7 A. Say how much do you know about the man whose name was Confucius.

B. Work in pairs and make up some questions you would like to ask about Confucius.

C. Work in pairs. One of you will read Text A and the other Text B and then share the information with each other. See which of your questions have found their answers.

Text A

Confucius was one of the greatest moral teachers of all time. He lived in China about five hundred years before Christ [kraist]. Confucius studied ancient Chinese writings from which he took some ideas. Those ideas seemed important to the development of fine character. Then he taught these ideas to the princes and to the students of all ages who came to him for instruction [ɪn'strʌkʃn]. The rules he wrote down 2,400 years ago are still used by people. For example, his golden rule was “What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others”. He tried to interest people in ideals of love, openness and moral behaviour. Confucius believed that man was naturally good and could live in harmony with other people.

Text B

Confucius’ Chinese name was Kung-Fu-tse. At the age of 22, three years after his marriage, Confucius began to teach men how to live happily. Among other people he taught a number of Chinese princes.

Confucius did not consider himself a god. In fact, he taught nothing about religion or about what happens to us after death. Within five hundred years after his death, his teachings became the philosophy of the whole country. When Buddhism appeared, the teachings of Confucius were almost forgotten, but later remembered again. We can say that even today Confucius’ ideas are important for people.

Решение 2.

7A. Скажите, как много вы знаете о человеке по имени Конфуций.

Ответ:

Before reading the text, I knew that Confucius was an important philosopher from ancient China. I had heard of his name in history class. After reading the texts, I learned that he lived about 500 years before Christ, his Chinese name was Kung-Fu-tse, and he taught people how to live happily, including a famous "golden rule".

До прочтения текста я знал, что Конфуций был важным философом из древнего Китая. Я слышал его имя на уроках истории. Прочитав тексты, я узнал, что он жил примерно за 500 лет до Рождества Христова, его китайское имя было Кун-Фу-цзы, и он учил людей, как жить счастливо, включая знаменитое «золотое правило».

7B. Поработайте в парах и придумайте несколько вопросов, которые вы хотели бы задать о Конфуции.

Ответ:

Here are some questions I would like to ask about Confucius:

1. What was his childhood like?
2. Did he have any children?
3. Why were his teachings forgotten when Buddhism appeared?
4. What are some other rules or ideas he taught?

Вот несколько вопросов, которые я хотел бы задать о Конфуции:

1. Каким было его детство?
2. Были ли у него дети?
3. Почему его учение было забыто, когда появился буддизм?
4. Каким еще правилам или идеям он учил?

7C. Поработайте в парах. Один из вас прочитает Текст А, а другой — Текст Б, а затем поделитесь информацией друг с другом. Посмотрите, на какие из ваших вопросов нашлись ответы.

Ответ:

After reading both texts, here is what I can answer from my questions in part B:

• The texts don't say anything about his childhood or children, only that he got married.
• The text mentions that his teachings were forgotten when Buddhism appeared, but it doesn't explain why.
• The texts give one example of his rules: “What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others”.

Прочитав оба текста, вот что я могу ответить на свои вопросы из пункта B:

• В текстах ничего не говорится о его детстве или детях, только то, что он был женат.
• В тексте упоминается, что его учение было забыто с появлением буддизма, но не объясняется почему.
• Тексты приводят один пример его правил: «Чего не желаешь себе, того не делай другим».
