Dear Jack：
How are you? I heard that you want to know the meaning of A fall into a pit, a gain in your wit. It can also means A man must become wise at his own experience. Can you understand me? Here are some examples.
First , I asked my classmate where is the post office, and I was cheated by him. So the next time, I will not believe him at all. Second ,I bought a MP3 on the internet last week, but to my surprise, the MP3 was just a toy when I saw the real thing, then I am very sad and I do not want to buy it at the same store the next time. If you have such experiences ,then you can say the saying: A fall into a pit, a gain in your wit. Or A man must become wise at his own experience.
Can you understand it now?if not ,write to me and I will give you more ideas.
Best wishes!
Yours
