This is the last sentence when a person reads a book.

It is the last sentence when a man reads: the lights are on at night and the chickens are on at night. From Yan Zhenqing's "Persuasion".

First, the original text of "encouraging learning"

Every day when the cock crows, it is the best time for boys to read. Teenagers only know how to play, but don't know how to study hard. When they are old, they regret why they didn't know how to study hard when they were young.

Second, the translation of "encouraging learning"

Midnight is the best time for boys to study every day. When they were teenagers, they only knew how to play and didn't know how to study hard. When they are old, they regret not studying hard when they were young.

Third, the appreciation of "encouraging learning"

This is a poem that encourages teenagers to study hard. The language of this poem is concise, simple, natural and fluent, and full of philosophy. Through metaphor and contrast, the author urges teenagers to cherish their youth, study hard and make a difference, otherwise it will be too late to regret.

Writing the first sentence with objective phenomena early leads to the difficulty in learning the second sentence. The words "black hair" and "bald head" in the third and fourth sentences are metonymic figures of speech, referring to youth and old age. Through the method of comparison, it is emphasized that reading and learning should be early, and it is not necessary to regret it when you are old. Structurally, three or four sentences are antithetical sentences, and "black hair" and "bald head" echo each other and set off each other.
