Answer 1

【答案】Dear Carl，

I'm more than happy to know that you are getting on well with your Chinese learning. It's quite natural that you have difficulty in understanding the idiom in the picture because there is a story behind it which you may not know.

The fable goes that a farmer got a hare by chance which hit itself into a stump and died. After that，the farmer did nothing but sit by the stump day after day，dreaming to harvest more hares. The moral of the idiom is that nobody can get something for doing nothing. For example，you can use the idiom when you are determined to work harder and remind yourself not to count on your luck to succeed.

Idioms are heavy with Chinese culture. By studying them carefully, you will make amazing progress in your Chinese learning. And I am always ready to help you understand more of them.

Yours,

Li Hua
