进取的中国人形成世世代代的信念：只要经过不懈的奋斗便

能获得更好的生活。人们必须通过自己的勤奋、勇气、创意

和决心迈向繁荣，而不是依赖于社会和他人的援助。每个中

国人都是中国梦的参与者和创造者。中国梦是民族的梦，也

是每个中国人的梦。

Realizing the great national

rejuvenation, which we define as the Chinese Dream, has been the

greatest Chinese expectation since modern times. It basically means achieving prosperity for the

country, renewal of the nation and happiness for the people, thus ensuring that every enterprising Chinese carries, generation after generation, the firm conviction that a better life is accomplished

through persistent effort. People should achieve their prosperity

through diligence, courage, creativity and determination instead

of aid from society or other people. Each individual is a participant and a designer in the cause of

realizing the Chinese Dream, for it is a dream not only for the entire

nation but also for every Chinese.

多年的历史，其间经历了不断的发展、提高和完善。水墨画

的创作工具和材料也是具有浓厚中国

特色的毛笔、宣纸、墨，

其作品特点也与此紧密相关。例如，水和墨互相调和，使作

品具有干湿浓淡的层次。水墨和宣纸的交融渗透也使画作善

于表现丰富的意象，从而达到独特的审美效果。水墨画在中

国绘画史上具有很高的地位，甚至被认为是衡量东方绘画艺

术水平的标准。
