Are Western Values Losing Their Sway?
London — THE West is suddenly suffused with self-doubt.
Centuries of superiority and global influence appeared to reach a new summit
with the collapse of the Soviet Union, as the countries, values and
civilization of the West appeared to have won the dark, difficult battle
with Communism.
That victory seemed especially sweet after the turn of China toward

清晨弃舟登岸
一顶软呢小轿，
走过繁花金陵
风中桂花香气
看到门前石狮，
三间兽头大门
这是传说中的贾府
我虽从未来过，
我母幼时所居，
她说过府中气度
要我留心步步
堂上银发老妇
必是太君外祖
她哭着拥我入怀
人人掩面而泣
拜过外祖太君
再拜两位舅母
还有珠哥寡嫂
三个姐姐妹妹
人人敞声屏气
忽听后院高声笑语
我自心内纳罕
是谁放诞无礼
且看珠帘启处
有女若神妃仙子
头戴金丝八宝
项上赤金盘螭
她粉面含春威不露
她丹唇未启笑先闻
原是凤姐琏大嫂子
她忽而悲我母逝
她又能化悲为喜
先去大舅家里
再去二舅家里
全是庭院深深
处处锦衣玉食
这就是传说中的贾府
这就是贾府我所See
外祖传我晚饭
和姐姐妹妹一起
饭毕清茶漱口
然后才是饮的
忽听脚步声响
笑言宝玉至此
一位年轻公子
项上系着美玉
那人我虽从未见过
何等眼熟如此！
他细心看过我罢
笑道与我旧识
送我颦颦二字
问我可否有玉
我以实言相告
他却突发颠狂
将扯下美玉狠命摔去
我想起身逃开
可归途难觅！

Let the century pass me by
Standing under night sky
Tomorrow means nothing
I was only a child then
Feeling barely alive when
I heard a song from the speaker of a passing car
And prayed to a dying star
The memory's fading
I can almost remember singing la, la la, la la la la
La la, la la, la la la la
We watched the end of the century

The way led along upon what had once been the embankment of a railroad. But
no train had run upon it for many years. The forest on either side swelled
up the slopes of the embankment and crested across it in a green wave of
trees and bushes. The trail was as narrow as a man's body, and was no more
than a wild-animal runway.
Occasionally, a piece of rusty iron, showing through the forest-mold,

Viet birds nest on southern boughs
