Example: A levee of a thousand miles collapsed in an ant nest
One year, there was a village near the bank of the Yellow River. In order to prevent the yellow river, farmers built a towering long embankment. One day, an old farmer happened to find that the ant nest suddenly increased a lot. The old farmer wondered whether these ant nests would affect the safety of the long beach. He was going back to the village to report that he met his son on the way. The old farmer's son said disapprovingly, are you still afraid of a few little ants on a sturdy long embankment? Pull the old farmer to the fields together. It was stormy that night, and the water in the Yellow River soared. The roaring river seeped out from the ant nest, then sprayed, and finally the dike was flooded.
2. A little miss is a thousand miles away.
Example: On August 23, 1967, when the Soyuz-1 spacecraft of the Soviet Union was returning to the atmosphere, it suddenly had a vicious accident-the deceleration parachute could not be opened. After studying, the central leadership of the Soviet Union decided to broadcast the accident live to the whole country. When the announcer of the TV station announced in a heavy tone that the spaceship would crash in two hours and the audience would witness the news of the martyrdom of astronaut Komarov, the whole country was immediately shocked and people were immersed in great grief. On TV, the audience saw the calm image of astronaut Komarov. He said to his mother with a smile, "Mom, I can see your image clearly here, including every gray hair on your head. Can you see me clearly?" "Yes, you can see clearly. Son, everything is fine, don't worry! " At this time, Komarov's daughter also appeared on the TV screen. She was only 12 years old. Komarov said, "Daughter, don't cry." "I don't cry ..." My daughter was sobbing, but she choked back her grief and said, "Dad, you are a Soviet hero. I want to tell you that a hero's daughter will live like a hero!" Komarov told his daughter, "When you study, you should take every decimal point seriously. What happened to Soyuz-1 today was because a decimal point was ignored in the ground inspection ... "Time passed by minute by minute, only seven minutes before the spaceship crashed. Komalov waved to the national TV audience and said, "My fellow citizens, please allow me to say goodbye to you in this vast space." Even a decimal point error will lead to a tragic farewell that can never be remedied.
3. One careless move will lose the game.
Example: In a Go game, Chang Hao, who had high hopes, failed to continue his winning streak. Today, he was defeated by South Korean teenager Li Shishi and had to face the fact that he lost to his opponent for 11 times in a row. In the whole game, what led to Chang Hao's defeat was a blunder criticized by many experts and coaches: the second way didn't "stand".
