In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a man named Sun Jing, a famous politician. When he was young, he was eager to learn. He often closed the door and kept reading alone. Reading from morning till night every day, often forgetting to eat and sleep. After studying for a long time, I am tired, but I still don't rest.
After a long time, I was too tired to doze off. Afraid of affecting his study, he came up with a special method. In ancient times, men had long hair.
He found a rope and tied it firmly to the beam. When he is tired of reading, he dozes off. When his head is lowered, the rope will hold his hair and hurt his scalp, wake up immediately and continue to study.
2, Su Qin thorn stocks
During the Warring States Period, there was a man named Su Qin, who was also a famous politician. When I was young, because of the lack of knowledge, I went to many places to do things and was not taken seriously. After returning home, his family was also very cold and looked down on him.
This is a great stimulus to him. So, he made up his mind to study hard. He often studies late into the night, is very tired, often takes a nap and wants to sleep. So he thought of a way, prepared an awl and stabbed himself in the thigh when he dozed off. In this way, I suddenly felt pain, woke up by myself, and then insisted on reading.
Sun Kangying is studying in the snow.
Sun Kang loved studying when he was a child, and often felt that time was not enough. He wants to study day and night, but his family is poor and has no money to buy lamp oil. You can't study when it's dark. Especially in winter, when the nights are long, he sometimes toss and turn for a long time, making it difficult to sleep. There's really no choice but to read more books during the day and sleep in bed at night.
One night, when he woke up, he suddenly found some white light coming in from the window. I saw a heavy snow when I opened the door. The roof is white, the ground is white, and the trees are white. The whole earth was covered with a layer of silver, shining and dazzling.
He was standing in the yard enjoying the beautiful scenery behind the snow, and suddenly his heart moved: Can you study under the snow? He hurried back to the house, took out his book and looked at the reflection of snow. Sure enough, the handwriting is clear, much brighter than the dim little oil lamp.
From then on, Sun Kang no longer worried about the lack of lamp oil. Throughout the winter, he studied day and night, neither afraid of the cold nor tired, and often read the cock crow. Even if the north wind whizzes and drops of water turn into ice, he never stops learning. Sun Kang made great efforts to make progress in his studies, and finally became a prestigious scholar.
Li Bai is both sensible and diligent.
Li Bai was a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, but he didn't study hard when he was a child. One day, in the middle of his book, he became impatient: "When can I finish reading such a thick book?" So he simply stopped reading, threw away the book and slipped out to play. Li Bai runs happily. Suddenly, he saw an old woman grinding an iron bar on a grindstone.
Li Bai felt very strange, so he squatted down and stared blankly for a while. Grandma also ignored him, just absorbed in grinding. Later, Li Bai couldn't help it and asked, "Grandma, what are you doing?" "I am grinding needles to sew clothes." Grandma didn't look up, grinding intently.
"sharpen the needle?" Li Bai is even stranger. "How can such a thick iron bar be ground into a needle? ! "Grandma looked up and said," Son, no matter how thick the iron bar is, I'm afraid you can't grind a needle! " " ?
Li Bai suddenly realized, "Yes! As long as you have perseverance, you can succeed no matter how difficult things are. Isn't reading the same! " So he immediately turned and ran home, picked up the book that had been thrown on the ground, read it attentively, and never dared to be lazy again. Later, he finally became a great poet in the history of China.
5. Song Lian copied books and studied hard.
Song Lian liked reading when he was a child, but his family was poor and he had no money to buy books, so he had to borrow them from others. Every time he borrows a book, he agrees on a deadline, returns it on time, and never breaks the contract. People are willing to lend them to him.
Once, he borrowed a book, and the more he read it, the more he couldn't put it down, so he decided to copy it. However, the deadline for returning the book is coming, so he has to copy the book all night. It was the middle of the winter and the twelfth month, and the water droplets turned into ice. His mother said, "son, it's midnight, so it's so cold." Copy it at dawn. People are not waiting for this book. "
Song Lian said, "No matter how many people are waiting to read this book, it must be returned before the deadline. This is a question of credit and a sign of respect for others. If you are dishonest in what you say and do, how can you get the respect of others? "
Once again, Song Lian was going to consult a famous person in the distance and set a meeting date, but it snowed on the day of departure. When Song Lian picked up her luggage and was ready to go on the road, her mother said in surprise, "How can you travel far in this weather?" Besides, the teacher has closed the mountain in heavy snow. Your old cotton-padded jacket can't resist the cold in the mountains! "
Song Lian said, "Mom, if you don't leave today, you will miss the start date and miss the appointment." Losing is disrespectful to the teacher. No matter how heavy the snow is, I have to hit the road. "
When Song Lian arrived at the teacher's house, the teacher praised him movingly and said, "Young people, keep promises and be studious, and will make great achievements in the future!"
