As China's national strength continues to grow, the country has long passed the era where the attitude of " Only the championship counts" prevailed.

随着中国国力的不断增强，早已过了“只有冠军才是王道” 的时代。

The Sui and Tang Dynasties were the heyday of feudal society in China, during which China became an international empire with the most powerful national strength and the most prosperous culture.

隋唐时期是中国封建社会的鼎盛时期，中国成为国力最强大、文化最繁荣的国际帝国。

The study of Su Tungpo's life is, therefore, at the same time a study of national degeneration through party strife, ending in the sapping of national strength and the triumphant misrule of the petty politicians.

研究苏东坡传记，同时也就是研究宋朝因朋党之争而衰微，终于导致国力耗竭，小人当政。

This sapping of national strength had started in the name of " social reform" to prevent " exploitation by private capital, " " for the benefit" of the always lovable common people of China, by an ardent believer in himself.

宋朝国力之削弱，始自实行新法以防“私人资本之剥削”，借此以谋“人民”之利益，而由一个狂妄自信的大臣任其事。
