愚公移山
古代有位老人,住在华山北,叫北山愚公.他家南向有两痤大山挡住他家的出路,一座叫太行山,一痤叫王屋山.愚公下决心率领他的儿子们要用锄头挖去这两痤大山.有个老头子叫智叟的看了发笑,说是你们这样未免太愚蠢了,你们父子数人要挖掉这样两座大山是完全不可能的.愚公回答叫:"我死了以后有我的儿子,儿子死了,又有孙子,子子孙孙是没有穷尽的.这两座山虽然很高,却不会再增高了,挖点就会少一点,为什么挖不平呢?"愚公批驳了智叟的错误思想,毫不动摇,白天挖山不止.这件事感动了上天,他就派了两个神仙下凡,把两座山背走了.


解答:

in the ancient time, an old man named YuGong lived in the north of Hua Mountain. there were two mountains standing in the south of their yard, which cut their way. one was TaiHang Mountain,the other was WangWu Mountain. YuGong made a great decision that he would move them with his sons. when ZhiYu, a geezer, saw this, he laughed and said you were so stupid,it was impossible for you to finish it. YuGong answerd after me,my sons would continue. after my sons, my grandsons still took over our work. we would never stop. but,TaiHang Mountain and WangWu Mountain would not grow up, though they were high now. they would become lower and lower. someday they would disappear. YuGong insisted moving one day after one day. the Heaven were affected at last. he assigned God to help YuGong moving the two big mountains.
