Zhang Yan, whose real name is Tian Ru and whose real name is Mingxi, was born in a scholarly family in Taicang, Jiangsu Province in the 30th year of Ming Shenzong Wanli (1602). But he was born to a handmaid, so he was not valued by the Zongdang and was often humiliated. The hidden pain of this life experience inspired him to study hard since childhood.
Zhang Pu's talent is poor, and he often gets carried away. But Zhang Pu was not depressed when he was a child, but tried to overcome this shortcoming. Once, when he was studying, he came across an article about Dong Yu's reading story, which contained a sentence "Reading it a hundred times inspired him a lot". He thought: people can recite an article after reading it seven or eight times, but I can only recite it intermittently after reading it ten or twenty times. This difference is undeniable. However, no matter how stupid I am, I just have to recite it several times and make sure that I read every article a hundred times. Can't I do it? From then on, he began to do so. In ancient times, Mr. Xue asked students to recite the Four Books and Five Classics. These boring articles had to be read a hundred times, not to mention a seven-or eight-year-old child and an adult would feel bored. But Zhang Pu just took pains to persist. When he is thirsty, he scoops up a spoonful of cold water to drink; When he lost his voice, he lowered his voice a little ... After a period of hard study, he finally recited the article coherently, which made him extremely happy. But he was very familiar during the day, and he almost forgot when he woke up in the next n days, which made him very anxious. He is determined to find a more effective reading method.
One day in class, my husband asked Zhang Pu to recite the article. He recited the first few paragraphs well, and her husband was quite satisfied, but after a while, he couldn't recite it. Now he is anxious: he recited fluently in front of his father yesterday, so why can't he recite it today? The more anxious he was, the more puzzled he became, and finally he had to wait for her husband's beating. Seeing Zhang Pu standing there, Mr. Wang was very angry, so he took a ruler and slapped it on Zhang Pu's palm several times until Zhang Pu's tender little palm was red and swollen. After the fight, Mr. Yu Nu said, "Why don't you study hard?" I'll punish you for copying this article ten times and give it to me tomorrow! "
Zhang Pu was beaten, but he didn't resent Mr. Wang at all, only blaming himself for disappointing. When he got home and had a quick dinner, he put the paper under the lamp, studied ink, picked up a book and a pen. This article is very long, and he copied it carefully. When he finished, it was already midnight. When I arrived at school the next day, I handed the copied book to my husband. Unexpectedly, my husband asked him to recite yesterday's article again. This really worried Zhang Pu: after that, I just copied the book and didn't recite it specifically! But looking at Mr. Wang's stern appearance, he had to bite the bullet and recite it. Unexpectedly, a miracle happened: the last sentence just came out, and the next sentence jumped out. In a short time, the whole article was recited smoothly, without a pause or a typo. After listening to this, Mr. Wang couldn't help but praise again and again: "Good, good, that's what you should recite!" "
On the way home from school, Zhang Pu was still thinking about endorsement: "Strange, I didn't have anything to endorse yesterday. Why can I blurt it out today?" Is it because I copied it ten times? " It happened that Mr. Wang left a new endorsement transfer, and he decided to try again as he did yesterday. When he got home, he read the article first, and then began to copy, reading silently while copying. After copying, he read it aloud again and then copied it again. In this way, when he copied it for the seventh time, he felt that he not only understood the meaning of the article, but also recited it skillfully. He put down his pen and shouted happily, "Well, I finally found the knack of endorsement! It turns out that it is really' a good memory is not as good as a bad pen'! "
From then on, Zhang Pu must copy books by hand, burn them immediately after reading them, copy them again, read them again, burn them again, and so on. Later, he called this reading method "Seven Records" and named the reading room "Seven Records Study". After years of copying, the fingers holding the pen in his right hand have worn calluses. Mosquito bites in summer nights. When he reads, he puts a big urn under the desk and his feet in the urn. He often reads all night. In winter, the cold wind blows and the skin cracks. Zhang Pu warmed his hands with hot water and began to copy. One winter, he saw all the lights at night and took the light outside the window as dawn. He opened the door and saw that it was a heavy snow, and the snow was full of feet, but he didn't notice it. One day, his good friend Zhang Cai came to see him and saw him holding zongzi in his hand, dipped in ink, and his mouth was black without knowing it. Someone laughed at him for being pedantic, but he turned a deaf ear and studied as usual.
Zhang Pu, with a poor talent and a bad memory, finally gained profound knowledge and became a famous writer by virtue of his solid efforts in reading Seven Records. He wrote a book with quick thinking, fluent writing and profound content, which was well received. The Monument to the Five Tombs, which was selected as a Chinese textbook for middle schools, was written by Zhang Pu. At that time, many studious people heard Zhang Pu's name and often came to him for poems. Zhang Pu never drafts, but he often waves to the guests. Most of Zhang Pu's works are collected in Qi Lu Zhai Ji, a collection named after his study, which has been handed down to this day.
An Outstanding Physicist-Einstein
This man is Albert Einstein. This stupid student, who is regarded by the headmaster as "omnipotent", has become the founder and founder of modern physics through hard work, and is also the most outstanding physicist in modern times. Just as historians think that the second half of the17th century is Newton's era, people often think that the first half of the 20th century is Einstein's era. Because his theory of relativity initiated a new era of physics, almost the whole creative process of physics in the 20th century was guided by his great hands. People often say that Einstein was a genius. Of course he is a genius.
"Genius is ninety-nine percent perspiration and one percent inspiration." Einstein made great achievements mainly because he was infinitely diligent, because he met the requirements of the times, tirelessly explored and dared to innovate.
Einstein is not only infinitely diligent, but also a great scientist who is not bound by traditional ideas and dares to break through the forbidden zone and create new theories. He dares and is good at breaking superstition, emancipating his mind and exploring tirelessly. Of course, this first is the requirement of the times. The era in which Einstein lived, especially in the early 20th century, when his scientific thoughts were the most active and contributed, was an era in which old and new scientific thoughts alternated. At the moment when most people worship classical physics, a series of "challenges" follow. There are two dark clouds hanging in the calm and clear physical space: one is related to the blackbody radiation experiment and the other is related to the ether drift experiment. In addition, the discovery of radioactivity and electrons also strongly influenced the establishment of classical physics. It is against this background that Einstein appeared as a pioneer.
When Einstein was a teenager, he imagined himself as a man chasing the light. The concept of light led to special relativity. He also imagined: if the sling broke and an elevator fell into a deep valley, how would the passengers inside feel; This idea led to general relativity. The development of scientific theory is not to tear down old houses and build new ones. Just like climbing a mountain. Creating a new theory is like climbing a peak. The vision was broadened and the original hidden things were discovered. The original theory is still fresh in my mind, but it is very small and has become a small part of a broad vision. After he reached the peak of special relativity and general relativity, he was not satisfied and did not stop. He looked around, saw the magnificent scenery in the universe, patted the dust on his body and prepared to climb a new peak-unified field theory. This is the third stage of relativity. He hopes to unify the gravitational field and electromagnetic field, and hopes that this unified field can explain the problems that quantum mechanics can't explain.
Einstein was most opposed to such scientists, who "picked up a piece of wood, searched for the thinnest place, and drilled many holes where it was easy to drill holes". He aimed his "drill bit" at the thickest place in the unified field theory, hoping to unify electromagnetic force and gravity and give a unified explanation of material structure. He also knows that the unified field theory will not be completed by him alone. However, he believes that "in science, every road must be taken." Finding an impassable road is a great contribution to science. It is unfair that the history of science only writes about someone's success, explores the road before the winner, and finds that all the losers who are blocked by this road do not write. Let me do the thankless work to prove that this road is impassable. In his letter to Queen Elizabeth of Belgium, he wrote: "I was left to study difficult scientific problems, not to pity myself. The magic of that job will last until I stop breathing. "
Einstein wrote this way and did the same. Driven by divine curiosity, he bravely explored the universe deeply. He explored for decades until his last breath. On the last night of his life, there was a stack of unfinished manuscripts of Unified Field Theory beside the hospital bed, ready to wake Rosty Yi up and continue his calculus. Einstein's exploration of unified field theory is a portrayal of his indomitable enthusiasm and tenacious character of pursuing truth all his life.
Life is the pursuit of truth. As the German playwright Lessing said, "The pursuit of truth is more valuable than the possession of truth." Einstein pursued the truth through hard work all his life. His limited life is over. However, people built a temple in their hearts to commemorate him.
Tips: It can be seen that it is not terrible that a person is not smart. The terrible thing is to vent his anger first. As long as you are willing to work hard for your goal and cooperate with the right method, you will be rewarded by the goddess of success. Many people who succeed in their careers may not be able to show their sharp edge in their childhood and adolescence. On the contrary, they are too ordinary, even dull and stupid, and are often laughed at and ridiculed by people around them. If you lose heart because you are stupid and stop working hard, isn't that killing your potential talents and abilities in the cradle? In fact, everyone's talent is different, and everyone will find their own constellation in the long river of life. If you feel stupid, it's because you haven't found your own constellation yet. Just as Einstein was indifferent to other things, but he was particularly fond of physics and mathematics, when you find your own constellation, you will surely radiate extraordinary brilliance.
Zu Chongzhi, studious.
/kloc-One night more than 0/500 years ago, the stars flashed in the night sky. In a small village not far from Jiankang (now Nanjing), a group of children gathered in the field and looked up and counted the stars.
"This is the Cowherd."
"This is the Weaver Girl."
"Look, there are seven bright stars over there, like spoons scooping water. They are the Big Dipper. "
"The star not far from it is called Polaris."
……
Among this group of children, there is a man named Zu Chongzhi who later became a famous scientist.
Zu Chongzhi used to live in Jiankang, but grandpa took him to the countryside these days. With these rural children, Zu Chongzhi feels that he has gained a lot of knowledge. He is studious, curious and energetic. Looking at the stars, he suddenly remembered a question: "Why is there no moon today?"
"What day is it today?" A child asked him.
Zu Chongzhi quickly replied, "June 22nd."
"My father said that we 15 will meet at midnight on the 22nd."
Zu Chongzhi thought it was very interesting. On the way back to Jiankang by carriage, he asked his grandfather curiously, "Grandpa, why must the fifteenth moon of every month be round?"
Grandpa touched Xiao Chongzhi's head and said with a smile, "Son, I am engaged in construction engineering and don't know much about astronomy. Fortunately, there are many calendars at home. Let me find some for you. "
From then on, Zu Chongzhi became interested in astronomy. Every day, besides reading the Analects of Confucius and the Book of Filial Piety written by his father, he also reads gobbledygook with special care. Reading astronomy requires mathematical knowledge, so he also worked hard on mathematics. Not only that, he also collected all the records and documents about astronomical phenomena for research. ...
One day, he read Lingxian written by Zhang Heng, an astronomer in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and learned a lot. He said to his grandfather with bright eyes: "I see, on the evening of the 15th, the red sun set in the west, the bright moon rose, the sun was in the west, the moon was in the east, and the sun just shone on the moon. When we look at the moon from the ground, we see the half with light, so the moon is round ... "
Grandpa stroked his beard and said with surprise, "My little grandson, you have worked so hard since you were a child. You must be great when you grow up." As he spoke, he smiled cheerfully, and his eyes were full of infinite hope for his grandson.
In fact, as my grandfather predicted, Zu Chongzhi eventually became a famous astronomer. Not only that, his research on pi surpassed his predecessors and made a great contribution to the history of mathematics.
Zhou Enlai studies hard.
Nankai school is a well-known advanced school in China, and it is very strict with students. The academic burden in the school is moderate, and there are often exams. If you don't do well in the exam, you will be eliminated or repeat, and the tuition is very expensive.
Life is so hard and difficult, but he has been studying hard for the rise of China. He has been staying in school since he entered school, getting up and running every morning when the morning bell rings, and keeping the habit of exercising when he was in elementary school in Shenyang.
At first, his English foundation was poor. In order to overcome this difficulty, he spends all his spare time learning English every day. By the second year, his English was quite good. Later, I can read many original English books.
His Chinese performance is particularly good, and the school writes a composition every two weeks. Zhou Enlai's literary thinking is quick, and he writes a composition in one go. 19 16 He won the first place in the composition competition at school.
He is also good at math. He is one of the 48 players with the fastest written test. Get full marks in algebra. Mental arithmetic is faster than others' pen arithmetic.
Besides studying in class, he also read many books and newspapers after class, especially the civil rights newspaper and the people's livelihood newspaper run by Dr. Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary school, as well as the works of progressive thinkers at home and abroad at that time. Therefore, he is knowledgeable, broad-minded and active. On one occasion, he saw a printed Historical Records in the bookstore, so he bought it without paying the board fee and read it eagerly.
At this time, he had a clear understanding of the purpose of learning. In an essay entitled "The plan of life lies in diligence", he wrote: "People study all their lives, and youth is the biggest period. The foundation is based on this day and will develop in the future." He believes that studying hard now is to "serve the society, the country and the world" in the future. He is trying to prepare!
All the teachers and students admire him because of his hard work and excellent academic performance. The headmaster called him the best student in Nankai, and his classmates all said that he had achieved excellent results in all kinds of hardships. The following year, recommended by the teacher, the school made an exception and exempted his tuition and fees. Zhou Enlai became the only free student in the school.
In June, 2007, Zhou Enlai graduated first in his class. During his four years in Nankai school, he cultivated himself into an all-round young man who pursues progress and is excellent in character and learning.
The youngest son who can't get the inheritance right among his children often gets a good development through his own struggle. People who enjoy success rarely achieve great things. bacon

I don't know how many times a lazy mind is more dangerous than a lazy brother or sister. Moreover, it is more difficult to cure lazy psychology than lazy brother and sister. Because we are doing a job that we don't want to be unhappy, all parts of our bodies feel uneasy and bored. On the other hand, if you are interested in this kind of work and are happy, then your work efficiency is not only high, but also you feel comfortable both physically and mentally. Doctors call it laziness, which is caused by improper labor and mental depression. Dale Carnegie
One cannot live without life, and the content of life cannot make life meaningless. When you do something and say a word, no matter how big or small, you must make a plan first.
