While many people in China remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. Its nothing
20、 personal. Most Americans dont even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes. But that doesnt mean that Americans dont care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China. In the past two decades, the C
21、hinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, histor
22、y and philosophy(哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up the drawbacks of Western philosophy.

27、hing called “computer face”. He also said that professionals who worked long hours in front of a screen were ending up with saggy jowls(颚骨),“turkey neck” and deep-set wrinkles on their forehead and around their eyes. The Botox expert said that, of all his clients, office workers were most likely to
28、show premature ( 过早的 ) signs(迹象) of aging. “If you are one of the unfortunate people who frown(皱眉)while you are concentrating on the screen then, over time, you will end up with frown lines. ” Dr. Prager said. “What is perhaps more surprising is the number of women with saggy jowls because they are
