Looking up at the starry sky, the boundless night triggers infinite reverie, dreams in free riding; down-to-earth, the unknown road waiting for the pioneers, practical work is the driving force of the way forward.

Premier Wen said: "Young people, not only dare to look up to the stars, but also learn to be down-to-earth." This is not only the Premier's great expectations of young people, but also an important prerequisite for the development and strength of individuals and even the country.

Looking up to the stars, but also down to earth.

I am a repeat student. The results of last year's college entrance examination made me realize that a person who only looks up to the sky is doomed to harvest failure. In those lost days of senior high school, I was so indulged in and classmates talk about ideals and will be discarded books aside; I was so focused on envisioning a good holiday and will be reviewing the back of the mind; I was so has been told to combine labor and leisure and always can not adhere to the final ...... so many "I was "Let me taste the bitter fruit of only looking up at the stars. In the "high four" repeat life, I am determined to down-to-earth, one step at a time, to the dream, to the beautiful goal of my heart! So, in the accumulation of a question, a knowledge point, I harvested a time to let me surprise the simulation results. I learned that when I learn to keep my feet on the ground, I am close to my dream, closer.

When we are proud of the Chinese footprints on the infinite stars, please don't forget that this is all because of a kind of pay and down-to-earth called "aerospace spirit". Chang'e to the moon is no longer a beautiful reverie when we look up at the starry sky, out of the cabin walking is no longer a regret that we look at other countries and sigh. The dream of the past has now come true, and the dream has come true by no means just have a dream on it. Here, condensing the blood of countless astronauts; here, gathered the dedication of countless astronauts. This is the crystallization of countless aerospace people's down-to-earth efforts! I know, when a country is down-to-earth and serious about doing things, this country from prosperity, close.

Looking up at the stars is wonderful. Under the twinkling stars, countless reverie should be born, beautiful and far away. But remember, never get lost in the beauty of the immediate, and forget that only down-to-earth can make the dream come true. Down-to-earth is real. The road ahead is long, and challenges and unknowns may come one after another at any time. But remember, never stop at the temporary bumps in the road, and forget that suffering is to refine the will, and ultimately may experience the beauty of looking up at the stars.

Because I have experienced it, I always want to tell those "future people" not to "go forward and backward" and not to indulge in the satisfaction of looking up at the starry sky; because I have witnessed it, I always hope that those of us who are the "successors" will be able to realize the importance of the future. The "successor" will be able to be as down-to-earth as the astronauts!

Personal development, the country's strength, we need to look up to the stars, but also need to learn to be down-to-earth! Perhaps this is what Premier Wen wants to tell all Chinese people.

Keywords: Premier Zhou, dare to look up

Looking up at the stars, need to "nine days on the sky to get the moon, under the five oceans to catch turtles," the bravado, need to "born to be useful! While being down-to-earth requires "no step by step can lead to a thousand miles; no small stream can become a river and an ocean". Only by combining the two can we move forward with ease and success.

Looking up to the stars is not arrogance. Hitler's attempts to dominate the globe ended in failure; Napoleon harbored ambitions of conquering Europe, and ultimately fell at the Battle of Waterloo; Japan's attempt to exterminate China in three months, but also signed on the surrender. Looking up to the stars should not be nocturnal, but guaranteed by keeping one's feet on the ground. Premier Zhou was able to have in the darkness of the old China "for the rise of China and study" determination, it is precisely because he has a down-to-earth engaged in the revolutionary cause of perseverance, have the confidence of victory and fight a "prolonged war" of perseverance. Visible, looking up to the stars to be down-to-earth as a guarantee, we not only want to raise their heads, their hopes in the stars in the sky, but also to ensure that they can be based on this solid ground, will be their own step-by-step footprints printed on the road to success.

Footing on the ground is also not a blind effort, no goal. Why do high school students struggle to choose a college major when they volunteer? Why do so many college students lose their way after graduation? Why are there still countless "returnees" in a society where talent is scarce and they become "waiters"? Is it because they have wasted their time and studies? In fact, no. It is just that they are too obsessed with burying their heads in the sand and have not lifted their eyes to gaze at the vast starry sky, have not imagined the world beyond the sky, not to mention their own ideals into a star, embellished in the unknown sky. Therefore, down-to-earth to look up to the stars as a prerequisite, people only have a goal, have an ideal, will not be lost in the boundless sea; people only have a goal, have an ideal, will not easily fall in front of all kinds of difficulties, only to have the motivation and support to continue to move forward.

Seeing this, stargazing and down-to-earth can't be one or the other. I want to look up to the stars, the pursuit of "falcon wings, wind and dust sucked Zhang; strange flowers out of the tire, everlasting" like the magnificent, must have the perseverance and perseverance of the ground; I want to be down-to-earth, the pursuit of "perseverance, gold and stone can be skeletonized" realm, it is necessary to have a starry-eyed I want to pursue the realm of "perseverance and perseverance, the stone can be hardened", I must have the ambition and ambition to look up to the stars. The two go hand in hand in order to achieve the ideal, towards success.

Premier Wen once placed great expectations on young people, expecting us to be able to look up to the stars, the country needs to be able to look up to the stars. And I would say that the country also needs people who dare to look up to the stars, we dare to shout out that "youth wisdom is the wisdom of the country, the youth rich is the wealth of the country, the youth strong is the strength of the country," and at the same time, we also have the perseverance and determination to down-to-earth to turn it into reality.

Looking up at the stars gives people dreams, and being down-to-earth gives people dignity.

Looking up at the starry sky seems to be the posture of the seeker, but in the starry sky, we see the vast universe changes, see the stars, seem to exhaust some of the mystery, but only can not see the self. In the pursuit of dreams in the process of illusion, the self is also blinded, when the pursuit of higher and higher floating at the same time, the weight of human life is getting lighter and lighter, more indifferent to the dignity of the.

However, the gesture of facing the land with feet on the ground is undoubtedly more profound. Because at this moment, people will y feel the existence of the self. To be on the ground is also a kind of creation, the creation of one's own wealth, ability and experience, and in the process of creation, constantly confirming oneself, obtaining a sense of self-identity, which can make one stand more straight, thus obtaining a kind of dignity of being born as a human being.

Only in this way can one feel the significance of one's own existence, and can one think highly of oneself. If such a belief exists, no footwork is humble, while stargazing makes one detached from reality, empty of dreams but unable to find the soil to build them. Tolstoy's later years were spent in down-to-earth labor. Tolstoy had given his son-in-law a pair of handmade leather boots, when the Tolstoy anthology *** published twelve volumes, his son-in-law jokingly referred to those boots for the thirteenth volume, and Tolstoy said that it was his favorite volume, there is nothing more dignified than he was at this time.

What life wants is to leave a mark. Emperors are always willing to carve their own achievements on the stone monument to prove his existence to others. And for the masses of people, looking up at the stars and the world has no connection, even less than the presence of birds flying through the sky, while the land will leave every foot work of the people's traces, deep and shallow, vaguely carved out your nobility and dignity.

So said, I think life can not bear the weight, only can not bear the light, stargazing people holding a balloon called dream, to the high place will always rupture. Those who are down-to-earth firmly grasp the weight of life, so as to obtain the dignity of being born as a human being.

From the moment Armstrong landed on the moon, the distance between mankind and the starry sky began to shorten. The moment Discovery landed on Mars, the distance between mankind and the stars shortened again. It all started from looking up at the stars. However, without the calculations and explorations made by generations of scientists day after day, year after year, and without the accumulation of every fine piece of data, people would only be looking up in the end.

Everything, starting from looking up to the stars, is realized on the ground.

Excluding external conditions, those who have the will and the power but do not follow the slack will be able to reach the final destination. In my opinion, "will" means to look up to the stars, which is the beginning of setting up a dream; "strength" and "not to be slack" means to be down-to-earth, which is the process of realizing a dream.

Former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, known as the "Black Pearl," is an outstanding politician. However, the beginning of her success was her childhood and her father's words when she passed by the White House door, "I'm going to go inside!" From then on, the dream opened up to her.

Those who travel to Denmark often hear the phrase, "Even if we lose everything, we still have an Andersen." And the birth of such a master of fairy tales was initially born from the dream of a shoemaker's apprentice as an artist. Andersen set out on his journey to success with his dream of being an artist and only ten coins.

It all began by looking up at the stars.

However, if Rice hadn't made a serious and well-planned effort to realize her vision, her words would have been lost in the wind. If Hans Christian Andersen hadn't worked so hard when he encountered difficulties, and if he hadn't persisted when he was stared down, he wouldn't have been able to realize his fairy tale, and he would have ended up as a cobbler.

Everything is realized on the ground.

Balzac's success began when he gave up his job as a lawyer for his dream, when he went to the people, when he was starving and cold, he said "I will crush all the difficulties"; Balzac's success accumulated by every figure he saw, accumulated by every story he heard, accumulated by his observation of life and reflection on the heart, accumulated by his observation of life and reflection on the heart, and accumulated by his observation of life. and his reflection on his heart, and ultimately the achievement of "The Human Comedy".

Newton's success was not only because he stood on the shoulders of giants, but also because of his dedication to science, and because of his observations and calculations. As Thomas Edison summarized many years later, the man who started the electrical age: Genius is 99 percent effort plus one percent inspiration.

Everything starts with looking up at the stars and is realized on the ground.

Looking up at the stars and getting down on the ground, i.e., the beginning of setting up a dream and the process of realizing the dream, are sequential, but it is difficult to say who is more important. After all, Margaret Thatcher, Premier Zhou Enlai, Marx ...... almost all the successful and great people have gone through these two processes in their entirety.

Everything starts with looking up at the stars and is realized by the feet on the ground. Having a pair of dream wings, you also have to practically flap them one by one to finally reach the other side of the dream.

Looking up at the stars gives us a dream, and being down-to-earth gives us the possibility of realizing it.

--Title Note

Literally, looking up to the stars and staying on the ground seem to be a pair of irreconcilable contradictions. It is true that for a certain moment in life, those who look up at the stars often have no time to care about the road under their feet; and those who focus on staying on the ground have no chance to appreciate the brilliant starry river. But when we unfold the timeline, from the perspective of the entire life journey to measure the weight of these two words, in fact, they are not only not the enemy, but is to support each other, indispensable close comrades.

The down-to-earth attitude allows us to make our dreams into ideals and ultimately realize them, because tomorrow is actually at our feet. Looking at the long history, people who can make a difference have never been stingy with their ability to dream, and the real achievement of their dreams, is the dream of "a thousand-mile journey begins with the first step" pragmatic attitude. Chen Sheng, a young man, bravely challenged the feudal hierarchy, shouting out the slogan, "A king and his vassal would rather have his own kind". But behind his dream, without his perseverance in fighting for the interests of the peasant class despite being enslaved by others, and without his perseverance in self-cultivation and improvement day after day, perhaps the peasants' revolts that took off in the future would have been nothing more than a beautiful scene in his dreams. Young Marx was determined to fight for the cause of ****productivism for life, but if there is no British Library in the figure of the hands day and night, if there is no decades of incessant work, the emergence of "Das Kapital", I'm afraid that it can only be a permanent dream, only to be seen from afar.

In the process of traveling on the ground, we often meet the obstacles of wind and rain. And at this time, look up at the sky that once gave himself the faith of the star, you will find yourself regained the courage and determination to break through all the difficulties and dangers. So we see, through all the human world torture Sima Qian finally completed the unprecedented after the difficult to come after the "Records of the Grand Historian"; deaf after Beethoven instead of playing the strongest sound of his life. This is because they did not forget to look up at the stars again in the process of getting down to earth, to find the stars that once made their hearts surge. It is the glory of their dreams that gives them strength.

As the backbone of the 21st century construction of the motherland, we should be more adhering to the "look up to the stars, down-to-earth" this eight-character motto. First of all, we should dare to dream, we should dare to envision the future of the motherland. The situation of weak innovation is not unchangeable, the embarrassing status of "processing country" is not unchangeable, and even the pattern of the world's hegemony of one pole is not unchangeable. These lofty ideals will show us the direction of struggle, so that our feet on the ground is no longer a simple physical output, but a brave pursuit. At the same time, the diligent attitude of "a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step" will also help us on this journey, so that we can go farther and smoother on the journey of pursuing our dreams. The perfect combination of stargazing and down-to-earth, let us confidently say: we can become the future master of the motherland.

So let's look up to the stars, and then, after finding the brightest star, embrace the pragmatic attitude of keeping our feet on the ground, and set sail firmly toward it.

Ideal, must look up to the starry sky, so that it is far away, Ideal, must be down-to-earth, so as to make it a reality.

--Title Note

Looking up, the stars twinkle like an ideal, it is not difficult for us to find the one that belongs to us; looking down, but found that the long road is long and difficult.

Those who have the will, things have not been accomplished

Wang Anshi once essayed to remember a gifted child, Zhong Yong. At the age of five, Zhong Yong was able to improvise poems, and although he had never touched a book, his poems were very impressive. His father was even more proud of him, and Zhong Yong had great aspirations to become a prime minister. However, Wang Anshi ended the story with the sentence "I am not a man of the world", why? Zhongyong has a great ambition, father and son of the two rely on their own talent, busy all day to visit the townships, around the poem to profit, did not continue to learn, thus, Zhongyong talent completely disappeared.

Zhong Yong is a man of ambition, but he doesn't know how to put his feet on the ground, so how can he realize his ideal?

Brute force, things are difficult to achieve

With a goal is equal to half of the success, then there is no goal of brute force? I'm afraid, only twice the effort.

Ronaldo reigns supreme in the world of soccer, he also intends to try his hand in the business world. On impulse, he opened a bar in his hometown, called "R9". Due to the lack of a sound business plan and clear business objectives, not long after the opening of the bar will be a series of losses, although Ronaldo with his own salary to try to save, but the bar is still closed. In the aftermath, he lost nearly 10 million dollars in assets.

Not to talk about the lofty heights, the ideal has not yet been clear, and then scattered hands to work, it is difficult to achieve great things!

The ideal is ambitious, and with down-to-earth efforts, success will be close at hand

He was born in France to an immigrant family, and his typical foreign name made his childhood in Paris unfortunate, and all the children discriminated against him and bullied him. One day he wrote in his diary, "I don't want to be president, I have to be president." From then on, he developed an independent and self-reliant character, studied furiously, obtained a master's degree in law from the University of Paris X with honors, practiced his speech skills after graduation, joined Chirac's right-wing camp, and later really became the president of France. He, called Sarkozy.

When stargazing meets down-to-earth, greatness is born.

The wise man is good at looking up at the stars and discovering the star of his ideal; the wise man, when he is down-to-earth, strives hard for the realization of his ideal.

He won the world's respect for the yellow man with one impressive achievement after another, realizing the dream under the starry sky.
