Being assertive and responsive is not necessarily “good” or “bad”. Your sociomunicative style is a barometer of how you interact with others, not whether you are a good or bad person._____________________________________________________________________Source: From McCroskey, J, C., amp。 Richmand, ., Fundamentals of Human Communication: An lnterpersonal Perspective.

For more than two thousand years it has moulded and shaped the civilization of China and exerted a profound influence upon almost one fourth pf the human race.Confucianism has left us a rich literary heritage known as the Four Books and Five Classics。 The Great Learning (《大學(xué)》), The Mean (《中庸》), Analects (《論語(yǔ)》), and Mencius (《孟子》)。 Book of Change(《易經(jīng)》), Book of History (《尚書》), Book of Odes (《詩(shī)經(jīng)》), Book of Rites (《禮記》) and Spring and Autumn Annals(《春秋》) For six centuries (1313—1905) these four texts became the elementary requirements of Chinese education in the feudal society and served as the basis of the civil service examination (科舉考試) by which scholars were selected for official posts at various levels of the government.The ethical principle of Confucianism is its discovery of the ultimate in the moral character of human relationships in which Confucius offered the solution for the ills and evils of his day. That is the wellknown Five Relationships: rulerminister, fatherson, husbandwife, elderandyounger brother, and friendfriend. The responsibilities ensuing from these relationships are mutual and reciprocal. A minister owes loyalty to his ruler, and a child filial respect to his parent. But the ruler must care for his subjects, and the parent for the child. Just as Confucius said of the doctrine of reciprocity and neighborliness: “Within the four seas all men are brothers.” ( 四海之內(nèi)皆兄弟 ) Do not do to others what you would not want others to do to you. (己所不欲,勿施于人) Confucius39。 central doctrine is that of the virtue of ren (仁). What is ren? Ren is translated variously as goodness, benevolence, humanity, and humanheartedness. In short, ren means affection and love. A man of ren loves others (任者愛人) .Fan Chi asked about ren. Confucius said, Love all men.” (樊遲問(wèn)任,子曰“愛人”)The ethical thought of Confucius can be summed up as the following five cardinal virtues。1. ren (仁), the will to show benevolence to others (the root)2. yi (義), righteousness by justice (the trunk)3. li ( 禮), moral ways of conduct (the branches)4. zhi (智), wisdom (the flower)5. xin (信), faithfulness (the fruit)In my opinion Confucianism39。s greatest contribution to the Chinese nation is its shaping and moulding of the Chinese character and national soul and its founding of the plete system of knowledge. Just as Dr. Sun Yatsen said。 Therefore the old morals of loyalty (忠) and piety (孝), affection and love (仁愛), faithfulness and righteousness(信義), are superior to those of the foreign countries, let alone that of peace and harmony (和平). These high standards of
