You can see that Chinese writing is very different from the writing in other countries. The Chinese use a different character for each word. People in many countries have to learn only 26 letters but people in China have to memorize about 600 characters before they can do even basic reading and writing.A man in China, named Confucius(孔子), was teaching the people of China what they should and should not do. He was a great wise man. His teachings filled several books and became a way of life for the Chinese, and many other people in Asia. Confucius taught that people should listen to their kings, and also that rulers should take care of their people. He taught people to listen to their parents and teachers and to be kind to others. He said, “Dont do to others what you would not want others to do to you.”Many inventions were made and used in China before the rest of the world even heard of them. By 600 AD the Chinese had invented printing. After a few centuries, they made the compass, which was a great help to sailors. A compass can tell north from south. The Chinese were the first to discover how to make explosive powder(火药).From all this, you can see that the Chinese were very busy making things that the rest of the world found really exciting and helpful when people learnt about them.根据短文简要回答问题；将短文中划线的句子译成汉语；请给短文拟一个适当的标题。（1）What was Confuciuss opinion about children and parents?_（2）How many inventions are mentioned in the passage?_（3）将短文中划线的句子译成汉语。_（4）将短文中划线的句子译成汉语。_（5）请给短文拟一个适当的标题。_五、 单词拼写（本大题有10小题，每小题1.5分，共15分） (共1题；共15分)21. （15分）根据短文内容及汉语提示在空白处写出正确的单词（每空限填一词）。 Summer vacation is coming.
