To Pull up the Seedlings to Help Them Grow
Once upon a time, an old farmer planted a plot of rice. Everyday he
went to the field to watch the seedlings grow. He saw the young shoots
break through the soil and grow taller each day. But still, he thought
they were growing too slowly. He got impatient with the young plants.
"How could the plants grow faster?" He tossed in bed ring the night and
could not sleep. Suddenly he hit upon an idea. He had an idea not wait
for daybreak. He jumped out of the bed and dashed to the field. By the
moonlight, he began working on the rice seedlings. One by one, he pulled
up the young plants by half an inch. When he finished pulling, it was
already morning. Straightening his back, he said to himself, "What a
wonderful idea! Look, how much taller the plants have grown one nigt!"
With great satisfaction, he went back home. He told his son what he had
done in a triumphant tone. His son was shocked. Now the sun had risen.
The young man was heart-broken to see all the pulled-up young plants
dying.
People now use " Ba Miao Zhu Zhang" to describe the behavior of those
who are too eager to get something done only to make it worse. The idiom
is a bit like the English proverb "Haste makes waste" ------to spoil
things by excessive enthusiasm.
撥苗助長
從前，有個農夫，種了稻苗後，便希望能早早收成。每天他到稻田時，發覺那些稻
苗長得非常慢。
他等得不耐煩，心想：「怎麼樣才能使稻苗長得高，長很快呢?
想了又想，他終了想到一個「最佳方法」，就是將稻苗撥高幾分。
經過一番辛勞後，他滿意地扛鋤頭回家休息。心想：明天稻苗長得一定更高了。
隔天早晨．一早起身，他迫不及待地起去稻田看他的「成果」。
哪知，他跑到稻田時，卻看到所有的稻苗都枯萎了。
Although more of an investment guru than a management guru, Warren Buffett (born 1930) made his billions (and became the
second richest man in the world after Bill Gates) from the success of the companies held by his investment vehicle, Berkshire
Hathaway, a publicly quoted company. He has described the extent of his involvement in these companies as being limited to
the allocation of capital and people. 「Charles T. Munger, Berkshire Hathaway』s vice-chairman, and I really have only two
jobs,」 he once said (Charles T. Munger being his long-time closest associate). 「One is to attract and keep outstanding
managers to run our various operations. The other is capital allocation.」 That includes setting the compensation of the
chief executive.
Buffett is known as 「the Sage of Omaha」, after the town where he was born and where he has spent most of his life, and much
is made of his small-town homespun values. He likes to play the ukulele and he plays bridge (with Bill Gates, among others)
in his modest home in Omaha. His one conceit is a corporate jet, but that is second-hand and named 「The Indefensible」.
Buffett, however, is not really the small-town boy made good. His father, Howard Buffett, was a stockbroker who won a seat in
Congress when Warren was a boy, and the family moved to Washington, DC, for a while. Then Buffett went to the Wharton School
in Philadelphia, the top business school in the United States for finance and for those heading for the higher reaches of
Wall Street. He left before he completed his course, but finished his studies at New York』s almost equally prestigious
Columbia Business School. From there, in 1951, he started to make his living from investing on the stockmarket, and was
greatly influenced by Ben Graham, who wrote a classic book on investment, 「Security Analysis」 (1934), and had been his
tutor at Columbia.
Buffett famously avoided the high-tech sector ring the turn-of-the-century dotcom boom and bust, but in recent years he has
suffered from a high involvement with the less-than-stellar insurance instry. Berkshire Hathaway』s annual report contains
a closely observed 「letter to shareholders」, written by Buffett, which is a mixture of homespun wisdom and market savvy.
The company』s annual meeting is held in the Q-West centre in downtown Omaha and is attended by as many as 20,000 investors
from all over the world. 「We have embraced the 21st century,」 wrote Buffett in one of his letters, 「by entering such
cutting-edge instries as bricks, carpets, insulation and paint—try to control your excitement.」
In June 2006 he gave Berkshire Hathaway shares worth over $30 billion to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the biggest
single charitable donation in history.

A.
The world is not hungry , but it is thirsty . It seems strange that nearly 3/4 of the earth is covered with water while we say we are short of (短缺) water. Why? Because about 97% of water on the earth is sea water which we can't drink or use for watering plants directly (直接地) . Man can only drink and use the 3% - the water that comes from rivers and lakes. And we can't even use all of that, because some of it has been polluted (污染) .
Now more water is needed. The problem is: Can we avoid (避免) a serious water shortage later on? First, we should all learn how to save water. Secondly, we should find out the ways to reuse it . Scientists have always been making studies in the field. Today, in most large cities water is used only once and then runs to the sea or rivers . But it can be used again. Even if (即使) every large city reused its water, still there would not be enough. What could people turn to next?
The sea seems to have the best answer. There is a lot of water in the sea. All that needs to be done is to get the salt out of the sea water. This is expensive, but it's already used in many parts of the world. Scientists are trying to find a cheaper way of doing it. So you see, if we can find a way out, we'll be in no danger of drying up.
