按照中国传统,公元2008,是农历戊子年。在干支纪年当中,“戊”字,本有万物茂盛的意思。《群书考异》说,“戊,茂也,言物皆茂盛”。这样的解释总让人联想到朝气蓬勃,联想到蓄势待发,联想到革故鼎新。或许仅是巧合,1978,1968,1958不少这样的年头都被与“变革”放在了一起。虽然仅仅是一种形式,我们还是要在新年来临之际有所回忆,因为记忆不仅仅是历史的一部分,同样也是一种生存方式。 According to Chinese tradition, AD 2008 is the lunar calendar of the year. In the dry and branch years, “P ” word, there is all the lush meanings. “Group test differences,” said, “E, Mao also, the words are lush.” This explanation is always reminiscent of vibrant, think of ready, think of new ideas. Perhaps only by coincidence, 1978, 1968, 1958, many such years have been with the “change” put together. Although it is only a form, we still have memories of the advent of the new year, because memory is not only a part of history but also a way of living.
