Grinding An Iron Rod Into A Needle 铁棒磨成针
Li Bai was a great poet (诗人) in the Tang Dynasty (朝代) of China.
李白是中国唐朝的一位伟大诗人。
It is said that in his childhood, he was very fond of playing and afraid of difficulties, and made slow progress (进步) in his studies.
传说在他小时候，他很贪玩，怕困难，学习进步很慢。
One day, on his way home after school, he walked by a creek and saw an old woman grinding (磨) a very thick iron rod.
有一天，在放学回家的路上，他路过一条小河边，看见一位老婆婆正在磨一根很粗的铁棒。
Being curious, he went to the old woman and asked: “Old grandma, why are you grinding this iron rod?”
他觉得很奇怪，就走到老婆婆跟前问道：“老婆婆，您磨这根铁棒干什么？”
The old woman replied: “To make a needle (针).”
老婆婆说：“磨成针。”
At this moment, Li Bai felt more curious and asked again:
这时候，李白更觉得奇怪了，又问：
“How can you grind such a thick iron rod into a needle?”
“您怎么能把这么粗的铁棒磨成针呢？”
“I can! I certainly can!” the old woman said.
“我能！我一定能！”老婆婆说。
“If one works with constant effort, one can grind an iron rod into a needle.”
“只要不断努力，铁棒就能磨成针。”
Hearing the old woman’s words, Li Bai was enlightened.
听了老婆婆的话，李白受到了启发。
Since then, Li Bai studied hard and made rapid progress. Eventually he became a famous poet.
从此，李白刻苦学习，取得了很快的进步。他终于成了一位有名的诗人。
