Books grew up with her

——Xu Gongqiao’s father created a good environment for his children to study

Xu Gongqiao is one of the first batch of students in my country She is the only female doctor among the 18 doctors she has trained. Xu Gongqiao's father was a very influential intellectual. He suffered misfortune during the ten years of turmoil, but later restored his reputation through the implementation of policies.

"Books are mentors for young people." In order to help his child become talented as soon as possible, his father bought her little cards that looked at pictures and talked while she was still learning Chinese. Later, I bought comic books, fairy tale collections, popular science picture albums...

Everything is available. There are more than 100 volumes of "Encyclopedia for Primary School Students" alone. The dazzling array of books shows children a novel world

. Gongqiao and his brothers enjoyed swimming in the ocean of books, thereby enriching their imagination, cultivating their love for science, and germinating their determination to explore the mysteries of science.

When Gongqiao was studying in primary school, she raised more than 10 chickens in her small courtyard. She observed them every day.

Later, the chickens suddenly contracted a disease and died all of a sudden. Gongqiao pestered her father and asked: "The chickens were fine, why did they die all of a sudden?" Her father did not answer the question directly, but bought some poultry feed for her.

>

Books on nutrition and disease prevention and treatment, allowing her to find answers by herself.

Gong Qiao studied Russian in middle school. After entering university, in order to gain a wider understanding of foreign science and technology trends, he began to

learn English by himself. Gongqiao's father is proficient in English, but in order to cultivate his daughter's self-learning ability, he does not provide special tutoring. He still bought a lot of reference books and let Gong Qiao study on his own, just giving a little guidance on the key points.

During the ten years of turmoil, all the books collected at home were confiscated. Gongqiao wanted to apply for graduate school, but she lacked the information at hand. At that time, her father had not yet implemented the policy, and the monthly living allowance he received only accounted for one-third of his original salary.

In this case, it is quite difficult to add books to Gongqiao. But my father was a very strong man. He collected and sold the newspapers and magazines he subscribed to every month at home, and used the money to buy books for Gongqiao. When Xu Gongqiao received her doctorate, she said with emotion: "I was trained by my father and grew up among books."

There are no books in a room. A house is like a room without windows.

——Father’s love made Andersen’s childhood joyful despite suffering

Andersen ( 1805-1875) was a famous Danish fairy tale writer. His father was interested in literature but had no fixed occupation and made a living by mending shoes. My mother is a washerwoman. The family is quite poor.

The small town where Andersen lived was home to many aristocratic landowners. They were afraid of lowering their status and would not let their children play with poor children like Andersen. Sometimes they bully Andersen and look down on Andersen. The father loves his son very much. He said to Andersen: "Don't be afraid, son, your father is here. If they ignore you, your father will play with you."

Andersen was bullied outside. , but you can get warmth at home.

Andersen's home only has a small dilapidated house. However, the walls of this small house are covered with many pictures and porcelain as decorations. The window cabinets are also filled with many toys, and next to them there is a cabinet filled with books and music sheets.

There is a landscape painting on the bookshelf and door glass... To the lonely Andersen, his home is simply an art exhibition hall.

In order to prevent the child from being lonely, his father often told him the traditional stories of ancient Arabia from "One Thousand and One Nights".

Sometimes, in order to adjust his life, his father would read a script by the famous Danish comedy writer Holbau to his children.

On their bookshelf, there is also a Danish set of Shakespeare plays. Dad often took out this collection and recited a few passages. The stories in these scripts are closer to real life and more colorful.

After listening to these stories, Andersen was full of fantasy. He wanted to perform these vivid stories through characters.

He wanted to be a director, so he dressed up the puppets carved by his father on the window display as characters in the play and started performing.

He sewed the puppets with scraps of cloth Small clothes with different identities: poor people begging for food, rich people and nobles who bully the common people, poor little children who are ignored, etc. Slowly, he developed from acting as a character in the play to real life, and began to compile puppet shows.

In order to expand the child's spiritual world, his parents often took Andersen to the streets to see those businessmen and craftsmen.

Artists, shop assistants, beggars, and people riding four-wheeled carriages were running amok. Intrusive noble landowners, hypocritical mayors and priests. Dad

Mom asked the child to study the living habits, happiness and sorrow of those people. Andersen was keenly aware that some people were pretentious. Spending and waste, some people work hard and have no food and clothing...

When Andersen was 11 years old, his father died due to poverty and illness. After repeated requests from his mother, he entered a school.

But the principal looked down on this poor boy, and Andersen was so angry that he stopped visiting the school.

Andersen said angrily to his mother: "Mom, I want to go to Copenhagen to learn my skills!" "Go, my child, you may have good luck if you go out!" Mother I approve of the child's determination.

When he arrived in Copenhagen, Andersen worked to make a living while studying, overcoming many unexpected difficulties.

Later, he learned to write and finally became an influential fairy tale writer in the world.

Miracles often appear in times of bad luck.

——Lenin’s father taught his children well

Lenin (1870-1924) ) was born in an intellectual family. His father, Ilya Nikolayev

Ch. Ulyanov studied part-time through work-study, and later became the provincial director of national education. He himself was not a reformer of the new society, but he left his excellent qualities to his children.

Ilya is a very fair person. When he was the director of education, he often conducted in-depth investigations and research

. Once, Ilya went to a school to inspect, and the students were taking a composition class. He saw a student's composition book. The last composition he wrote was marked with a big red cross by the teacher and received a zero mark. He picked up the composition and looked at it. The original title was "Today's Impression." The student wrote about the last time Ilya came to inspect the math class. He wrote:

"I found that his 'P' sound was a little unclear... I thought, I am a primary school student, but I can still pronounce the 'P' sound correctly

, and he is a director, a learned big man, but he can't pronounce the 'P' sound."

Ilya went to the teacher and asked what was going on. The teacher said that there was some lack of respect for the director in the essay.

Ilya said: "This is a very good composition, with correct grammar. It is coherent, without any fabrication, and it is written realistically.

It also fully conforms to the topic given by the teacher. ." Then, he graded the student as "excellent" and signed his name.

Ilya devoted his whole life to the development of national education. He was often away from home for weeks at a time. But every time he came home, he told the children all kinds of news he encountered outside, such as where a new school was opened, what struggles he had with inspectors and landlords, and how it developed. Education, how to overcome residents’ ignorance and prejudice, etc. He listened to his children's opinions

whenever he wanted to buy something for his family or choose a career. He usually allows children to participate in adults' conversations freely and casually, and is allowed to express different opinions. If the suggestion is incorrect, he will explain it to the child carefully; sometimes the adult's opinion is one-sided and the child's opinion is correct, he will praise the child on the spot and admit his mistake. It is this kind of democratic atmosphere that cultivates the spirit of pursuing truth in children.

Promoting a democratic style at home does not mean giving up strict discipline requirements for children.

In Ilya’s house, there are general rules for daily routine. For example, when adults are doing things, children are not allowed to make noises even if they have finished their homework in advance, so as not to affect others. If any child was disobedient or made too much noise,

he would be taken to the study room and asked to sit on a chair made of oilcloth (Lenin’s brothers and sisters called this chair

>

Become a "black chair") as a punishment, wait for mother's permission, then let it go and play again.

Lenin received a good education and influence in this environment since he was a child.

The children of Ilya became revolutionaries.

Lenin's brother Alexander was executed for his active participation in the "Volkswagen Party" and was only 21 years old when he died; his sister Anna was a member of the first Moscow Committee of the Social Democratic Party; her sister

< p>Origa, like Lenin, loves to read Marx's books; his younger brother Dmitry is a professional doctor and was arrested twice for revolutionary activities

The younger sister Maria has been in the country since 1899 Just become a professional revolutionary.

——Lee Kuan Yew’s godson now

Singapore’s cabinet minister and former prime minister Lee Kuan Yew was not only a respected founder of the nation of Singapore,

but also a respected father.

Lee Kuan Yew was born in 1923 and his ancestral home is Dangxi Township, Dabu County, Guangdong Province, China. As early as his great-grandfather, due to the pressure of life, he left his hometown and moved to Singapore. Lee Kuan Yew's wife Ke Yuzhu, whose ancestral home is Tong'an County, Fujian, is a famous lawyer in Singapore. They*** have 3 children. The eldest son, Lee Hsien Loong, once served as the Minister of Trade and Industry in the Cabinet and is currently the Deputy Prime Minister of the Government; the second son, Lee Hsien Yang, has the rank of Brigadier General and is currently the Assistant to the President and Domestic Service Executive of Singapore Telecom

Vice President. Daughter Li Weiling is a pediatrician.

Lee Kuan Yew has an important experience in educating his children, that is, communication between father and son in daily life is more important than reprimand.

Most Chinese parents will reprimand their children. In his childhood, Lee Kuan Yew also experienced this kind of "treatment" from his mother who was a cooking instructor. His mother's scolding taught him how not to make the same mistake again. After Li Guangyao became a father, he inherited this "magic weapon" that his mother taught him. When his children did something wrong, they usually had to be scolded by him. But he never punished his children corporally.

In real life, it is more important to communicate with children more than to scold them. Therefore, he always looks for various opportunities

to be with children. Usually, he has dinner with his children. He takes the kids on a trip at least once a year, for about two weeks at a time. When he goes golfing, he also likes to take them with him

.

Lee Kuan Yew had a lot of official duties and was very busy, but he still found time to spend with his children. Taking children to visit relatives is also something Lee Kuan Yew often does. He especially attaches great importance to family reunions on Spring Festival and New Year's Eve. Through this kind of occasion,

He gave the children the opportunity to get to know new members of the family, including the new baby in the family, and in turn gave relatives

friends the chance to get to know their own children. Chance. Lee Kuan Yew believed: "With regular contact, everyone will help each other."

In the past decade or two, Singapore's material life has become increasingly rich, but Lee Kuan Yew strongly advocated that children should be educated

Frugal living habits. He believes that otherwise, children will lose the motivation to create and struggle, and lose the spirit of self-reliance. He compared parents who blindly provide their children with the enjoyment of life to "Santa Claus." Because

Santa Claus is always generous in giving food, daily necessities and all kinds of fun things to children. Lee Kuan Yew saw this tendency in the "courtesy" his grandchildren received. Indeed, the lives of his grandchildren are countless times better than when he was a child. They have fashionable clothes, nicer shoes, more modern toys, they have almost anything they could want. Therefore, Lee Kuan Yew expressed his worries in an interview with a reporter from Singapore's English-language "The New Paper": "One day, children will enter society, regardless of whether they will be employed.

< p>For people, there will be no 'Santa Claus' at that time. They have to rely on their own labor to get what they want

For their long-term interests, they will do it from now on. You must understand the principle of 'one thing for another'."

Because of this, Lee Kuan Yew never gives gifts to his grandchildren easily. He feels that it does nothing to them

What a benefit.

Singapore’s television industry is very developed and the content is very rich. Someone asked Lee Kuan Yew: "Are you worried about the impact of television culture on children?" Lee Kuan Yew's view was very positive. In order not to let his grandchildren waste precious time in front of the TV

, Lee Kuan Yew supported his younger son Lee Hsien Yang's approach of not installing a TV at home. Of course, Li Guangyao is not sure that not buying a TV is a complete solution to the problem, because the grandchildren can go to his grandfather's house nearby to watch TV. To solve this problem, Lee Kuan Yew believes that the key lies in parents' behavior and the correct guidance of their children.

On the one hand, parents themselves should not sit in front of the TV at night and watch programs one channel after another; on the other hand, when children are blindly watching TV programs, they should be patient and Tell them

that instead of wasting time like this, it is better to read more books. Reading good books is good for them. To this end, Lee Kuan Yew suggested developing some corresponding countermeasures to solve the problem of young people watching unlimited TV. For example, when children should study and rest, Singapore's television organizations can cancel children's programs and so on.

From the time when children were sensible, Lee Kuan Yew taught them not to rely on their parents and to follow their own path. When the eldest son Lee Hsien Loong was promoted from cabinet minister to deputy prime minister, people had always believed that Hsien Loong was his father's successor. But Lee Kuan Yew firmly opposed it. He said that the job of prime minister is not private property and cannot be passed down to his son. Sure enough, when Lee Kuan Yew retired, Goh Chok Tong assumed the position of Prime Minister. Lee Hsien Loong has no complaints about his father's arrangements.

The true happiness and joy of life are steeped in close family relationships.

——The influence of family military temperament on Washington

George Washington, the founder of the United States of America man, the first president of the United States. He led the American people

to win the great victory of the War of Independence, established the United States of America, and set a precedent in the world for the people to elect the president

and put an end to changes in power due to changes in power. The war caused serious disasters to the people. The American people regard him

as the Founding Father. Washington's growth path is directly related to the influence of his family's military temperament on him.

Washington was born on February 22, 1732 at Cypress Creek Farm in Westmoreland County, Virginia, USA. His father, Augustine Washington, was a serious and knowledgeable old man. His first wife became ill and died after giving birth to four children; his second wife, named Mary, gave birth to four sons and two daughters, and her eldest son was Joe

Government? Washington.

Washington’s family is of British descent. The family was immigrating to the American continent. They had made military exploits in the war to conquer the Indians, so the descendants of this family always have a certain military temperament passed down from generation to generation.

Washington has been extremely intelligent since he was a child, eager to make progress, and has extraordinary ambitions. He has the genetic genes of this family. He had great admiration for his half-brother Lawrence Washington, and he longed to fight on the battlefield and make meritorious deeds like his brother Lawrence.

When Lawrence was 15 years old, he was sent to England to study. At the age of 22, when the war between Britain and Spain for the colonies began, he went to the West Indies to participate in the war. In the battle, he was both wise and brave, and won the admiration of Admiral General Vernon.

After two years of fighting, there were frequent letters home. Whenever he received a letter from home, his father always read aloud the thrilling scenes describing naval battles. Little George was always fascinated and excited, determined to be a soldier like his brother.

My brother’s father-in-law, Mr. William Fairfax, was a man with various adventure experiences. A knowledgeable and sophisticated old man. Little George has a pure and beautiful heart. He follows goodness and is always pursuing good and beautiful things. He highly respected and admired this old man who had received a civilized education from the upper class of Europe. The old man also liked the clever little George very much. He told the polite and extremely smart Washington about his extraordinary experiences and various insights with passion

. This enriched his knowledge and broadened his horizons.

He got to know many things in the world and understood many truths. The family's military temperament passed down from generation to generation subtly influenced Washington, making Washington develop a positive character since he was a child.

Washington has been very serious about learning and doing things since he was a child. When the simple teaching content of the village school could not satisfy his strong desire for knowledge, his father promptly chose a better school. Soon, he became bored with the English teaching methods and arithmetic skills here. Despite this, he completed his homework and assignments meticulously

.

When Washington was 11 years old, his father died suddenly. His mother said to him: Son, don't rely on the meager inheritance left by your father. You should use your own strength to open up a prosperous road.

The United States is a country that values ??commerce and trade. In this country, it has never discriminated against businessmen and looked down upon commerce and trade.

While Chinese children were still studying the Four Books and Five Classics arduously, and were keen on crowding on the narrow path of the imperial examination

, Washington, with the support of his fathers, was concentrating on studying the infinite vastness of business. trading. Before he was 13 years old, he could neatly copy the writing formats of business documents, legal documents, bills of exchange, promissory notes, bonds, etc. into books. He also relied on early self-study to learn the drafting skills of lawyers, and developed the habit and skills of keeping accounts at all times like a shrewd businessman. This played an immeasurable role in his later surveying land, managing manors, and even handling important military affairs.

When Washington was 15 years old, he had a romantic puppy love full of hazy consciousness. He is obsessed with

a girl who is called a "low-income beauty". It was a dance held at Fairfax's home. Washington fell in love at first sight with this tender, older girl and couldn't help himself. Her blue eyes as clear as lake water, her slender waist, her every smile and every move made this young man's soul move.

. Washington suffered from insomnia. However, he is a reserved person. A boy who follows the rules everywhere, he cannot break the independent code of conduct. He maintained an oppressive silence, freed from his puppy love.

As the conflicts with the colonists became increasingly acute, Washington devoted himself to the American Revolutionary War in order to fight for national independence.

At the beginning, Washington was elected commander-in-chief of the federal army. During his seven years of commanding the U.S. military, there were defeats and victories. His family was neither discouraged by his defeats nor intoxicated by his victories, and encouraged him to keep fighting

>

Victory.

In 1784, Washington took off his military uniform and left the army. In April 1789, he was elected president of the United States.

Family is a natural grassroots cell of society, where the beautiful life of human beings is realized, where the power of human victory

grows, where children live and grow, - —This is the chief joy of life.

——Under the guidance of his father, Li Bai determined to become a talent since childhood

Li Bai (701-762) is one of the great poets in the history of our country. one. The reason why he was able to "open his mouth to write a poem and wave the Han Xia San" and write thousands of poems that were recited by the people was mainly the result of his long-term hard study and diligent study

fruit. Of course, it has something to do with tutoring.

Li Bai’s father was a man of great literary accomplishment. When Li Bai was just sensible, he once heard his father reading "Zixu Fu" in his study. The beautiful and moving words made Li Bai charming. At first, his father thought that he

didn't understand. Later, his father discovered that whenever he read poems, Li Bai would come to his father, stare at him, and

listen carefully. Sometimes he expresses his joys and sorrows along with his father's emotional ups and downs. So, his father left him to study and recite together in the study. When Li Bai was a child, he spent almost every day in his study.

Under his father's education, Li Bai "recited Liujia at the age of five" (referring to the sixty years of birth), and "viewed hundreds of schools of thought at the age of ten" (referring to the scholars) (all kinds of books from Baijia)), and began to learn to write articles and poems at the age of fifteen. His earliest works

"Xiyu Chun Fu", "Mingtang Fu" and "Da Hunting Fu" were all valued by literary giants.

Li Bai's enterprising spirit is particularly strong, and he even has ambitions that exceed those of Sima Xiangru. In order to make himself a

educated person, he made great determination and lived with a good friend in Qingcheng Mountain near Chengdu, where he concentrated on studying

and became well-read. Books, studying poetry and calligraphy. He studied hard in Qingcheng Mountain for several years without ever going into the city for a stroll.

However, when Li Bai was a boy, he was not without wavering in his studies. When he was studying in Elephant Er Mountain in Meizhou, Sichuan, he could not adapt to the hardship and intensity of study. He once wanted to give up his studies midway and become a free and wandering person. The prodigal son. One day, when he left Elephant Ear Mountain and walked to the river at the foot of the mountain, he met an old lady named Wu with gray hair squatting by the river and grinding an iron pestle. Li Bai was so surprised that he walked up to ask his aunt what she was doing.

Aunt Wu pointed at the iron tree and said, "I want to grind it into a needle.

"Li Bai thought the old lady was making fun of him, but he didn't believe what she said, so he asked, "Can such a thick iron pestle be ground into a needle?" The old lady said meaningfully to Li Bai: "As long as you work hard, an iron pestle can be ground into a needle." "Li Bai felt startled after hearing this, and was suddenly filled with emotion.

I meditated alone by the river for a long time, and got great inspiration from it. So, he walked firmly into the mountains again,

p>

Determined to continue his career

From then on, "an iron pestle grinds into a needle" became Li Bai's motto. He always required himself to "read" in this spirit.

< p>Breaking ten thousand volumes of books." Because of this, the poems he wrote later can reach the level of being able to pick up the words at your fingertips and make the witty words come naturally.

Perseverance can be carved into stone.

——Northern Song Dynasty poet Zhang Lei recited poems to teach his children

Northern Song Dynasty poet Zhang Lei ( 1054-1114), he could recite poems and write poems at the age of 17. At the age of 17, he wrote the popular "Hangguan Fu". When he was young, he studied under Su Shi and was highly appreciated by Dongpo laymen. He was a Jinshi at the age of 18, and held various official positions such as secretary of the province, editor of the book, inspector of the history library, and director of the living room. There are few poems that reflect the suffering of working people. What is more commendable is that in order to educate his sons Zhang (He Ju) and Zhang Jue, he wrote a seven-character poem based on the example of his neighbor who sells sesame seed cakes. /p>

Zhang Lei’s neighbor is a sesame seed seller. He carefully observes the miserable life of the sesame seed seller: The bakery seller wakes up five times a day and sells them along the street, even in the wind. The rain and the cold weather never stopped. Over time, the hardships of the cake seller deeply moved the poet. He thought, no matter what you do, as long as you are determined to go far, you can achieve more than three hundred achievements. If you work tirelessly

you will eventually succeed. In order to educate his son and learn the qualities of the cake seller who is not afraid of difficulties, he wrote Chenger's

poetry:

< p>The moon on the city wall is like frost, and the sound of the five o'clock in the building is heart-wrenching. Shoot my cake, don't worry about the coldness of the clothes.

No matter how high or low the career is, the ambition should be strong. The man wants to be at ease.

The main idea of ??the poem is: The moon has set in the west. A thick layer of white frost had accumulated on the city wall. It was just after dawn, and the cake seller walked out of his house with a cake plate in hand and hawked along the streets. The cold wind was as sharp as an arrow blowing against the cake seller and his cake plate. At this time, what he was worried about was not the coldness of his thin clothes, but the fear of the cold.

The wind blows cold sesame cakes and cannot be sold. An ambitious person, no matter whether his profession is noble or low, he must have perseverance and perseverance to achieve his goal, and he must not be idle. , covet comfort.

——With the support of his mother, Xu Xiake traveled all over the mountains and rivers of his motherland

Xu Xiake (1586-1641) was born in a declining family in Jiangyin, Jiangsu Province. Although his family has declined,

there are many books in his family. Especially fortunately, Xu Xiake has a very good mother. My mother is cheerful,

hard-working and virtuous, knowledgeable about books and etiquette, and full of ideals. The financial control of the family and the education of the children all fell on her.

When Xu Xiake was young, he began to listen to his mother telling historical stories and the principles of being a human being, which aroused his strong desire to seek knowledge and explore

wonders. Once, when her mother was talking about "Zuo Zhuan" and talked about the sentence "People's livelihood depends on diligence, and diligence leads to failure", Xu Xiake said: "Mom, I know the meaning of this." "Tell me about it." "How do you understand?" p>As long as you are diligent, you will not lack anything.

"My mother smiled with satisfaction after hearing this.

From then on, Xu Xiake spent almost all his time reading carefully in his father's study except during meal time. After he read the whole shelf

of books, He also collected the books on history, geography, and adventure travel notes that were his favorite and most impressive, and read them over and over again. After entering the private school, he often carried these books with him. . He felt that he could see the great rivers and mountains of the motherland and understand the history of the nation from these books, which would broaden his mind and generate strength.

Later, he decided to give up the imperial examination. At this time, Xiake's father passed away and he was determined to realize his ambition with only an old mother at his side. >There was some hesitation. The mother understood her son's thoughts and encouraged him: "Son, as a man, you should aim at everything. You should not give up your ambitions for the sake of your family, like a pig because of your family. The chicken in the fence, the pony dog ??on the carriage's shaft. In order to encourage her son, the mother even made a "travel hat" for her son and let him wear it on the journey.

In the beginning, Xiake mostly traveled in
