THE CHINESE CHARACTER
There is a theory among Occidentals that the Chinaman is inscrutable,full of secret thoughts,and impossible for us to understand.It may be that a greater experience of China would have brought me to share this opinion; but I could see nothing to support it during the time when I was working in that country.I talked to the Chinese as I should have talked to English people,and they answered me much as English people would have answered a Chinese whom they considered educated and not wholly unintelligent.I do not believe in the myth of the "Subtle Oriental":I am convinced that in a game of mutual deception an Englishman or American can beat a Chinese nine times out of ten.But as many comparatively poor Chinese have dealings with rich white men,the game is often played only on one side.Then,no doubt,the white man is deceived and swindled; but not more than a Chinese mandarin would be in London.
One of the most remarkable things about the Chinese is their power of securing the affection of foreigners.Almost all Europeans like China,both those who come only as tourists and those who live there for many years.In spite of the Anglo-Japanese Alliance,I can recall hardly a single Englishman in the Far East who liked the Japanese as well as the Chinese.Those who have lived long among them tend to acquire their outlook and their standards.New arrivals are struck by obvious evils:the beggars,the terrible poverty,the prevalence of disease,the anarchy and corruption in politics.Every energetic Westerner feels at first a strong desire to reform these evils,and of course they ought to be reformed.

有一种理论认为,除Occidentals支那是高深莫测,充满了秘密的想法,和我们不可能理解.这可能是一个更大的经验,中国将会给我带来了分享这个意见,但我什么也看不见,以支持它在的时候,我是在该国工作.我谈的中文为我应该讲英语的人,他们回答了我很多的人会英语回答了他们认为中国的教育,而不是完全无知.我不相信的神话,“隐蔽东方” :我相信,在一场比赛中相互欺骗一个英国人或美国人可以战胜了中国的9倍的10个.但是,正如许多比较贫穷的中国打交道的丰富的白人男子,游戏往往是只打了一方.然后,毫无疑问,白人是欺骗和欺诈,但不超过中文普通话将在伦敦举行.
其中最引人注目的事情是他们在中国的力量确保感情的外国人.几乎所有的欧洲人喜欢中国,无论是谁只能是外国游客和谁那里生活了许多年.尽管英日同盟,我记得几乎没有一个单一的英国人在远东谁喜欢日本以及中国.这些长期生活谁它们之间往往会获得他们的世界观和他们的标准.新来港定居人士受到明显的弊端:对乞丐,可怕的贫穷,疾病流行的无政府主义和腐败政治.每一个充满活力的西方人认为在第一次的强烈愿望改革这些罪恶,当然,他们应该加以改革.
