I know Qufu is a famous place because of him.S3: He had many students, but only seventy-two of them were famous.S4: Confucius wrote many great books and said many great words, so he was considered to be one of the greatest persons in the history of China.T: Terrific.

Who can say something about them?S5: Mencius was born in a place called Zhouguo.S6: And his teaching was similar to that of Confucius.S7: Yes, he also wrote many books, one of which was named Mencius. S8: I know something about Mozi, he was born in Tengguo, and his family was very poor.S9: Yes, there is a statue of him in his hometown. He thought that strong people should look after weaker people.S10: He was also thought to be a great philosopher, because he wrote a famous book called Mozi.T: Good!

For example, I think fridges are more important than cans because fridges can keep meat fresh. Are you clear?Ss: Yes!T: Ok! Now try to give us your order and tell us your reasons.S1: I agree with our teacher. I think fridges are more important, not only because they can keep meat fresh, but also because they can keep many things fresh and dry, just like my favorite between-meal nibbles.S2: I dont agree with you, because fridges waste electricity, and they can cause pollution.S3: S2 is not wrong. But fridges have more advantages than disadvantages. We can go on using them.T: Good! S3 is right. Everything has two sides. Although fridges have disadvantages, we can improve them and make better use of them, right?Ss: Yes, it is right!S4: I think planes are more important than cars.
