After all, Cold War containment of the USSR meant virtually no trade and little social contact. Today, by contrast, the US not only has massive trade with China, but also extensive social contact, including 125,000 Chinese students attending American universities.
毕竟在美国对苏联的冷战遏制过程中，双方基本不存在任何贸易往来，社会间接触也少之又少。相比之下如今的美国不仅与中国有着巨额双边贸易，还具备广泛的社会接触，其中包括12.5万名在美国各大学求学的中国留学生。
