According to the record, during the Han and Jin dynasties, on August 27 each year, the birthday of Confucius, the emperor would go to the Confucius temple and pay tribute (敬意) to the ancient philosopher followed by court officials, and would also invite royal teachers to the imperial court for a banquet. On this day, teachers around the nation enjoyed a days vacation and were given dried meat as gifts. The capital, all states and counties would also hold ceremonies to worship Confucius. Excellent performing teachers would be chosen from academies and learning institutions nationwide, reporting to the royal court and given 500 liang (两) silver coins as awards. Until the Qing Dynasty, the ceremony, on August 27, was of a larger scale. The teachers salaries in schools and academies around the nation were raised, and well-performing teachers would be awarded official titles or promoted to higher positions. Normally, an ancient teachers income included salary, accommodation and festival gifts. There was no fixed tuition fee. Generally the parents paid teachers according to their household income. Both money and basic foodstuff could be paid in exchange for tuition. In private schools, teachers always received money or gifts from the host family at certain festivals or at the beginning and end of each semester. The festivals in which teachers received gifts varied from region to region, while the most valued ones were the Duanwu, Mid-Autumn and Chinese New Year festivals, as well as Confucius birthday and the private tutors birthday. Among all the gift-giving festivals, the first meeting gift was a must. When students met their private tutors for the first time, they had to kneel down to Confucius spirit tablet and then to their private tutors, before presenting a “gift”. 【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文, 主要介绍的是中国教师节的历史, 包括其由来, 最初孔子诞辰就是教师节。1.
