Dreaming of celebrity stories On this issue, I think Fan Zhongyan had a very hard life when he was a young student because of his poor family. Every night, he cooks a bowl of porridge with brown rice. When the porridge is frozen the next morning, he cuts it into four pieces with a knife, two in the morning and two in the evening. This is "cutting porridge". If there are no vegetables, cut some pickles for dinner. This is called "broken horseshoe crab". Life is so hard, but he has no complaints and concentrates on his studies. The allusion to "broken porridge" comes from this. Fan Zhongyan's hard life, after being known by the son of the local left-behind officials, expressed deep sympathy and sent a delicious meal from home. Fan Zhongyan expressed his gratitude and accepted the meal. A few days later, when the left-behind son came to see Fan Zhongyan, he saw that the food he gave him was still there, and it was all broken and puzzled. Fan Zhongyan explained: "I really appreciate your good meal, but I'm used to porridge at ordinary times and I don't feel so bitter." Now, if I am greedy for these things and used to eating delicious food, what shall I do in the future? "After the left-behind son came home, he told his father exactly what Fan Zhongyan said. His father praised him and said, "What an ambitious child! He will certainly make great achievements in the future! " Later, Fan Zhongyan finally became a famous writer, politician and strategist in the Song Dynasty. 2. The Wright brothers' flying dream 100 Years ago, a poor shepherd and his two young sons herded sheep for others to make a living. One day, they drove the sheep to a hillside, and a group of geese flew over their heads singing and soon disappeared in the distance. The shepherd's youngest son asked his father, "Where did the goose go?" The shepherd said, "They are going to a warm place, where they will settle down and spend the cold winter." The eldest son blinked and said enviously, "If only I could fly like a wild goose." The youngest son also said, "I wish I were a flying goose!" " The shepherd was silent for a while, and then said to his two sons, "You can fly if you want." The two sons tried, but neither could fly. They looked at their father suspiciously. The shepherd said, "Let me fly to you." So he opened his arms, but he couldn't fly. However, the shepherd said firmly, "I can't fly because I am old." You are still young. As long as you keep working hard, you will fly and go where you want to go in the future. " The two sons firmly remember their father's words and have been working hard. When they grow up, when their brother is 36 and their brother is 32, they can really fly, because they invented the plane. These two men are the Wright brothers in America. 3. Boggs' ideal Boggs, the first player of the Charlotte Hornets, loved basketball since childhood and "bullfights" with his companions on the basketball court almost every day. At that time, his dream was to play the NBA one day. Boggs is only 1.60 cm tall, which is considered a dwarf among orientals, not to mention the tall NBA. Boggs is not only the shortest player in the NBA now, but also one of the best defenders in the NBA with the least mistakes. Not only is he first-class in possession of the ball, but he is also very accurate in long-range shooting, even taking the ball to the basket fearlessly in front of tall players. Every time people see Boggs flying around like a wasp, they can't help but admire him. His performance not only comforted the hearts of short people who love basketball, but also inspired the inner will of ordinary people. 4, Chen She "Swallows know the ambition of a swan"-Chen She worked for others when he was young. Once, he stopped farming and walked on the ridge for a long time. He said, "If one of us becomes rich in the future, don't forget the others."

Studying for the Rise of China —— Zhou Enlai left his hometown of Huai 'an, Jiangsu Province as a teenager to study in Dongguan Model School. On this day, President Wei personally gave the students a self-cultivation class entitled "Life". At that time, it was a period of dramatic social changes in China. When the headmaster talked about "making a living", he told the students how to aspire to it. President Wei suddenly stopped talking about highlights. Question: Why do students study? At that time, someone replied, "study for fame and fortune." Others replied: "study and be an official." Zhou Enlai, a student at that time, replied loudly: "Learn for the rise of China!" President Wei praised: "Where there is a will, there is a pupil!" At that time, Zhou Enlai was only 12.

Mao Yisheng is determined to build a bridge-Mao Yisheng is an expert in bridge building in China. When he was a child, his family lived in Nanjing. There is a river called Qinhuai River not far from his home. Dragon boat races are held every year on the Qinhuai River during the Dragon Boat Festival. On this day, there was a sea of people on both sides of the river. Dragon boats on the river are all dressed in red and hung in green. The lively scene is really exciting. Mao Yisheng, like all his friends, looks forward to watching the dragon boat race every year before the Dragon Boat Festival. But one year after the Dragon Boat Festival, Mao Yisheng fell ill. All my friends went to see the dragon boat race. Mao Yisheng was lying in bed alone, hoping his friends would come back early and tell him about the dragon boat race. My friends didn't come back until evening. Mao Yisheng sat up and said. "Tell me, how lively is today's scene?" Friends bowed their heads and said a word for a long time; "Something happened to Qinhuai River!" "What's the matter?" Mao Yisheng was taken aback. "There are too many people watching, and the bridge on the river has collapsed. Many people fell into the river! " Mao Yisheng was very sad to hear the sad news. He seemed to see many people falling into the water, men and women, old and young, and the scene was very miserable. Return to absolute being, he ran to the Qinhuai River alone and looked at the broken bridge in a daze. He thought; When I grow up, I must be a bridge builder. The bridge built is very strong and will never collapse! From then on, Mao Yisheng paid special attention to all kinds of bridges, flat, arched, wooden and stone. When going out, no matter what kind of bridge he meets, he always looks up and down, observes it carefully, and draws the bridge he sees when he gets home. When he reads books and newspapers, he carefully collects all the information about bridges. Over time, he accumulated a lot of knowledge about building bridges. He studies hard, studies hard. After long-term efforts, I finally realized my dream and became an expert in bridge building. 7. Napoleon's "ideal star"-when Napoleon was a simple child, his uncle accidentally asked Napoleon what he wanted to be when he grew up. After listening to his uncle's question, Napoleon immediately gushed out his long-cherished ambition. Napoleon Jr. started with his determination to join the army. He was eager to lead the French army, sweep across Europe, build an unprecedented super empire and make himself the emperor of this great empire. Unexpectedly, after listening to Napoleon's ambition, my uncle laughed on the spot and pointed to Napoleon's forehead and sneered: "Fantasy, everything you said is fantasy! Want to be the emperor of France? That's impossible! In my opinion, you will still be a novelist when you grow up, but it will be easier to realize your dream of being an emperor. " Little Napoleon was robbed by his uncle for a while. Instead of being angry, he quietly went to the window, pointed to the distant horizon and asked seriously, "Uncle, can you see that star?" At noon, Napoleon's uncle went to the window in surprise and replied blankly, "What stars? It's noon, of course I can't see it! Son, are you crazy? " Facing his uncle's question again, Napoleon Jr. said calmly, "That's the star! I can really see it still hanging high in the sky, flashing for me day and night, and it is my star of hope; As long as it exists for one day, my dream will never be shattered-"In fact, the star of hope has never been hung high in the sky. It has been hidden in Napoleon's heart. Under the guidance of the inner star of hope, Napoleon finally became a real French emperor. 8. Ban Chao joined the army-When the Eastern Han Dynasty changed due to social reality, there was a famous figure named Ban Chao. He was ambitious since he was a child and determined to do something for his country. In 62 AD (the fifth year of Han Yongping), his younger brother Ban Gu was ordered to work as a school librarian in Luoyang, and he and his mother also went there together. Because of the hard life, Ban Chao had to copy documents for the court, and he was busy from morning till night every day, and the reward he got was only to make ends meet. One day, when Ban Chao was copying documents, he thought of his ambition and was very excited. He couldn't help but suddenly throw his brush on the ground, sighed and said, "Even if one has no other great ambitions, one should learn from Zhang Qian and make contributions in foreign exchanges in order to gain fame. How can you always immerse yourself in pen and ink? " Soon, he joined the army and was promoted because of his bravery in fighting and taking the lead. Later, the court sent Ban Chao to the Western Regions. In the process of many missions to the western regions, Ban Chao took only a few people, overcame many difficulties with his courage and wisdom, and made important contributions to strengthening the political, economic and cultural ties between the Han Dynasty and the western countries and ancient Rome, and was named Dingyuan Hou.

This made Lu Xun realize: "The first thing is to change their spirit." So Lu Xun made up his mind to give up medicine and become a great thinker, revolutionary and writer in modern China. 10, Pierre? Cardin's Choice-Pierre, a French teenager, likes dancing since he was a child. His ideal is to be an excellent dancer. But because of his poor family, his parents can't afford him to go to dance school. Pierre's parents sent him to a sewing shop as an apprentice, hoping that after he learned a craft, he could help his family lighten the burden. He was frustrated that his ideal could not be realized. Pierre believes that it is better to end his life earlier than to live in such pain. On the night when he was about to commit suicide, he suddenly remembered Boudrie, who he admired since childhood and had the reputation of "the father of ballet music". Pierre felt that only Boudrie could understand his dedication to art, so he decided to write a letter to Budri, hoping that Boudrie would accept him as an apprentice. At the end of the letter, he wrote that if Boudrie didn't reply within a week and refused to accept him as a student, he would devote himself to art. Soon, Pierre received a reply from Boudrie. Boudrie said in his letter that he wanted to be a scientist when he was a child. Because his family was poor, he couldn't send him to school, so he had to wander around with a busker ... Finally, he said that there is always a certain distance between reality and ideal in life. In ideal and real life, we must first choose to survive. Only by living well can the ideal stars shine; A person who doesn't even cherish his own life is not worthy to talk about art ... Budley's answer made Pierre suddenly wake up. Later, he studied sewing skills hard, and started his fashion career in Paris at the age of 23. Soon, he established his own company and clothing brand. This is Pierre Cardin. In an interview with reporters, Pierre Cardin said that he didn't have the qualities of a dancer, and becoming a dancer was just a frivolous dream of a teenager.
