Answer to Question 1

 Confucianism  good governance required a fixed social hierarchy in which loyalty flowed upwards from wife to husband, son to father, common man to ruler, and ruler to heaven. Social responsibility then passed downwards, with each individual obliged to care for the next stratum below. Confucius saw human nature as basically good but easily corrupted by poor leadership.
 Daoism  stressed self-cultivation and severing one's personal ties to an imperfect world
 Buddhism  a doctrine of man as inherently imperfect, but, through religious practice, able to embark on a gradual journey of self-improvement through multiple incarnations toward a purified future

Answer to Question 2

These regional dialects are often mutually unintelligible . . . Writing across the Chinese world as long been unified around a single system of characters . . .There are also the native languages of many minority groups, e.g., Uighur or Mongol
