In spring, silkworms will weave until they die, and every night, candles will dry the wick. Teachers are like burning candles, illuminating students' hearts with the light of knowledge until the end of their lives. -Mao Zedong's story of praising virtue.
As a great leader of New China, Mao Zedong never forgot the story of his mentor. More importantly, he left us a beautiful story and set an example. We should use our own practical actions to write the sequel to history, so as to be worthy of our hard-trained teachers and our great times.
Mao Zedong is a great leader of China people, but he always respects his teachers. 1959, Mao Zedong returned to Shaoshan, his hometown after 32 years' absence, and invited the old people in Shaoshan to dinner. Mao Zedong personally gave the teacher to the chief, and made a toast to him, expressing his respect for the teacher.
Mao Zedong listened to Mr. Xu Teli's class when he was young. When Xu Teli celebrated his 60th birthday, he specially wrote to congratulate Lao Xu. The letter said: "You were my husband 20 years ago, you are still my husband now, and you will be my husband in the future."

Modesty and Politeness —— The Third Traditional virtue story in China
China is called "the state of etiquette". As a specific behavior, "courtesy" refers to the civilized behavior when people treat people, which is now called politeness. The essence of politeness is to show respect and friendliness to others. This psychological need is beyond the times and eternal. However, if a person only knows the form of politeness and has no humility, then he will not really know politeness. Humility is also the expression of modesty and equality, and it is an important connotation of politeness. Modesty and courtesy contain the pride of our ancestors in natural culture, which is one of the fundamental characteristics of China people becoming China people.
A seven-year-old teacher
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius and his students traveled around the world to publicize their political opinions.
One day, they drove to the state of Jin. A child was playing with rubble tiles in the middle of the road, blocking their way. Confucius said, "You shouldn't play in the middle of the road and block our car!" " "The child pointed to the ground and said," Grandpa, what do you think this is? "At first glance, Confucius saw a city made of rubble bricks. The child added, "Do you think the city should give way to the car or the car should give way to the city?" Confucius was puzzled. Confucius thought the boy was very polite and asked, "What's your name? How old are you? The child said, "My name is Xiang Tuo, and I am 7 years old this year!" ! Confucius said to his students, "Xiang Tuo learned manners at the age of seven. He can be my teacher! "

As long as you make up your mind and work hard, no matter how difficult it is, you can succeed.
Li Bai, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, didn't like reading when he was a child. One day, while the teacher was not at home, he sneaked out to play.
He came to the river at the foot of the mountain and saw an old woman grinding an iron pestle on a stone. Li Bai was puzzled and asked, "Old woman, what are you doing grinding the iron pestle?"
The old woman said, "I am grinding the needle." Li Bai was surprised and asked, "Oh dear! As thick as a pestle, how can it be ground into a needle? " The old woman walked over and said, "As long as the pestle is always ground more and more finely every day, are you still afraid that it is not a needle?"
Li Bai, a clever man, was ashamed of himself after hearing this. He turned and ran back to the bookstore. From then on, he kept in mind the truth that "as long as the kung fu is deep, the iron pestle is ground into a needle", studied hard and finally became a famous great poet.
The Fifth Traditional virtue story in China —— Respect for the Old and Love for the Young
There is an old saying in China: "Filial piety is the first virtue". Filial piety is the first of all virtues. If a person does not know how to honor his parents, it is hard to imagine that he will love his motherland and people.

" We should not only honor our parents, but also respect other old people, care for young children, and create a simple folk custom of respecting the old and loving the young in the whole society. This is the responsibility of our students in the new era-
