Abstract
The vernacular movement between the late Qing Dynasty and the May 4th Movement stemmed from the criticism of the Separation of Vernacular and Classical Chinese,and the advocate of the Integration of Vernacular and Classical Chinese.However,the defamiliarization of literature language requires it to possess the tendency that departs from common language naturally and made the Integration of Vernacular and Classical Chinese movement suffer from crisis both in theory and in practice.So,the Integration of Vernacular and Classical Chinese could only be a political lie.
