The attitude towards the classics
The classics are the wisdom of human beings. As a result, we should treasure them as much as possible. However, with the development of society, we should advance it at the same time. In my view, it is very important for ours beings to venture into the unknown and treasure the classics at the same time.
China is an old country which has a long history. Our ancestors left us plenty of treasures, such as the Analects of Confucius. Military Science of Sun Zi and so on. However, there is a lot of negative things they left, for example, the prejudice against the female. So, it is our duty to choose the active parts to inherit and change or abandon the negative parts in the culture. Only if we have the ability to distinguish the negative and the active part in classics can we hold the correct attitude to the classics.
On the other hand, with the development of technology, the society changes frequently nowadays. The more knowledge we get, the more things we do not know we find. As the young generation, we have no excuse not to explore the unknown. Although we have learnt lots of principles now, we are still curious about the outer space. the nature and so on. There are still thousands of problems waiting us to solve. It is our duty to find out the answers and keys to the mysteries.
Because there are no castles in the sky, any finding is base on the past. As far as I am concerned, we do not have to make a choice between treasuring classics and venturing into the unknown, because radically they are not contrary. What we should do is to develop the active parts of classics and make innovations based on it. As a result, we can hand on a prefect answer to history.
