囫囵吞枣

有人yǒu rén说shuō：梨lí对duì牙yá好hào，但dàn吃chī多duō了liǎo伤shāng脾pí；红hóng枣zǎo补bǔ脾pí，但dàn吃chī多duō了liǎo伤shāng牙yá。

Someone said: 'Pears are good for the teeth but hurt the spleen; dates help the spleen but hurt the teeth.'

一yī个人gè rén听tīng了liǎo说shuō：这zhè好hào办bàn！吃chī梨lí只zhī嚼jiáo不bù咽yàn，吃chī枣zǎo只zhī吞tūn不bù嚼jiáo。

A listener said: 'Easy! I'll chew pears but never swallow, and swallow dates without chewing.'

别人bié ren笑xiào他tā：枣zǎo整个zhěng gè吞tūn下去xià qù，怎么zěn me消化xiāo huà呢ne？

People laughed: 'Swallow a date whole, how will you digest it?'

读书dú shū也yě是shì一样yī yàng，不bù加jiā理解lǐ jiě，囫hú囵lún吞tūn枣zǎo，是shì学xué不到bù dào真zhēn本事běn shi的de。

Reading is the same: swallowed whole without understanding, it teaches nothing.
