20世纪之前,中国在农业、水利、建筑、陶瓷、纺织等各方面所取得的成就被多国效仿。在美国,富兰克林、杰弗逊等开国元勋就曾吸收和借鉴了中国文化,用以指导新大陆的建设。富兰克林建“长城”富兰克林是人尽皆知的人物,然而,鲜有人知道富兰克林曾对孔子思想有所研究。 Before the 20th century, China’s achievements in agriculture, water conservancy, architecture, ceramics and textiles were followed by many countries. In the United States, the founding fathers such as Franklin and Jefferson absorbed and borrowed Chinese culture to guide the construction of the New World. Franklin was built “Great Wall” Franklin is a well-known figure, however, few people know that Franklin had a study of Confucius.
