　　There are numerous³ examples supporting this argument.A case in point is the ancientChinese story of “Helping the shoots grow by pulling.”This story proved that the hastecaused not only waste but great loss.For another example,some parents and teachers,in orderto improve children's academic performance in a short time,tend to put too heavy burden onchildren.This,as a result,brings the children nothing but great pressure.
