Let $R=\{a_0+a_1X+\cdots+a_nX^n\;|\;a_0\in\mathbb{Z},a_1,a_2,\dots ,a_n\in\mathbb{Q}, n\in\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}\}$ and $I=\{a_1X+\cdots+a_nX^n\;|\;a_1,a_2,\dots ,a_n\in\mathbb{Q}, n\in\mathbb{Z}^+\}$.
How to see $I$ is not finitely generated as an $R$-module?
Put more succinctly:
Show the $X$-coefficients of a putative generating set for $M$ would generate $\Bbb Q$ as a $\Bbb Z$-module.
(The intuition here is that "mod $X^2$" we see that $R$ acts on $M$ just like $\Bbb Z$ acts on $\Bbb Q X$.)
