Background
墨子(约公元前468—前376),名翟,春秋末战国初期人,籍贯为宋国或鲁国,是著名思想家、教育家、科学家、军事家,墨家学派创始人。
- 身份:出身平民,做过工匠,擅长木工,传说发明风筝。
- 核心主张:
1. 兼爱:对所有人同等友爱,不分亲疏;
2. 非攻:反对战争,各国不要互相攻打。
他成就斐然,在几何、物理、光学领域多有探索,最早记录小孔成像、镜面成像等科学原理;其“墨守”防御军事思想,与《孙子兵法》互补。
- 影响:战国战乱不断,百姓受苦。墨子一生四处奔走,努力停止战争,追求天下和平。两千多年过去,他“和平、博爱”的思想依然启迪后人。
2016年我国首颗量子科学卫星定名“墨子号”,2018年设立国际顶级墨子量子奖,其思想至今仍与当代科技深度融合。

Careful reading
1 To me, one of the most inspiring people in Chinese history is Mozi (about 468-376 BCE). It is said that Mozi was a soldier, good at woodwork, and was the inventor of the kite. But in fact, above all, he was a great thinker.

D. Common people liked fighting against each other.
、
Careful reading
Read para3 carefully and answer:
3 His idea of love was one reason that Mozi wanted peace. It was important to him that everyone should show the same kindness and care to everyone else, whether they were family, friends, or strangers. He also believed states should avoid attacking one another.
Mozi wanted people to love each other and stop wars between countries.
Be nice to every classmate and help others. Never only care for your close friends.
1. How do you understand Mozi’s ideas? Use your own words.(20词以内)
2. How can we practice Mozi’s love
for all in daily life?
、
Careful reading
Read para4 carefully and answer:
4 Though Mozi lived more than 2,000 years ago, his ideas live on. I think he is still a great inspiration to many people. Now, more than ever, people around the world need to hear the message of love and peace, and work together to build a community of a shared future for mankind.
Why do people still need Mozi’s ideas of love and peace when there are wars in the world?
His ideas call for love and peace. They remind us to work together for a better world.

The person I admire most is Yuan Longping, a great scientist who was known as the “Father of Hybrid Rice”. It was great of him to develop a new kind of rice and help reduce hunger.
Yuan was born in 1930, but it’s a pity that he passed away on 22 May 2021 in Changsha.At a young age, Yuan Longping saw many people go hungry. He made up his mind to grow more rice to feed the world. For many years, he worked in the field day and night, testing different kinds of rice plants. Finally, he developed hybrid rice, which greatly increased rice production and helped millions of people out of hunger.
Though he passed away in 2021, his spirit lives on. I think he is still a great inspiration to young people today. He inspires us to value science and hard work. His story tells us that with hard work and a kind heart, we can make the world a better place.
