中國(guó)成語(yǔ)故事邯鄲學(xué)步雙語(yǔ)版
Handan was the capital of the State of Zhao during the Warring States Period.
邯鄲，是戰(zhàn)國(guó)時(shí)期趙國(guó)的首都。
A young man in the State of Yan heard that the State of Zhao was more powerful than the State of Yan, so he was much interested in the State of Zhao. Consequently, he crossed over mountain after mountain by himself and got to Handan.
燕國(guó)有個(gè)青年聽(tīng)說(shuō)趙國(guó)比燕國(guó)強(qiáng)大，對(duì)趙國(guó)很感興趣。于是，他一個(gè)人翻山越嶺，來(lái)到了邯鄲。
Upon arrival at Handan, he felt that the State of Zhao was indeed more stable than the State of Yan. Even the way of walking of the people of the State of Zhao looked better than that of the people of the State of Yan. He made up his mind to learn how the people of the State of Zhao walked in Handan, so that in the future the people of the State of Yan could walk as gracefully as them.
到了邯鄲，他覺(jué)得趙國(guó)確實(shí)比燕國(guó)安定，連趙國(guó)人走路的姿勢(shì)都比燕國(guó)人好看。他決定在邯鄲學(xué)會(huì)趙國(guó)人走路，將來(lái)讓燕國(guó)人走路也能像趙國(guó)人一樣好看。
Yet, that was easier said than done. No matter how hard he tried, he was unable to learn the gait of the people of the State of Zhao. On the contrary, he even forgot completely how he walked in the State of Yan. In the end, he had no alternative but to crawl back from the State of Zhao to the State of Yan.
可是，說(shuō)起來(lái)容易做起來(lái)難。這個(gè)青年怎么學(xué)也沒(méi)有學(xué)會(huì)趙國(guó)人走路的姿勢(shì)，反而連自己在燕國(guó)時(shí)如何走路也忘得干干凈凈。最后，池沒(méi)有辦法，只好爬著離開(kāi)趙國(guó)回燕國(guó)去了。
