漢英雙解經典成語故事

《揠苗助長》 can mean "to help seedlings grow by pulling up the plants", which is a classic idiom story in Chinese. It tells the story of a farmer who tried to speed up the growth of his crops by pulling them up, but in doing so, he actually caused the plants to die. This idiom is used to warn people not to do things that are contrary to nature and cause harm to themselves.

In English, there is no direct equivalent to this idiom, but it could be roughly translated as "doing something that is counterproductive and harmful".
