Confucius, a wise teacher, tells his students about the importance of both learning and thinking. He says, “
Learning without thinking is useless, but thinking without learning is dangerous.” To explain this, he uses the example of a farmer who only learns how to plant seeds(种子). He plants them but doesn't think about how to take care of them. The seeds don't grow, and he has no
harvest. On the other hand, if the farmer only thinks about how to take care of the seeds but doesn't plant any, he doesn't have any harvest either. Confucius teaches us that both learning and thinking are important for success(成功). We should study hard and think carefully.
