"A Critique of 'New Species"1
新种」 的写作方式与其他的作品有些不同。 这不同之处或者会使读者难于跟随，因而不懂，因而误会是很自然发生的事。 朴园君所以要采用这个方式大概是因为叙述的方便吧。
「新种」不是一个梦，也不是作者个人的虚构，而是一种超形式的写实，最低限度大前半是这样。 也不是一个比譬，因为这是针对事实的骨干描写。 无疑的，「新种」 是整个近代战争的轮廓，作者尽力解明人类的愚蠢和矛盾。 人类受了一些好听的名词招引，又盲目地受着某一种 「声音」（思想）的驱使，就拼命地去杀自己的亲人，自己的兄弟。 抛了快乐的田园，却自愿地 （正确一点是受了欺骗）去接受自己的坟墓。 时代虽然不同，但是所干的勾当总还是一样。 作者很明显地暴露它的主题，把整个时代的实况放在我们的眼前，让我们明白自己所为所干的真相。 可惜作者不会指出这互相残杀的底因。
在一刻的平静中，人类还是一样怀疑着对方，要赶着筑那隔绝自己的围墙。 谁料这围墙就是他日埋葬自己的坟墓呢！人类的愚蠢无过于此。
新种的降临是在一个雷声之后。 这雷声到底是什么呢？ 作者不曾有明确的指出，大概是人类自己的觉悟吧！ 但作者告诉我们在新种降临时，人类一切的罪恶和渣泽都已深葬在自己手筑成的坟墓里。 这时再没有围墙，没有招摇的虚伪旗帜，和那鼓舞人类相互残杀毁灭的播音机声。 人类的真正博爱就出在世上来。
“我那时大约是死了。” 作者用这句话来明示 「新种」降临的时代。 当然， 我们没有这样长的生命来看见这个时代有一天是要降临的。
作者的思想是应该表扬的。 他的作品是有价值的。 不论是以人的立场来看，还是以艺术的立场来看，而每一句都不是虚浮或脱题的。 在整篇的结构上，也给读者保留着美的感觉。 总之，它不是一个人，一个地方，和一个时间的事。
The writing method of "New Species" is somewhat different from other works. This area of difference may make it difficult for readers to follow and therefore cannot understand, so misreading is a natural occurrence. Brother Pu Yuan probably chose this method because of the convenience of narration.
"New Species" is not a dream, nor is it the author's personal fiction, but an ultra form of realism, at least for the first half of it. It’s not an analogy because it’s a bare bones description of the facts. Undoubtedly, "New Species" is an outline of the entire modern war, and the author tries his best to explain the stupidity and contradictions of humanities. Human beings are attracted by some nice-sounding terms and are blindly driven by a certain "voice" (thoughts), so they exert their strength to kill their relatives and brothers. Leaving behind the happy pastoral, they voluntarily (or rather having been deceived) accepted their own graves. Although the times are different, the dishonorable activities are still the same. The author clearly reveals the theme, putting the reality of the entire era before our eyes and allowing us to understand the truth of what we have done. Unfortunately, the author does not point out the root cause of this mutual slaughtering.
In a moment of peace, humans still doubt each other and hastily build a wall to isolate themselves. Who would have thought that this wall would be their own grave in the future? The stupidity of humanity is no more than this.
The coming of the new species is after a thunderclap. What exactly is this thunderclap? The author has never pointed it out clearly. It is probably the awakening of human kind themselves! But the author tells us that when the new species arrive, all the sins and dregs of mankind have been buried deep in the grave built by their own hands. At this time, there will be no more walls, no waving of phony banners, and no radio sounds that incite mankind to kill and destroy each other. The true love of mankind will appear in the world.
"I will probably be dead by then." The author uses this sentence to indicate the era when the "new species" will arrive. Of course, we do not have such a long life to see the arrival of this era.
The author's thoughts should be praised. His works are valuable. Whether viewed from the perspective of a person or through art, every sentence is not empty or off-topic. The structure of the whole article also retains a sense of aesthetic for readers. In short, it is not an event of one person, one place, or one time period.
