Kuang Heng is diligent and studious, but there are no candles at home, so Kuang Heng dug a hole in the wall to attract the light from his neighbors and let the light shine on the books to study.
Kuang Heng (date of birth and death unknown), born in Chengxian County, Donghai County, was a scholar in the Western Han Dynasty, and was the official prime minister. The Kuang family has been farming for generations, but they are very diligent and eager to learn. Because his family is poor, he has to help others get an education. His story of "digging the wall to borrow light" is widely praised by the world.

Idiom revelation:
Because Kuang Heng's family is very poor, he has to do a lot of work during the day to make money. Only at night can he sit down and read. However, he can't afford candles, so he can't read when it is dark. Kuang Heng was heartbroken at this time-wasting behavior, and his heart was very painful.
We should learn from the spirit of stealing light from the wall and Kuang Heng's perseverance of not being afraid to study hard.
