Ask for help from Wang Anshi s translation of Material Theory !!

The short-sighted people of the world say, "If a person has extraordinary power in himself, like an awl in a sac, its tip will immediately burrow outward, so there is no such thing as a person who has power but does not show it." "The guy only saw the awl in the bag, but apparently not the horse in the stable.

Bad horses mingle with good horses, drink water and eat grass in the same way, neighing and stomping hooves and gnashing teeth, and those who look for the skill of horses are very wrong. Wait until it pulls the heavy car, walks the smooth road, does not need to be repeatedly spurred, does not make people strenuous to drive, the reins shake, and the journey of a thousand miles has been completed. At this time, let the inferior horses together, so that even if the inferior horses knock down the wheels, tear the reins, and injure their muscles and bones, and chase after them day and night, they will not be able to catch up, and then the good horses and the bad horses can be distinguished.

I translated it myself, and some of it was paraphrased, so try not to compare it word by word.

Only those who are deceived in the world say, "A person who has a special talent in his body, just like an awl in a cloth bag, the tip of which is immediately revealed, is not a person who has no talent and cannot see it." "I just saw the awl in the sack, but I didn't see the horse in the stable.

Bad horses and good horses mingle, drinking water and eating coarse grains, neighing and biting each other, trying to see which horse is different from the others. When it reaches the point where it tows a heavy cart and walks on uneven roads, it does not need to be whipped many times or driven many times, as long as it pulls its reins, it is already thousands of miles away. At this time, let the bad horse rush with it, and even if the wheel of the rook is overturned, the reins are broken, and the bones are damaged, and the day and night are chased after it, it is too far away to catch up, and then there will be a difference between the good horse and the bad horse.

Translation: If you want to be competent, you don't lose your ranks, you don't take ridiculous measures.

Material: Wang Anshi (excerpt).

Original text: The husband and worker are also the industry, and they must first temper their tools, measure their materials, and then devote themselves to the work of the few. For the sake of the country, the saint must first select his talents, practice his name and truth, and then let him do things to help.

Therefore, the way of taking people, the urgent task of the world, the king of the literature since ancient times, who does not intend to do it? However, in the meantime, there are those who win souls, those who lose their warriors cannot be without shame, there are those who are competent, and those who are falsely accused cannot be without blame. If you want to be competent, not to lose your ranks, not to make mistakes, it is advisable to try the family law and the scribe's class notes as discussed by Han Zuoxiong.

Translation: The worker's profession must first temper his tools, choose his talents, and then use them with little effort. For the state, the saint must first select his meritocracy, train and evaluate the name and reality, and then use it to succeed.

Therefore, the way of employing people, the top priority of society, the monarch who has been kept since ancient times, who is not interested in this? However, there can be people between them, people who have lost cannot be without, competent people who are related, and people who have been wrongly elected cannot be without. If you want to get someone else competent, you don't lose your morale, and you don't have to do ridiculous movesIt should be obtained in accordance with Han Zuoxiong's suggestion of the student examination system and the civil service evaluation form.

We must want to get competent talents, not to lose talents, and not to make mistakes in selecting ......(It should be like what Zuo Xiong of the Han Dynasty said, "Confucian students take the Han Confucian scriptures, and the officials in charge of documents and laws test the knowledge of official documents", which can be regarded as the right selection of talents.) ）
