第十三期：刻舟求剑
Cutting a Mark on the Boat to Find the Sword
今天我们与大家分享的成语故事是——“刻舟求剑”。
战国时，楚国有个人坐船渡江。船到江心，楚人一不小心，随身携带的一把宝剑滑落江中，他赶紧伸手去抓，可惜为时已晚，宝剑已经落入江中。船上的人们对此感到非常惋惜。
但那楚人似乎胸有成竹，马上掏出一把小刀，在船舷上刻上个记号，并且对大家说：“这是宝剑落水的地方，所以我要刻上一个记号。”大家都不理解他为何要这样做，也不再去问他。
船靠岸后，那楚人立即在船上刻有记号的地方下水，去捞取掉落的宝剑。楚人捞了半天，始终不见宝剑的影子。他觉得很奇怪，自言自语地说“我的宝剑不就是从这里掉下去的吗？我还在这里刻上了记号，现在怎么会找不到呢？”
听他这么一说，那些人纷纷大笑起来，说道：“船一直在行进，而你的宝剑却沉入了水底，不会随船移动，你又怎能找得到你的剑呢？”
刻舟求剑是一个寓言故事演化而成的成语，出自《吕氏春秋·察今》。一般比喻死守教条，拘泥成法，固执不变通的人。在句子中多作谓语、定语或状语，多含贬义。
Hello everyone, this is UK Hebei we radio , Han Dan idiom talk show .the name of the story I will tell you today is: Cutting a Mark on the Boat to Find the Sword.
One day, a man of the State of Chu was crossing a river by boat. Due to carelessness, his sword which hung at his side fell into the water. Not in the least worried, he slowly took out a small knife and cut a mark on the side of the boat.
Someone on the boat asked him: "Why don't you jump into the water at once to fish for your sword? What's the use of making this mark on the side of the boat?"
He pointed to the mark on the side of the boat, saying unhurriedly:"There is no need to worry. My sword fell into the river at this marked place. As soon as the boat reaches the dock and pulls in to shore, I will jump down from here to retrieve my sword."
When the boat stopped moving, he went into the water to look for his sword at the place where he had marked the boat. Of course he couldn't find it. He didn't realise the boat had moved but the sword had not.
Finally he appeared in the water and murmured:"What's happening? why can't I find my sword from the water just under the mark?"Laughter burst from the passengers.
