What is the best virtue (美德)? What can we learn from water? Laozi, a famous Chinese philosopher (哲学家)
who lived around 2, 500 years ago, might give us an answer.
上善若水。水善利万物而不争，处众人之所恶，故几于道。
—《道德经》
The top goodness is like water, benefiting all, contending with none, and is content with all that others
disdain. Therefore, it is close to the Word.
—The Word and the World
(Translated by Zhao Yanchun)
Laozi tells us that the top character is just like water. All life in the world cannot live without water, but water
never asks for anything in return. It just keeps giving quietly. Also, water often stays where people don’t like, such as
low-lying wetlands and deserted valleys (山谷). This kind of low profile (低调) makes water the closest to the law of
the universe. It seems that we have always taken qualities like bravery and strength as great virtues, but we should not
forget what water has taught us.
In dealing with people, we can act as water. Do our best to help others without trying to get fame. At the same
time, stay humble (谦虚的). It’s unwise to always talk about the favors you gave to others. Even if no one cares about
you in a difficult situation, you need to stay cool. After all, water will not choose where to be, it just runs to where it
is needed.
As we all know, the Chinese nation has always valued Laozi’s ideas about water. In 2014, President Xi Jinping
mentioned it at the welcome dinner of the 22nd APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting in Beijing. He said APEC members
are brought together by the water of the Pacific Ocean and have a shared responsibility (责任) to make the Pacific an
ocean of peace, friendship and cooperation (合作).
54．The best virtue is like ________ according to Laozi.
A．water
B．valleys
C．wetlands
D．the universe
55．What is the right way we should act as water in dealing with people?
A．Staying proud.
B．Helping others for fame and benefit.
C．Staying excited in a difficult situation.
D．Never talking about the favors you gave to others.

56．What’s the main idea of the last paragraph?
A．We Chinese nation has always valued Laozi’s ideas about water.
B．The water of the Pacific Ocean is very important.
C．All the APEC members should cooperate well with each other.
D．All the APEC members should keep the peace of the Pacific Ocean.
