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.

Appreciate:
In the first two sentences of this poem, the poet describes the learning environment. "This is the night when men study." The evening is almost from 1 1 to 1 in the morning. Perhaps for people nowadays, nightlife has just begun.
But in ancient times, the sun rose and set, and everything was silent, "the lights were off." However, teenagers who love learning still work and study by lighting candles in the middle of the night, and only after a short rest do they arrive at the Five Watches.
That is, around 3 or 5 in the morning, I got up with the crow and continued to study. In this sentence, the poet described a teenager who forgot to eat and sleep and studied hard through two paragraphs.
In his poems, he affirmed the spirit of young people's persistence in learning, and implied that only by continuous learning can they enrich themselves and realize their ambitions in life. The next two sentences are the essence of the whole poem. "Black hair doesn't know how to study hard early, and Bai Shoufang regrets studying late."
The poet said that if you don't study hard when you are young, it will be too late to study again when you are old. Through these two sentences, the poet warned the world that it is early to study and enrich yourself with youth.
To realize the importance of learning, don't wait until you get old and your sideburns turn white. This "Persuade to Learn" is easy to understand, philosophical and thought-provoking.
All the essence of the whole poem focuses on "black hair doesn't know how to study hard early, but it's too late to learn." In these two sentences. On the one hand, we advise young people to study hard and stick to it. Only in this way can they learn skills and build achievements.
On the other hand, it also implies that people should cherish their youth, do the right things at the right time, let life get the meaning it deserves, and don't waste it.
