Carving a Mark on the Boat to Find a Sword
（刻舟求剑）
In ancient times, a man from the State of Chu took a boat across the river to visit his relatives. He carried a big bundle with him and hung a sword by his side. It happened that there were many people on the boat that day. He had no place to sit, so he had to squeeze at the stern (back of the boat) to make do.
The wind was strong that day, and the river water surged violently. The small passenger boat they were on swayed in the wind as it rowed toward the opposite bank. Finally, they reached the middle of the river, but the wind seemed to get even stronger. Suddenly, a big wave hit the boat, making it jolt violently. The people on the boat also swayed from side to side. By accident, the sword slung over the Chu man's right shoulder (who was sitting at the stern) fell into the river with a “plop” and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
All the passengers on the boat felt sorry for the lost sword, but the man from Chu was not upset at all. He quickly pulled out a small dagger from his waist and carved a clear mark on the side of the boat where the sword had fallen. He talked to himself: “This is where my sword dropped into the water.” Everyone was confused and had no idea what he planned to do. Before they could ask, the man from Chu said happily: “Don't worry. When the boat reaches the shore, I'll jump into the water from the marked spot to find my sword—I'm sure I'll get it back!”
The sword had fallen into the middle of the river. The boat moved on, but the sword did not move with it. The man from Chu carved a mark on the boat and planned to find the sword by jumping into the water from that mark. How could he possibly find it He was really muddle-headed!
Moral
This story mocks people who have rigid thinking and fail to see that things are developing and changing. In our daily study and life, we must learn to look at things from a developmental perspective. We should never stick to an unchanging attitude when dealing with things that are changing all the time.
刻舟求剑
古时候，有个楚国人乘船渡江去拜访亲友。他随身带着一大包裹行李，身边还挂着一把剑。恰巧那天船上人很多，他没有座位可坐，只好挤在船尾（船的后部）将就一下。
那天风很大，江水汹涌澎湃。他们乘坐的这只小客船在风中摇晃着，向对岸划去。终于到了江心，可风似乎刮得更猛了。突然，一个大浪拍向船身，使船剧烈颠簸起来。船上的人也跟着左右摇晃。不巧的是，坐在船尾的楚国人右肩挂着的剑“扑通”一声掉进了江里，转眼间就不见了踪影。
船上所有乘客都为这把丢失的剑感到惋惜，可这个楚国人却一点也不着急。他赶紧从腰里掏出一把小匕首，在剑掉落的船舷位置刻下了一个清晰的记号，还自言自语道：“我的剑就是从这儿掉进水里的。”大家都一头雾水，不知道他要做什么。没等众人开口询问，楚国人就开心地说：“别担心，等船到了岸边，我就从这个记号的位置跳下水去找剑——我肯定能把它找回来！”
剑明明掉到了江心，船还在继续前行，可剑并不会跟着船一起动。这个楚国人在船上刻了个记号，就打算从记号处跳下水找剑，怎么可能找得到呢？他可真是糊涂啊！
寓意
这个故事讽刺了那些思想僵化、看不到事物发展变化的人。在我们日常的学习和生活中，必须学会用发展的眼光看待事物。面对时刻都在变化的事情，绝不能抱着一成不变的态度去应对。

高频语块对比与拓展
为帮助区分易混淆语块、强化记忆，以下整理文中核心语块的对比与拓展：
易混淆语块 含义与区别 拓展造句
take a boat vs. by boat 均表“乘船”，但“take a boat”是动词短语（作谓语），“by boat”是介词短语（作状语） - He took a boat to the island.（谓语）
fall into vs. drop into 均表“掉进”，“fall into”强调“意外掉落”（无主观意识），“drop into”可表“故意掉落”或“意外掉落” - The pen fell into the water.（意外）
stick to vs. keep to 近义，均表“坚持”，“stick to”更强调“不改变、固守”（如态度、规则），“keep to”更强调“遵守、不偏离”（如计划、路线） - Don’t stick to old ideas.（固守旧想法）
通过以上对比，可更精准掌握语块用法；同时建议结合“刻舟求剑”的故事逻辑，用3-5个高频语块复述故事核心（如“One day, a man from Chu took a boat across the river. By accident, his sword fell into the water. But he carved a mark on the boat and planned to find the sword by jumping from that mark—how could he possibly find it ”），在语境中巩固语块运用。
