焚膏繼晷(He lit a candle at night to continue
his studies)
中國的唐王朝時代，有一位著名的官員，他也是一個著名的文學家。他的名字是(韓愈)。
他非常正直。他寫過一篇文章。
這篇文章的內容是一個儒家老師與他的學生們的對談。
在首都的儒家學院，一個資深的老師在課堂上他對所有的學生分享他的看法，他鼓勵這些學生們必須主動並且勤奮的學習。
有一個學生舉手發問。
這個學生為笑著說。
我不認同你的觀點，我有不同的看法。
老師說。
請說你的觀點。
學生說。
為了證明我的觀點，我舉一個例子，這個例子就是你。
老師表示驚訝。
學生說。
因為我們都很尊敬你，所以我們多年來都持續地跟您學習。
你隔一段時間就重複閱讀那些經典的書籍，你為了拓展自已的知識領域所以你會看各種不同觀點的書。
你對於歷史書籍特別有研究，你整理出這些歷史書中的重點。
你深入研究一本書的作者的思考脈絡，所以你可以清楚掌握這個作者想要表達的意思。
你的閱讀與學習種類非常的廣泛，你不會只專研那些深奧的學問，你也很看重生活中的智慧。
你常常在晚上點起蠟燭繼續念書，你對知識的渴求我們沒有人比得上。
我們向你學習的這幾年來，你的學習態度讓我們都非常的敬佩，你是勤奮學習的最佳典範。
這句成語的意思是將一個人點上蠟燭在晚上繼續念書。
這句成語被用來形容形容一個人很勤奮地工作或讀書。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你會重複閱讀那些經典的書籍嗎?你是否會定期的看一些不同領域的書呢?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
