美好品德的成语典故【精彩20篇】

东施效颦

Xi Shi, a famous beauty, had a pain in her bosom(胸部) , so she had a frown

on her face when she went out. An ugly girl who lived nearby saw her and thought

she looked very beautiful. therefore when she went home, she also put her hands

on her bosom and had a frown on her face.

When a rich man in the neighbourhood saw her, he shut his doors tightly and

did not go out. When a poor man saw her, he took his wife and children and gave

her a wide berth(保持安全距离) .

She only knew Xi Shis frown looked beautiful but she did not know the

reason for its beauty.

万事俱备 只欠东风

China has been divided into three kingdoms historically: Wei in the north,

Shu in the southwest and Wu in the southeast.

Once Cao Cao from Wei led a 200,000 strong army down to the south to wipe

out the kingdoms of Wu and Shu. Therefore, Wu and Shu united to defend his

attack. Cao ordered his men to link up the boats by iron chains to form a bridge

for the Caos passing from the north bank of Yangtze River to the south bank.

The General Commander of the allied army was Zhou Yu. He analyzed the situation

carefully. Then he got a good idea. He decided to attack the enemy with fire. So

he began to prepare for the neting battle. Suddenly he thought of the direction

of wind. He needed the east wind to blow strongly in order to acnetplish his

scheme. However, the wind did not nete for days. Thus Zhou Yu was worried about

it. At that time, he got a note from Zhuge Liang, the military adviser of the

State of Shu, which reads:

"To fight Cao Cao

Fire will help you win

Everything is ready

Except the east wind"

Quickly he turned to Zhuge Liang for help. Zhuge told him not to worry and

there would be an east wind in a couple of days. Two days later, the east wind

helped Zhou acnetplish his scheme. At last, the allied army won the war.

Later, people use it to say "All is ready except what is crucial".

专心致志

Yi Qiu was known as the most famous expert at chess throughout the land.

Once he gave lessons on chess to two men. One of them was netpletely absorbed in

his teaching, listening attentively to Yi Qiu while the other, who seemed to be

listening, had his mind on something else. In fact, he was having a fancy that a

swan was flying towards him and he had in his hands a bow and an arrow, ready to

shoot. As a result, though he was having the same lesson together with the first

man, yet he turned out a much inferior(差的，自卑的) pupil.

If one does not give single-hearted devotion to it, no skills will be

learned.

一技之长

Gong sun Long , is a famous scholar lived in the State of Zhao during the

Warring States Period (475-221BC). He had kept a circle skilled people around

him. He often said, "A wise man should welnete anyone with a specialty."

One day, a man dressed in tattered(破烂的) and dirty clothes came to see him

and said to him:" I have a special skill. "

Gong asked: "What is it?"

"I have a loud voice and Im good at shouting."

Then Gong turned to his followers and asked," Who is good at shouting?" But

none of them answered "Yes ". So the scholar took the man in.

Some days later, Gong and his followers went on a trip. They came to a wide

river and found the ferryboat was on the other side of the river. All of them

had no idea. Suddenly, Gong thought of the shouting expert and turned to him,

"Can you have a try?" The man realized it was the chance to show his skill. He

shouted to the ferryman as loud as he could, "Hey, ferryman, nete here, we want

to cross the river." As his voice ended, the ferryman came to fetch them. Gong

was very satisfied with the new follower.

Later, people use it to describe anyone who has a special professional

skill.

相敬如宾

During the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC), there was a high official

in the State of Jin. He once saw a farmer working in the field and his wife

bringing his lunch to him in a very respectful manner. He showed great interest

in the matter. He took the farmer back to Jin with him, and said to the King of

Jin, "Respect is a demonstration of virtue. If one is respectful, he must be

virtuous. We should educate our people with virtue." But the King asked, "His

father is guilty, is it wise to do so?" He replied, "Guan Zhong had been enemy

to the Duke Huan of Qi, but the duke appointed Guan Zhong prime minister and

finally acnetplished his hegemony. Shun exiled Gun but promoted his son Yu. You

just make use of his strong points." At last, Duke Wen took his advice and put

the farmer in an important position.

Later, this idiom means a couple treats each other with respect like

guests.

郑人买履

A man of the state of Zheng wanted to buy a pair of shoes. He measured his

foot and put the measurement on a chair. When he set out for the market he

forgot to bring it along. It was after he had found the pair he wanted that this

occurred to him.

I forgot the measurement, said he.

He went home to get it but when he returned the market had broken up and he

did not get his shoes after all.

Why didnt you try on the shoes with your feet?

He was asked.

I d rather trust the measurement than trust myself.

入木三分

Wang Xi-zhi is one of the most famous calligraphers(书法家) during the Eastern

Jin Dynasty of China. When he was very young, he practiced his art every day and

never stopped.

Later he absorbed the strong points of all the other schools of

calligraphy, and developed his own unique style of writing. Because of his

achievements, he has been honored as one of Chinas sages of calligraphy. One

time, Wang Xi-zhi sketched in wood for an engraver to cut. Then the engraver

found the ink had penetrated one centimeter into the wood.

"Ru Mu San Fen" is got from this story, which means the calligraphy is

penetrating.

Now it is often used to describe expressing sharp ideas or profound

views.

望梅止渴

Among the outstanding figures of Chinese history, famous either for their

intelligence or treachery(背叛,变节), Cao Cao is one of the foremost.

One hot day, he marched out his troops under a burning sun in a mountainous

area. Bewilderingly(令人困惑地) he lost the way. The journey was long and the sun was

scorching. After their fruitless and tiresome march, all voiced their great

dissatisfaction with the leadership of Cao Cao. They bitterly complained of

their great thirst. The antagonism(对抗) of the soldiers was growing fast and they

were on the verge of staging a mutiny(兵变). The subordinate officers were

helpless to cope with the situation.

Cao Cao, however, in the nick of time cleverly and treacherously gave

orders to his troops to march to the nearby plum trees for a rest and announced

that soldiers would be allowed to eat the juicy sour(酸的) fruit as much as they

desired.

At the thought of the sour fruit the soldiers complaint of great thirst as

well as the antagonistic feeling were quickly forgotten.

Based on the story the later generation formed the proverb "to quench ones

thirst by looking up at plums", to illustrate a case where one takes comfort in

believing that they have already attained that which was expected or

desired.

买椟还珠

A man from the state of Chu wanted to sell a precious pearl in the state of

Zheng. He made a casket(小箱，棺材) for the pearl out of the wood from a magnolia(木兰)

tree, which he fumigated(熏制) with spices. He studded the casket with pearls and

jade, ornamented it with red gems and decorated it with kingfisher(翠鸟) feathers.

A man of the state of Zheng bought the casket and gave him back the pearl.

Too luxuriant(丰富的，奢华的) decoration usually supersedes(取代) what really

counts. This man from Chu certainly knew how to sell a casket but he was no good

at selling his pearl. And the man of Zheng didnt know which is really

valuable.

叶公好龙

In the Spring and Autumn Period, there lived in Chu a person named Chu

Zhuliang, who addressed himself as "Lord Ye".

Its said that this Lord Ye was very fond of dragons. The walls had dragons

painted on them. The beams, pillars, doors and the windows were all carved with

them. As a result, his love for dragons was spread out. When the real dragon in

heaven heard of this Lord Ye, he was deeply moved. He decided to visit Lord Ye

to thank him.

You might think Lord Ye was very happy to see a real dragon. But, actually,

at very the sight of the creature, he was scared out of his wits and ran away as

fast as he could.

From then on, people knew that Lord Ye only loved pictures or carvings

which look like dragons, not the real thing.

美好的品德，是每个人必须拥有的。在我的心目中，拥有美好的品德是十分重要的，就像人需要空气一样，而且美德比空气更重要百倍千倍。

今天下午第二节课下课，同学们迫不及待地跑下楼，想飞快地冲向信息教室。大部分同学都踩着草坪抄小道走了。我疑惑不已，草坪上分明立着一块告示牌“青青的草，怕您的脚。”这写得很清楚，就是不要踩草坪呀！难道是同学们没有注意到吗？不是的，他们只是想少走些路！看着同学们接二连三地踩着草坪嘻嘻哈哈地走了，看着刚发芽的小草被践踏得不成样子，我的心如刀割一样疼痛。可是，我又没有权利管他们，也只好尽自己的一点儿微薄之力不去踩草坪了。我绕了一个大圈，虽然多走了几步路，却留下了美好的品质，也算值得了。

我绕过草坪之后，又有接二连三的同学跟着我也绕了一大圈，下午放学时，我依然是绕着那个大圈走出了校门。

美好的品德就是这样，不踩一片草坪，不干一件坏事。美好的品德就是这样，由点点滴滴的小事积累而成，希望我们都要做一个拥有美好品德的人哦！

品德是什么？品德是让我们心连心的桥梁；品德是什么？品德是让人们获得尊重的因由；品德还是什么？品德是让人间变得更加美好的力量。

我有一个关于品德的故事：有一天，我在上学的路上捡到了一支非常漂亮而又少见的钢笔，我想：这是别人的东西，不能自己偷要了。但是总不能就放到这儿不管呀！人们常说“拾金不昧”呢。可是又没人看见，再说了，我也没有这种钢笔……我正在犹豫不决时，突然有一个小女孩跑过来，她急匆匆地问：“你见过一支非常漂亮的钢笔吗？”我不由自主地把手上的笔放进口袋里，当什么事情也没发生过，心平气和地说：“对不起，我没看见。”之后，就赶紧转身走了。上课了，老师正好讲的就是关于拾金不昧的故事。我听完课之后，心想：别人可以做到，我为什么做不到呢？我一定要把钢笔归还给失主。于是我写了一篇寻物启事，并把这支钢笔的照片贴在了上面。很快，就有人来认领了，我一看，正是那个曾经询问过我钢笔的女孩，她很腼腆地笑了笑。我害羞地把笔还给了女孩，并且说：“对不起，我骗了你。”她说：“没关系，你是个善良的好女孩。”听了这话我如释重负，高兴地对她说：“谢谢你原谅了我，以后我一定会一直诚实、善良的。”

这件事情让我领悟到了两种品德，那就是拾金不昧和包容；这件事情也让我明白了品德是什么，那就是用自己的善良去感染周围，感染世界。

冰山难靠这则成语的意思是比喻依靠别人权势不能长久。

这个成语来源于《资治通鉴》，君辈倚杨右相如泰山，吾以为冰山耳！若皎日既出，君辈得无失所恃乎！

唐玄宗李隆基特别宠爱杨玉环，封她为贵妃。这下杨家便鸡犬升天了，她的堂兄杨国忠也官运亨通做了宰相，还兼领四十余个使官，大权在握，朝廷选任官吏都在他家里私下决定。

当时，陕西有一个进士，名叫张彖（tuan）没有机会作官。他的朋友们都劝他去拜见杨国忠，那样立刻就能升官发财。可是他始终不去，反倒对劝他的朋友说：你们都把杨国忠看得像泰山一样稳固，可是我以为他不过是一座冰山罢了。将来天下有了动乱，他就会垮掉，好比冰山遇到太阳化掉一样，到那时候你们就失掉靠山了。不久，安禄山起兵叛乱，攻下京城长安，杨国忠随同唐玄宗逃往四川，在马嵬驿，被士兵杀死。杨贵妃也被缢死，杨家这座靠山果然塌倒了。

出处：《史记.孔子世家》孔子晚而喜《易》，……读《易》韦编三绝。曰：“假我数年，若是，我于《易》则彬彬矣。”

释义：“韦”是熟牛皮；“韦编”指用牛皮绳编连起来的竹简书。“三”是概数，表示多次；“绝”是断的意思。孔子为读《易》而翻断了多次牛皮带子的简。后人用“韦编三绝”这个成语加以概括。用来形容读书刻苦勤奋。

故事：春秋时的书，主要是以竹子为材料制造的，把竹子破成一根根竹签，称为竹“简”，用火烘干后在上面写字。竹简有一定的长度和宽度，一根竹简只能写一行字，多则几十个，少则八九个。一部书要用许多竹简，这些竹简必须用牢固的绳子之类的东西编连起来才能阅读。像《易》这样的书，当然是由许许多多竹简编连起来的，因此有相当的重量。

孔丘花了很大的精力，把《易》全部读了一遍，基本上了解了它的内容。不久又读第二遍，掌握了它的基本要点。接着，他又读第三遍，对其中的精神、实质有了透彻的理解。在这以后，为了深入研究这部书，又为了给弟子讲解，他不知翻阅了多少遍。这样读夹读去，把串连竹简的牛皮带子也给磨断了几次，不得不多次换上新的再使用。即使读到了这样的地步，孔子还谦虚他说：“假如让我多活几年，我就可以完全掌握《易》的文与质了。”

春秋时期，齐国的大夫崔杼和庆封合谋杀了齐庄公，改立杵臼为君，史称齐景公。齐景公封崔杼为右相，庆封为左相。

庄公有两个忠诚的卫士，一个叫卢蒲癸，一个叫王何，在庄公遇害后都逃往国外。卢蒲癸在出逃前嘱咐弟弟卢蒲嫳说：“我出逃后，你要设法取得崔杼和庆封的信任，在适当的时机叫我回国，到时为庄公报仇。”

卢蒲癸走后，卢蒲嫳不负所嘱，当上了庆封的家臣。他很快发现，庆封名为左相却毫无实权，便利用崔杼几个儿子争夺继承权的矛盾，杀了崔杼一家，崔杼也自缢身亡。从此，大权便全落到庆封手里。

庆封感激卢蒲嫳，对他十分宠信。不久，庆封迷恋上了一个女子，把国政全部交给儿子庆舍。

卢蒲嫳极力劝说庆封，要他召回卢蒲癸，庆封答应了他。卢蒲癸终于回国，做了庆舍的侍卫。卢蒲癸勇猛过人，又故意奉承庆舍，很得庆舍的赏识，庆舍把自己的女儿庆姜嫁给了他。不久，卢蒲癸又说服庆舍召回王何，和他一起当侍卫。从此，卢蒲癸和王何加紧秘密活动，联络对庆氏不满的人，准备诛灭庆氏，为庄公报仇。

卢蒲癸的妻子庆姜见丈夫行动诡秘，问他在干些什么。卢蒲癸便把准备杀灭庆氏，为庄公报仇的事说了。庆姜很识大义，表示愿意帮助丈夫完成这一义举。

庆姜说到做到。卢蒲癸选在庆封出猎的那一天行动，庆姜说服父亲随同齐景公一起到太庙行祭礼，以便卢蒲癸等下手。举行祭礼时，卢蒲癸和王何突然执戈猛刺庆舍，庆舍垂死挣扎，用酒壶砸死了王何，卢蒲癸又领兵杀尽庆氏余党。庆封在出猎途中得到这个消息，带着出猎的士兵回来攻城，但城中防守严密，无法攻克，他只得逃到鲁国去了。

事后，有人问卢蒲癸说：“庆氏和卢氏都是姜氏的后裔，你怎么会娶同宗的庆姜为妻呢？”

卢蒲癸回答说：“庆舍不避同宗，要把女儿嫁给我，我为什么要避开呢?就像有人对《诗经》断章取义，来表达自己的意思，我也只取我所想要的，管什么同宗不同宗呢？”

“断章取义”这一成语是指不顾全篇文章或谈话的内容，孤立地取其中的一段或一句的意思，指引用与原意不符。

战国时期哲学家庄子的思想集道家思想之大成．庄子对名利非常淡泊，却喜好沉思，对各种事物都有自已独到的见解。一天，庄子和好友惠子同去濠水边游玩，只见不流缓缓，清澈见底，石缝之上，鱼儿悠闲地摆动着美丽的尾鳍。庄子不由地赞叹说：你看这些鱼儿出游从容，在水里多么快乐啊！惠子说：你不是鱼，怎么知道鱼的快乐呢？庄子反问道：你不是我，怎么知道我不晓得鱼的快乐呢？

惠子说：我不是你，不知道你的内心可你也不是鱼，怎能知道鱼的快乐呢？庄子回答说：因为我到了濠水桥上，看见鱼儿在从容不迫、自由自在地游，所以觉得鱼很快乐。这时风在吹，鸟在飞，水在流，庄子和惠子在辩论着，小鱼儿依然在从容不迫地悠游。人如果想和鱼儿一样自由快乐，从容不迫，就需要身体和心理都健康，这就需要我们培养健康的身心。

宋朝大书法家，大画家米芾的儿子米友仁（字元晖），家学渊源，也和他父亲一样，既写得一手好字，又长于作画，尤其非常喜爱古人的作品。有一次，他在别人的船上，看见王羲之真笔字帖，欢喜的什么似的，立即要拿一幅好画交换，主人不同意，他急得大叫，攀着船舷竟就往水里跳，幸亏别人很快把他抱住，才不致落水。他有一样很大的本颁，便是学会模仿古人的画品。他在涟水的时候，曾经向人借回一幅“松牛图”描摹。后来他把真本留下，拿摹本还给人，这人当时没有觉察出来。拿着走了。直至过了好多日才来讨还原本。米友仁问他怎么看得出来，那人回答说：“真本中的眼睛里面，有牧童的影子;而你还我的这一幅却没有。”可是米友仁模仿古人的画品，很少被人发觉他的模本是假的。他经常千方百计向人借古画描摹；而摹完以后，总是拿样本和真本一齐送给主人，请主人自己选择。由与他摹仿古画的技艺很精，把模本和真本模得一模一样，主人往往把模本当成真本收回去，米友仁便因此获得了许多名贵的真本古画。

米友仁是一个有才能的艺术家，值得人们敬仰，又是一个古画的爱好者和欣赏者，让人们更加知道古画的妙处和价值，可是他用那种摹仿的假本巧妙地换取别人真本的行为，却是叫人鄙弃和不耻的。所以有人把他这种用巧妙方法骗取别人真本古画的行为，叫做“巧偷豪夺”。后来的人又从此引伸成“巧取豪夺”这句成语，用来形容人以不正当的巧妙方法，攫取自己不应得的财物。“巧取”，骗取也;“豪夺”，抢占也。而用此种方法攫取财物，也往往利便又所得很多，故有“巧偷豪夺，故所得多多”见（“清波杂志”）之语，例如，以神物做幌子的神棍，常常巧立名目，假借做什么佛事，骗取无知的人的财物。攫取私有，这便是“巧取豪夺”了。
