What is given is a picture that clearly illustrates the spirit of lifelong learning. In front of a school gate, a young man asks an old man, “Why do you go to school at such an old age?” The old man replies with a smile, “If I stop studying, I may fall behind the times.” Finally, a few Chinese characters can be noted: it’s never too late to learn.

The contemporary society is characterized by fierce competition and an ever-increasing pace of development. As a result, we are facing more new challenges in living, working and learning than in the past. In this case, if we intend to achieve and enjoy long-term success, we would do well to develop a lifelong habit of learning. It can bring us the latest knowledge and skills, arouse our passion for a bright future, and help us adapt to a rapidly changing world.

As a senior preparing for the national entrance exams for postgraduate studies, I insist that we should keep moving forward. It is lifelong learning that enables us not to lag behind.
