I see an ant and an axe. 

春秋时期，宋国有一个农夫，他性子很急，他担心自己田里的禾苗长不高，就天天到田边去看。可是，一连好几天过去了，禾苗一点儿也没有往上长。他在田边焦急地转来转去，自言自语地说:“我得想个办法帮助它们长高。”

有一天，他终于想出了办法，急忙奔到田里, 把禾苗一棵棵地往上拔, 从大清早一直忙到太阳落山，累得筋疲力尽。他回到家里气喘吁吁地说:“今天可把我累坏了，但力气总算没白费, 禾苗都长高了一大截。”

他儿子一听，心想居然还有这样的好事，连忙跑到田边去看，却只见满田的秧苗都枯死了。

这就是成语“拔苗助长”的由来，后人用它来比喻不管事物的发展变化规则，急于求成，只会将事情弄糟。
