D 跨学科 成语故事 "囊萤映雪" (2026·盐城建湖期末)
During the Jin Dynasty(265—420), there was a child named Che Yin. He was smart and loved to read. He grew up in a poor family and couldn't afford lamp oil to study at night.
One night he saw fireflies(萤火虫) outside his house and came up with an idea. He caught some fireflies in a cloth bag and hung the bag up as a lamp. It was said that he spent all of his summer nights reading like this.
Another child named Sun Kang who lived in the same time period also loved reading. One night during winter, Sun used up(用完) all of his lamp oil and couldn't study at night. When he suddenly woke up at midnight, he saw the thick snow reflecting (反射) the moonlight outside his house. His first thought was "Oh, I can use the reflected light to read." He took out his books and read, even though he was freezing cold.
These two boys grew up to become successful officials. People were touched by their hard-working spirit, and their stories inspire the Chinese idiom nangyingyingxue or "to read by the light of bagged fireflies or the reflected light of snow".
