　　Folk customs have a difficult time in China that is undergoing such rapid development. Many fear that these customs will disappear as new concepts and ideas come in from outside of China. Folk art is especially at risk. Many people are no longer learning the traditional arts of China like those of paper-cutting or kite-making. Although enjoyed by many, they are in danger of fading away. Street folk art keeps many of these alive, but many people seem only interested in foreign arts and customs. Thus, Mid-autumn Day and the Spring Festival contend with the Western New Year, Christmas, and Valentine's Day. Folk customs like climbing a mountain during the Double Ninth Festival or cleaning the tombs during the Qingming Festival deserve to be remembered as they are integral part of the Chinese heritage. One aspect helping to preserve Chinese folk customs is the tourism industry. Tourists come and contribute to a folk economy that keeps these customs alive. Chinese immigrants also import these folk traditions into the new countries where they live. In this way, Chinese folk customs will have been spread abroad. These customs must not be given up, but co-exist with the new ideas that are shaping China today.

　　民俗在發(fā)展如此迅速的中國經(jīng)歷著困難時期。隨著來自國外的新觀念和新想法的`涌入，許多人擔心這些民俗會消失。民俗藝術(shù)尤為危險。許多人不再學習中國的傳統(tǒng)藝術(shù)，如剪紙或是制作風箏。盡管有很多人喜歡，但它們?nèi)悦媾R消逝的危險。街頭民俗藝術(shù)使得許多傳統(tǒng)藝術(shù)得以存活，但許多人似乎只對外國藝術(shù)和習俗感興趣。因此，中秋節(jié)和春節(jié)與西方新年、圣誕節(jié)和情人節(jié)展開了競爭。重陽節(jié)登山和清明節(jié)掃墓等民俗應當被銘記，因為它們是中國文化遺產(chǎn)不可或缺的組成部分。有助于保護中國民間習俗的一個方面就是旅游業(yè)。來來往往的旅游者為民俗經(jīng)濟做了貢獻，使得這些民俗得以保存。移民國外的中國人把這些民間傳統(tǒng)也一同帶到了他們居住的新國家。通過這種方式，中國民俗將會傳向國外。那些習俗不應被遺棄，而應與打造今日中國的新思想共存。
