One day, when he came home, his mother, who was weaving, asked him, "Why did you leave school so early?" He had to admit playing truant. Mother said angrily, "I worked hard to weave things for you to learn, but you played truant." It's so hopeless! " "The little hurriedly knelt down for his mother.

Mother picked up scissors and cut the unfinished cloth at once, saying, "What's the use of cutting the cloth like this if you don't study hard!" " "

He has a wide range of interests, often dabbles in natural science books, and writes well. One day, Zhang Heng read four poems from a collection of poems, describing the changes of the Big Dipper in the evening of each season: "bucket handle refers to the east, and the world is spring; Guide to barrel handle, it's summer in the world; Bucket handle refers to the west, and the world is autumn; Bucket handle refers to the north, and it is winter in the world. " He thinks it's interesting. The stars twinkle in the sky, some like dustpans, some like buckets, some like dogs, and some like bears. What are their operating rules? This is simply wonderful. So Zhang Heng drew a sky map according to the content of the poem and referring to other books. Every night, as long as there are no clouds, he silently observes the night sky in front of the star map. How many mysteries are there in the vast starry sky? He observes, records and thinks. His mind is full of all kinds of questions and colorful fantasies. Later, he finally confirmed that the descriptions in those four poems were not accurate enough. In fact, the barrel handle refers to the northeast in early spring and the southeast in late spring.

One day, Kuang Heng summoned up his courage and said to his neighbor, "I want to study at night, but I can't afford candles. Can I borrow an inch of your house? " Neighbors have always looked down on people who are poorer than their family, so they said viciously and sarcastically, "Since you are too poor to buy candles, what books are you reading?" Kuang Heng was very angry, but he decided to read the book well.

When Kuang Heng came home, he quietly cut a small hole in the wall, through which the neighbor's candlelight came in. With this faint light, he eagerly began to read books and gradually finished reading all the books at home.

After reading these books, Kuang Heng felt that his knowledge was far from enough, and his desire to continue reading more books was even more urgent.

There is a big family nearby with many books. One day, Kuang Heng rolled up his bedding and appeared in front of a big house. He said to his host, "please take me in, and I will work for you at home for free." Just let me read all your books. " The host was moved by his spirit and agreed to his request to borrow books.
