当我进入邻居家时，看见一个瘦小的女孩正在专心致志地学习。后来得知她虽然很勤奋，但是去年高考不幸落榜。但她毫不放弃，继续努力学习，准备再考。

每天她都在灯下学到深夜。这明亮的灯光成了她的伴侣，也成了她刻苦努力的见证人。几天后，我又一次与她相遇了。

她告诉我即便考不上大学，她也不放弃学习。她的话发人深思，让我看到了光明，真正明白了“有志者，事竟成”这句谚语的含义。Iusuallycomehomelateatmidnight.EverynightIpassbymyneighbor’swindowIcanseethebrightlightthroughit.OneTuesdaynightIcamehomelateasusual.WhenIunlockedthedoorIfoundanotesaying“Oneofyourfriendshasleftyousomethingimportantinmyhouse.Yourneighbor.”SincethelightwasonIwenttoknockatthedoor.EnteringthehouseIfoundayoungladyofeighteenorsoabsorbedinherstudy.IlearntfromhermotherthatshefailedintheCollegeEntranceExaminationlastyear.Evensoshenevergaveupandwasencouragedtogoonstudyinghardandtryagain.Thebrightlightwasnotonlyacompaniontoherbutalsoaproofofherdiligence.AfewdayslaterImetheragain.Wehadatalkforawhileandshetoldmethatevenifshecouldn’tsucceedshewouldn’tgiveupstudying.WhenshesaidthisIsawthatbrightlightandbegantounderstandthesaying“Wherethereisawillthereisaway.”我通常午夜时分才回家。

每晚从邻居家经过，都会看见那透过窗户的明亮灯光。一个星期二的晚上，我像平时一样回来很晚。开门时看见一张纸条上写着：“你的一位朋友将一些重要的东西放在我家了。

你的邻居。”看见灯还亮着，我就去敲门。进到房里，我看见一位十八岁左右的姑娘正在专心致志地学习。

从她母亲那儿，我得知她去年高考落榜了。但她并不放弃，仍旧努力学习，准备再试一次。这明亮的灯光不仅是她的伴侣，而且是她勤奋的证明。
