Traditional Chinese education was, in some respects, very similar to that of Athens in its best days.
Athenian boys were made to learn Homer by heart from beginning to end; Chinese boys were made to learn
the Confucian classics with similar thoroughness. Athenians were taught a kind of reverence for the gods
which consisted in outward observances and placed no barrier in the way of free intellectual speculation.
Similarly, the Chinese were taught certain rites connected with ancestor-worship, but were by no means
obliged to have the beliefs which the rites would seem to imply. An easy and elegant skepticism was the
attitude expected of an educated adult: anything might be discussed, but it was a trifle vulgar to reach very
positive conclusions. Opinions should be such as could be discussed pleasantly at dinner, not such as man
would fight for. 【題組】49.What does the author mean when he says “from beginning to end” in this passage?
