I have used up all my skills(黔驢技窮)
During the Tang Dynasty in China, there was
a famous writer. His name is (Liu Zongyuan).
He wrote a story.
There are no donkeys in this place in (Guizhou).
A man brought a donkey from afar to sell
it. But if no one wanted to buy it, he gave the donkey freedom.
This donkey lives a leisurely life every
day. He eats grass every day and then goes to sleep.
There was a tiger living on a nearby
mountain. One day, this tiger went down and wandered around.
Suddenly, he found a tall strange animal
grazing leisurely on the grass.
The tiger was very curious, so he hid among
the trees and peeked at the donkey.
After a while, the tiger approached the
donkey very carefully. It wanted to observe the donkey carefully.
When the donkey saw the tiger approaching
him, the donkey yelled.
The tiger was taken aback. It quickly
turned around and ran back to the mountain.
In the next week, the tiger was too
curious, so he often came to take a peek at the donkey, the tiger is also used
to the call of the donkey.
One day, the tiger plucked up the courage
again and slowly approached the donkey.
This time, because the distance was too
close, he was almost touching the donkey's body. The donkey was very angry, so
he raised his hind leg to kick the tiger.
The tiger was very agile and immediately
avoided the attack.
After another week, the tiger observed
every day and often approached the donkey.
Tiger finally got a conclusion. This
strange animal has no combat power, it just yells and kicks.
When the tiger was hungry the next day, the
tiger pounced on the donkey, and then ate it.
After (Liu Zongyuan) finished writing this
story, he brought out his thoughts.
If the eaten donkey can keep calm and don't
easily let the tiger know that he has no ability, the donkey may not be eaten
so quickly.
This idiom is used to describe a person's
skills are very limited, and all skills have been used up.
Dear friend, what inspiration or thoughts
did you have after hearing this story.
Do you think you are this donkey or this
tiger? If you think your own skills are not enough, how do you strengthen your
skills now?
I hope this story will give you some new
gains.

黔驢技窮 (I have used up all my skills)
中國的唐朝時代，有一位著名的文學家。他的名字叫做柳宗元。
他寫過一個故事。
貴州這個地方沒有驢子。
有一個人從遠地載了一隻驢子過來過來要賣。但沒有人要買，他就給這隻驢子自由。
這隻驢子每天悠閒的生活，他每天吃草，然後就睡覺。
有一隻老虎住在附近的山上，有一天，這隻老虎下山閒逛。
突然，他發現了有一隻身形高大的陌生動物在草地上悠閒地吃草。
老虎很好奇，牠便躲在樹叢間偷看這隻驢子。
過了一會兒，老虎便很小心謹慎地走近這隻驢子。牠想仔細觀察這隻驢子。
這隻驢子發現這隻老虎向他靠近，驢子便大聲叫。
老虎嚇了一跳。牠趕緊掉頭就跑回山上去了。
接下來的一個禮拜，這隻老虎因為太好奇了，所以他常常過來偷看這隻驢子，老虎也習慣的驢子的叫聲。
有一天，老虎又鼓起了勇氣，又慢慢地走近這隻驢子。
這次因為距離太近了，已經快碰到驢子的身體了。驢子很生氣，便舉起後腳想踢這隻老虎。
老虎動作很敏捷，馬上就躲過了這攻擊。
又過了一個禮拜，老虎每天觀察，並且常常靠近這隻驢子。
老虎最後得到一個結論。這隻奇怪的動物並沒有戰鬥力，牠只會大聲叫，然後用腳踢。
老虎隔天肚子餓的時候，老虎就撲咬這隻驢子，然後把這隻吃了牠。
柳宗元寫完這故事後，帶出他的想法。
這隻被吃掉的驢子若是可以保持沉著，不輕易的讓老虎知道自己沒有本事，驢子可能就不會那麼快被吃掉啊。
這句成語被用來形容一個人的技能很有限，並且已經用完所有的技能了。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你覺得你是這隻驢子還是這隻老虎呢?若你覺得你自已的技能不足夠，妳現在要怎樣加強自己的技能呢?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
