They read loudly that "Is it not pleasant to learn with a constant perseverance and application? Is it not delightful to have friends coming from distant quarters?"
The cybercafé in Paralympic Village held cultural exchanging activities in a purpose to introduce Confucius, the greatest teacher in ancient China, to foreign athletes, coaches and assistants, said Li Lan, vice-president of Lenovo Corporation and the cyber cafe's operator.
