While famus freign architects are invited t lead the designs f landmark buildings inChina such as the new CCTV twer and the Natinal Center fr the Perfrming Arts, manyexcellent Chinese architects are making great effrts t take the center stage.
Their effrts have been prven fruitful. Wang Shu, a 49-year-ld Chinese architect, wnthe 2012 Pritzker Architecture Prize —— which is ften referred t as the Nbel Prize inarchitecture —— n February 28. He is the first Chinese citizen t win this award.
Wang serves as head f the Architecture Department at the China Academy f Art (CAA).His ffice is lcated at the Xiangshan campus(校园) f the university in Hangzhu, ZhejiangPrvince. Many buildings n the campus are his riginal creatins.
The style f the campus is quite different frm that f mst Chinese universities. Manyvisitrs were amazed by the cmplex architectural space and abundant building types. Thecurves(曲线) f the buildings perfectly match the rise and fall f hills, frming a unique view.
Wang cllected mre than 7 millin abandned bricks f different ages. He asked thewrkers t use traditinal techniques t make the bricks int walls, rfs and crridrs. Thiscreatin attracted a lt f attentin thanks t its mixture f mdern and traditinal Chineseelements(元素).
Wang's wrks shw a deep understanding f mdern architecture and a gd knwledgef traditins. Thrugh such a balance, he had created a new type f Chinese architecture, saidTada And, the winner f the 1995 Pritzker Prize.
Wang believes traditins shuld nt be sealed in glass bxes at museums.“That is nlyevidence that traditins nce existed,” he said.
“Many Chinese peple have a misunderstanding f traditins. They think traditin meansld things frm the past. In fact, traditin als refers t the things that have been develpingand that are still being created,” he said.
“Tday, many Chinese peple are learning Western styles and theries rather thanfcusing n Chinese traditins. Many peple tend t talk abut traditins withut knwingwhat they really are, ” said Wang.
The study f traditins shuld be cmbined with practice. Otherwise, the recreatin ftraditins wuld be artificial and empty, he said.

Nwadays peple rarely read fr enjyment, even thugh reading bks used t be nef mst peple's recreatins. It was an escape frm the surrunding wrld, away frmtechnlgy. Hwever, these days has seen a sharp decline in hw much time peple spendreading bks, news articles, shrt stries, and many ther macr-reading (全文阅读)materials.
Scial media that have cme ut, such as Twitter and Facebk, have shrtened theamunt f time we need t read and prcess infrmatin.

Five minutes n Twitter can catch peple up n their news fr therest f the day. Twitter and ther scial media sites can be regarded as micr-reading, which isa technlgy that takes bits f articles and summarizes them in a few brief sentences.
But Twitter isn't always able t thrughly summarize a tpic. A headline r summarycan be misleading if the reader des nt knw the cntext. This can lead t misinterpretatinsf what an article is actually abut.
The ther day I was criticized fr ne f my clumns. The criticism was strange, because it was barely cnnected t the article. When I cuntered their argument, saying that this pinin wasn't related t the article, they said they didn't read the stry, nly the headline.
As a clumnist. I spend a gd amunt f time writing these clumns and I hpe peple can read them with great attentin. There are pints that I am unable t sum up in a single line.If readers dn't bther t read the article and nly read the headline, they are nt ging t get the pint f the piece f writing. This is why, as a sciety, we can't fully rely n scial media fr all f ur infrmatin.
