We must recognise clearly the fact that, aside from Europe, a rapid post-war expansion of Chinese studies has taken place in American universities backed by sums of money undreamed of in Britain. Then there are the newcomers to the field, like Canada and Australia, which are trying hard to catch up, and whose provision is now on a level with ours.
我們必須認清一個事實，除了歐洲的法、德等國之外，美國在戰後投入了我們不敢夢想的財力和人力發展中國研究；即使是漢學界的後起之秀，加拿大和澳洲，也將迎頭趕上。
