　　Ⅴ.閱讀理解

　　Confucius(551～479 B C)was a thinker，educator，and founder of the Ru School for Chinese thought.

　　He was a wellknown leader in philosophy and he also made many wise phrases and theories about the law，life，and the government that helped many people learn about nature，the world，and human beings.

　　Confucius’s social philosophy largely centres around the concept of“ren”， which is“loving others”and“honoring one’s parents”．Those who have developed “ren” are “simple in manner and slow of speech”．For Confucius，such concern for others is proved through the practice of the Golden Rule：“What you do not wish for yourself，do not do to others.”

　　Confucius thinks a good rulership was to have “de” or “virtue” which allows one to win people’s support without using any force and keep good order in his state without troubling himself，and that a ruler should rule his people by his own example and treat them with love and concern.

　　A characteristic of Confucius’thought is his emphasis (強調) on education and study.“A good teacher is someone who knows well the ways of the past and the practices of the ancients”and he also thinks“He who learns but does not think is lost.He who thinks but does not learn is in great danger.”

　　Confucius did not write down the principles of his philosophy; these

　　were

　　handed

　　down only through

　　his students.Lun Yu, a book compiled (編撰) by some of his students，is

　　considered

　　the

　　most

　　dependable

　　source

　　of information about his life and teachings.One of the historical works that he is said to have compiled and edited, The Spring and Autumn Annals, is describing Chinese history in the state of Lu from 722 to 481 BC.

　　Since Confucius’s teachings and philosophy was so advanced, it was the education for China for 2,000 years.It is called Confucianism.

　　【解題導語】　孔子是偉大的思想家、教育家和儒家學說的創始人。在社會哲學中，他強調“仁”。在統治者中，他倡導“德”，要對人民關愛。他還強調教育和學習，認為不學習是很危險的。他的哲學思想已影響了中國2000多年。

　　1．The passage mainly discusses________.

　　A．Confucius and his great thought

　　B．the life of Confucius

　　C．Confucius’s influence on students

　　D．Confucius’s teaching methods

　　解析：選A。主旨大意題。文章的第三段主要討論的是孔子的社會哲學；第四段談論的是他的政治哲學；第五段是他的教育觀點；所以A符合句意。

　　2．Confucius’s philosophic thinking can help people know about all the following EXCEPT________.

　　A．humans B．nature

　　C．the world

　　D．the sun

　　解析：選D。細節理解題。根據第二段的后半部分“...helped many people learn about nature，the world，and human beings.”可知沒有提到D項。

　　3．Which of the following expresses Confucius’s educational idea?

　　A．What you do not wish for yourself, do not do to others.

　　B．Learning and thinking should go hand in hand.

　　C．“Loving others”and “honoring one’s parents”．

　　D．A ruler should love and care about his people.

　　解析：選B。細節理解題。A、C都反映了他的社會觀，D反映了他的政治觀，從第五段可以看出B反映了他的教育觀。

　　4．According to the passage，which of the following is NOT true?

　　A．Confucius was founder for the Ru School for Chinese thought.

　　B．The Spring and Autumn Annals is a historical book.

　　C．Confucius has great effect on Chinese society.

　　D．Lun Yu is a book compiled by Confucius.

　　解析：選D。細節判斷題。從首段可知A表述正確。從倒數第二段可知B表述正確。從最后一段可知C表述正確。而從“Lun Yu，a book compiled (編撰) by some of his students”可知D與文意不符，故選D。

　　5．We can infer from the passage that a teacher should be a person who________.

　　A．is old and experienced enough

　　B．learns but doesn’t think

　　C．does things according to good old ways

　　D．thinks a lot but doesn’t learn

　　解析：選C。推理判斷題。從倒數第三段中的“A good teacher is someone who knows well the ways of the past and the practices of the ancients”可知孔子認為老師應該是一個熟悉過去并且身體力行的人，因此選C。
