You can't despise reciting.

Reciting is an important learning method. China has always had the theory of "a man of insight, a man of insight".

In order to recite an article, Mr. Lu Xun not only read aloud, but also copied it by hand to deepen his impression.

Life is only three days.

When students on the island of Hawaii in the United States attend classes, they always recite a prayer first: a person's life is only three days: yesterday, today and tomorrow. Yesterday has passed and will never come back. I was with you today, but it passed quickly. Tomorrow will come and die. Come on, life is only three days.

The song of tomorrow and the song of today

In the Ming Dynasty, Qian Fu wrote a Song of Tomorrow, which read: Tomorrow follows tomorrow, and there are several tomorrows! Waiting for tomorrow, everything will be wasted. The world is tired of tomorrow, and tomorrow will be endless. In the morning, the water flows east, and now it grows in the west. What will tomorrow be like in a hundred years? Please listen to my song tomorrow.

In the Ming Dynasty, Wen Jia wrote another Song of Today, which read: Today is today, and today is so rare! If you don't do it today, when will it happen? Today is a hundred years, and today is not a pity. If we wait until the Ming dynasty, there will be something in the Ming dynasty. Say "Today's Poetry" for you, and try to start today.

Walking "blackboard"

One night, physicist Ampere was walking in the street.

However, the "blackboard" suddenly moved, and before ampere finished his calculus problem, he unconsciously followed the "blackboard" to calculate it. The "blackboard" walked faster and faster, and Ampere felt that he could not catch up. At this time, he saw people in the street laughing at him. He found that the moving "blackboard" turned out to be the tail of a black carriage.

Newton forgot to eat.

Newton, a great British physicist, once invited a friend to dinner at home. The food was ready, but before his friend arrived, he went into the laboratory and concentrated on the experiment. When my friend came, I couldn't find Newton. Because he was in a hurry to go to work, he finished his meal alone, put the leftover chicken bones in the box and left. In the evening, Newton finished his experiment and prepared to eat. But when he saw the chicken bones in the box, he showed an epiphany and said with a smile, "I thought I hadn't eaten yet, but I have already eaten."

The article is ever-changing and tireless.

Marx would rather burn his manuscript than leave his unprocessed works. Flaubert was a French critical realist writer in the19th century. One day, Mo Bosang went to Flaubert for consultation with a new book. He was puzzled to see that the manuscript on Flaubert's desk had only one line on each page, and the other nine lines were blank. Flaubert smiled and said, "This is my habit. I only wrote one line on ten lines of manuscript paper, and the other nine lines were reserved for revision. "

Standing outside the door on a snowy day, waiting for Cheng Yi (Cheng Yi) to wake up and teach-respect the teacher and emphasize the road.

Imitate others and lose your personality.

There was a man in the state of Yan who heard that people in Zhao had good walking posture and came to Handan, the capital of Zhao, to learn to walk.

Liang Qichao's reading method

First, reading should be divided into special reading and exposition. On the one hand, we should develop the habit of reading carefully, on the other hand, we should develop the habit of reading quickly. If you don't know the details, you will get nothing, which is equivalent to reading in vain. If you don't have quick eyes, you won't have enough time to get information. Secondly, some books should be read carefully, such as valuable literary works and useful aphorisms. Third, take reading notes. Because a good memory is not as good as a bad writing.

Pay attention to discussion

Scholars in ancient China attached great importance to discussing knowledge with their close friends. Tao Yuanming's poem "Migration" contains the words "Appreciate strange writing, dispel doubts and doubts", and Zhang Ji's poem "Sacrifice to Retreat" also talks about the scene when he and Han Yu were together, "Poor things in ancient and modern times, overall consideration". Sun Sheng and Yin Jie in Jin Dynasty once forgot to eat and sleep in order to discuss a problem, so that "there are four people who eat cold and warm".

Newton's Thoughts on Apple Landing

One day, when Newton was walking, a ripe apple fell from the tree and hit him right on the head. This very common thing caused Newton to think deeply. He thought: Why do apples have to fall to the ground? Why not fly to the sky and other places? He speculated that there is gravity in the earth's core, and this gravity exists for any substance. Through research, he put forward a formula to calculate the magnitude of gravity and discovered the "law of universal gravitation".

Yang Zhen's "Four Knowledge" shamed Wang Mi.

According to Ye Fan's Book of the Later Han Dynasty, Yang Zhen moved from Jingzhou to Donglai Prefecture and passed Changyi when he took office.

In order to repay the kindness of the recommender, Wang Mi visited Yang Zhen at the posthouse in the evening and presented ten gold medals. Yang Zhen repeatedly waved his hand and refused. Wang Mi thought that he was afraid of being seen and damaged his reputation, so he said, "Ignorance at dusk." Yang Zhen said angrily, "Heaven knows the earth, you know me, what is ignorance?" Throwing gold to Wang Mi, Wang Mi retreated in shame.

654.38+0 billion and 654.38+0 billion

Once I read a newspaper, I was deeply impressed by two figures: First, there are1000000 children out of school in China every year; First, China spends 654.38+000 billion on public funds for eating, drinking and traveling. If it is shared equally among/kloc-0.0 million children, each child will get an astronomical figure. But they really can't afford tuition and fees of several hundred dollars a year. There are so many "black sheep" with big mouths, and dozens of children's tuition fees are eaten up in one meal, which makes people "worry more".

Wisdom story

1, apples by the river

An old monk, surrounded by a group of devout disciples. On this day, he told his disciples to go to Nanshan to get a load of firewood. The disciples hurried to the river on the hillside, and everyone was dumbfounded. I saw the flood rushing down from the mountain, and I couldn't cross the river to collect firewood in any case. When he came back in vain, his disciples were a little depressed, but a young monk was calm with his master. When the master asked him why, the young monk took an apple out of his arms and handed it to the master, saying that he could not cross the river to collect firewood. When he saw an apple tree by the river, I picked the only apple on it. Later, the young monk became a descendant of the master.

There are endless roads and rivers in the world. It is also a kind of wisdom to turn around if you can't cross the river. But true wisdom must do one thing by the river: fly the kite of thought and pick an "apple". Throughout ancient and modern times, people who hold such a belief in life have finally achieved a breakthrough and transcendence in life.

On this day, a group of four people came to the bridge, one blind, one deaf and two healthy people. The iron chain bridge must be climbed, and there is no turning back. Four people, one by one, grabbed the chain and marched in the air. Blind people cross the bridge, deaf people cross the bridge, one with bright ears crosses the bridge, and another person falls off the iron chain bridge and dies. Aren't people with hearing and sight worse than the blind and deaf? The blind man said, "My eyes can't see. The Gao Qiao Bridge in Fushan is very dangerous, so I can climb the cable calmly. " The deaf said, "I can't hear with my ears, and I can't smell the roar under my feet, so my fear is relatively reduced." The healthy person who crossed the bridge said, "I crossed the bridge." What does dangerous peak have to do with me? What does rapids have to do with me? As long as you pay attention to stability, it is enough. "

Many times, success is like climbing a chain bridge. The reason for failure is not because of weak strength, not because of low IQ, but because of the momentum around. Don't be moved by external things, focus on your goals, no matter the wind or the curtain, as long as your heart doesn't move.
