揠苗助長 To Pull up the Seedlings to Help Them Grow
閱讀 : 次
Once upon a time, there was an old farmer who planted a plot of rice. After he planted the seedlings, every day he went to the field to watch the seedlings grow.
從前，有一個老農夫，他種了一塊田的稻谷。在他種下秧苗之后，每天他都到田里去看秧苗的生長。
He saw the young shoots break through the soil and grow taller each day, but still, he thought they were growing too slowly.
他看到這些秧苗破土而出，每天都長高了些，但他仍然認為它們生長得太慢了。
Eventually he got impatient with the young plants and suddenly he hit upon an idea that one by one, he pulled up the young plants by half an inch.
最終，他對這些幼苗失去了耐心，突然想到一個主意：一棵接一棵地，他把秧苗拔了半英寸。
The next early morning, the man couldn’t wait to check his “achievement”, but he was heart-broken to see all the pulled-up young plants dying.
第二天一大早，這人迫不及待地去稻田看他的“成果”，卻看到所有的秧苗都枯萎了，心都碎了。
