The Book of Rites
Although there is/delicious (yáo), I don't know/its purpose; Although there is a/supreme way to learn, I don't know/its goodness. So/learn/then know the deficiency, teach/then know the difficulty. Not knowing enough, and then/can be self-defeating; Make progress despite difficulties, and then/strive for self-improvement (all m \u ng). Therefore: teaching/learning from each other (zhǎng) is also. "Dui (yuè) Destiny" says: "Learn (xiào)/ learn (xué) half." What does it/this mean? [ 1]

Even if there is something delicious, you don't know its sweetness if you don't eat it; Even if there is the best truth, you don't know its benefits if you don't learn it. This is why you have to learn to know the shortcomings, and you have to teach people to know what you don't understand. Only by knowing your own shortcomings can you reflect on yourself; Only by knowing what you can't understand can you encourage yourself. Therefore, teaching and learning promote each other, and teaching others can also increase their own knowledge. Redemption says, "Teaching is half learning." That's probably what I said.
2. Translate the knowledge of the following ancient scholars. If you don't advance, you will retreat.
People learn ⒂, if they don't advance, they will fall back. They are ignorant and ignorant, and it is difficult to accomplish anything. If you stay on one side for a long time, you will get used to dyeing without knowing it. Unfortunately, in remote areas, there is no money for horses and chariots. It is better to be knowledgeable, interrogate the ancients and collect them in order to find out where their right and wrong are. Nine times out of ten, several attending doctors can handle it five or six times. If you don't go out to study, you are a person facing the wall (1 1). Although you are a child and a saint of Yuan Xian (12), you can never help the world (13). Confucius said, "In a city with ten rooms, there must be faithful people, unlike those who are eager to learn in autumn." [14] For the sake of Confucius, I still need to learn, but today I don't care.

4. Translation of Classical Chinese "On Learning from People" A person strives for progress in learning, and if he cannot make progress, he will inevitably retreat.
Studying alone without friends (exchanging ideas with each other) is bound to be shallow and difficult to succeed; After living in a place for a long time, you will unconsciously get into some habits. Unfortunately, if you live in a backcountry and you don't have the fare for your horses and chariots, you should do extensive research, make detailed research, and discuss the right and wrong in combination with the ancients, so that you can get almost five or six tenths.
If you don't go out (learn from your friends) and study, you are an uneducated person. Even if you have talents like Zi Lamb and Yuan Xian, you can't benefit the society after all. Confucius said, "In ten small villages, there must be people as faithful as Kong Qiu, but not as eager to learn as Kong Qiu."
5. Classical Chinese translation of A Book with Friends
People are either making progress every day or regressing every day. If you don't have a study partner, your point of view will be one-sided and simple, and it will be very difficult to learn. If you stay in an environment for a long time, you will unconsciously develop some habits. If you are unfortunate enough to be in the backcountry and have no car fare, you should still hunt for knowledge extensively and study it carefully.
Only by combining (one's own thoughts) with those of the ancients can we know whether the study is correct or not, and we can master almost five or six tenths of the knowledge. If you don't go to school or study, you won't understand knowledge. Even if you have a son and a fairy, it's useless to the country.
Confucius said, "Even in a small village with only ten families, there must be honest people like me, but they are not as studious as me." Even a saint like Confucius should study hard. Shouldn't people today use this to encourage themselves?

Make an appreciative comment
After the failure of the anti-Qing Dynasty, Gu crisscrossed the north and south, his eyes were wide open, and his understanding of life was more solid and profound. In view of the neo-Confucianism advocated by intellectuals at that time, a book by a friend entitled "Learning for Learning's sake" expressed a unique view of learning.
This paper advocates the trinity of "extensive, profound and practical", which is dialectical, profound, practical and flexible. This not only serves as a warning to scholars at that time, but also has extremely important enlightenment for modern people to create a scholarly life and a learning society.
