22、昆曲艺术一样被列为“世界非物质遗产”。联合国教科文组织的世界遗产名录上有47个项目，包括中国的昆曲和古琴曲。每两年该组织会通过给每个国家一次推荐候选项目的机会来扩充名录。联合国教科文组织对任何规范投标的国家是没有歧视的，因此尽管过程很漫长，但传统中医和中秋节被接受的可能性是很大的。在执行投标程序时，由其政府出资对申请项目进行保护。对中国传统中医的申请会突显这一事实传统的中医是一种已经存在几千年的文化。如果中国传统中医被载入联合国教科文组织的名录中，那么医生和中医从业者就能在海外宣传其好处和合法地位。老中医的理论和经历将会继续被收集而且其治疗范围将延伸到医学的其他领域，比如对艾滋病病毒和疟疾的研

24、。被列入名单不仅是感兴趣的团体主观推荐的结果，还来自政府的文化外交和对联合国教科文组织行政系统的全面了解。反过来，联合国教科文组织认可这些省、联邦及国家文化组织(对该遗产)的自主权，但是当需要时，为它们提供支持与指导。 go through获准，经过程序；通过；经历；详细检查；通读(教材P81)While the bid is going through，the state government allocates funds for each items protection.在执行投标程序时，由其政府出资对申请项目进行保护。get through通过(考试等)；接通电话；完成；用完look
