我仍然记得，在我小时候，许多孩子们都很喜欢看成龙的电影、《射雕英雄传》、1986版《西游记》等。中国武术自小扎根在孩子们的心里。
每个人都是独一无二的，喜欢着不同的运动。然而有这样一种运动，既是搏击格斗术，也是健身运动；既能强身健体，也能培养精神意志，这种内外兼修的运动就是中国武术。
在武术的影响下，一项新的运动诞生了：跑酷。通过观察欧洲最受欢迎的体育项目，我们可以一睹中国武术在今天的影响力。

首先，西方国家的孩子们需要在拳击和足球之间做出选择。拳击在希腊发明，随着皇室成员的不断加入在英国愈发流行。然而，许多人认为，拳击是一项暴力运动，它本身的暴力性和危险性会引发长期的负面影响。后来，美国和欧洲开始举办非法的拳击比赛，这项运动逐渐与仇恨和鲜血联系起来。
对于足球运动，一些父母认为它只能当作一种单纯的爱好，有时还会浪费时间。但对许多人来说，足球是项很酷的运动，球员们激情奔跑，躲避对手以此得到分数。为了争做唯一一支赢得比赛的队伍，足球运动有助于加强团队凝聚力。同时，它也为观众带来乐趣。无论如何，深受欧洲人喜爱的足球运动是中国发明的，并非英国或意大利。
当然，拳击、足球和中国武术之间有什么联系呢？几年前，许多人会选择练习足球或拳击，但现在即使是欧洲最小的城市也有了武术训练中心。父母和孩子对此感到很满意，有时他们甚至一起学习武术。中国武术带去了其他西方运动所不具备的事物：稳定、协调、身心平衡。对于每一个西方人来说，中国武术打开了一扇通往另一种文化的大门，赋予了一种获得幸福的方式。无论在哪里，每个人都可以过上安逸的生活。
随着越来越多的人接触到武术，中国文化也传扬到世界各地。在欧洲，武术训练学校最早出现在西班牙和意大利。各个年龄段的人都可以练习武术，这是多么独特的经历啊。

每个人都想象过这样一个场景：武术练习者可以跳上屋顶，越过障碍，只身一人对抗十几个对手，并且大获全胜，他们的每一个动作看起来都如此完美。许多外国人梦想过自己能像动物一样在屋顶之间飞跃，在任何地方击败任何对手。就像武侠小说或电影一样，双手成为武器，每一次呼吸都赋予自己力量，与世界、与宇宙融为一体，武术让他们与自己的英雄梦更近一步。在现实中，尽管人不能飞，但可以进入完美的宁静状态，达到身心上的平衡。武术展现出生活中栩栩如生的流动，对我们的健康大有裨益。
与其他运动相比，武术需要更加努力的练习与平和的心态。每一个动作都需要达到完美。在武术中，“气”的运用是达到内在与外在的统一的一个关键。
相信每个人都看过《羞羞的铁拳》（沈腾的电影），电影中沈腾的一句经典台词“你过来啊”在年轻人当中备受欢迎。我们喜欢在遇到困难时使用这句话，例如在面试、考试时，甚至在邀请自己喜欢的人出去吃饭时。不同的人用不同的语气在不同的场合说这个词，但产生的效果是一样的。

玛丽亚·弗洛里娜 (Maria Florina) 从7岁时开始学习武术，从高中开始学习汉语，并开始进一步了解中国文化。玛丽亚小时候肺部有问题，而中国武术能帮助她缓解压力、恢复身体。玛丽亚曾说，如果没有武术的魔力，她不会发现如此丰富的文化之美。她从未去过中国，但她最大的梦想是参观中国少林寺。大多数留学生都学过武术，但中国武术的影响并不止于此，武术创造了一项新运动：跑酷。跑酷最早在法国流行，所有的青少年都至少尝试过一次。他们必须攀爬、越过障碍，这是由武术启发的。对许多人来说，在跑酷的过程中，在挑战自我极限和征服世界的同时，也将仇恨、愤怒和恐惧化为自由的喜悦。
一些动作片（如《黑客帝国》）和视频游戏（如《刺客信条》）等都用到了武术。中国武术不是为了炫耀，而是为了过上让人们更好的生活，武术的初衷影响了我们的思维方式。中华文化在几千年的中国武术积淀中迅速传播开来。
The culture exchange stall-Bilingual column-“Come here!”
I still remember when I was little, many children like to watch Jackie Chan’s movies, "Legend of the Condor Heroes", the 1986 version of "Journey to the West" and so on. Chinese martial arts have been rooted in the hearts of children since they were at an early age.
Everyone is a unique individual and enjoys different sports. However, there is a sport that is both fighting and fitness. It focuses on both internal and external training, which can not only strengthen the body but also cultivate the spirit of the will, which is: Chinese martial arts.
Martial arts helped create a new sport: Parkour. By looking at the most popular sports in Europe, we can see the influence of Chinese martial arts and their increasing popularity today.
First, many kids haveto choose between Boxing and soccer. boxing is considered a very violent sport. The game was invented in Greece and became very popular in England because many members of the royal family took part in it. However, boxing is considered by many to be violent and dangerous, and has negative long-term effects. Later, illegal boxing matches were organized in Europe and the United States, so the sport became associated with hatred and blood.
Football is considered cool, but many parents think it can only be a hobby but nothing else, and sometimes even a waste of time. For many, it's a sport of running furiously, trying to evade opponents and get score points. In any case, the game so beloved in Europe was invented in China, not England or Italy. It is believed to help strengthen the bond among teams because only a good team can win a football match. At the same time, it also brings joy to the game and the people who watch it.
Certainly, what is the connection among boxing, football and Chinese martial arts? A few years ago, many would have chosen to learn soccer or take up boxing, but now even the smallest cities in Europe have martial arts centers. Both parents and children feel very satisfied and sometimes they even study together. Chinese martial arts bring things that other Western sports don'thave: stability, coordination, balance between mind and body. For every Westerner, this martial art suddenly became a gateway to another culture and a way to achieve happiness. No matter where everyone can live an easy life.
As more and more people are aware of martial arts, Chinese culture is spreadingaround the world. In Europe, such schools first appeared in Spain and Italy. People of all ages can practice martial arts, which is really unique.
Everyone has imagined that martial arts practitioners can jump on rooftops, jump over high obstacles, fight more than 10 opponents and still win, and every move they make will look perfect and cool. Many foreigners dream of flying from roof to roof to imitate animals in order to beat anyone anywhere. Hands will become weapons, with each breath increasing strength, one with all around you, one with the universe. Just like martial arts novels or movies, they can get closer to the dream of being a hero. In reality, people can't fly, but they can achieve a state of perfect tranquility, a balance of mind and body. These exercises reflect the real flow of life and contribute to better health.
Compared with all other sports, martial arts require hard work and peace of mind. Every action needs to be perfect. The use of ‘Qi’ is also a key element in Chinese martial arts to achieve the unity of inner and outer.
I believe there is no one who has not seen ‘Never Say Die’ (Shen Teng's movie), so we must know Shen Teng's classic line in the movie "You come here!" This sentence is very popular among young people because they like to use it when they have a difficult time, whether it is an interview, a difficult exam, or even inviting their favorite person out to dinner. Different people say it in many different places with different accents, but the effect is the same.
Maria Florina has started learning martial arts since she was seven years old, so she began to learn more about Chinese culture. Chinese martial arts helped her relieve stress and get better health because she had lung problems as a child. She has started learning Chinese in high school. She believes that if without the magic of martial arts, she would not have discovered the beauty of such a rich culture. She has never been to China, but her biggest dream is to visit the Shaolin Temple in China. Most overseas students have studied martial arts, but the influence of Chinese martial arts does not stop there. They created a new sport: Parkour. Parkour was first popular in France, so all teenagers try it at least once. They have to climb and jump over any obstacle, which is inspired by martial arts. But for many people, it is the process of challenging our limits and conquering the world, transforming our hatred, anger and fear into the joy of freedom.
Martial arts have been used in action movies like The Matrix and video games like Assassin's Creed, and they have influenced our way of thinking because we find that learning Chinese martial arts is not to show off, but to lead a better life. Chinese culture has spread rapidly through the accumulation of Chinese martial arts over thousands of years.
