古往今来，挫折像一条尾巴跟着我们人类。从荆轲刺秦王时遇到挫折到邓小平三起三落时遇到的挫折，从爱迪生发明电灯时遇到的挫折到爱因斯坦提出相对论时遇到的挫折，我不禁迷惑于挫折，思考起挫折来。现写《挫折四问》，算是我对挫折的思考。
Throughout the ages, setbacks follow us like a tail. From the setback of King Jingke"s assassination to the setback of Deng Xiaoping"s three ups and downs, from the setback of Edison"s invention of the electric lamp to the setback of Einstein"s theory of relativity, I can"t help being confused by the setback and thinking about it. Now writing "four questions about setbacks" is my reflection on setbacks.
第一问：挫折是什么？
First question: what is frustration?
查阅《现代汉语词典》，知道"挫折"的意思就是变相的失败。但不同的是，挫折是弱者眼中的大山，是强者眼中的沙粒，是懦弱者逃避的理由，是坚强奋斗者的阶梯。挫折在不同人的眼中有不同含义。
Looking up the modern Chinese dictionary, we can see that "frustration" means failure in disguise. But the difference is that frustration is the mountain in the eyes of the weak, the sand in the eyes of the strong, the reason for the coward to escape, and the ladder for the strong fighter. Setbacks have different meanings in different people"s eyes.
第二问：挫折真的存在吗？
The second question: does frustration really exist?
挫折当然存在。人越大好像越难以面对挫折，大人们说：小孩子哪里会知道挫折？其实不然，就像小孩子玩过家家一样，挫折在小孩子的眼里是透明的。孩子们说：爸妈不给买玩具是挫折，打架回家再被打一顿是挫折。有时我会问自己：挫折是否真的存在？在经历了白天与黑夜，经历了花开花谢之后，我明白了挫折的存在。它存在于我考试的失利中，存在于父母的不理解中，存在于友谊的破裂中。
Setbacks certainly exist. The bigger a person is, the more difficult it seems to face setbacks. Adults() say: where will children know about setbacks? In fact, it is not, just like children playing at home, frustration in the eyes of children is transparent. The children said: it"s a setback that parents don"t buy toys. It"s a setback to be beaten again when they fight home. Sometimes I ask myself: do setbacks really exist? After the day and night, the flowers bloom and fade, I understand the existence of setbacks. It exists in the failure of my exam, in the incomprehension of my parents, in the rupture of my friendship.
第三问：挫折与成功的界限在哪？
The third question: where is the boundary between frustration and success?
挫折与成功只在一线之间。要不然爱因斯坦怎么会说：我喜欢挫折，它是我走向成功的路标。纵观古今名人或巨人，哪一位成功的背后不是挫折在作铺垫？爱迪生经历挫折发明了电灯，居里夫人经历了一个又一个挫折才找到了镭元素，他们之所以成功是因为他们敢于面对挫折，敢于向挫折挑战。
Frustration and success are only in the first line. How else would Einstein say: I like setbacks, it is my road to success. Looking at ancient and modern celebrities or giants, which one is not behind the success of setbacks in the foreshadowing? Edison experienced setbacks and invented electric light. Madame Curie experienced setbacks one after another before finding radium element. The reason why they succeed is that they dare to face setbacks and challenge them.
第四问：挫折给我什么启示？
The fourth question: what does frustration give me?
读了上面的材料，我认为我对挫折有了新的理解和认识，那就是：受挫折的过程往往就是获得真知的过程。走过崎岖小路，才能真正体味生活的欢乐；
穿过茫茫迷雾，才能深切感受阳光的明媚。不经风雨，怎见彩虹；
不吃一堑，难长一智!……
Reading the above materials, I think I have a new understanding and understanding of setbacks, that is: the process of frustration is often the process of getting real knowledge. Through the rugged path, we can truly appreciate the joy of life; through the vast fog, we can deeply feel the sunshine. Without wind and rain, how can we see a rainbow
屈原曾作《九问》，我今天写的《挫折九问》为我的人生指明了方向。我明白了什么是挫折，我再也不会害怕挫折，我知道了挫折的真正内涵--获得真知。最后我还要说一句：道路是曲折的，但前途是光明的。
Qu Yuan once wrote "nine questions", and today I wrote "nine questions of setbacks" which pointed out the direction of my life. I have learned what setbacks are, and I will never be afraid of them again. I have learned the true meaning of setbacks - to get true knowledge. Finally, I would like to say that the road is tortuous, but the future is bright.
