Its nothing personal. Most Americans dont even remember the birthdays of their

22、own national heroes. But this doesnt mean that Americans dont care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China. In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western unive

23、rsities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture.

42、he boy faced the angry man and his upraised whip. “How dare you hit me when you know God sees you?” he cried, looking fearlessly into the face of the angry bailiff.

43、rather than punishments.While Hans was still a boy, his kind father died.
