      拔苗助长

      Ba Miao Zhu Zhang | A Chinese idiom

      · Language Insight

       植物还没有长大的时候被称作“苗”,一棵小苗长大需要不少时间。没有耐心的人可能会试着把小苗从土里往上拔一拔,来帮助它长大。而结果,我们都知道,小苗不仅不会因此长大,反而会因为根部受伤而死掉。

      小明很想学好英语,他决定用一个月的时间把英语成绩从70分提高到100分。第一天,他制定了一个计划:每天背100个单词、做5篇阅读理解。他觉得这样努力学习,一定可以很快进步。刚开始,小明很有动力。他每天都学习到很晚,甚至不休息。但是,几天后,他发现自己越来越累,背的单词记不住,阅读题也总是出错。更糟糕的是,他越来越不想学习英语了。 

      一次英语考试后,小明的成绩不仅没有提高,反而下降了。小明的老师说:“你的努力是好的,但是学习是需要时间的。你不应该拔苗助长。” 听了老师的话,小明决定调整自己的学习方法,每天只背5个单词,阅读1篇文章,并且复习自己做错的题目。一段时间后,他发现自己记得的单词越来越多,阅读也越来越顺利,英语成绩慢慢提高了。

      拔苗助长:违背发展规律,急于求成,最后反而失败了。
