道教是中國土生土長長的宗教。創始人是春秋末期的哲學家、思想家老子。道教以老子所著的《道德經》為主要經典。道教主張“重人貴生”。崇尚清靜無為,修身養性。“道可道,非常道。名可名,非常名。無名天地之始;有名萬物之母。故常無,欲以觀其妙;常有,欲以觀其徼”便是老子的至理名言。
Chinese Taoism Taoism first originated in China. The founder of Taoism is Laozi, a philosopher and thinker who lived in the late Spring and Autumn Period ***770BC-476BC***. Tao Te Ching whose authorship has been attributed to Laozi, is considered to be the main Taoist classic. Taoism advocates the value of a human being’s life, recommends the discarding of all desires and worries from one’s mind, and encourages the cultivation of moral character and the nourishment of human nature. The following is an example of Laozi’s golden saying: The way that can be told of is not an unvarying way; The names that can be named are not unvarying names. It was from the nameless that Heaven and Earth sprang; The named is but the mother that rears the ten thousand creatures, each after its kind. Truly, only he that rids himself forever of desire can see the secret essences; He that has never rid himself of desire can see only the outcomes.

中國成語是漢語中意義完整的表示一般概念的固定片語或短語。“成語”中的“成”既是約定俗成。成語是比詞大而語法功能又相當於詞的語言單位。絕大多數的中國成語由四個漢字組成,例如:自強不息、青出於藍、厚積薄發。成語主要從民間諺語、古代文學作品、詩歌、寓言、典故、名言警句等方面提煉而成,是漢語語言中精煉而又富有生命力的一部分。
Chinese Idioms Chinese idioms refer to comprehensive and integrated fixed phrases and expressions. Idioms are established and accepted by constant usage and common practice. An idiom is a language unit that is larger than a word, but has the same grammatical function as a word. Most Chinese idioms consist of four characters. For example, ziqiangbuxi *** make unremitting efforts to improve oneself***, qingchuyulan***bluer than indigo***, and houjibofa ***success comes with time and effort***. Idioms are extrated from folk proverbs, ancient works of literature, poems, fables, allusions, and well-known sayings. Idioms are a part of the Chinese language that are concise and have great vitality.

中國是絲綢的故鄉。栽桑、養蠶、繅絲、織綢是中國古代人民的偉大發明。商周時期絲綢的生產技術就已發展到相當高的水平。西漢時張騫通西域,把中原與波斯灣、地中海緊密聯絡起來,開闢了中外交流貿易的新紀元。從此中國的絲綢以其卓越的品質、精美的花色和豐富的文化內涵聞名於世,成為中國文化的象徵。東方文明的使者。
China is the home of silk. Mulberry planting, sericulture, silk reeling and thickening are all great inventions of the ancient Chinese. As early as the Shang and Zhou Dynasties ***1600BC-256BC***, the Chinese people’s silk-weaving techniques had reached an extremely high level. During the Western Han Dynasty ***206BC-25AD***, Zhang Qian, an outstanding diplomat, travelled around central Asia and connected China with the Persian Gulf and the Mediterranean, opening up a new era of Sino-foreign trade, exchange and communication. From then on, China’s silk became well known for its extraordinary quality, exquisite design and color, and abundant culture connotations. Hitherto, Chinese silk has been accepted as a symbol of Chinese culture and the emissary of oriental civilization.

筆墨紙硯是中國古代文人書房當中必備的寶貝,被稱為“文房四寶”。用筆墨書寫繪畫在中國可追溯到五千年前。秦時已用不同硬度的毛和竹管制筆;漢代以人工制墨替代了天然墨;有了紙張以後,簡牘錦帛逐失其用;硯臺則隨筆墨的使用而發展。 “文房四寶”到宋朝以後特指湖筆、徽墨、宣紙、端硯。可以說文房四寶書寫了整個中華文明。
The Four Treasures of the Study The writing brush, ink stick, ink stone, and paper were requisite treasures in the study of the scholars of ancient China, and they are often referred to as the “Four Treasures of the Study.” The writing brush and ink stick have been used by the Chinese to write and paint since 5,000 years ago. In the Qin Dynasty ***221BC---206BC***, people already used feathers of different hardness and bamboo trunks to make brushes. During the Han Dynasty ***206BC-220AD***, man-made ink was used instead of natural ink. After paper was invented by the Chinese, bamboo slips, wooden tablets, brocade and silk, which originally functioned as writing surfaces, gradually faded out. The ink stone was first developed with the use of writing brushes and ink. After the Song Dynasty ***960AD---1279AD***, the “Four Treasure of the Study” particularly referred to hubi, the writing brush produced in Huzhou, Zhejiang province; huimo, the ink stick produced in Huizhou, Anhui province; xuan paper, a kind of paper produced in Xuanzhou, Anhui province; and duanyan, the ink stone made in Zhaoqing, Guangdong province ***Zhaoqing was earlier called Duanzhou***. Indeed, the Four Treasures of the Study” have writtin the whole Chinese civilization, as it is.
