"Modesty makes people progress, while pride makes people lag behind." This famous saying contains rich philosophy, which always reminds us to always be modest and prudent, not arrogant and impetuous in the face of impressive achievements.

Only modest people can achieve better results in their careers. Because only after getting good grades, do not be arrogant and impetuous, analyze the reasons for your mistakes and sum up your experience, can you get better grades.

I remember that it was the test of Unit 3. The day before, the teacher told us, "Tomorrow's exam, let's go back and review." When I heard it, I didn't agree with it in my heart. Some time ago, my Chinese score was above 9. If I don't review this time, I will definitely do well in the exam! It is with this feeling of peace of mind that I came home.

The next day, I glanced at the test paper. Ha, it was quite simple. I did it with confidence. But when I read after class, I got stuck-what is the function of dashes? What is the function of ellipsis? I began to feel uneasy. The bell rang for the first class, and I was even more flustered. What should I do if I want to write a composition next class? I had to fill in an answer at random.

After the exam, I nervously asked my classmates, "What is the function of ellipsis? What is the function of ellipsis? " The classmate said, "The function of ellipsis is to enumerate ellipsis, and the function of dash is to explain. What's wrong? " After hearing the answer, I wilted like a frosted eggplant and said in dismay, "Nothing." I know, my 9 points will definitely be lost.

The next day, while we were having a Chinese class, the teacher asked us to read the text, and she came to hand out the test paper. The teacher suddenly came to my side and handed me the test paper, saying, "I didn't do very well this time." I was shocked, and the bright red 88.5 seemed to be laughing at me. I opened the back with trembling, and the piece I read after class was simply "full of river red". Sure enough, ellipsis and dash are wrong, and others are unsightly.

Zhu De has this modest attitude of leaving a gap for himself, so that he can constantly improve and perfect himself. No one is perfect, and no one can be truly perfect. Self-righteous behavior and attitude towards people will only make you retreat.

never think that you are in a state of saturation, so you will never make progress. Leave a little space and a gap for your own development, so that you can continuously learn new knowledge. Why not?

great people can learn with an open mind, not to mention us ordinary people? Isn't it just leaving a gap for yourself to take the strengths of others to make up for your own shortcomings? In every learning process, leave yourself room for progress. Over time, you can make greater progress. Modesty makes people progress, so we should leave a gap for ourselves and a little room for progress.
