在经历百年来的挫折困苦之后,对于中国人而言,心怀希望本身即是历史的酬劳。1915年9月,陈独秀在《青年杂志》(即后来的《新青年》)上发表《敬告青年》一文,感叹中国人的衰老:在中国,人多以“少年老成”相谓,而在英美等国家,却以“年长而勿衰(Keepyoungwhilegrowingold)”相勖。“青年之于社会,犹新鲜活泼细胞之在人身。新陈代谢,陈腐朽败者无时不在天然淘汰之途”。 After a century of frustration and hardships, it is a historical reward for the Chinese people to cherish their own hopes. In September 1915, Chen Duxiu published a speech entitled “Young Men to Men,” in “Youth Magazine” (later “New Youth”), who lamented the Chinese’s aging. In China, people often regard “young people becoming mature,” while in Britain and the United States, etc. The state, however, looks like “Keeping through while groaning.” “Young people in society, still fresh and lively cells in the human body. Metabolism, decadent losers naturally out of the way all the time.”
