问得好!以前,只有贵族子弟才有权利受教育,但孔子认为,教育应该不分贵贱,不分国界,每个人都有受教育的权利。所以他创办了私塾,培养人才。据说他有弟子三千,可以说是“桃李满天下”!
Good question! In the past, only the sons of noblemen had the right to an education. However, Confucius believed that education shouldn't be provided based on economic status or political borders and that everyone had the right to an education. Therefore, he established a private school in order to cultivate people's talents. It's said that he had over 3,000 disciples. You could say that he had tons of disciples from all over the place!
