Fang Zhongyong is a character in the text we have studied. He never read a book when he was a child, but he could write very beautiful words, as if he were born with everything. He was very happy when his father knew his talent. I often take him everywhere to write poems, and then many people think that he is particularly powerful and invite them to dinner.
It's a pity that this prodigy will grow up, but his father didn't let him study, which completely wasted his good talent. In the end, it will be like ordinary people. My history proves that Wang Anshi saw this prodigy with his own eyes, and he also pitied his talent with 10. If he can study hard, he will be a good citizen and a good official, which will be passed down through the ages. It's a pity that such a good talent was too late for others to envy, but he wasted it.
Bai Juyi is also very powerful. He was especially good at writing poems when he was a child, and now we all know his poems. For example, the endless grass on the plain, with the coming and going of each season, has never been completely swallowed up by wildfire, and they have grown taller in the spring breeze. He wrote this when he was very young. When he was visiting Beijing, he wanted to ask an adult for advice. Adults laughed at him when they saw the name, but they were amazed when they heard his poems. Bai Juyi still works very hard and cherishes his talents, so his poems are very famous and left a strong mark in history.
There are even prodigies like them in the history of China, but some people cherish their talents, while others completely waste them. No matter how talented a person is, he should study hard, otherwise he will be left behind if he stops forever.
