"I will never tire of reading the old book a hundred times, and I will know myself after reading it carefully." This poem was written by Su Shi, a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, to encourage An Miaochun, a failed candidate, and was specially written.
An Yaochun took part in the imperial examination and failed to get on the list. He felt very disappointed and had huge doubts about himself. Su Shi was not only famous for a long time, but also a high official in the imperial court. Su Shi, who was also a scholar, understood the dissatisfaction and loss after failing the exam, so he specially wrote this poem to encourage An Yaochun: Don't be discouraged, as long as you master the correct learning methods, read books well, and think more, you can become the number one scholar. It's a matter of time. ?The inspiration brought by the poem
The meaning of this poem is similar to a saying circulating today. The principle is similar, that is: read the book a hundred times, and its meaning will become apparent.
The more times you read a book, the more you can appreciate its essence. Books are the ladder of human progress. From ancient times to the present, books have always played an important role. They allow civilization to be passed on and knowledge to continue.
Some books that have been passed down to this day, such as "The Analects of Confucius" and "Tao Te Ching", are every word and word, and every sentence embodies the author's knowledge and thoughts. Although the book is thin, the ideological value inside is worthy of our constant pondering and thinking. Only by constant scrutiny can we understand the knowledge and principles and absorb nutrients from it.
This poem written by Su Shi, the line "Read the old book without getting tired of reading it a hundred times, read it carefully and you will know yourself" is not only an effective learning method, but more importantly, it puts forward The important role of "thinking" emphasizes that we should read more and think more, which is of great reference for our study.
I would like to warn today’s young people that only by reading carefully and pondering deeply can they absorb the nutrients from the book!
