19、 Expansive deserts and miles of coastline provide plenty of options for safe rocket launches (发射). And its position on the Earth makes it especially appealing as the spin of the Earth provides an extra push, meaning less fuel is needed to get payloads into orbit. All these seem to make it possible.T

His moral teachings

36、emphasized self-cultivation(培养), imitation: of moral exemplars, and the attainment of skilled judgment rather than knowledge of rules. His teachings rarely rely on reasoned argument, and moral ideals and methods are conveyed indirectly. His teachings require examination and context to be understood.

37、 A good example is found in this famous anecdote:廄焚。子退朝，曰:“傷人乎？”不問馬。When the stables were burnt down, on returning from court Confucius said, “Was anyone hurt? ” He did not ask about the horses.X.11 (tr. Waley), 10-13(tr. Legge), or X-17(tr. Lau)By not asking about the horses, Confucius demonstrates

38、 that the sage(圣人)values human beings over property, but not directly; readers are led to reflect on whether their response would follow Confuciuss and to pursue self-improvement if it would not have.

Never impose on others what you would not

41、choose for yourself. ”Analects XV.24, tr. David HintonOften overlooked in Confucian morals are the virtues to the self: sincerity and the cultivation of knowledge. Virtuous action towards others begins with virtuous and sincere thought, which begins with knowledge. A virtuous nature without knowledg

42、e is likely to be influenced by corruption, and virtuous action without sincerity is not true righteousness(正义). Cultivating knowledge and sincerity is also important for ones own sake; the superior person loves learning for the sake of learning and righteousness for the sake of righteousness.1、The
