第二篇：《孔子》观后感(英文)

Today，I watched a movie called confucius ,which is about Confucius ,who is a great thinker, educator and sage to the Chinese people.As we all know, Confucius has a great influence on China even Asia.But not everyone knows his experience of travelling around China and conveying his ideas, which we can learn from the movie.What impressed me most is the friendship between Confucius and Nanzi.They were both great politician in their period.Also they were intimates.Sadly ,because of their identity, they had few chances to communicate with others.I'd like to have a intimate, who has the same perspective with me so that we can learn and work together.

第三篇：孔子印英文名片

某日，孔子收到美國「世界漢學國際研討會」的請柬，邀他在開幕典禮後作專題演講。孔子十分高興，準備先去印一盒名片。

文具店老闆見聖人來了，異常恭敬，問清楚名片要中英文對照，就對孔子說：「英文的一面，不知該怎麼稱呼？」

「不是有現成的 Confucius 嗎？」孔子反問。

「那是外國人對您老的尊稱，把『孔夫子』翻成拉丁文的說法。」

老闆笑笑說：「您老不好意思自稱『孔夫子』吧？」

「那倒是的。」 孔子想到自己平常鼓吹謙虛之道，不禁沉吟起來。「那，該怎麼印呢？」

「杜甫昨天也來過，」老闆說。「哦，他的名字怎麼印的？」孔子問。

「杜先生本來要印 Tu Fu，」老闆說，「我一聽表示不好，太像『豆腐』了。」 杜先生說，「那就倒過來，叫Fu Tu 好了。」 我說，「那更不行，簡直像『糊塗』！」 「那怎麼辦？」孔子問。

「後來我就對詩聖說： 『您老不是字子美嗎？子美，子美……有了！』 杜甫說：『怎麼有了？』

我說：『杜子美，就叫 Jimmy Tu 吧！』」

孔子笑起來，叫一聲「妙！」

「其實韓愈也來過，」老闆又說。「真的呀？」 孔子更好奇了。「他就印Han Yu 吧？」 「本來他要這樣的，」 老闆說。「我一聽又說不行，太像 Hang you了。韓老說，那『倒過來呢？』

我說，「 You hang？那也不行。不是『吊死你』就是『你去上吊吧』，太不雅了 」 「那後來呢？」孔子 問。

「後來呀，」老闆得意洋洋，「還是我想到韓老的故鄉，對他說： 『您老鄉不是韓昌黎嗎？』他說『是呀』，我說就印 Charlie Han 好了！」

「太好了，太好了！」孔子笑罷，又皺起眉頭說，「他們都解決了，可是我到底怎麼印呢？」 老闆想了一下，叫道，「有了！」 「怎麼樣？」 孔子問。

「您老不是字仲尼嗎？」老闆笑道。「對呀，」孔子 滿臉期待。

老闆大聲道「而且還曾週遊列國，那就印 Johnny Walker 好了！」

On Confucius College After reform and opening up, China’s reputation and good image is valued by many counties.Understanding of Chinese culture has become the trend of the world.Only 7 years, Confucius College is global in scope, blossom everywhere.Then what is the meaning of Confucius College opened in? First, on the aspect of culture, dialogues between two different nations can strengthen their relations.However, at the same time, they can make those two nations distant or alienated from one another.The difference in language is the main cause that has made people of one nation to feel prejudice and bias towards other nations or culture.Confucius College plays an important role in the development of the culture, and it is to encourage necessary contacts between Chinese culture and the local culture.Confucius College not only help people from various countries to understand China better, but also it plays an essential role in the teaching of Chinese language in other countries.Second, at the political level, Confucius College has greatly enhanced the Chinese influence, promoted a deep knowledge of China and mutual exchanges, and promoted world peace and harmonious development.Some people, especially foreigners, however, are against Confucious College.They insist that with an increasing number of confucious College established, it is a potential threat to their own cultures, therefore, it is essential to prevent this trend.From my perspective, Confucius College help act as a positive part in the interflow of culture and political.We should make good use of them to spread and enrich our own.By Elena(杨新卓)

第五篇：孔子的英文介绍

As you all know, China is greatly influenced by Confucianism.Today I will introduce a famous person(“people” is plural, “person” is singular), Confucius.[Confucius, name Qiu, styled zhongNi, Lu Spring and Autumn period of people.]--I don't understand what this means, but I believe “Lu Spring and Autumn period of people” should be “in the kingdom of Lu during the Spring and Autumn period” Is that what you meant?] Confucius is a famous ancient thinker, educator, and founder of Confucianism.(lists that do not end in “etc.” always need “and” before the last item in the list)

Confucius was born in a poor family in the year 551B.C, [and he was born--since you already said that he was born you do not need to say it again, so you can delete this] in the state of Lu(now QuFu Shangdong province).His father, commander of a district in Lu, died three years after Confucius was born, leaving the family in poverty, but Confucius received a fine education.He was married at the age of 19 and had one son and two daughters.Confucius was a well-known leader in philosophy.[and he also made--sounds more natural to say “He also is famous for”(usually you “create” or “say” phrases rather than “make” them)] many wise phrases and theories about [the] law, life, and [the] government.(Usually people consider Confucius' sayings to apply to more than one type of law or government, so you do not need the article “the”(it is broader than “on government,” etc.))Confucius is famous for his philosophy because [he made many wise saying in ancient China that helped many people]--“his wise sayings helped many people in ancient China” learn about nature, the world, and [the--delete] human behavior.He also helped the government and the emperor by teaching them lessons on how the emperor should rule his kingdom successfully.As the founder and great thinker of Confucianism, Confucius’s thoughts were mainly collected in the Confucian Analects(since the Confucian Analects are a specific thing, you need the article “the”).The Confucian Analects reflect Confucius’ [politics, thoughts, and ethical relation thoughts]--more natural to say “thoughts on politics and ethics”.If you want to know more about Confucius, you should read the Analects of Confucius.[I believe you could learn more from this book.]--repetitive.Could remove, or say “leanr more from this book than from(something else)”

[Thought of Confucius]--“Confucian thought” [in Chinese history of great significance]--“has great significance in Chinese history”, [has]--“having” already affected more than two thousand years of history in China, therefore, Confucius’s position in history is also very high.Now, more and more Chinese and foreigners [start]--(“are” or “have started”)studying Confucian culture.Confucius[, are]--“is”(because you're talking about Confucius, a single person)worthy of [great positions of]--“a great position in”(because usually one person only holds one position)China!

[At last,]--better to say “Lastly”(“at last” sounds like we waited a very long time for you to finish and are happy you are done, which is not the case :])I want to introduce something about the eyes of Confucian gentleman.Gentlemanly(adding “-ly” makes “gentleman” an adjective to describe personality and sounds more natural)personality is one of the ideal personality modes which all Confucians [have been pursuing and adoring]--(Confucians have been pursuing this idea for a long time, which is correct, but you should say that this mode is something which “all Confucians pursue and adore”, because it is not just people who have been pursuing for a long time, it is also people who are just starting to pursue).If you want to be a perfect gentleman, it’s not easy.You should have a good command of the six arts: ritual, music, archery, carriage driving(“carriage” on its own is only a noun, need the act of driving it to make it an art), calligraphy and mathematics, but even this is not enough.Confucius said, “A gentleman does not seek satiety(”satiety“ is a very hard word!I think it would be easier to say ”satisfaction,“ this concept is a hard to translate easily into English)at the table or ease at home.He is diligent in business and cautious in speech.Both loyalty and filial piety are attained,” and so on.Confucian philosophy is a kind of a system of ideas and thoughts that talk about [the human's]--human beings' behavior and the rules that you should follow to [make]--“have”(we usually say you “have a successful life” or you “make life successful”)a successful life.Now, we are studing at QuFu, the hometown of Confucius.I think we must learn something from Confucius, although just a little.I know, maybe we could’t become a gentleman or gentlewoman, but we still could make a successful life through learning Confucianism.Thank you, that’s all.
