Midnight is the best time for boys to study every day. When I was a teenager, I only knew how to play and didn't know how to study hard. When I was old, I regretted why I didn't know how to study hard when I was young.

"Persuasion" in "Persuasion" plays a leading role in the whole article. "Persuasion" is interpreted as "encouragement". In this poem "Encouraging Learning", the author encourages people to keep learning. Only in this way can they increase their knowledge, develop their talents and cultivate their noble character.
"Night light night chicken" refers to hardworking people and diligent students who are still working and studying in the middle of the night, and the lights are still on at night. After turning off the lights and lying down for a short rest, chickens crow at night, and these hardworking people have to get up and be busy again. The first sentence was written early, which is an objective phenomenon, which leads to the second sentence: study hard and get up early. The second sentence is a supplement to the first sentence, expressing that young people should study day and night, and only by studying hard can they serve the country and make contributions.
The third and fourth sentences say that if you don't study hard when you are young, it's too late to study now when you are old. "Black hair" and "bald head" in the sentence 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, leaving a deep impression on readers.
This poem is easy to understand, natural and fluent, and full of philosophy. The core is "black hair learns early, white hair learns late". As ambitious people, we should pay attention to seize the time to study, study and cultivate self-cultivation. The best reading time is in the third and fifth watch, and you should read in the morning. Moreover, only by hard work year after year can we really learn the skills of serving our country and starting a family. From the perspective of study time, we should encourage young people not to waste time and study hard as soon as possible so as not to regret it in the future. The poet conceived from the perspectives of the significance, function, attitude and methods of learning, hoping that people would pay attention to the acquired learning in order to strengthen their own behavior cultivation.
