Persistent living, persistent pursuit, in today's era, there are also people who move us. Cheng Youbao, an ordinary farmer in Jiangsu. In the early 1980s, I failed in the college entrance examination several times in a row, so I had to go home to farm. Since 199 1 year, in order to realize my dream for many years, I began to take the higher education self-study exam. At the end of 1994, I obtained the graduation certificate of English major of Nanjing Normal University, and passed ten courses of self-taught examination for English majors in 1995. In 200 1 year, Cheng Youbao, who failed in the postgraduate entrance examination for four times and reached the age of 40, finally received the postgraduate admission notice from the School of Humanities of Yunnan University.

Twenty years of persistent infatuation and persistent pursuit, 40-year-old Cheng Youbao has gone through a bumpy and tragic road of self-examination. Because he was in the countryside, he couldn't let go, and was regarded as a monster by the people around him. His wife also left him because of his "doing nothing". His meager income is spent on books and he has no money to pay the electricity bill. There is no electricity in his house, so he can only light oil lamps when reading at night. On TV, when the interview lens is switched to his darkroom and the lights are like beans, that scene will make every reader admire and admire-Cheng Youbao has created a real miracle. It is such a tragic hero that after he was admitted to the graduate school, he was not completely respected and applauded. During that time, TV and radio stations did a lot of talk shows on this topic. Many people didn't understand and even accused him of this practice, saying that he was a contemporary golden model and openly assumed his life path with the example of "all roads lead to Rome, and all walks of life are champions"-if he devoted himself to agriculture, he would have been a well-off family. When the reporter interviewed him on this topic, Cheng Youbao said that he is not a maverick, but has a colorful world in his heart and a dream that will not be crushed by life. For this dream, life is worth fighting for.

How well this is said. Think about our childhood dreams, our youthful pursuits and our present situation. Many people lost their dreams and morale. They are content with the status quo and complain about others in their complaints, which are often attributed to impetuous times and complicated interpersonal relationships. But perhaps the most fundamental problem is the lack of persistence in pursuing dreams and fighting for life, and the lack of tenacity and perseverance of 59-year-old Lao Jinshi and Cheng Youbao.

Nearly sixty-year-old people jumped into the imperial examination, and an ordinary farmer grew up to be a graduate student in colleges and universities, which brought us not only shock and emotion, but also a persistent way of life. "If you aim at a high mountain, there will be a deep pool under the micro-turbulence." Perseverance conveys hope and strength!
