An example of reading pleasure.

Lu Xun was awarded a gold medal by Nanjing Jiangnan Naval Academy for his excellent examination results. However, he didn't show off the medal, but sold it on Gulou Street, and used the money to buy some beloved books and a bunch of peppers.

Whenever he reads a book in the dead of night, and it is cold and sleepy, he picks up a pepper, divides it into several pieces and chews it with his mouth. He chewed until his forehead sweated and his eyes wept. When his mouth was sobbing, he picked up a book to read.

2. Cao Yu studied it.

During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Cao Yu taught at Jiang 'an National Theatre in Sichuan. One summer, Cao Yu's family prepared a bathtub and hot bath for him. At this time, Cao Yu was reading a book and didn't want to take a bath. Finally, under the repeated urging of his family, he walked into the back room with a towel in one hand and a book in the other.

An hour passed and no one came out. There is sparse water in the room from time to time. After another hour, the situation is still the same. Cao Yu's family is very confused. When they pushed the door, Cao Yu sat in the bathtub, reading in one hand and knocking on the towel in the other.

3, cut the wall to borrow light

In the Western Han Dynasty, there was a farmer's child named Kuang Heng. He loved reading since he was a child, but because his family was poor, he had no money to go to school. Later, he learned to read from a relative before he could read.

Kuang Heng can't afford books, so he has to borrow books to read. However, books are so expensive that people who have books are reluctant to lend them to others. During the busy farming season, Kuang Heng worked as a short-term worker for wealthy families and asked them to lend him books for free.

A few years later, when Kuang Heng grew up, he worked in the fields all day and had little time to study. Kuang Heng was in a hurry, thinking: planting crops during the day and having no time to read, then Dolly can spend some time reading at night. However, Kuang Heng's family was too poor to buy oil for lighting, so Kuang Heng came up with this idea:

One night, Kuang Heng was lying in bed reciting the books he had read during the day. Behind me, I suddenly saw a light coming through the east wall. He suddenly stood up and walked to the wall. It turned out that the neighbor's light came through the cracks in the wall. So he picked up a knife and dug several cracks in the wall. In this way, the light coming through is also very big, so he gathered the light coming through and began to read.

This is how Kuang Heng loves reading, and regards reading as his only pleasure.

The benefits of reading:

Reading is a way for us to realize our dreams. Reading a good book can make us clear as water, broaden our horizons, enrich our experience and benefit our whole life. A person's life is a road, and the footprint of trudging on this road has become the trajectory of each of us. It is impossible to walk this road twice, but the scenery we see on the road of life is limited.

The book is a telescope, and the book is a bright lamp, which makes us see farther and clearer.

Reading can enrich and enrich people, make people knowledgeable, exercise people's minds and improve people's realm.

What you get every day is 24 hours, but one day brings wisdom and strength to diligent people, leaving only regrets to lazy people. -Lu Xun

Emphasize that reading must be wide and constantly expanded. Keep reading habits for life. Continuous progress, lifelong learning. You still have to study after graduating from college. You should constantly enrich yourself throughout your life. People want to improve the realm, and the realm is endless.

Life should be meaningful and valuable. Learn to learn independently. Reading is definitely different from not reading, and the realm will be different. Books or medicine, good reading can cure fools.
