In the eyes of the ancients, reading can settle down, and it can cultivate one's health and make a man noble. Therefore, there is a philosopher who says, "if you do not read a day, you will be covered with dirt."

Reading can control the country and the whole world. Reading can get information from all over the world, so that readers can know everything in the world without going out.

More practical, reading can gain fame and wealth, and can achieve wealth and ambition, and achieve an immortal career.

Reading can nourish spiritual life. Many ancient scholars have retired to the countryside after being tired of officialdom, and amused themselves with reading.

There are many stories about reading in ancient times.

For instance, during the Warring States period, Su Qin initially wanted to make a difference, but he ran around for several years without becoming an official.

Then the money ran out, and the clothes were worn out, so they had to go home.

The family saw him pulling his straw sandals and picking up his burdens and embarrassing him.

His parents scolded him fiercely; his wife sat on the loom and did not even look at him; he asked his sister-in-law to cook for him, and the sister-in-law ignored him and turned away.

Su Qin was greatly stimulated, and from then on he studied and studied the art of war, every day until late at night.

Sometimes when he was tired and sleepy in the middle of the night, he used his awl to tie his thigh. Although it was very painful, but the spirit came, he went on reading.

This is what people later call "cone thorn stock".

In this way, he used more than a year of Kung Fu, his knowledge is much richer than before.

In the 334 BC, he went to lobbying in six countries to publicize the idea of "joint and vertical", and he succeeded.

In the second year, the six countries established alliance.

Su Qin hung the seal of six countries and became a prominent figure.

Another famous story is "digging the wall and stealing the light".

In the Western Han Dynasty, there was a farmer's child called Kuang Heng.

When he was young, he wanted to read, but because he was poor, he had no money to go to school.

Later, he learned to read with a relative, and he had the ability to read books.

Kuang Heng could not afford to buy books, so he had to borrow books to read them.

He worked all day in the fields and spent some evenings to read books.

But Kuang Heng's family was so poor that he couldn't afford to buy the oil that lights up. One night, Kuang Heng was lying on the bed and read the books he had read during the day. Suddenly he saw a bright light coming from the east wall.

So Kuang Heng took a knife and dug up some of the walls, so that the light came through. He came to read the book through the light coming in.

Kuang Heng studied hard like this, and later became a very learned person, and he was the prime minister.

There are many stories like this, which illustrate the same principle that knowledge can change fate, believe in it and work hard, and realize the desire to change fate.

For Kuang Heng, a farmer's son, reading may be the only way to change his fate.

Some people often compare the modern college entrance examination with the ancient imperial examination. There are many differences between them. But one thing is the same. It provides an equal competition stage for different people, but competition depends on strength, and strength comes from reading.

In the past few years, many media reports on the resumption of the national college entrance examination have been made, and those interviewed have no doubt admitted that they provided the opportunity for the college entrance examination and the fate of knowledge change.

They all think that if they weren't for the college entrance examination, they might still be fishing in the fishing village, or they could be fitter in the factory.

Decades ago, the college entrance examination is a new starting point for knowledge to change their destiny and a milestone in their ambitions.

Since the resumption of the national college entrance examination in 1977, the fate of millions of people has changed due to reading and knowledge.

If you go to university, that is the watershed in straw sandals and leather shoes. This is a very clear sentence.

There is a middle school teacher, for example, wearing straw sandals or wearing leather shoes, all lies in the college entrance examination. If you wear shoes on exams, you will not be able to test barefoot.

In order to wear leather shoes, in order to have a pair of decent leather shoes, many people fought hard and finally realized their wishes.
