我再给你补充2个哦。浅显易懂！刻舟求剑makinghismark战国时，楚国有个人坐船渡江。船到江心，他一不小心。把随身携带的一把宝剑掉落江中。他马上掏出一把小刀，在船舷上刻上一个记号，说：“这是我宝剑落水的地方，所以我要刻上一个记号。”船靠岸后，那楚人立即从船上刻记号的地方跳下水去捞取掉落的宝剑。捞了半天，仍不见宝剑的影子。其实他又怎么找得到宝剑呢？船继续行驶，而宝剑却不会再移动。像他这样去找剑，真是太愚蠢可笑了。amanfromthestateofchuwascrossingariver.intheboat,hisswordfellintothewater.immediatelyhemadeamarkontheboat."thisiswheremyswordfelloff,"hesaid.whentheboatstoppedmoving,hewentintothewatertolookforhisswordattheplacewherehehadmarkedtheboat.theboathadmovedbuttheswordhadnot.isthisnotaveryfoolishwaytolookforasword?拨苗助长topulluptheseedlingstohelpthemgrow从前，有个农夫，种了稻苗后，便希望能早早收成。每天他到稻田时，发觉那些稻苗长得非常慢。他等得不耐烦，心想：“怎么样才能使稻苗长得高，长很快呢?想了又想，他终了想到一个“最佳方法”，就是将稻苗拨高几分。经过一番辛劳后，他满意地扛锄头回家休息。心想：明天稻苗长得一定更高了。隔天早晨．一早起身，他迫不及待地起去稻田看他的“成果”。哪知，他跑到稻田时，却看到所有的稻苗都枯萎了。onceuponatime,anoldfarmerplantedaplotofrice.everydayhewenttothefieldtowatchtheseedlingsgrow.hesawtheyoungshootsbreakthroughthesoilandgrowtallereachday.butstill,hethoughttheyweregrowingtooslowly.hegotimpatientwiththeyoungplants."howcouldtheplantsgrowfaster?"hetossedinbedduringthenightandcouldnotsleep.suddenlyhehituponanidea.hehadanideanotwaitfordaybreak.hejumpedoutofthebedanddashedtothefield.bythemoonlight,hebeganworkingonthericeseedlings.onebyone,hepulleduptheyoungplantsbyhalfaninch.whenhefinishedpulling,itwasalreadymorning.straighteninghisback,hesaidtohimself,"whatawonderfulidea!look,howmuchtallertheplantshavegrownonenight!"withgreatsatisfaction,hewentbackhome.hetoldhissonwhathehaddoneinatriumphanttone.hissonwasshocked.nowthesunhadrisen.theyoungmanwasheart-brokentoseeallthepulled-upyoungplantsdying.

During the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC), prince Zhou Xu of the State of Wei killed his brother and became the new emperor. Zhou Xu was a tyrant. He oppressed his people and indulged in wars of agGREssion. By launching wars, he tried to divert the people's attention and reduce their discontent with him in order to consolidate his dictatorship.
The Duke of the State of Lu leant about Zhou Xu's usurpation of state power and his ambitious plan, he asked a senior official, "What do you think about Zhou Xu's move? "The official answered, "He indulges in wars , bringing his people much disaster. He won't get their support. And he's capricious, so few of his close friends follow him. He can never achieve his success. In addition, war is like fire. If one launches wars endlessly without restraint, he'll eventually burn himself. "
Sure enough, the people of Wei with the help of the State of Chen overthrew Zhou Xu and killed him in less than a year.
Later, people use it to mean that those who do evil will finally ruin themselves.
Imitating Another without Success and Losing What Used to Be One'sOwn Ability
Tradition has it that more than 2,oooyears ago,there lived a young man in the Shouling area of the State of Yan.As his name is not known ,we just call him Shouling young man for convenience's sake.
self confident He was at a loss as to how to behave all the time.
His family members advised him to overcome this shortcoming,but he thought they were fond of poking their noses into his business and were unwilling to provide him with tuition fee.His relatives and neighbours sneered at him,saying that he would never be able to learn anything.Asthe days went by,he even began to doubt whether he should walk the way he did,for he felt more and more that his walking gestures were too clumsy and awkward.
One day,he met some people on the road who werechattingand laughing.One of themsaid that people in Handan walked most gracefully.And thatwas just what he was most concerned about,so he hurreed towards themand wanted to make further inquiries.To his surprise,when these people saw him,they stalked off laughing.
He could not picture to himself in what way their walking gestures were graceful,no matter how hard he racked his parents one day.He went to Handanwhich was far away to learn how to walk.
As soon as he arrived in Handan,he was dazzled to find that everything was novel.He learned from the children there how to walk,because he thought that the children's walking gestures were lively and pleasing to the eye.He learnd from the old people there how to walk,because he thought the old people's walking gestures were steady .He learnd from the women there how to walk,because he thought the women' swaying walking gestures were beautiful.That being the case with him ,in less than half a month he even forgot how to walk.As he had already used up his traveling expenses,he had to crawl back home.
Thisstory come from the article"Autumn Water"in The Works of Xhuang Zi(Zhuang Zi was a famous ancient Chinese philosopher of about 300B.c.).Later the set phrase"initating another without success and losing what used to be one's own ability"is used to refer to acts of copying others mechanisally in disregard of specififc conditions.
Near China's northern borders lived a man well versed in the practices of Taoism. His horse, for no reason at all, got into the territory of the northern tribes. Everyone commiserated with him.
"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing," said his father.
After a few months, his animal came back, leading a fine horse from the north. Everyone congratulated him.
"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a cause of misfortune," said his father.
Since he was well-off and kept good horses his son became fond of riding and eventually broke his thigh bone falling from a horse. Everyone commiserated with him.
"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing," said his father.
One year later, the northern tribes started a big invasion of the border regions. All able-bodied young men took up arms and fought against the invaders, and as a result, around the border nine out of ten men died. This man's son did not join in the fighting because he was crippled and so both the boy and his father survived.
