He plays a very beautiful song, but the cow doesn't stop eating the grass. It doesn't hear the music at all. Gong Mingyi plays more songs, but the cow only moves its mouth. Gong Mingyi feels sad. He now understands: it is not the cow's fault（过错、错误）just plays the wrong music to the wrong listener. 对牛弹琴 有个人叫公明仪，他很会弹琴。一天，他抱着琴来到田野里，对着一头牛弹起来。 他弹的曲子美妙极了，可牛只顾低头吃草，一点也没听见。公明仪又弹了好几首，牛只是动动嘴。 他很失望，这才明白：不是牛的错，是他把音乐弹给了听不懂的听众。 Reading Comprehension 阅读理解 Ⅰ.
