During the Warring States Period, Su Qin was tired of studying day and night, so he stabbed himself in the leg with an awl to keep his head clear. 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, who stole lamps from the rulers, were too poor 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 in Mo Chi, practiced calligraphy hard since childhood.

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".

Helen Keller has a book. Have you read it? The name of this book is The Story of Diligence and Learning. There are many stories about celebrities' hard work in this book, and I will tell one of them: I believe everyone knows Helen Keller, right? She is a famous American woman writer. When she was a child, she was seriously ill, which made her blind and deaf. When Helen was seven years old, her parents hired a teacher to help her with her study. However, Helen can't see or hear. How does she learn? So the teacher thought of a way: first give her a doll to play with, and then write the word doll on her palm to let Helen know what a doll is. Therefore, Helen soon fell in love with this learning method. Since then, Helen has studied like this. She remembered them one by one. Over time, she learned many words. You can think about what difficulties Helen has to overcome as a deaf and blind child. But she was not afraid of difficulties, studied life with amazing perseverance, and eventually became a world-famous writer. Now, people's living conditions and learning conditions are much better, so we don't have to "steal the beam to replace the column" any more, let alone imitate the practice of "hanging the beam with thorns". But the spirit of the ancients is worth studying. We are all healthy people, much better than Helen Keller. As long as we learn not to be afraid of difficulties, not to give up halfway, to study hard and to be successful, we will certainly succeed.

Edison is a famous invention king in the world. He invented 1000 items, such as electric lights, phonographs and film machines. However, when Edison was a child, he only went to school for a few years because his family was poor. At the age of twelve, he went to the train to sell newspapers. If he can't go to school, he will teach himself. He loves learning very much. He sells newspapers while reading them, taking time to study and do experiments. Edison's father is strict with his family at ordinary times. He stipulates that the whole family must turn off the lights and sleep before 1 1 half past one every night. However, when Edison came home from selling newspapers, it was often eleven o'clock in the evening, and when he got home, he had no time to do his favorite experiments. How does he work? This is unbearable for Edison who likes to learn and explore by himself. So he thought about it and finally came up with a good way to get his father to support himself in the experiment. One day, Edison put a wire on the tree with a copper wire, which was directly connected to his good friend's house, leaving the newspaper and a telegraph machine left at his friend's house. When he comes home at night, his father wants to read the newspaper. Edison said today's newspaper was sold out. At first, his father was not very sorry. In order to arouse his father's interest, Edison began to talk about how fresh and interesting the contents of today's newspaper are. It is a pity that he didn't read it. Edison's father listened to him so vividly that he wanted to see it. So he asked Edison if he could find another one. Edison said that his friend Gary had another copy, and he could send out the contents of the newspaper by telegram. At this time, Edison's father was addicted to reading newspapers, so he promised him happily.

4, "Joule's knowledge-studious" The famous British scientist Joule loved physics from an early age. He often does some experiments about electricity and heat by himself. One holiday, Joule and his brother traveled to the suburbs. Joule, who is clever and studious, never forgets to do his physics experiments even when he is playing. He found a lame horse, led by his brother, and quietly hid behind him. He used a volt battery to electrify the horse, trying to see how the animals reacted after being stimulated by the current. As a result, the reaction he wanted to see appeared. The horse jumped wildly after being shocked and almost kicked its younger brother. Although the danger has appeared, it has not affected the mood of little Joule who loves to do experiments. He rowed with giggle to the lake surrounded by mountains, where Joule wanted to try the echo. They filled the musket with gunpowder and then pulled the trigger. Who knows "bang", a long flame spouted from the muzzle and burned Joule's eyebrows, almost scaring my brother into the lake. At this time, the sky was covered with thick clouds, lightning and thunder. Joule, who just wanted to go ashore to take shelter from the rain, found that it took a long time to hear the thunder after every lightning. What happened? Joule didn't take shelter from the rain, dragging his brother up a hill and carefully recording the time of lightning and thunder with his pocket watch. After school started, Joule almost wanted to tell the teacher all the experiments he had done and ask for advice from the teacher.

The teacher smiled at Joule, who was eager to learn and curious, and patiently explained to him: "The speed and harmony of light are different. The speed of light is fast and the speed of sound is slow, so people always want to see lightning before hearing thunder, but in fact lightning and thunder happen at the same time. " Joule suddenly realized. Since then, he has been more fascinated by learning scientific knowledge. Through continuous study and careful observation and calculation, he finally discovered the mechanical equivalence of heat and the law of conservation of energy, and became an excellent scientist.

5, "Barene Overcomes Disability-Persistence" Barene was disabled due to illness when she was a child, and her mother felt like a knife, but she still endured grief. She thinks that what children need most now is encouragement and help, not mother's tears.

Soybean-like sweat dripped from her mother's face. She wiped with a dry towel, gritted her teeth, and helped Barene finish the exercise plan for the day. Physical exercise makes up for the inconvenience caused by disability to Barene. His mother's example deeply educated Barone, and he finally withstood the severe blow of fate. He studies hard and his academic performance has always been among the best in his class. Finally, he was admitted to the Medical College of Vienna University with excellent results. After graduating from college, Barene devoted all her energy to the research of otology. Finally, I finally got on the podium of the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine.
