Learning requires diligence. Diligence is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation since ancient times, and there are countless examples related to it, which have always been praised by people. Che Yin's "Fireflies Into the Capsule" is diligence; Sun Kang's "snow screen" is diligence; Kuang Heng's "stealing learning" is diligence; Su Qin's "hanging beam and stabbing stocks" is diligence; Zu Ti's "dancing at the smell of chickens" is also diligent, and diligence finally makes them all great events.
Zhuge Liang studied under Mr. Si Mahui, a water mirror, when he was a teenager. Zhuge Liang studied hard and used his head diligently. Not only Si Mahui appreciates him, but also Si Mahui's wife values him very much. She likes this studious and brainy boy. At that time, there were no clocks, and time was recorded by sundials. There is no sun on rainy days. Time is not easy to grasp. In order to record time, Si Mahui trained cock to crow on time by feeding regularly. In order to learn something, Zhuge Liang wanted Mr. Wang to extend the lecture time, but Mr. Wang always took the cock crow as the standard, so Zhuge Liang thought: If the cock crow time is extended, Mr. Wang's lecture time will be extended. So he brought some food in his pocket when he went to school. It is estimated that when the chicken is about to crow, he will feed it some food, and the chicken will not crow when it is full.
After a while, Mr. Sima wanted to know why the chicken didn't crow on time. Careful observation shows that Zhuge Liang fed the chickens when they crowed. Mr. Wang was very angry at first, but he was soon moved by Zhuge Liang's studious spirit, caring more about him, paying more attention to him and having no reservations about his education. Zhuge Liang is more diligent. Through Zhuge Liang's own efforts, he finally became a local scholar who knew astronomy and geography.
When Newton was sixteen years old, his understanding of mathematics was still superficial, and he didn't even understand the advanced knowledge of mathematics. "Knowledge is accumulated, and cleverness comes from learning". Newton was determined to climb the peak of mathematics by his own efforts. Under the unfavorable conditions of poor foundation, Newton can correctly understand himself and make progress despite difficulties. He relearned the basic knowledge and basic formulas, and made solid progress step by step until he grasped the essentials and achieved mastery. So he invented the algebraic binomial theorem. Newton's legendary story of "calculating the wind force in a big storm" can prove Newton's body mechanics. One day, there was a big storm. The wind is howling, the dust is flying, and the mystery is long, which makes people open their eyes. Newton thought it was a good opportunity to study and calculate the wind accurately. So, he took the appliance and ran back and forth in the storm. He stumbled and measured with difficulty. Several times the dust fascinated his eyes, several times the wind blew away the paper, and several times the wind forced him to suspend his work, but none of them shook his thirst for knowledge. He finally got the correct data over and over again. He was so happy that he hurried home to continue his research. Where there is a will, there is a way. After diligent study, Newton laid a solid foundation for his tower of science. Soon, Newton's math tower was built. He invented differential calculus at the age of 22 and integral calculus at the age of 23, which made great contributions to the cause of human science.
The ideal of life respected by the Chinese nation is to pursue something; The basis of value is real talent and practical learning; It is recognized that the road to success is to study hard. China people attach importance to reading and study hard, which has become a fine tradition handed down from generation to generation. There are many proverbs about learning among the people in China, such as: "If a teenager doesn't work hard, the boss will be sad", "There is no end to learning" and "It's never too old to learn". There are also many stories of ancient people cherishing time and studying hard.
Confucius studied hard all his life and especially liked the Book of Changes in his later years. The Book of Changes is difficult to read and learn, but Confucius is not afraid of suffering and reads it repeatedly until he understands it. Because paper was not invented in the era when Confucius lived, books were all written in bamboo slips or wooden slips, which were both stupid and heavy. Many bamboo slips are woven together with thongs to make a book. Because Confucius studied hard and often exhibited letters and bamboo slips, the pimp was broken three times. Later, people created the idiom "Bian Wei's Three Musts" to express Confucius' studious spirit.
During the Warring States Period, Su Qin was so tired that he studied day and night that he stabbed himself in the leg with an awl to clear his head.
In order to prevent himself from falling asleep while studying, Sun Jing of Han Dynasty tied his hair to the beam with a rope, and he would be woken up as long as he dozed off. This is the story of "stabbing the stock and hanging the beam" in history.
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".
Wang Xizhi, a great calligrapher in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, 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".
