东汉的开国名将冯异，人称“大树将军”。他为人谦退不伐，在路上遇到别的

将军，总是让自己的马车避开；别人讨论军功，他却避坐在大树下，不去和别人吹
牛。正是这种谦逊，以及他对军队严格的管理，才使得每位军人都对他充满了敬仰，
纷纷转投他的帐下。

那我们如何去向孟之反和冯异将军学习呢？我们要注意生活中的小细节，扪心

自问：是否总以为自己什么都懂就不用听课了？是否在别人指出自己的问题时满不
在乎？谦逊不仅能避免大错误和其带来的失落感，更能调节气氛，顾及他人的自尊
心。这不是一举两得吗？（孙一涵）

英译

Confucius remarked of a chivalrous public character of the time, saying, “He was

a man who never would boast. On one occasion, when the troops among whom he was,
took to flight, he slowly brought up the rear; and when they had approached the city gate

to which they were retreating, he whipped his horse and was the last man to enter the
gate, remarking, simply, ‘It was not courage which kept me behind. But you see — my

horse would not go!’”
