Who is the greatest teacher in Chinese history? Many people would think of Confucius(孔子), whose birthday was September 28. Although he lived over 2, 000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution(贡献) 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.

Criticism（批评）is everywhere in life, so you need to learn how to deal with it.
You cannot stop what people say. What you can do, however, makes a difference. Dealing with criticism, should we accept or refuse? 53 It all depends on you.
Ask yourself how the criticism influences you. Will you lose something important because you are criticized? 54 So, don’t worry about it. Instead, some criticism help you improve in fact. Don’t be afraid to accept criticism. No one likes to be told that he is wrong. Yet, every person has ever been criticized for something. 55 You may have received some strong criticism, but it doesn’t mean that you are foolish, or that you don’t have the ability to do something properly. 56 And you won’t be too nervous about what people think.
Consider where the criticism comes from. Is the person just trying to offer useful criticism? Then think it over and get what is useful for you. On the other hand, there are persons who offer their advice just to be useless. 57 You needn’t be angry about that.
Do your best. And if someone doesn’t like what you’ve done, so what? It’s either valid（有效的）criticism or invalid criticism. But you have the power to decide how you will allow it to influence you.
A．I’m afraid you can’t.
B．Of course you won’t!
C．To be happy or to be sad?
D．So you should realize that it’s normal.
E．Well, it isn’t worth your attention at all.
F．Therefore, you must take their advice seriously.
G．If you can learn to be active, you will reduce some of your stress.
