If is like in the 1960s and 1970s when a lot of American China watchers just looked at it from the outside. If they had had an understanding of Chinese history and culture, then they would not have had such a rosy picture and believed that the Cultural Revolution was bringing new hope to China.
像六○、七○年代許多美國的中國通，就只看到表面；如果對中國的歷史、文化有所瞭解，就不會為美麗辭藻所惑，而相信文革能為中國帶來新希望。
