中華民族的傳統文化博大精深、源遠流長。早在2 000多年前，就產生了儒家學說和道家學說，以及其他很多在中國思想史上有地位的學說流派，這就是有名的“諸子百家”。從孔夫子到孫中山，中華民族傳統文化有它的很多珍貴品質。比如“天下興亡，匹夫有責”的愛國情操，“民為邦本”、“民貴君輕”的民本思想和“己所不欲，勿施于人”的行為準則。
The traditional Chinese culture, both extensive and profound, starts far back and runs a long, long course. More than 2 000 years ago,there emerged in China Confucianism and Taoism, and many other theories and doctrines that figured prominently in the history of Chinese thought,all being covered by the famous term “the Hundred Schools of Thought”. From Confucius to Dr. Sun Yat-sen,the traditional Chinese culture presents many precious ideas. For example, they lay stress on. patriotism as embodied in the saying“Everybody is responsible for the rise or fall of the country.”, the populist ideas that “People are the foundation of the country.”and that “The people are more important than the monarch”and the code of conduct of “Don’t do to others what you don’t want others to do to you”.

Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
Unlike their American or European counterparts, car salesmen in Japan work hard to get a buyer. Instead of lying lazily around showrooms waiting for customers to drop by, many Japanese car salesmen still go out to get them. They walk wearily along the streets cars door-to-door. New customers are hunted with fruit and cakes on their birthdays. But life is getting tough, and not just because new-car sales are falling.
With more Japanese women (who often control the household budget) going out to work, the salesmen increasingly find nobody at home when they call. That means another visit in the evening or the weekend. Then they face an extra problem: more people, especially the young, prefer to choose a new car from a showroom where they can compare different models.
Even as late as the mid-1980s some 90% of new cars were sold door-to-door. In some rural areas most new cars are still sold this way. But in the big cities more than half the new cars are now sold from showrooms.
Although investing in showrooms is expensive because of the high cost of Japanese land, dealers have little choice. A labor shortage and higher among Japan’s workforce are making it difficult to hire door-to-door salesmen. Most of a Japanese car salesman’s working day is spent doing favors for customers, like arranging insurance or picking up vehicles for servicing, rather than actually selling.
Japan’s doorstep car salesmen are not about to vanish. The personal service they provide is so deep-rooted in Japan that they are likely to operate alongside the glittering new showrooms. The two systems even complement each other. What increasingly happens is that the showroom attracts the interest of a potential buyer, giving the footsore salesmen a firm lead to follow up with a home visit.
