Best Answer

In the past, government officials, or civil servants, were awarded their jobs through family ties. Under the Han emperors, there was a system of meritocracy. People were given jobs based on their abilities. As they moved up the ladder to more important jobs, they might be given tests to prove their knowledge. Workers studied the Five Classics by Confucius to pass these tests. The Five Classics were a collection of histories, poems, and handbooks. They gave advice on how to behave. Another important work to know was the Analects. The Analects is a written collection of the sayings of Confucius. Take a few minutes to listen to a selection from the Analects of Confucius.
