杞人忧天

春秋战国时期,杞国有个人喜欢胡思乱想。

一天,他竟然担忧天会塌下来,地会陷下去,自己无处存身。这个人越想越害怕,便整天愁眉苦脸,坐立不安,睡不好觉,吃不下饭。

后来,有个人就去开导他,那个杞国人听后,才放下了心。

成语杞人忧天讥笑那些没有必要或毫无根据的忧虑。

Fear is often greater than the danger. 

​

In the Spring and Autumn Period (春秋时期,770-476 BC), in the State of Qi there was a man who always let his imagination run away with him.

​

One day he even worried that the sky would fall on his head. He was so worried that he could neither eat nor sleep.

​

Later, someone persuade him that his fears were groundless.

​

This idioms satirizes those who worry unnecessarily.
