This is true in the tales about the Changeling. These tell the story of a mother whose baby grows  43   and pale and has changed so much that it is almost  44   to the parents. It was then  45   that the fairies had come and stolen the baby away and  46   the human baby with a fairy Changeling. There were many ways to prevent this from happening: hanging a knife over the baby’s head while he slept or covering him with some of his father’s clothes were just two of the recommended 47.  However, hope was not lost even if the baby had been  48 . In those cases there was often a way to get the  49   baby back.

Chinese proverbs are rich and they are still widely used in Chinese people’s daily life.   6.these proverbs there are often interesting stories. For example, the proverb, “plucking up a crop   7.(help) it grow”, is based on the following story.

It is said that a short—tempered man in the Song Dynasty (960—1279) was very anxious to help   8.rice crop grow up quickly. He was thinking about   9.day and night. But the crop was growing much slower than he expected.

One day, he came up with an idea   10.he would pluck up all of his crop a few inches. He did so the next day.

He was very tired   11.doing this for a whole day,   12.he felt very happy since the crop did “grow”  13.(high).

His son heard about this and went to see the crop. Unfortunately the leaves of the crop began to wither.

This proverb is saying we have to let things go in their   14.(nature) course. Being too anxious to help an event develop often   15.(result) in the contrary to our intention.
