Confucius was a great thinker and teacher. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period, when many states were fighting against each other. The common people suffered a lot from wars, and Confucius wanted to bring peace and order to society. Confucius believed that everyone deserved a good education, no matter whether they were rich or poor. He had over 3,000 students. His core teaching was about kindness. He famously said, “Do not do to others what you do not want done to yourself.” It was wise of him to remind people that respect and care should be shown to everyone. He also believed that rulers should govern with virtue. It was important to him that the people should come first. His ideas influenced China for over 2,000 years. Though he died more than 2,500 years ago, his ideas still live on. Now more than ever, we need his message of kindness and harmony to build a better world.

Ancient China was a place where states were often at war with each other. But it was also a time when there were many great philosophers. Confucius (551BC — 479BC) is the philosopher whose influence has been the greatest. He stressed the importance of kindness, duty and order in society. Chinese society was influenced by these ideas for more than 2,000 years. Mencius was a thinker whose teachings were very similar to those of Confucius. Mencius was born in 372 BC. His mother brought him up. He became an adviser to a ruler. However, when he saw that the ruler was not following his advice, he resigned. For many years he travelled from state to state, teaching the principles of Confucius. 古代中国，诸侯国之间常常交战。但那也是一个涌现出众多伟大哲学家的时代。 孔子（公元前551年—公元前479年）是影响力最大的哲学家。他强调仁爱、责任与社会秩序的重要性。两千多年来，中国社会一直受这些思想的影响。 孟子是一位思想家，其学说和孔子十分相近。孟子生于公元前372年，由母亲抚养长大。他曾担任一位君主的谋士。然而，当他发现君主不采纳他的建议时，便辞官离开了。多年间，他周游列国，传授孔子的思想。 ✅高中重点生词（音标+释义） 1. philosopher /fəˈlɒsəfə(r)/ n. 哲学家 2. stress /stres/ v. 强调；着重 3. duty /ˈdjuːti/ n. 责任，义务 4. order /ˈɔːdə(r)/ n. 秩序 5. principle /ˈprɪnsəpl/ n. 原则；学说 6. influential /ˌɪnfluˈenʃl/ adj. 有影响力的 7. resign /rɪˈzaɪn/ v. 辞职 8. adviser /ədˈvaɪzə(r)/ n. 顾问，谋士 ✅重点短语 - at war with each other 互相交战 - bring up 抚养；养育 - be similar to 和……相似 - follow one’s advice 采纳某人建议 - travel from state to state 周游列国
