Situation

Please edit it:

The situation that the traditional virtues have shocked by the American values has forced Chinese begin to Americanize their culture. So it is not so easy to describe what virtues that today's Chinese cherish in the dynamic ear. Some people moaned that today's Chinese are a heap of loose sand. Well, that's it. But tsunami gathered all Chinese to pay attention to the victims, like it gathered all countries in the world . I think Chinese will finally find what virtues they have and be proud of them.
