- Test one unit.
是故夫至治之國，

Computed from this exact witness · Contextual interpretation awaits editorial review. The guide is a set of reading prompts, not a translation. Sources & methods
Make this passage yours.
Use the reading guide above, build your interpretation, then test what you can recover. Your notes and schedule stay on this device.
1 · Explain it in your own words
2 · Recover the wording
Select a source unit, then hide the passage and reconstruct it. This checks textual recall, not understanding.
3 · Explain, then revisit
Without the source in front of you, explain the passage’s main point and one choice you made in reading it. Then reopen the text and check the evidence.
Rate your understanding yourself. These reminders use a simple schedule; they do not certify mastery.

韓非子 · 外儲說右上第三十四其情者也之。吳起之出愛妻，文公之斬顛頡，皆違其情者也。故能使人彈疽者，必其忍痛者也。
韓非子 · 用人第二十七至治之國罪生甲，禍歸乙，伏怨乃結。故至治之國，有賞罰而無喜怒。
韓非子 · 功名第二十八至治之國故曰：至治之國，君若桴，臣若鼓，技若車，事若馬。故人有餘力易於應，而技有餘巧便於事。
