Nowadays, the only way to improve students' physical strength in China is to promote sports. Although it has been more than 20 years since China abolished the Imperial Examination and set up schools, it is still too careless about sports equipment. Even a school doesn't even have a playground or a stadium, let alone a gym, swimming pool and other sports equipment. Since there is no "land" and sports opportunities are reduced, there are often smart and diligent students. Because of physical weakness, even if you don't suffer from lung disease, neurasthenia and other diseases, you will die young, but you will also be affected by lack of energy and reduced activities, and you will not be able to contribute what you have learned to society, and your future hopes and happiness will be destroyed. What a sad thing! Today's students are the backbone of tomorrow's society and the pillar of the country. How can such sick or quasi-sick students shoulder the heavy responsibility of the future society and country? How can it be compared with foreign martial arts students?
The improvement of physical strength does not happen overnight. Try to see that students from the East to the West, from primary school to university, are not in the process of exercise and edification every day. Therefore, all their young people are interested in sports. When they smell their prey, they will flock to them. It is not easy to form this habit. The foundation of a sound nation is established. This situation, when entering the country for the first time, will be mistaken for a kind of madness; It takes a long time to know its great influence on the country. This is what we should save.
Monkey-like agility
The meaning of "agile" is simply "fast". In this era of the twentieth century, one must be a "fast man". For example, like running a race or swimming, it is inevitable that people who are fast will fall behind. Our culture in China, two thousand years ago, has developed to a level not far from that of China today. At that time, the European continent was still in the barbarian era. And the United States is still in its infancy, not to mention. But what about today? European culture is splendid, we are far behind, and the United States is developing faster. The political and economic development of the United States of America has been "lagging behind" since the founding of the People's Republic of China 154. What is the reason? Of course, the United States has a good environment and is suitable for construction. The agility of Americans is also one of the biggest reasons for their rapid success. We tried to swim in American cities, but the speed of cars and trams was not counted. Even people walking on both sides of the street go straight ahead, rarely glance left and right, just as people in China often do. Visit their factory or office again, they are also busy with their own affairs. As for the students in the school, whether in the lecture hall, playground, library or laboratory, they are always agile and lively. So they can learn more and do more in a short time. Your grades will naturally improve in the future. Turning to the situation in our country, most people are slow to move, let alone; Even the students in the school are somewhat insensitive to reading and doing things. Therefore, students who graduated from junior high school can't speak Chinese freely; College graduates may not understand foreign books. This is not because they are slow-witted, but because habit becomes nature. So after leaving school, you still can't be nervous about doing things, or "take your time". What westerners can do in one day, China people can't do in two or three days. If the efficiency is so poor, the things achieved are naturally different.
As for this slow and agile movement, I say it is a habit, which was formed in youth, not without any factual basis. We can use the children of overseas Chinese and international students as proof: China children who grew up in Europe and America are agile and firm enough to compete with foreign children; The general international students, when they first arrive in a foreign country, always feel that they are not as fast as others in walking, doing things, reading and taking notes in class, and they are as miserable as others. However, after suffering too much in such an environment, naturally all actions will gradually become faster. Therefore, international students are always more agile than ordinary people after returning home. When they live a little longer in the boring environment of Pepsi-Cola in China, their old habit of slow fever may come back. Take dating or going to dinner as an example. People who have lived in Europe and America for several years return to China for the first time, and most of them are willing to be punctual and arrive on time. Later, I felt that I had arrived, and it was useless for others to come late. I might as well do as the Romans do, sitting waiting for someone and wasting precious time. However, everyone regrets the delay and inconvenience of this habit. We young people, in particular, should actively correct it.
Young man! Now is the new era of the twentieth century! The characteristic of this era is "fast". You see railways all over the continents, ships crossing the ocean, wires visible to the naked eye, invisible radio waves, planes that can explore the North and South poles across the Atlantic, trams and cars galloping on the ground of cities, trains and trams passing through underground tunnels, and all machines in factories, farms, offices and families. Which one is not set for the purpose of "fast"? In addition, all kinds of science are increasing inventions every day. Even if we can't invent it ourselves, we should catch up with it. It's all for nothing.
According to the theory of evolution, we humans evolved from apes. However, in this relatively comfortable environment, human actions gradually become dull, slightly inferior to monkeys, and China people are particularly lazy. With the earliest civilization qualification, what a pity it is to live far away now! Now, if we young people want to boost our morale in studying and doing things, we must learn "monkey-like agility" and catch up quickly!
(3) Camel spirit
Among China's 400 million compatriots, young students are probably second to none in their responsibilities! As far as China is concerned, we can almost say that all the things and responsibilities that can get rid of this status and save this fate will directly or indirectly fall on the shoulders of students.
The first is academic responsibility: as a student, the first thing to do is to study. Simply put, reading is to increase personal knowledge and ability and prepare for being a useful person in society; From a more far-reaching point of view, it is necessary to study the theory intensively and make the most valuable contribution to society, the country and mankind. What a great responsibility it is! Readers should know that a nation or country should stand firm in the world on the basis of academics-and stand up proudly. Especially in this highly competitive twentieth century, we have to rely on academics. Therefore, no country is academically prosperous; On the contrary, no nation is academically naive and ignorant. Germany is a good example: Germans were very resistant to the group during the European War, and their ability was already amazing; After the great defeat, it regained its place among the first-class countries in less than ten years. Isn't this due to their superb scientific level and strong construction ability? We China people have made great contributions in the world-such as inventing the compass, printing, gunpowder and so on-so although our national strength is not enough, we are still valued by people who talk about world culture. However, after the autocracy in 2000, academics fell behind. How many people in China have contributed to human happiness in modern academic circles? No wonder people look down on us gradually. In the future, if we want Sixue to get rid of the shame of being despised and restore our inherent glory, we must work hard academically, improve our scientific knowledge and make new contributions to the world. All these have to place their hopes on young students first.
The second is the responsibility to the country: today's China has been forced by neighboring countries and has become a sub-colony status; Internal political chaos, people's poverty and the country's future are too dangerous. If we want to get rid of the fetters of the great powers in the future, we must urgently cancel the unequal treaties. If we want to improve the current situation of the national economy so that the country can enjoy an independent, free and prosperous life, we must put domestic politics on the right track. When Fan Zhongyan was a scholar, he took the world as his own responsibility. Sure enough, where there is a will, there is a way. Nowadays, students don't take the country as their own responsibility! Third, the responsibility to society: good politics precedes good society, or good society precedes good politics? There is no need to argue about this question. In fact, the two influence each other, so students have the same responsibility to society and politics. Our society in China is very old, and most of the organizational forms and customs are out of date, which runs counter to the modern spirit and should be improved. This is also what I hope the students will work hard to implement. Because older people, sometimes even if they can see and want, rarely completely transform themselves because they have been immersed for too long. Therefore, young people have a great responsibility to improve the future social level. The responsibilities mentioned above are all on students, which is too heavy. However, China students born at this time can't avoid these responsibilities. What can we do if we don't learn the "camel spirit" to "a long way to go" In addition to the above three basic conditions, plus the virtues of "respecting beauty", "self-love" and "loving others", they can be called modern students.
