Modesty On Adolf Baeyer's 1th birthday. He thought that his parents would celebrate him like other children's parents. But this day: his mother took him to his grandmother's house early in the morning and spent the whole day there, without mentioning his birthday at all. Baeyer was very unhappy. On the way home, he kept pouting and didn't talk. When his mother saw him, she said earnestly, "Your father was 41 years old when I gave birth to you, and he was still a lout. Now he is 51 years old, but just like you, he is studying hard and will take the exam tomorrow. I don't want to delay his study because of your birthday. Time is too precious for him. You are still young, so you should learn to cherish it. " Mother's words, like rain and dew, moisten Baeyer's young heart bit by bit. Later, he recalled: "This is the most generous gift my mother gave me for my 1th birthday." When Baeyer was studying in university, the name of Professor Jaragu, an organic chemist, spread all over Germany. However, the professor was still very young at that time. Some scientific retired people always criticize him with such and such questions. One day, Baeyer chatted with his father and mentioned Professor Jalagu. Baeyer said, "Jalagu is only six years older than me ..." The implication is that this man is nothing. Father was very dissatisfied. He said to Baeyer, "How about being six years older? Isn't it worth learning?"? When I was studying geology, all the teachers were 3 years younger than me. I respectfully called them teachers and listened to their lectures carefully. You should remember that age and knowledge are not necessarily proportional. No matter who you are, as long as you have knowledge, you should learn from him with an open mind. " English composition on making people progress with modesty

Pride makes people lag behind. In life and study, there are many such examples. When we succeed, we should not be complacent and proud, but should set higher goals for ourselves. My pride that time has made me unforgettable. That was last semester. In an English test, I got 1 points by luck, and I was the first in the whole grade. When I first heard the news, I was so excited that I really wanted to tell my parents at once and show my prestige. When I got home, I quickly said proudly to my father, "Look, Dad, I got 1 points in the English test. How great I am! I have only one hundred points in the whole grade, and I am unique. " With that, I handed the test paper to my father. Dad carefully looked at the test paper several times and wrote an opinion: I hope you won't be proud and keep this score. After writing, he said to me, "Although I got 1 points this time, I can't be proud!" " A few weeks later, the next unit will be tested again. That night, I finished my homework and was watching TV in the living room. At this time, my brother said to me, "You haven't reviewed yet, and you will have a test tomorrow morning." I proudly said, "I didn't review last time, didn't I get 1 points?" Leave me alone, I can do it! " In the evening, I glanced at the text several times. I thought I could do the words, so I didn't look at them. The next day, I finished the answer sheet easily. Unexpectedly, when the test paper was handed out, I looked at it and said, "89 points!" No way, I read the wrong questions carefully and found that many of them were wrong points. At this time, a classmate said that the English teacher asked me, and I followed him to the teacher. The teacher scolded me and said, "Are you kidding? An excellent classmate like you even wrote wrong words. Why?" ..... "I was asked speechless. On the way home, I kept thinking and saying to myself, "It's all my pride. I shouldn't be complacent. Why?" Why ...

The king can be said to be the mainspring of a giant clock that tells the time, and it ruthlessly stipulates the schedule of work and rest.

The story (3 celebrities)

Everything comes to him who waits

"Everything comes to him who waits" is a famous saying, which tells people that nothing can be done as long as they are diligent.

For example, Sun Jing, a person from the Jin Dynasty, tied a rope to his hair and tied the other end to the beam every night in order not to doze off. Whenever his head drooped, the rope would wake him up and continue reading after waking up. In this way, he became a celebrity who used a hanging beam to prevent himself from falling asleep. Su Qin, who is also a spy, has always been looked down upon by others because he can't get an official in Qin. So he decided to fight for breath. From then on, he studied hard and forgot to eat and sleep. Whenever it is late at night and it is quiet all around, Su Qin is already dizzy and always wants to sleep. He immediately pricks his thigh with an awl, feeling pain, and people wake up. This is Su Qin, a celebrity who woke himself up by stabbing stocks.

Another example is Kuang Heng in the Western Han Dynasty. His family is poor, but he likes reading very much. However, there was no oil to light a lamp in his house at night, and a lamp was lit in his neighbor's room, so Kuang Heng dug a hole in the wall to read with the light coming from the hole. This is the story of "digging a wall to borrow light".

There is also the modern Xu Beihong, whose paintings are famous at home and abroad. When he was young, he inspired himself to learn painting, and with his hard work, he won glory for our country and prevented foreigners from looking down on us China people.

From these celebrity stories, everyone must have learned a truth: Only by sticking to the end and persevering can we make a difference.

I had the same experience when I was growing up. In the second grade of primary school, I studied Chinese painting and electronic organ. At that time, the teacher was very strict, and I was very diligent. I insisted on painting and practicing piano every night. A year later, I passed the Chinese painting level 2 exam and the electronic organ level 4 exam. Unfortunately, the art teacher stopped teaching later, and I gradually relaxed my painting practice, from painting one every day to painting one every week, which gradually abandoned me. For the study of electronic piano, I have always finished. No matter whether it is windy or rainy, it is hot or cold, I insist on going to school by car for more than two hours every Sunday, and it is always dark when I get home. After returning home, I also insisted on practicing for nearly an hour every night, and with the urging of my parents, I finally made some achievements.

From my study of painting and electronic piano, I deeply realized the profound meaning of the sentence "Everything comes to him who waits". You can't do anything half-heartedly, half-heartedly, but you must finish what you started and persevere. Only in this way can we make a difference and make due contributions to the people and society.
