Hello!, the correct answers are:

B: Family is where people learn respect, cooperation and good habits. Confucianism generated a high ideal for family interaction: members had to treat each other with love, respect and considerations for others.

E: Those in the government need to work hard for the sake of others: Confucianism said that the ruler of a state was to be a father to his people and look after their basic needs. It wanted officials to criticize their rulers and refuse to serve the corrupt ones. This was known in The West as Neo-Confucianism.

C: People should work hard to think and act better.

Confucianism established that if we realized our potential to be the best friend, parent, son or daughter humanly possible, we would establish a level of caring, of moral excellence, that would approach the utopian. This is known as Confucian Transcendence: to take the actions of everyday life seriously as the arena of moral and spiritual fulfillment.

I hope this helped you :)
