中国成语故事英文版：南辕北辙
One day, Ji Liang went to see the King of Wei and reported:
一天，季梁去见魏王，报告说：
"When I was coming here, I saw a man on the road driving a horse carage north in great haste."
“这次，我来的时候，在路上看到一个人，驾着马车往北走，走得很急。”
"I asked him: ‘Where are you going in such haste?’"
“我问他：‘走得这么急，你要去哪儿？’”
"He replied: ‘I am going to the State of Chu.'
“他回答说：‘我要到楚国去。’”
"I said: ‘If you want to go to the State of Chu, you should go south. Why are you going north? You are going the wrong way!’
“我说：‘你去楚国，应该朝南走，怎么往北呢？你走错了！’”
"He said: ‘My horse is big and strong. It can run as fast as flying. It doesn't matter to run a little more.'
“他说：‘我的马很好，又高又大，跑起来跟飞一样快。多跑点儿没关系。’”
"I told him: ‘Though your horse is good, you are going in the wrong direction.'
“我告诉他：‘你的马虽然好，可是去楚国的方向不对呀’！”
"He said: ‘It doesn't matter. I have lots of money.'
“他说：‘没关系，我有很多钱。’”
"I told him again: ‘Though you have lots of money, this is not the road to the State of Chu.'
“我又告诉他：‘你钱虽然多，但是这不是去楚国的路呀！’”
"He said: ‘It doesn't matter. My driver is good and strong.'
“他说：‘没关系，我的车夫好，他身强力壮。’”
"Finally I told him: ‘Though your driver is good and strong, this is not the road to the State of Chu."
“最后我告诉他：‘你的车夫虽然好，但是这不是去楚国的路呀！'”
The King of Wei blurted out: "Alas, this man is too obstinate. He doesn't realize that if his direction is wrong, the better he is equipped, the farther he would be away from his destination."
魏王脱口说道：“唉！这个人真固执。他不知道方向错了，条件越好，离开目的地就越远。”
