There was a farmer in Song Dynasty, and there was a stump in his field. One day, a hare, which ran fast, hit the stump and broke his neck and died. So the farmer put down his farm tools day and night and stayed beside the stump, hoping to get another rabbit. However, hare can not be obtained again, and he himself is also laughed at by later generations.
译文:宋国有个农民，他的田地中有一截树桩。一天，一只跑得飞快的野兔撞在了树桩上，扭断了脖子死了。于是，农民便放下他的农具日日夜夜守在树桩子旁边，希望能再得到一只兔子。然而野兔是不可能再次得到的，而他自己也被后人所耻笑。
