凿壁偷光的故事英文版

In the Han Dynasty, there was a man named Kuang Heng who was diligent and studious.

The family is very poor, so he must work during the day and study at night.

But they can't afford candles. When it gets dark, they can't read books. At night, his neighbor's house lights candles to make it bright.

Kuang Heng quietly cut a small hole in the wall, and the candle light came through. With this faint light, I began to read books hungrily, and gradually finished reading all the books in my home.

汉朝时，有一人叫匡衡，勤奋好学。

家里很穷，白天必须干活，晚上他才能读书。

但又买不起蜡烛，天一黑，就无法看书了，他的邻居家一到晚上屋子都点起蜡烛把屋子照得通亮。

匡衡悄悄地在墙上凿了个小洞，烛光透过来了。借着这微弱的光线，如饥似渴地读起书来，渐渐地把家中的书全都读完了。
