??早年,有个农民正在地里耕耘,俄然看见一只兔子飞驰而过,撞在一棵大树上死了。农民毫不吃力就吃到了免肉,心里非常高兴。他想,“假定老是这样该多好啊!”所以,不再耕耘,每天服侍在那棵树旁,等候着能再捡到撞死在树上的兔子。他等呀等,等了一天又一天,地步也荒芜了,却再也没有等到第二只兔子。我们因而都讪笑他把偶尔当成必定。

Once upon a time,a farmer was plowing his field when he suddenly saw a rabbit darting past and crashing into a large tree and dying.The farmer had no trouble eating the rabbit and was overjoyed. He thought,"How wonderful it would be if it were always like this!"So he stopped plowing and waited by the tree every day,waiting for another rabbit to be picked up from the tree. He waited and waited,day after day.The field was deserted,but he never got a second rabbit. Therefore,people laughed at him for taking the chance for granted.

Once upon a time,there was a man who had a flock of sheep.One morning he was about to go out to herd the sheep when he noticed that one was missing. He looked closely and saw a hole in the sheepfold. Apparently,a wolf had gotten into the sheepfold during the night and taken the sheep. The neighbour advised him to fix the sheepfold,but he didn't listen. The next day,he found that the wolf had taken another sheep through the hole. Remembering his neighbour's words,he quickly closed the hole and repaired the sheepfold. After that,his sheep were never taken by wolves again. The story tells us that remedying problems in time can prevent
further losses.

拔苗滋长
早年有个农民嫌他种的禾苗长得慢,就到地把禾苗一株株地前进了一点。回家后他对家人说:“今日可真把我累坏了!但我总算让禾苗一会儿长高了。”他儿子到地里去一看,禾苗都已死光了。如今有些家长急于让孩子成功,一般步那个农民的后尘,搞得孩子苦不堪言,却不见孩子学业长进。这样的家长是不是该对这个疑问有所醒悟,让孩子天然生长呢?。

Once upon a time,there was a farmer who thought that the seedlings he planted grew slowly,so he went to the field and pulled them up one by one. After returning home,he said to his family,"I'm really exhausted today!But I finally made the seedlings grow taller."When his son came to the field,he found that all the seedtings were dead. Now some parents are eager to make their children successful,and they often follow in the footsteps of the farmer. As a result,their children suffer a lot,and there is no improvement in their study. Should such parents realize this problem and let their children grow up naturally?
