Features: Our ancestors created unparalleled splendid culture in the long history. Compared to other ancient civilizations, the roots of Chinese culture are deeper in the people. Ancient Rome was indeed extremely powerful militarily and feared far and wide, but its culture had relatively shallow roots among the people. The invasion of barbarians not only destroyed Rome but also obliterated its culture. In modern China, although it might be conquered militarily, the Chinese have always played the role of conquerors in culture. The fertile land and hardworking, intelligent people of China have historically created enormous wealth. The technological development of ancient China was at the world's leading level in many aspects for a long time. According to historians, until 1820, China's gross national product was the highest in the world. The wealth of China was widely known in the Western world to the extent that some of them thought China was literally a land of gold. We should also mention the heroes in Chinese history. Their heart-stirring struggles, sun-shining battles, and earth-shaking achievements added an element of excitement and youthful passion to our history, and provided the strength to inspire youthful ambition. Reading their stories, gaining knowledge became secondary. But it cannot be denied that we have fallen behind in modern times. Falling behind is not shameful. Acknowledging the reality of falling behind, learning from others' strengths, and combining the excellent elements of our traditions to quickly revitalize our great Chinese nation is the mission of our generation of youth, the historical responsibility handed down to us by the five thousand years of Chinese history. We will surely live up to history and live up to the future, shouldering the mission and accomplishing this great task!
