1. Li Bai:

I believe many friends know this idiom, "As long as the iron pestle is ground into a needle," the editor will tell you some of the origins of this idiom by Li Bai. The story of an iron pestle ground into a needle helps everyone deepen their impression.

Li Bai was a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, but he did not study hard when he was a child. One day, when he was halfway through the book, he became impatient: "When will I finish reading such a thick book?" So he simply stopped reading, threw the book away and slipped out to play.

Li Bai ran happily. Suddenly, he saw an old woman grinding an iron rod on the whetstone. Li Bai felt very strange, so he squatted down and stared at it stupidly for a while. The old lady ignored him and just focused on grinding. Later, Li Bai couldn't help it anymore and asked:

"Grandma, what are you doing?"

"I am grinding a needle to sew clothes." The old lady also asked. Don't lift, just concentrate on grinding.

"Grinding a needle?" Li Bai was even more surprised, "How can such a thick iron rod be ground into a needle?!"

The old lady then raised her head and said: "My child, No matter how thick the iron rod is, if I grind it every day, am I still afraid that it won't be able to grind into a needle?"

After hearing this, Li Bai suddenly realized, "That's right! As long as you have perseverance, you can succeed in anything no matter how difficult it is. , isn’t it the same with reading!”

So he immediately turned around and ran home, picked up the books thrown on the ground, read them with concentration, and never dared to be lazy again. Later he finally became a great poet in Chinese history.

The idiom "an iron pestle grinds into a needle" is a metaphor that as long as you work hard for a long time, you can succeed in anything no matter how difficult it is. This idiom is also said to be "As long as you work hard enough, an iron pestle can be ground into a needle."

Li Bai is known as the "Poetry Immortal" and is a great and talented poet. However, even such a talented person needs to study hard, so don't ordinary people need to work harder? Therefore, don't ordinary people need to work harder? Students, no matter what our talents and talents are, we should study hard; no matter what we want, we should persevere, only in this way can we succeed! Come on!!

2. Wang Gang:

Wang Gang was very naughty when he was very young, and his father beat him to death. At that time, such a child actually wrote a letter to Mao Zedong. When he himself did not expect Chairman Mao to reply to him, he received a letter from the central government. After encouragement, Wang Gang would not be the outstanding person he is today.

I wrote it before. Wang Gang was very smart when he was a child, but he was also very naughty. He was too playful every day and did not pay attention to the lectures. However, he still ranked first in the exam. This made his class teacher very angry. He did not need other children to play with him. He said that he was a bad element and a bad leader. Despite the other children, he still studied well. As a result, everyone ignored Wang Gang. Wang Gang was very depressed. He felt that only Chairman Mao could understand him, so he wrote a letter to Chairman Mao. As a result, he actually received a reply (ghostwritten by Secretary Mao Zedong). In the letter, Chairman Mao encouraged him to study hard, listen to the teacher's words, and contribute to the four modernizations when he grows up. From then on, Wang Gang became a well-behaved boy. hehe.
