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 night!"
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。

Explaining to a friend how to find his apartment, he said, "Come up to the fifth floor and ring the doorbell with your elbow. When the door open, push with your foot." "Why use my elbow and foot?" "Well, gosh," was the reply, "You're not coming empty-handed, are you?" 一個聲名狼藉的小氣鬼終於決定要請一次客了。他在向一個朋友解釋怎麼找到他家時說：「你上到五樓，用你的胳膊肘按門鈴。門開了後，再用你的腳把門推開。」 「為什麼我要用我的肘和腳呢？」 「天哪！」 吝嗇鬼回答，「你總不會空著手來吧？」Old Peter liked fishing．Whenever he had any free time he drove into the countryside，found a good place to fish，and spent a few hours fishing．The problem was that most of the best places to fish were on private land，and Peter often had to pull his rod out of the water quickly and run off with it when the owner of the land came along． One day he was sitting by a river that ran through a rich man's property when he fell asleep． He was awakened by a voice saying，「You'll never catch anything using that t．」 Peter looked up and saw a man standing behind him． 「What do you mean？」Peter said．「There's nothing wrong with this t．I always use it．I've caught thirty fish with it today already．」 「How interesting！」 the man said．「Do you know who I am ？」 Peter shook his head． 「I'm the owner of this land．」 Peter thought very quickly． 「Do you know who I am ？」he asked． The man shook his head． 「I'm the biggest liar in the country，」Peter told him． And with these words he pulled his line out of the water and ran off as fast as he could． 老彼得喜歡釣魚。每當他有他駕駛入鄉下的所有空閑時間，發現合適場所釣魚，並且花費了幾個小時釣魚。問題是大多最佳的地方對魚在私有土地，並且彼得必須從水裡面迅速經常拉他的標尺和逃跑與它，當土地的所有者到來了。 一天他由通過富人的物產跑的河坐，當他睡著了。 他由聲音說法喚醒， 「您使用那個誘餌未曾將捉住任何東西」。 彼得查找並且看見一個人站立在他之後。 「您是什麼意思？」彼得說。「這個誘餌沒有錯。我總使用它。我今天捉住了三十條魚與它已經」。 「怎麼感興趣!」 人說。「您知道誰我是？」 彼得搖了他的頭。 「我是這土地所有者」。 彼得非常迅速認為。 「您是否知道誰我是？」他要求。 人搖了他的頭。 「我是最大的說謊者在國家」，彼得告訴了他。 並且以這些詞他拉扯了他的線在水外面和一樣快速地逃跑，象他可能 A Good-Bye Gift When Michael Ma died,his three best friends went to his funeral. They stood for a moment,looking down into the grave of their friend. "He was a good friend,"the first person said."He was generous and kind.Let's give him some money to use in heaven ." The other two friends agreed.They thought this was a good idea. The first friend took his wallet out of his pocket,opened it and took out a $100 bill.Then he threw it into the grave. The second friend did not want the other two to think he was stingy,so he also took out his wallet. "You're right,"he said."He always helped his friends.He deserves to have everything he needs in his next life." And with these words,he also threw hundred dollar bill into the grave. The third man looked at the other two,and thought carefully for several minutes.He did not want them to think he was stingy ,but he really did hate spending money. Then he took out his checkbook and wrote a check for thre hundred dollars.He then threw the check into the grave. "I haven't got any change,"he said ,"but that check is for three hundred dollars,so I've given the same as you." 當Michael Ma 死時，他的3個最好的朋友參加了他的葬禮。 他們站著看了他們的朋友的棺材一會兒。「他是一個好朋友，」第一個人說道，「他是如此地慷慨如此地善良，我們給他一些錢讓他在天堂用吧。」 另外兩個朋友同意了，他們覺得這是個好主意。 第一個人從他的口袋裡掏出了錢包，打開拿了100美元，扔進了棺材。 第2個朋友不希望別人說他小氣，便也打開了錢包。 「你們做得對，」他說，「他經常幫助朋友。他應該在來生得到他所需要的一切。」說者，他也拿了100美元放進了棺材。 第3個朋友看著他們兩個，沉思了一會兒。他不希望別人說他吝嗇，但他實在是很討厭花錢。 然後他拿出了他的支票簿，寫了一張300美元的支票，丟進了棺材裡。「我沒有換衣服，但這是一張價值300美元的支票，所以我給的是一樣的
