Answer 1

Answer: C is correct.

Explanation: Daoism observes nature of things and supposes that the world is in a constant and changing flux. The wise one flows with the flow (yin-yang exchange, interplay). Confucianism is patriarchal and teaches obedience to fathers, ancestors (father principle).

Answer 2

The correct answer is letter C.

Taoism is a philosophy of life and an ancient Chinese religion in which the human being must live in harmony with nature, as it is part of it. In this way, he believes that when we take nature as a reference in our lives, we achieve balance, or "Tao."

Confucianism believes in the search for the harmony of life and the world, the Tao. Thus, human beings are structured by four dimensions: the self, the community, nature and the sky. Because of these circumstances, humans need to cultivate six fundamental virtues.
