????Honorable
judges,ladies
and
gentlemen:
????Kipling
said:“East
is
east,and
West
is
West,and
never
the
twain
shall
meet!“But
now,a
century
later,they
have
met.
????They
have
met
in
business.
They
have
met
in
education.
They
have
met
in
the
arts.
????Some
would
argue
that
these
meetings
leave
us
with
a
choice
between
East
and
West,but
I
believe
the
best
future
lies
in
the
creative
combination
of
both
worlds.
We
can
make
Western
ideas,customs
and
technology
our
own,and
adapt
them
to
our
use.
We
can
enjoy
the
best
of
all
worlds,because
our
tradition
is,above
all,one
of
selecting
the
best
and
making
it
our
own.
????But,do
Western
styles
and
values
threaten
our
identity?
????History
makes
it
easy
for
us
to
think
so-perhaps
too
easy.
????Some
people
seem
to
think
that
adopting
Western
customs,such
as
a
bride
wearing
white-which
has
long
been
a
color
of
mourning
in
China,instead
of
the
traditional
Chinese
red
for
her
wedding,is
another
submission
to
foreign
intervention,--a
betrayal
of
our
heritage,they
say.
????They
fear
that
as
we
become
“globalized“,we
will
no
longer
be
Chinese.
????I
do
not
agree.
????History
teaches
that
a
strong
and
confident
nation
is
at
ease
in
learning
from
the
outside
world.
????The
wedding
of
Eastern
and
Western
cultures,whether
in
white
gowns
or
red,brings
us
variety.
????It
is
a
rich
banquet
of
special
foods
from
all
over
the
world.
????As
an
amateur
gourmet
of
Chinese
cuisine,our
superb
flavours
delight
me.
????But
my
Chinese
taste
appreciates
good
food
from
any
land.
????I
even
allow
the
convenience
of
McDonald
s
a
place
in
my
life
without
giving
up
my
good
taste.
????My
grandfather
taught
me
to
hum
tunes
of
Beijing
opera
from
the
time
I
was
very
young;
they
are
deep
in
my
spirit,part
of
my
soul.
????I
love
Beijing
opera,because
it
always
reminds
me
of
who
I
am.
????But
I
am
also
a
fan
of
modern
pop
music,the
No.1
fan
of
Spice
Girls
on
campus.
????of
course,it
goes
far
beyond
food,music
and
dance.
It
goes
into
values
and
ways
of
thinking
about
the
world.
????Once
upon
a
time,or
so
my
teacher
told
me,a
Chinese
boy
and
an
American
girl
had
a
squabble.
????Both
wanted
to
keep
a
bunny
rabbit
they
had
found
in
the
garden.
????Surely
you
ve
seen
a
rabbit
sunning
himself
in
the
grass.
????Nothing
is
more
lovable,nothing
more
natural.
No
wonder
they
wanted
him.
????The
Chinese
boy
played
his
er-hu.
Happiness
and
joy,longing
and
passion,filled
the
air.
The
little
rabbit
swayed
gently
and
began
to
move
his
ears
in
the
direction
of
the
music.
He
liked
what
he
heard.
????The
girl
then
took
out
her
violin
and
played
it
to
produce
beautiful
melodies
of
her
own.
????The
rabbit
began
to
bounce
in
her
direction.
????So
intent
were
the
children
on
their
own
music
that
neither
paid
the
other
any
attention.
????The
competing
melodies
confused
the
little
rabbit
and
he
did
not
know
which
way
to
turn
.Unable
to
attract
the
little
creature,both
children
gave
up
;they
walked
away,in
different
directions,leaving
the
rabbit.
.
.alone.
????But,what
if
they
listened,what
if
they
really
heard
each
other
s
music,instead
of
always
playing
their
own
tunes?
????When
I
hear
the
music
of
a
violin,rich
with
the
joys
of
men
and
women
who
came
together
and
sang
and
danced
.
I
hear
echoes
of
the
music
of
the
grass
lands,of
the
hills,of
the
rivers.of
my
own
native
land.
????Is
music
mine
and
yours,or
is
it
ours?
????What
I
want
to
hear
is
the
er-hu
and
the
violin
played
together,in
rhythm
and
in
tune.
????Together,we
can
produce
new
and
beautiful
music,rich
with
textures
and
sounds
that
can
only
be
made
in
the
harmony.
????The
rabbit
sits
in
the
grass
in
the
ever-warming
sun.
Waiting
for
us
to
play,waiting
for
the
symphony
to
begin.
????Will
he
have
to
wait
forever?
The
choice
is
ours.
Thank
you.
