畫蛇添足古時幾個人分一壺酒，他們都想獨自喝完那壺酒。所以就定了一個規(guī)矩：每人在地上畫一條蛇，誰最先完成，這壺酒就歸誰。有一個人很快就把蛇畫好了。他正打算喝這壺酒時，看見別人都還在忙著畫，就決定給蛇再畫上幾只腳。然而，他的蛇腳還沒加完，另一個人已經(jīng)把蛇畫好了。那人一下把酒壺奪了過去，說：“有誰見過長腳的蛇？”GildtheLilyInancienttime,severalpeoplesharedapotofwineandallofthemwantedtofinishthewinealone.Sotheysetarulethateveryonewoulddrawasnakeonthegroundandthemanwhofinishedfirstwouldhavethewine.Onemanfinishedhissnakeverysoonandhewasabouttodrinkthewinewhenhesawtheotherswerestillbusydrawing.Sohedecidedtoaddfeettothesnake.However,beforehecouldfinishthefeet,anothermanfinishedthesnakeandgrabbedthepotfromhim,saying,“whohaseverseenasnakewithfeet?”掩耳盜鈴從前有一個人，看見鄰家大門上掛著一個鈴鐺，想把它偷走。他知道，那個鈴鐺只要一碰，就會叮鈴叮鈴地響起來，被人發(fā)覺。他想，響聲要用耳朵才能聽見，如果把自己耳朵掩起來，不就一點都聽不到了嗎？于是，他掩住了自己的耳朵，試著去偷那個鈴鐺。然而，手剛碰到鈴鐺，他就被人發(fā)覺了。由此可見，不正視事實的人最終會自食苦果。PlugOne’sEarswhileStealingaBellOnceuponatime,therewasamansawadoorbellhangingonthedoorofhisneighbor.Hewantedtostealit.Heknewthatthebellwouldringassoonashetouchedit.Andthenhewouldbediscovered.Hethoughtthatthesoundcanbeheardonlybyears.Butwhatifhehadcoveredhisears?Thenthesoundwouldnotbeheardanymore.Whereuponhecoveredhisownearsandtriedtostealthebell.However,hewasdiscoveredimmediatelywhenhetouchedthebell.Thusitcanbeseenthatthosewhodonotfacethetruthwillsuffertheconsequenceintheend.一鳴驚人戰(zhàn)國時期，齊王繼承王位已有三年了，可是他整天飲酒作樂，不理朝政。他的一個大臣，身材矮小但非常有頭腦。他對齊王說：“臣聽說齊國有一只大鳥，三年來不飛也不叫，大王知道這是一只什么鳥？”齊王知道大臣在暗喻自己，不由得大笑起來。他回答道：“此鳥不飛則已，一飛沖天；不鳴則已，一鳴驚人！”從此齊王勤于朝政，將國家建設(shè)的更加強大。MakeaGreatCoupDuringtheWarringStatesPeriod,theKingofQineglectedstateaffairsforthefirstthreeyearsofhisreign,givinghimselfovertodissipation.Oneofhisministers,whowassmallbutveryintelligent,saidtohim,“IheardthatthereisabigbirdintheStateofQi.Ithasneitherflownnorcrowedforthreeyears.Doyouknowwhatkindofbirditis?”TheKingknewthattheministerwasmetaphoricallyreferringtohimselfandcouldn'thelplaughing.ThentheKinganswered,“Oncethatbirdstartstoflyandsing,itwillastonishtheworld.”TheKingthereupondevotedhimselftohisdutiesandbuilthisstateupintoapowerfulone.濫竽充數(shù)戰(zhàn)國時，齊王喜歡聽竽，通常是三百人的大合奏。國王給樂師非常優(yōu)厚的待遇，所以一個叫南郭的人盡管并不擅長吹竽，也設(shè)法混進樂隊。每當(dāng)樂隊演奏時，南郭就站在隊伍里假裝也在吹。沒有人注意到其實他連一點聲音也沒吹出來，所以南郭也享受到和其他樂師一樣的待遇。齊王死后，他的兒子繼承了王位。他也喜歡聽竽，可是他喜歡聽獨奏，讓樂師一個個吹給他聽，于是南郭不得不逃出宮去。HoldaPostwithoutQualificationsDuringtheWarringStatesPeriod,theKingofQiwasveryfondoflisteningtoYu,whichwasusuallyplayedinalargeensembleof300people.TheKingtreatedhismusicianverywell.ThereforeamannamedNanguomanagedtobeamemberoftheband,eventhoughhewasnotgoodatplayingtheinstrumentYuatall.WheneverthebandplayedfortheKing,Nanguojuststoodinthelineandpretendedtoplay.Nobodyrealizedhewasmakingnosoundatall.Asaresult,heenjoyedhistreatmentjustastheothermusiciandid.Whenthekingdied,hissonbecamethenewrulerwhoalsolikedthemusicplayedonYu.However,hepreferredsolossothatheorderedthemusicianstoplayYuonebyone.Therefore,Nanguohadtorunoutofthepalace.望梅止渴有一天，天氣熱得出奇，曹操的部隊在山道上行走，兩邊的樹木和山石密布，讓人透不過氣來。到了中午，士兵的衣服都濕透了，行軍的速度也慢下來。曹操擔(dān)心貽誤戰(zhàn)機，他看了看前邊的樹林，沉思了一會兒。然后快速趕到隊伍前面，告訴士兵們前面有一大片梅林，那里的梅子又大又好吃。士兵們一聽，精神大振，步伐加快了許多。FeedonFanciesOneday,theweatherwassohot.CaoCao’stroopswerewalkingalongthemountainroad.Thetreesandrocksonbothsidesweresodenseandsuffocating.Bynoon,clothesofthesoldierswerewetandtheirmarchsloweddown.Fearingthathewouldlosehisbattle,CaoCaolookedattheforestinfrontofhimandthoughtforawhile.Thenhehurriedtothefrontofthelineandtoldthesoldiersthattherewasalargefieldofplumsinfrontofthem,andthattheplumstherewerebiganddelicious.Hearingthis,thesoldierswererefreshedandsteppedupalot.按圖索驥春秋時，秦國有個名叫孫陽的人，善于鑒別馬的好壞，他把自己識馬的經(jīng)驗寫成書，圖文并茂地介紹了各類好馬，所以人們把孫陽叫“伯樂”。孫陽的兒子通讀了這本書后，認為分辨馬的好壞非常簡單。因此，他便隨身帶著這本書去找良馬。有一次，他發(fā)現(xiàn)癩蛤蟆的特征與書上描述的千里馬的特征非常相符。于是馬上跑去告訴父親。孫陽聽后，哭笑不得。LookingforaSteedwiththeAidofItsPictureDuringtheSpringandAutumnPeriod,therewasamanintheStateofQinwhosenamewasSunYang.SunYangwasveryexpertinlookingathorsesandjudgingtheirworth.SunYangwroteabookbasedonhisexperienceandknowledgeaccumulatedovertheyears.Thebookwasalsoillustratedwiththepicturesofvarioushorses.Asaresult,peoplecalledhim“BoLe”.Hissonthoughtitwasveryeasytoappraisehorsesafterreadthebookthoroughly.Sohetookitwithhimtolookforfinehorses.Oncehefoundthecharacteristicsofatoadfitwellthecharacteristicsdescribedinthebook.ImmediatelyherushedtoSunYangatonce.SungYangdidnotknowwhetherheshouldlaughorcry.刻舟求劍春秋戰(zhàn)國時期，楚國有個人坐船渡江時，不小心把自己的一把寶劍掉落江中。他馬上掏出一把小刀，在寶劍落水的船舷上刻上一個記號，希望能夠幫助他找到寶劍。船靠岸后，那楚人立即從船上刻記號的地方跳下水去撈取掉落的寶劍。然而一番搜索過后，他什么也沒發(fā)現(xiàn)。他怎么找得到寶劍呢?船繼續(xù)行駛，而寶劍卻不會再移動。像他這樣去找劍難道不愚蠢嗎？CarveonGunwaleofaMovingBoatIntheSpringandAutumnPeriod,amanfromthestateofChuwastakingaboatacrossariverwhenhedroppedhisswordintothewatercarelessly.Immediatelyhemadeamarkonthesideoftheboatwherethesworddropped,hopingitcanbeofhelptofindthesword.Aftertheshipwasinport,hewentintothewatertosearchforhisswordattheplacewherehehadmarkedtheboat.However,nothingwasfoundafterasearch.Howcouldhefindhissword?Asweknow,theboathadmovedbuttheswordhadnot.Isn’tthisaveryfoolishwaytolookforasword?同舟共濟春秋戰(zhàn)國時，吳、越兩國連年交兵，兩國百姓彼此間關(guān)系也不好。有一次，吳國人和越國人碰巧共乘一條船渡河。開始時，他們都不理睬對方。船至河心，狂風(fēng)驟起，霎時驚濤駭浪迎面撲來，船隨時可能覆沒。此時，他們忘記了仇恨，相互救濟，好像一家人一樣。由于全船人的齊心協(xié)力，終于安全到達對岸。故事告訴我們，在面對困難時，只有團結(jié)互助才能克服困難。PeopleintheSameConditionHelpEachOtherIntheSpringandAutumnPeriod,theStateofWuandtheStateofYuedidn’tgetalongwell.Theyhadbeenfightingagainsteachotherforyears.Peopleineachcountryalsodidn’thaveagoodrelationship.Once,thepeopleofWuandthepeopleofYuehappenedtobeonthesameboattocrossariver.Atthebeginning,theydidn’tsayawordwitheachother.Whentheboatsailedtothecenteroftheriver,astrongwindcame.Innotime,hugewaveshitpeople’sfaces.Itseemedthattheboatwouldsinkatanytime.Justthen,theyforgotallthehatredbetweentwocountriesandbegantohelpeachotherjustliketheywerefamily.Intheend,theysafelygottotheriverbankundereveryone’seffort.Thisstorytellsusthatinthefaceofdifficulties,onlyworkinginunityandhelpingoneanothercanovercomethem.狐假虎威一只饑餓的老虎在山林里捉到了一只狐貍，要吃掉它。但是狐貍說：“你不能吃我，我是被派來統(tǒng)治百獸的。跟我走一趟你就知道了，如果有動物看到我卻不害怕我，那你就吃了我。”老虎同意了，因為他不相信一只狐貍能像自己一樣威猛。他跟在狐貍的后面走進山林。百獸遠遠見了老虎都害怕得紛紛逃命。老虎并沒注意到其實百獸害怕的是自己，于是就把狐貍給放了。AdornOneselfwithBorrowedPlumesOnceahungrytigercaughtafoxintheforestandwasabouttoeatthefox.Butthefoxsaid,“Youcannoteatme!Iwassenttoruleoverthebeasts!Followme,let’swalktogetherandyouwillsee.Ifanyanimalseesmeanddoesnotfearme,thenyoumayeatme.”Thetigeragreed,becausehecouldn’tbelieveafoxcouldbeaspowerfulashimself.Thetigerfollowedthefoxtotheforest.Alltheanimals,whentheysawthetigerinthedistance,wereallfrightenedandranaway.Thetigerhadnotnoticedthattheanimalswereactuallyafraidofhimself,soheletthefoxgo.黔驢技窮古時候黔地沒有驢子，
