Che Yin, Sun Kang and Kuang Heng in the Jin Dynasty were so poor that they couldn't even afford to buy oil for lighting. In the summer night, Che Yin made a small pocket with gauze, caught a few fireflies and put them in, reading by the light of fireflies; Sun Kang sat in the snow on a cold winter night, studying hard through the reflection of snow; Kuang Heng cut a small hole in the wall and "stole" a little light from his neighbor's house to read. These are the stories told by the idioms "A firefly reflects snow" and "Digging a wall to steal light".
Eastern Jin Dynasty in Mo Chi
Wang Xizhi, a great calligrapher, practiced calligraphy hard since childhood. Every time he finishes writing, he goes to the pond in front of his house to wash his brush. After a long time, a pool of clear water turned into a pool of ink. Later, people called this pond "Mo Chi". Through diligent study and hard practice, Wang Xizhi finally became a famous calligrapher, known as the "book saint".
Helen Keller
There is a book, have you read it? The name of this book is The Story of Diligence and Learning. There are many stories about celebrities' hard work in this book, and I will tell one of them: I believe everyone knows Helen Keller, right? She is a famous American woman writer. When she was a child, she was seriously ill, which made her blind and deaf. When Helen was seven years old, her parents hired a teacher to help her with her study. However, Helen can't see or hear. How does she learn? So the teacher thought of a way: first give her a doll to play with, and then write the word doll on her palm to let Helen know what a doll is. Therefore, Helen soon fell in love with this learning method. Since then, Helen has studied like this. She remembered them one by one. Over time, she learned many words. You can think about what difficulties Helen has to overcome as a deaf and blind child. But she was not afraid of difficulties, studied life with amazing perseverance, and eventually became a world-famous writer. Now, people's living conditions and learning conditions are much better, so we don't have to "steal the beam to replace the column" any more, let alone imitate the practice of "hanging the beam with thorns". But the spirit of the ancients is worth studying. We are all healthy people, much better than Helen Keller. As long as we learn not to be afraid of difficulties, not to give up halfway, to study hard and to be successful, we will certainly succeed. The article is ever-changing and tireless.
There are many people who are good at modifying their own articles at all times and in all countries. Cao Xueqin wrote "A Dream of Red Mansions" with ten years' review and five additions and deletions. Tolstoy wrote War and Peace, which was revised seven times. Marx would rather burn his manuscript than leave his unprocessed works. Flaubert was a French critical realist writer in the19th century. One day, Mo Bosang went to Flaubert for consultation with a new book. He was puzzled to see that the manuscript on Flaubert's desk had only one line on each page, and the other nine lines were blank. Flaubert smiled and said, "This is my habit. I only wrote one line on ten lines of manuscript paper, and the other nine lines were reserved for revision. "
