　　近十年來出現了一個值得深思的現象，人們越來越關注中國的傳統文化，書架上擺滿了詮釋中國古老智慧、講述中華燦爛歷史和傳奇人物的書籍。有些人甚至建議，將國學典籍列為學校必修課程。人們興趣高漲的原因主要有兩方面。首先，那些百年甚至千年未決的歷史懸案勾起了人們極大的好奇心。再者，人們逐漸意識到，古老的中華文化是一座取之不盡的金礦，從中可以發掘很多經驗教訓以應用到實踐中來解決現在的問題。

　　The last decade has witnessed an intriguing phenomenon that people are paying more and more attention to traditional Chinese culture.

To begin with, tremendous curiosity is aroused by those pending history mysteries of hundreds or even thousands of years. Furthermore, people come to realise that ancient Chinese culture serves as a gold mine from which inexhaustible lessons can be learned and put into practice to solve the current problems.
