Who is the greatest teacher in Chinese history? Many people would think of Confucius, whose birthday was September 28. Although he lived over 2,000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution to the education today.
Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn’t give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports.
Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time only children from noble families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime.
Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us that we all have something worthy to be learned. “When I am with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them.”
He also taught us that thinking is very important in study. “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled (困惑的). All thinking but no study makes people lazy.”
Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world and society. His most important teachings are about kindness and good manners. “A person should be strict with himself, but be kind to others.” he said.

C
"Listen carefully to what I say," the time traveler said, "I shall tell you something that you will not agree."
"Why will we not agree?" I asked.
"Because the science and mathematics you know are not correct," he said. "You believe there are only three dimensions(三维空间)-length, breadth(宽) and thickness."
"There is nothing to argue with that, " the youngest member of our little group said.
"Exactly!" the time traveler answered, "But there is also a fourth dimension - time."
"We all know about time, " another member of the group said. "Time passed."
"I do not agree," the time traveler said, "Length, breadth and thickness do not pass. They stay in the same place in space. We move about them. I can prove that time is the same. It does not pass. We move in time the same way that we move in breadth, length and thickness."
None of us believed the time traveler, and we argued with him for many hours.
"If we could travel back in time," the scientist said, "We could do things to change the future."
"If we could travel forward in time," the doctor(博士) said, "we could do things that change our present."
The time traveler smiled, "It is clear," he said, "that there is only one way I can show you that I am right. We must do an experiment. Please wait here."
He left the room and soon returned, carrying what looked like a clock.
"This is a model of a time machine. It took me two years to make it," the time traveler said. "I want all of you to understand that when I start the machine, it will immediately travel in time and disappear from the present."
He turned to the youngest of all. "Give me your hand," he said.
The young man put out his hand. The time traveler took it and placed it on the machine. Immediately, there was a sudden wind, and the little machine disappeared.
I was certain this was not a trick, but the doctor was not so sure.
"Are you asking us to believe," he said, "that the machine is now in a different time?"
"Certainly! In my laboratory, a full-size machine is almost complete. As soon as it is complete, I shall send myself on a journey through time. Would you like to see my machine?"
"Are you serious about this?" the doctor asked.
"I have never been more serious about anything," the time traveler said, "Come."
We followed him to his laboratory. There, we saw the actual machine, not quite complete, but large enough for a man to sit in.
How many dimensions did the time traveler say there are?

A．Two.

B．Three.

C．Four.

D．Five.

How long did it take the time traveler to make his model time machine?
