Which of the following describes how the ancient chinese were different from ancient river civilizations? they believed only in the teachings of confucius. they practiced monotheism and ancestor worship. they depended on priests to rule them, rather than kings. they viewed their leaders as humans instead of gods.

The correct answer is A) they believed only in the teachings of Confucious.

The statement that describes how the ancient Chinese were different from ancient civilizations is that they believed only in the teachings of Confucious.

Ancient civilizations used to believe in many deities or gods. Ancient Chinese civilizations only had one belief: Confucious. Ancient civilizations from the Middle East such as Mesopotamia developed a belief system that had many gods. These deities influence the behavior of humans and in some cases, they confronted each other, as the Sumerian tablets indicate. That was also the case of ancient Egypt. Egyptians had many gods: RA, Isis, Osiris, Horus, among others. They were polytheistic. But in the case of ancient China, they were different from ancient civilizations is that they believed only in the teachings of Confucious.

If I were an Educational Reformer I would propose:

1. More free capacitation programs to teachers to give them more tools to perfectionate their performance not only in class but in their interaction with the new generations. This new generations are digital natives so teachers have to be in constant capacitation to find new ways to aproach their students in the context they are living of the twenty first century.

2. More study programs to estimulate the creativity in different areas of knowledge, with more participation of teachers. The new generations don't learn the same way previous generations did. The incorporation of technology in daily life has its impact in the capacity to learn and concentrate in classroom. Programs should adapt the best of previous ways of teaching to the new, setting the main purpose of education, not only in acquiring knowledge but to help each individual to find a place in society.
