Learning without thinking is useless? Confucius, an educator more than two thousand years ago, once said, "Learning without thinking is useless", which means that if a person only knows rote memorization, but doesn't think and digest, he will get nothing. Confucius' words are very reasonable, and this truth is that learning and thinking should be closely combined. ?

The process from accepting knowledge to applying knowledge is actually a process of remembering and knowing, learning and thinking. Learning is the basis of thinking, and thinking is the supplement of learning. These two links are closely linked and indispensable. Just like the human body's digestion process of food, learning without thinking is useless and swallowing dates without chewing; We can't draw inferences, because it is undigested and absorbed, and the knowledge we have learned can't become our own. Only by studying and thinking can we master what we have learned and draw inferences from others. ?

The combination of learning and thinking is the only way to master knowledge, which has been proved by successful cases at home and abroad. When Marxism-Leninism spread to the land of China, the producers of Marxism-Leninism, led by Mao Zedong and Zhou Enlai, absorbed the essence of Marxism-Leninism and, in combination with the reality of China, embarked on the road of "encircling the city from the countryside" and finally created a new socialist China. Imagine, if the revolutionary ancestors did not learn to think, think and practice, but blindly copied mechanically and dogmatically, how could the China revolution succeed? Can Galileo, a great scientist in the Renaissance, make an experiment of "two iron balls touching the ground at the same time" if he didn't think independently in his research? Can mankind get rid of Aristotle's wrong theory as soon as possible? Learning and thinking, thinking and learning are the successful experiences of these great men and the source of power for human progress. ?

Today is the era of "knowledge surge". In less than a century, the field of knowledge has expanded many times. "My life is limited, but so is my knowledge." In the face of such a vast ocean of knowledge, it is impossible to reach the bright side by rote memorization alone. Therefore, American educational circles are trying to reform the original teaching system and strive to cultivate students' thinking ability and creative ability to adapt to tomorrow's science; Europe and Japan have followed suit, and the reform of China's education system is imminent and imperative. Tomorrow's creative talents should be cultivated from today's students. So do more: think in your study, put forward independent opinions in your thinking, and cultivate your thinking ability to wait for tomorrow's choice. Independent thinking in learning is the successful experience of scholars and masters and the source of power for human progress. Cultivating students' ability is the hope of China's rise tomorrow.
