守株待兔-Lying by the Tree to wait for
Lying by the Tree to wait for
Once upon a time there was a farmer who worked hard in the fields every day.One day, while he was ploughing the fields, he heard a bumping sound. He saw a rabbit lying by the trunk. He picked it up and found that it was a fat rabbit. He thought to himself,"Since it is so easy to get a rabbit like that, why should I work so hard all daylong?＇! He threw his hoe away and lay by the tree every day, dreaming for more rabbits to come. When he finally realized his foolishness and returned to his fields, he found that all his crops were dead. The story tells us that we should not wait for unexpected gains by trusting chance and luck. Or, we should not hope to get rewards without hard work.
守株待兔
從前有一個(gè)農(nóng)民每天在地里辛苦勞作。一天他正在耕地時(shí)聽到撞擊聲；他看到一只兔子躺在樹旁。他撿起一看是一只肥大的兔子，他自言自語地說：“既然這么容易撿到兔子，為什么我要整天辛苦勞作呢?”他扔掉鋤頭，每天躺在樹邊，夢(mèng)想有兔子來。當(dāng)他最終意識(shí)到他的愚蠢返回地里時(shí)，他發(fā)現(xiàn)他的稻谷全死了。這個(gè)故事告訴我們，我們不能等著機(jī)會(huì)和運(yùn)氣帶來的不可預(yù)料的收獲，也就是說，我們希望不勞而獲。
