the traditional cultureof China. As we can see， a large body of people have been attracted byforeign cultures which feature diversity， novelty and richness-Crazy fans offoreign TV programs， electronic products or even ways of life abound inour daily life.

然而，没有人可以否认传统文化的重要性。它是中国智慧和文明的结晶。一个不尊重传统文化的精髓的民族和个人是无法发展和强大的。因此，我们可以也应该做一些事情，来扭转现在人们对中国传统文化的重视的不可遏制的下降。
