网友热议：作为中国人有哪些值得骄傲的理由？应该被人们接受或庆祝吗？

Why are you proud of China?
In multiple respects. My primay pride comes from China's sheer vastness together with marvelous geographic diversity, which outshines most countries on planet earth. China has ALL of these and more:

你为什么为中国感到骄傲?
在很多方面我都感到自豪。我最骄傲的事是中国幅员辽阔，地貌丰富，地球上大多数国家都望尘莫及。以下这些都是中国的：

We are certainly very blessed/fortunate in being born to this rich ancient culture.
Chinese culture is much richer than almost all (maybe all) other cultures/civilizations, just because

我们能出生在这个丰富的古老文化中，当然非常幸运了。
中国文化比几乎所有(甚至所有)文化/文明都要丰富得多，因为

we already have writings from the Shang Dynasty 4000 years ago, and this written tradition has continued unbroken through the millenia, giving us a humongous volume of literature to digest — a rich feast of ideas and history and ….. (unlike most other cultures where the written literature is much less voluminous) in language which we can understand even now (I’ve just been reading the Analects, Laozi, Mencius ……)

我们在4000年前商朝时就已经有书写文字了，这种文字传统几千年来一直代代传承，积累了大量的文学作品供后世理解赏析—一场丰富的思想和历史的盛宴(不像其他文化，书面文学非常少)，使用的是我们如今仍能理解的语言(我刚刚读了《论语》、《老子》、《孟子》......)

China has such a big population! The advantage of having such huge populations is that just by “chance/probability” there would be a big number of extremely bright people (which is less likely if the population over the historic period is low eg small countries like Portugal).
So we rejoice in the rich culture that we inherit …..

中国有如此庞大的人口！庞大人口的优势是，就算只是“偶然/小概率”，也会出现大量非常聪明的人才(如果一个国家的人口很少，例如葡萄牙这样的小国，这种情况就不太可能发生了)。
所以我们为我们继承的丰富文化感到高兴.....

The history of China is a process of addition. Starting from A, then A+B+C+D+E+F++++, China eventually became the country with the largest population. We have retained the strengths of all ethnic groups and abandoned the weaknesses of all ethnic groups. We have integrated all excellent cultures and abandoned all inferior ones.
After a long period of historical accumulation, we have become the present China, the present Chinese people.

中国的历史就是一个不断积累的过程。从A开始，然后A+B+C+D+E+F++++，中国最终成为了全世界人口最多的国家。我们既保留了各民族的长处，又摒弃了各民族的不足。我们融合了一切优秀的文化，摒弃了一切劣等的文化。
经过长期的历史积累，我们成为了现在的中国，现在的中国人。

Look at other countries, killing, GENO...., plunder, exploitation, enslavement.
They can invent airplanes and use them to bomb different races.
They can invent atomic bombs and use them to bomb various types.
They will not let other countries surpass them, or even use war to prevent them.

“和”

If they understand the meaning of this word, the world will become heaven.

再看看其他国家，他们的历史上充满了杀戮、种族灭绝、掠夺、剥削和奴役。
他们可以发明飞机，并用它们轰炸其他民族。
他们可以发明原子弹，并用它们来轰炸其他民族。
他们不允许其他国家超越他们，甚至会用战争来破坏其他国家的发展。
“和”
如果他们明白这个字的意思，世界将成为人间天堂。

What's awesome about being Chinese? I'm a Pakistani girl and I love knowing about Chinese people.
Lots of Chinese people regard Pakistani as true friends. Here I give some my own ideas.
Awesome part of being a Chinese:
1. Witness his/her country develo in an amazing speed. If you leave your hometown for a year, and you will certainly find new buildings and infrastructure in the city.
2. Delicious food. We Chinese are proud of our food. Chinese cuisine is quite different in different region, but almost of them are GOOD! I do love all these food even though some may look bizarre for you.
3. So easy to find people from the same country, no matter which country you live in.
4. Be proud of our culture, history.

作为中国人，有什么了不起的地方？我是一个巴基斯坦女孩，我喜欢了解中国人。
很多中国人都把巴基斯坦视为真正的朋友。我想说说我自己的一些想法。
作为一个中国人，有一点非常棒：
1. 可以见证自己的国家以惊人的速度向前发展。只要你离开家乡一年，就一定能在城市里发现新的建筑和基础设施。
2. 美味的食物。中国人以中国美食为荣。中餐在不同的地区有着很大的差异，但几乎都很好吃！我真的很喜欢这些食物，尽管对你而言，有些食物可能很奇怪。
3. 不管你住在哪个国家，都很容易找到同胞。
4. 为我们的文化和历史感到骄傲。

This is difficult to answer since many of us grew up bring bullied and were brought to other parts of the world without resources unlike today new generation with so much prosperity that happened with last 30 years of unprecedented economic miracle of that ever exsted since the founding of humankind. It is neither accepted/celebrated but should be realized and admired by many on the global stage. You will now find the largest and fastest development only in China.

这很难回答，因为我们中有许多人都是在欺凌中长大的，没有资源，不像今天的新一代，在过去30年经历了前所未有的经济奇迹，这是自人类出现以来都从未出现的奇迹。不需要接受或庆祝，但应该得到全世界的认可和钦佩。现在你会发现，规模最大、速度最快的发展只出现在中国。

Are you proud to be a Chinese person?
Yes I am. I am a foreign born Chinese. I was born in Indonesia to be exact. My family left Indonesia for the US when I was 13 after wng green card lottery.

作为一个中国人，你感到自豪吗？
是的，我很自豪。我是一个在海外出生的中国人。确切地说，我出生在印度尼西亚。在我13岁时，我的家人赢得了绿卡彩票，离开印度尼西亚前往美国。

When I was a kid, I used to be made fun of by the native Indonesians stating how poor China ( was) and how ugly and stupid Chinese people are. They said my ancestors lived in huts and were uncivilized. I was so ashamed being born a Chinese back then. Then my parents had me watched a lot of Chinese TV series, especially the historical dramas. There I learned my ancestors were not uncivilized. The ancestors were very civilized. In fact Han civilization rivaled that of Roman and Egypt. The ancestors invented gunpowder, silk among other things. They built palaces and Great Wall hundreds and hundreds of years ago and some are still standing today. Their writings still in use today, albeit with some adjustments

当我还是个孩子的时候，我经常被印尼本地人取笑，说中国有多苦多穷，中国人有多丑多蠢。他们说我的祖先住在茅屋里，像野人一样。那时候我曾为自己身为中国人而感到羞耻。我的父母让我观看了许多中国电视剧，尤其是历史剧。我开始了解，我的祖先并非野蛮人。我的祖先是非常文明的。事实上，汉代文明足可以与罗马和埃及文明相媲美。我的祖先发明了火药、丝绸和其他东西。早在几百年前，他们就建造了宫殿和长城，有些建筑物至今仍屹立不倒。他们的文字流传至今。

Yes, the ancestors had their moments when they got beat by foreign powers in the 100 years of humiliation but hey us Chinese got back on our feet and be great again

是的，我们的祖先在近代的百年屈辱中被外国列强打败过，但是我们中国人重新站起来了，重归荣耀。

Why are you proud of China?

你为什么为中国感到骄傲？

Feel like I want to answer this question. I was born in a Chinese family in which half of my family, my mother side, is very anti China. I think the whole that side of the family hated the Chinese with vengeance (I know the government and the country are different but I was too young to tell the difference). Everything Chinese did was wrong and hated. Everything American said was true and right (we could listen to Voice of America then). I don't blame them because my grandfather worked hard to made it and the stripped everything from him. He decided to stay rather than ran away to HK like many rich Shanghainese did. My mother and her siblings went to the best boarding school in Shanghai and took care of by nannies. All of those gone a few years into new China.

我想回答一下这个问题。我出生在一个中国家庭，我母亲这边的家人都非常反华，他们对政府恨之入骨（我知道政府和国家不是一回事，但我当时太年轻了，说不清有什么不同）。
他们觉得中国所做的一切都是错的。美国人说的才都是真的、对的（那时我们可以收听美国之音）。
我不怪他们，因为我的外祖父努力工作多年才获得成功，但被剥夺了一切。他决定留在国内，没有像大批上海有钱人那样逃到香港。
我母亲和她的兄弟姐妹小时候上的是上海最好的寄宿学校，由保姆照顾。但在新中国成立几年后，他们失去了一切。

Anyway, I was fed the anti government emotion constantly. It was exhausting to feel shamed and even scared by just being a Chinese. After I grew up and moved to Canada. It took me a long time to unlearn the teaching. I bite my tongue just to refrain from justifying myself after telling others I was from China. You know why some Chinese new immigrants (not all, some) don't want to mingle with locals? Because they instinctively feel the locals look down on them. Maybe it is true, maybe it is just in their head, but the fear is real.

我从小被不断灌输一些言论。因为自己是中国人而感到羞耻甚至害怕，我受够了。长大后我去到了加拿大。我花了很长时间才忘掉这些言论。在介绍自己来自中国后，我会咬紧牙关，不为自己多做解释。你知道为什么有些中国来的新移民（不是全部人都这样，只有一部分）不愿意跟当地人来往吗？是因为他们本能地觉得当地人会瞧不起他们。也许这是事实，也许这只是他们自己的想法，但他们内心的恐惧担忧是真实存在的。

After a few years I started to build my confidence about my origin. Luckily I did not turn into nationalist like many others did after spent some time overseas. It is also not because China is so much better than before and still better every year, but because I don't have to bind my self esteem with my origin.

几年后，我才开始对自己的出身有了信心。幸运的是，我不像许多在海外生活了一段时间的人那样，变成民族主义者。并不是因为中国有了长足的发展，而且一年比一年好，而是因为我再也不必把我的自尊和出身捆绑在一起了。

Now back to China pride. After I lived in 3 countries outside of China, I went back to work. The moments I am very proud are when I see genuinely caring Chinese who passionately want to do a better job everyday or simply being nice to others. I once rented a small self storage place and moved my fridge, TVs and sofa in there. It was snowing, and one piece of sofa was soiled during moving. The girl who works in the self storage office saw and ran to grab wet tissue and clean the sofa for me, even though it is not part of her job at all. She is just being nice. There are many Chinese workers are like her, warmhearted, helpful, want to do a good job, and willing to learn. My driver, my maid, my realtor, the tea lady in the office, a security guard in the bank. Many of them who did little nice things for me, never asking for anything in return. The workers and employees, they are willing to go extra mile to do a better job everyday, they sincerely want to learn and become better. Those are the moments when I feel really really really proud that I was a Chinese myself.

现在说回中国自豪感。在3个海外国家生活过后，我回中国工作了。我感到非常自豪的时刻是，我看到了真诚体贴的中国人，他们每天都热情地做好自己的工作，对别人友善相待。
我曾经租过一个小小的自助储藏间，把我的冰箱、电视和沙发都搬了进去。那天下雪了，搬家时有一张沙发弄脏了。
在自助仓库办公室工作的女孩看到后，拿湿纸巾跑过来帮我把沙发擦干净，尽管这根本不是她的分内工作。她就是那么友善。很多中国人都和她一样，古道热肠、乐于助人、工作负责、愿意学习。
我的司机，我的保姆，我的房地中介，茶水女工，银行保安等等，他们中有很多人都曾不计回报地帮过我。
工人和员工愿意加倍努力，把工作做得更好，他们真心追求上进，精益求精。
每当这个时刻，我都为自己是个中国人感到非常非常自豪。

Seeing the answers on here I feel a little weird and like my own answer is very… narcissistic?
While it may be more of an Asians in general thing, I am so proud of my Chinese genes when it come to looking youthful. Honestly, I’m 20 and still look like 15 and my sister is 34 with a kid and she honestly looks like she’s still in her early 20s. My mum has crossed the 50 years old mark and still looks almost exactly the same as when she was 35. (I can’t include my dad necessarily, he got some bad genes where he started growing white hair at his mid-30s, sorry daddy.)

看到这里的答案，我觉得有点奇怪，好像我的答案太过自恋了？
虽然我整体更像亚洲人，但每次人们说我看起来很年轻时，我都为自己的中国基因感到自豪。说实话，我已经20岁了，但看起来还和15岁似的，我姐姐都34岁了，有个孩子，但说真的她看起来也就只有20岁出头。我妈妈都50多岁了，但看起来和35岁时几乎一模一样。(我爸爸就没这么幸运了，他遗传了一些不好的基因，35岁左右就开始长白发了，真遗憾，爸爸。)
