In my daily life, I always want things to be done quickly, however, the results tend to turn out just the opposite of what I wish. As the saying goes “more haste¹, less speed”, baste² never helps, instead it makes waste.

在日常生活中，我总想把事情办得炔一些，可结果往往事与愿违。正如常言道：“欲速则不达”。图快毫无益处，反而造成浪费。

Once I was in a hurry trying to catch the train to Shanghai. I packed up and put all the things I would need into a suitcase and locked it. Then I took a taxi and boarded the train on time. When I arrived in Shanghai and was comfortably settled³ in a hotel, I tried to open my suitcase. To my great disappointment⁴, I found I did not have the key with me. I had left it at home without my knowing it.

有一次，我忙着去赶上海的火车，收拾好行李，把所需要的东西放进箱子，上了锁。然后乘出租车，及时上了火车。到上海并在旅馆里舒适地安顿下来后，就要打开箱子。令我大失所望的是：我发现自己没带钥匙，不知不觉地把钥匙丢在了家里了。

Another Time I was trying to fill a bettIe with hot water to warm my feet before going to bed. In a hurry, I took the bottle full of “cold water” and poured it out. While I was pouring and cnjoying the sound the liquid made while coming out of the bottle, my brother shouted at me, “Hey, you are pouring out my liqor!”

又有一次，在睡觉前我想灌一瓶热水焐脚。匆忙之中，我拿起一瓶盛满“凉水”的瓶，然后把凉水倒掉。我正在一面倒一面欣赏液体从瓶中倒出的声音时，我哥哥朝我大叫：“嘿，你把我的白酒给倒了!”

From my own experinece, I draw a painful lesson HASTE MAKES WASTE.

从自己的经历中，我得出一个痛苦的教训：欲速则不达。
