历史成语故事望梅止渴 原文 东汉末年，曹操带兵去攻打张绣，一路行军，走得非常辛苦。时值盛夏，太阳火辣辣地挂在空中，散发着巨大的热量，大地都快被烤焦了。曹操的军队已经走了很多天了，十分疲乏。这一路上又都是荒山秃岭，没有人烟，方圆数十里都没有水源。将士们想尽了办法，始终都弄不到一滴水喝。头顶烈日，战士们一个个被晒得头昏眼花，大汗淋淋，可是又找不到水喝，大家都口干舌燥，感觉喉咙里好像着了火，许多人的嘴唇都干裂得不成样子，鲜血直淌。每走几里路，就有人倒下中暑死去，就是身体强壮的士兵，也渐渐地快支持不住了。 曹操目睹这样的情景，心里非常焦急。他策马奔向旁边一个山岗，在山岗上极目远眺，想找个有水的地方。可是他失望地发现，龟裂的土地一望无际，干旱的地区大得很。再回头看看士兵，一个个东倒西歪，早就渴得受不了，看上去怕是难得再走多远了。 曹操是个聪明的人，他在心里盘算道：这一下可糟糕了，找不到水，这么耗下去，不但会贻误战机，还会有不少的人马要损失在这里，想个什么办法来鼓舞士气，激励大家走出干旱地带呢? 曹操想了又想，突然灵机一动，脑子里蹦出个好点子。他就在山岗上，抽出令旗指向前方，大声喊道：“前面不远的地方有一大片梅林，结满了又大又酸又甜的梅子，大家再坚持一下，走到那里吃到梅子就能解渴了!” 战士们听了曹操的话，想起梅子的酸味，就好像真的吃到了梅子一样，口里顿时生出了不少口水，精神也振作起来，鼓足力气加紧向前赶去。就这样，曹操终于率领军队走到了有水的地方。 曹操利用人们对梅子酸味的条件反射，成功地克服了干渴的困难。可见人们在遇到困难时，不要一味畏惧不前，应该时时用对成功的渴望来激励自己，就会有足够的勇气去战胜困难，到达成功的彼岸。 英文 One summer, Cao Cao was leading his troops in a punitive expedition against Zhang Xiu. It was extraordinarily hot. The burning sun was like a fire, and the sky was cloudless. The soldiers were walking on the winding mountain paths. The dense forest and the hot rocks exposed to the sun on both sides of the paths made the soldiers feel suffocated. By noontime the soldiers' clothes were wet through with sweat, and the marching speed slowed down. Some solders of weak physique even fainted on the roadside. Seeing that the marching speed was slower and slower, Cao Cao was very worried because he feared that he might bungle the chance of winning the battle. But how could they quicken their speed? Cao Cao at once called the guide and asked him on the quiet whether there was a source of water nearby. The guide shook his head, saying that the spring water was on the other side of the mountain, which was very far to have to make a detour to reach. Cao Cao realized that time didn't permit them to make such a detour. After thinking for a moment, he said to the guide, "Keep quiet. I'll find a way out." He knew that it would be to no avail to order his troops to quicken the steps. He had a brainwave and found a good solution. He spurred his horse and came to the head of the column. Pointing his horsewhip to the front, Cao Cao said, "Soldiers, I know there is a big forest of plums ahead. The plums there are both big and delicious. Let's hurry along, and we will reach the forest of plums after bypassing this hill." When the solders heard this, they immediately slobbered. Picturing in their minds the sweet and sour flavour of the plums, the soldiers felt as if they were actually eating the plums themselves. The morale greatly boosted, the soldiers quickened their steps a great deal automatically. This story comes from "The Fake Tangery" in Anecdotes of This World by Liu Yiqing of the Southern Dynasties period 420-589. From this story, people have derived the set phrase "quenching thirst by watching plums" to refer to trying to comfort oneself of others by idle dreams. 读后感 一本好书就是一位朋友，虽然我已无数次观摩好书——古文观止，但吸引力像磁铁一样把我牢牢拴住。回味那一篇篇饱含知识、意义、启示的古文。当我打开书，总会习惯性地翻到103页，因为望梅止渴这个故事给我深刻的、终生的启示，耐人寻味。 望梅止渴这件事发生在曹操率领部队讨伐张绣期间。那是一个烈日当空的夏天，天气热得出奇。部队顶着大太阳走着，让人透不过气来。有几个战士因为太热，太疲劳而晕倒了，战士们的速度也跟着慢了下来，实在太渴了。曹操问向导哪里有水喝而向导的话出乎曹操的意料，并想过要放弃：“要翻过一座大山，走很远很远的路才到!”曹操心急如焚，但他始终不肯放弃。最后，凭借曹操过人的机智，他灵机一动想出一个好方法。“前面不远处有梅林，那儿的梅子又大又甜!”曹操胸有成竹地对战士们说。战士们听后垂涎三尺，信心大增，结果经不懈的努力，艰苦的跋涉，终于找到了水源，完成了任务! 是啊!“有志者，事竟成!”这是一句多么现实，多么富有哲理的一句话呀!在生活中，我们不管做任何事，都不要想战士们一样放弃，一定要坚持到底永不放弃，就算只有一丝丝的希望也不要放弃，努力去做就一定能成功，成功!在困难的时候，就像爬到山腰上有气无力的时候，一定要给自己一个诱惑，一个目标让自己永不放弃，坚持攀登到顶峰，让事情完成的顺风顺水。一切努力就不会白费，加油! 有了希望，就有前进的勇气，就没什么事情是完不成的。曹操用虚拟的梅林引起战士们的决心，激发战士们的勇气。因此我们在经受百般挫折或对现实产生迷茫时，要用虚拟的“梅林”来为自己描绘出美好的蓝图! 感谢您的阅读，祝您生活愉快。 本文来源：https://www.wddqw.com/doc/ede649dfa01614791711cc7931b765ce04087af4.html
