A Chinese social media user who filmed himself throwing away the shoes of a sleeping barefoot traveller has caused a social media storm.
近日，一位中国社交媒体用户拍下了自己把一位光脚睡觉的乘客的鞋子扔进垃圾桶的视频，这段视频在社交媒体中引发热议。

The video, uploaded to the web portal NetEase, shows an angry man at an airport in Xiamen picking up the traveller's shoes and throwing them into a nearby bin.
这段视频被上传到网易门户网站上，视频中，一位愤怒的男子在厦门机场捡起一位游客的鞋子，扔进旁边的垃圾桶。

"I saw a man lying on the seats with his shoes and socks off," the man says. "What will foreigners think if they see such ill manners - they will wonder about how low Chinese peoples' standards are."
男子在视频中说：“我看见有个人把鞋子袜子都脱了，躺在凳子上。我觉得这种没素质的行为，让外国人看到了，中国人在外国人心中印象到底有多差。”

Over 7,000 social media users have left comments on his video. The video by the man, who has not yet been named by the media, has caused a stir because it is frowned upon to be barefoot in China.
七千多位社交媒体用户在他发布的这段视频下留言。这位不具名的网友发布的视频在网上引起热议，因为在中国，很多人都不赞成光脚的行为。

Feet have long played an important part in Chinese culture. In traditional Chinese medicine, they are considered crucial to a person's health. Being barefoot is considered unhygienic, and in public it is an extreme taboo.
人的双脚在中国文化中很重要。按照中医的说法，脚对一个人的健康来说很关键。人们认为光脚是不卫生的，在公共场所光脚更是禁忌。

But it is also frowned upon in the home. It is common practice for people - including visitors - to wear slippers around the house.
但在家光脚也不好。在中国，人们（包括访客）在家中都会穿拖鞋。

The unnamed man who threw away the shoes of a barefoot traveller has won online respect.
