During the Western Han period, there was a great scholar named Kuang Heng. As a child, he loved reading, but his family was poor and could not afford candles, leaving him unable to read at night, which troubled him greatly.
One night, Kuang Heng noticed a faint light coming through a crack in the wall. Upon investigating, he realized that the candlelight from his neighbor's house was shining through. Seizing the opportunity, he devised a plan: he took a chisel and carved a small hole in the wall where the light came through. Instantly, the candlelight shone into his room, and he read carefully by it. From then on, every night, Kuang Heng relied on the hole in the wall to borrow his neighbor's light to study. Thanks to his diligence from a young age, he eventually became a highly knowledgeable scholar of the classics.
西汉时期，有一位大学问家名叫匡衡。他小时候非常喜欢读书，但家境贫寒，买不起蜡烛，每到晚上便无法阅读，这让他十分苦恼。
一天晚上，匡衡无意中发现自家墙壁似乎有些亮光。他起身查看，原来是墙壁出现裂缝，邻居家的烛光透了过来。匡衡见状，立即想出了一个办法：找来一把凿子，在墙壁裂缝处凿出一个小孔。顿时，烛光射入，他便借着这道光认真读书。从此，每晚匡衡都依靠墙壁上的孔，借邻居的烛光读书。因自幼勤奋好学，匡衡后来成为学识渊博的经学大家。
