If Confucius(孔子) were still alive today and could celebrate his birthday with a big cake, there would be 2575 candles. He would need a strong wind to help him blow them out.
Many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, but few people in the United Stres will know his birthday. It's nothing personal. Most Americans don't even remember the birthdays of thei own national heroes.
But this doesn't mean that Americans don't 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.

These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture are usually Chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学). Students in the United States, at the same time, ar working hard to learn Chinese. So they will be ready for life in a world where China will be as powerful s the United States.
Today China attracts(吸引) the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduc Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.

阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
It will be fantastic if you don't have to use your hands to brush your teeth. Someday, a robotic tooth- cleaner might do it for you!
It is a kind of tooth-cleaner with a lot of nanoparticles(纳米粒子). The nanoparticles are very small ball balls. They can move in a person's mouth. Also, you can change them into any shape you want. The nanoparticles can also kill bacteria(细菌) just like toothpaste or mouthwash.
At the very beginning Koo and Steager study in different fields. Steager builds very small robots. Koo tries to find new ways to work out the problems about teeth. Both of them were using the same nanoparticles but they didn't know each other at first. One day, a friend learned about both of their ideas and he told them they should meet. They met each other in a quiet library on a cold afternoon and they found that they could work together. Though Steager worked with these nanoparticles, he never thought that they might be useful in this way. “It was an amazing moment.” he says.
“We hope to see that the new way to clean teeth could help some ill people who can't brush teeth casily.” Koo says.
The scientists have tested the robotic tooth-cleaner in their own lab again and again. But it isn't yet ready for people to use. The robotic tooth-cleaner will need to practice more comfortably and safely inside a person's mouth. Koo and Steager are working hard on it. If their hard work can make the tooth-cleaner better.a lot of sick people can brush teeth easily and happily with the help of the tooth-cleaner.
56. What is a robotic tooth-cleaner
57. Who made Koo and Steager know each other
58. Where did Koo and Steager meet
59. Can people use the robotic tooth-cleaner now
60. How do you like the new tooth-cleaner
