英語(yǔ)短篇小故事故事

第一篇: The wolf and the sheep

A wolf had been badly wounded by dogs.He lay sick and maimed in his lair.He felt very hungry and thirsty.When a sheep passed by, he asked him to fetch some water from the stream.“If you bring me the water,” he said, “I will find means to get some food.”

“Yes,” said the sheep, “if I bring you the water, you would undoubtedly make me your food.” 狼和羊

●狼被狗所咬，傷勢(shì)很嚴(yán)重，痛苦地躺在巢穴里，不能外出覓食。

●他感到又餓又渴，這時(shí)，他看見(jiàn)一只羊，便請(qǐng)求他到附近的小河里為他取一點(diǎn)水來(lái)。

●“你給我一點(diǎn)水解渴”，他說(shuō)，“我就能自己去尋找食物了?！?/p>

●“是呀”，羊回答說(shuō)，“如果我給你送水喝，那么我就會(huì)成為你的食物?！?/p>

寓意: 謊言是經(jīng)不起推敲的，它很容易被人們識(shí)破。

第二篇: 狐貍和葡萄

One hot summer day a fox was walking through an orchard.He stopped before a bunch of grapes.They were ripe and juicy.“I'm just feeling thirsty,” he thought.So he backed up a few paces, got a running start, jumped up, but could not reach the grapes.He walked back.One, two, three, he jumped up again, but still, he missed the grapes.The fox tried again and again, but never succeeded.At last he decided to give it up.He walked away with his nose in the air, and said“I am sure they are sour.”

●一個(gè)炎熱的夏日，狐貍走過(guò)一個(gè)果園，他停在一大串熟透而多汁的葡萄前。

●狐貍想：“我正口渴呢。”于是他后退了幾步，向前一沖，跳起來(lái)，卻無(wú)法夠到葡萄。

●狐貍后退又試。一次，兩次，三次，但是都沒(méi)有得到葡萄。

●狐貍試了一次又一次，都沒(méi)有成功。最后，他決定放棄，他昂起頭,邊走邊說(shuō)：“葡萄還沒(méi)有成熟，我敢肯定它是酸的?！?/p>

寓意: 在經(jīng)歷了許多嘗試而不能獲得成功的時(shí)候，有些人往往故意輕視成功，以此來(lái)尋求心理安慰。

第三篇

The crow and the pitcher A crow felt very thirsty.He looked for water everywhere.Finally, he found a pitcher.But there was not a lot of water in the pitcher.His beak could not reach it.He tried again and again, but still could not touch the water.When he was about to give up, an idea came to him.He took a pebble and dropped it into the pitcher.Then he took another and dropped it in.Gradually, the water rose, and the crow was able to drink the water.口渴的烏鴉

●一只烏鴉口渴了，到處找水喝。終于，他找到了一個(gè)大水罐。

●然而，水罐里面的水并不多，他的尖嘴夠不到水面，他試了一次又一次，都沒(méi)有成功。

●就在他想放棄的時(shí)候，他突然想到一個(gè)主意。烏鴉叼來(lái)了一塊小石子投到水罐里，接著又叼了一塊又一塊石頭放進(jìn)去。

●漸漸地，水面升高了。烏鴉高興地喝到了水。

寓意: 有些東西雖然看起來(lái)微不足道，但如果積少成多，便會(huì)帶來(lái)很大變化。

第四篇:青蛙和井

●兩只青蛙住在沼澤里。在一個(gè)炎熱的夏季，沼澤干涸了，因此他們不得不離開去尋找新的濕地。

●他們很快發(fā)現(xiàn)一口深井。

●其中一只向下看了看對(duì)另一只說(shuō)：“這是個(gè)涼爽的好地方，就住這里吧?！?/p>

●而另一只較明智，它說(shuō)：“別著急，朋友，如果這口井也干了的話,我們?cè)趺闯鰜?lái)呢？”

寓意: 凡事應(yīng)該首先考慮周到，然后再付諸行動(dòng)。

第五篇:

The cage bird and the bat

A bird was confined in a cage outside a window.She often sang at night when all other birds were asleep.One night a bat came.He asked the bird why she was silent by day and sang only at night.The bird answered, “Last year when I was singing in the daytime, a bird catcher heard my voice and caught me in his net.Since then I have never sung by day.”

The bat replied, “But it is useless to do this now that you have become a prisoner.” Then he flew away.金絲雀與蝙蝠

●掛在窗口籠里的金絲雀，經(jīng)常在鳥兒睡著的夜里歌唱。

●一天晚上，蝙蝠來(lái)了，飛過(guò)來(lái)問(wèn)她為什么白天安靜無(wú)聲，夜里卻要歌唱。

●金絲雀回答說(shuō)：“去年我在白天唱歌時(shí)，捕鳥人聽到我的歌聲抓住了我。從此，我再也不在白天唱歌了?！?/p>

●蝙蝠說(shuō)：“你現(xiàn)在才懂得謹(jǐn)慎已沒(méi)用了，你若在變?yōu)榍敉街熬投茫窃摱嗪醚?！”說(shuō)完就飛走了。

寓意: 我們應(yīng)該在危險(xiǎn)發(fā)生之前就提高警覺(jué)，因?yàn)槲ｋU(xiǎn)一旦發(fā)生，我們?cè)僭鯓有⌒囊矝](méi)有用了。

第五篇：英語(yǔ)小故事

A long time ago in China lived the Jade Emperor.It was his birthday.He wanted to measure time to know how old he was.All the animals arrived.The Emperor decided to have a race to give a name to each year of the Chinese Zodiac.The rat and the cat couldn't swim very well.“Can you take us across the river?” “Yes, jump and quick!”

They swam across the river.Then the rat pushed the cat into the water and jumped on to land.”Well done, Rat!The first year will be the Year of the Rat and the second will be the Year of the OX.“

”Look!Here's the tiger.He's very tired.The third year will be the Year of the Tiger.“

”The rabbit can't swim but he's very clever.The fourth year will be the Year of the Rabbit.“

”Why are you late, Dragon? You can fly!“ ”I had to make some rain for thirsty people to drink.“ ”Well done!The fifth year is the Year of the Dragon.“

”What's this? I can hear a horse.No, it's a snake.So the snake has the sixth year.“

”Well done!It is good to see you working together!The goat is eighth, the monkey is ninth and rooster is tenth.“

“Sorry I'm late.The water is clean and I needed a bath.” “ The eleventh is the Year of the Dog.”

These are some crazy and weird superstitions.Feel free to add some more, I know there are so many of them in this world。第一條：數(shù)字“13” 01 The number 13.這只是個(gè)數(shù)字。但是，每逢13號(hào)的禮拜五，人們普遍都會(huì)焦慮。很多機(jī)場(chǎng)沒(méi)有13號(hào)登機(jī)口(好吧，你們真的以為12A登機(jī)口的乘客們不會(huì)發(fā)覺(jué)嗎？)很多賓館也沒(méi)有13樓。It’s just a number.Yet, people tweak on Friday the 13th.Many airports don’t have a gate #13.(Like the folks at 12A won’t figure it out。)Many hotels don’t have a floor #13.人們告訴我，這個(gè)關(guān)于數(shù)字13的迷信來(lái)自叛徒猶大。他是那個(gè)壞信徒，是那個(gè)在“最后的晚餐”中第13個(gè)坐下的人。我覺(jué)得與其迷信13，不如迷信“壞信徒會(huì)帶來(lái)厄運(yùn)”，這樣更理智些。

I was always told that the superstition is based on the idea that Judas, the bad disciple, was the 13th man to sit down to the table at The Last Supper.I think a more rational superstition would be to fear bad disciples。

第二條：在窗邊掛一只橡果可以防止被閃電擊中。02 An acorn at the window will keep lightning out。唔…真是神奇的橡果啊。That is some acorn.第三條：在新球棒上吐口口水，可以保持好運(yùn)。

03 Spit on a new bat before using it for the first time to make it lucky.好惡心，好惡心，好惡心！在09年春，由于害怕豬流感的傳播，全美的高中禁止運(yùn)動(dòng)員們?cè)谫惡笪帐?。我很肯定他們也同樣禁止了往球棒上吐口水這事兒。

Gross.Gross.Gross.In the spring of 2009, in fear of the Swine Flu, high schools all over the country forbade their athletes from shaking hands after the game.Pretty sure “not spitting on the bat” was implied.此外，從基本物理學(xué)的角度來(lái)講，一個(gè)被口水潤(rùn)滑過(guò)的球棒的摩擦力更小，因此擊球打滑的幾率更大了…好吧，我真是精神病人思維廣啊。

And speaking in terms of basic physics, having a lubricated bat makes for less friction, and therefore, slippery balls … okay, now I’m just out of control.第四條：為了寫這篇文章，我得先去拿個(gè)蝴蝶研究的博士學(xué)位： 04 In order to write this article, I had to get a Ph.D.in butterflies… 蝴蝶出現(xiàn)得比以往早，預(yù)示著天氣不錯(cuò)。

The early appearance of butterflies indicates fair weather.如果第一只蝴蝶是黃色的，那會(huì)是晴天。If the first butterfly is yellow, it will be sunny weather.如果第一只蝴蝶是白色的，那會(huì)是雨天。If the first butterfly is white, it will be rainy summer。如果第一只蝴蝶是白色的，會(huì)有人去世。If the first butterfly is white, someone will die。如果第一只蝴蝶是紅色的，你會(huì)很健康。If the first butterfly is red, you will be healthy。

如果飛來(lái)了一只白蝴蝶，預(yù)示著夏天來(lái)了。If a white butterfly comes, summer follows.如果一只白蝴蝶從西南方向飛來(lái)，那就要下雨了。If a white butterfly flies from the southwest, expect rain。如果蝴蝶在圍欄或樹枝的下方飛舞，預(yù)示著快下雨了。

If butterflies are found hanging from the underside of rails or branches, it’s going to rain。如果發(fā)現(xiàn)它們?cè)谛渲ι戏剑f(shuō)明不會(huì)下雨。If they are on the top of small branches, it will not rain。

如果第一只蝴蝶是深色的，雷雨很快要來(lái)了。If the first butterfly is dark, it means thunderstorms。如果第一只蝴蝶是黃色的，有人快生孩子了。

If the first butterfly is yellow, someone is going to give birth。如果一只白蝴蝶進(jìn)了家里，繞著你不停飛，你將要死去。If a white butterfly enters your house and flies around you, you will die.如果一只蛾子落在新生兒的母親身上，這個(gè)小孩很快便會(huì)死去。If a moth lands on the mother of a newborn, the baby will die.如果一只蝴蝶飛進(jìn)你家，你認(rèn)識(shí)的某人將要死去。

If a butterfly flies into your house, someone you know will die。如果一只蝴蝶飛進(jìn)你家，說(shuō)明某人要結(jié)婚了。

If a butterfly flies into your house, someone will get married.如果你抓住了一只蝴蝶，你會(huì)被車撞死。If you capture a butterfly, you will be struck dead。

如果你在夜晚見(jiàn)到蝴蝶，便將會(huì)死去。If you see a butterfly at night, you will die。呼，寫完了！很“通俗易懂”吧，嗯？ There!Simple, right? 第五條：如果船上有貓，預(yù)示著會(huì)有好運(yùn)。05 A cat onboard a ship is considered to bring luck。

我曾經(jīng)在船上住過(guò)。貓絕對(duì)是個(gè)累贅。船上的角角落落都是它藏身、大小便的地方；甚至連機(jī)械裝置都被破壞成了一片片的。有誰(shuí)會(huì)愿意負(fù)責(zé)清理那些垃圾桶？垃圾桶可不是什么吉祥玩意兒。

I used to live on a ship.A cat would have been a real drag.All of those spaces to hide in, poop in, pee in? All of that machinery to get torn to pieces in? And who exactly would have been in charge of cleaning the litter boxes? Litter boxes are never lucky。第六條：如果三個(gè)人一起拍照，中間的那個(gè)會(huì)最先死掉。

06 If three people are photographed together, the one in the middle will die first。我不知道它是真是假，但這條讓我毛骨悚然。

I can’t rationalize it, but this one just gives me the shivers。

第七條：經(jīng)過(guò)墓地的時(shí)候，如果你把雙手插在兜里，便能保護(hù)你的父母。

07 If you stick your hands in your pocket while walking past a graveyard, it will protect your parents。

我不禁好奇：假如我把里兜翻出來(lái)會(huì)發(fā)生什么？或者，假如我脫掉褲子搖搖手臂，又會(huì)發(fā)生些啥？

Makes me wonder what happens if I turn my pockets inside out.Or, take off my pants and wave my arms around.第八條：搬家的時(shí)候不要帶走掃帚，它會(huì)帶來(lái)厄運(yùn)。把它扔了，買個(gè)新的。

08 Never take a broom along when you move.It is bad luck.Throw it out and buy a new one。這不是常識(shí)嗎？用過(guò)的掃帚很臟，沒(méi)法跟亞麻制品放一起啊。這就跟打包帶走用過(guò)的垃圾桶一樣好笑。再說(shuō)，一把新掃帚只需要兩美元。

Isn’t that common sense? A used broom is kind of a nasty thing to box up with the linens.Like packing up used trash cans.A new broom costs like two dollars。第九條：如果蠟燭熄滅，說(shuō)明附近有邪惡靈魂。09 If a candle blows out, evil spirits are nearby?；蛘咭部赡苤皇怯嘘囷L(fēng)。Or, there’s a draft.第十條：用一根火柴點(diǎn)燃3根香煙，會(huì)帶來(lái)厄運(yùn)。10 It is bad luck to light three cigarettes with the same match.嗯沒(méi)錯(cuò)。這個(gè)厄運(yùn)的名字叫“癌癥”。Yeah it is.And that bad luck is called cancer.第十一條：當(dāng)你站在一個(gè)圈內(nèi)，邪惡的靈魂便傷害不到你。11 Evil spirits can’t harm you when you stand inside a circle.哦，難怪有些人會(huì)戴著呼啦圈在街上走來(lái)走去??！

Oh, that explains all those people walking up and down the street wearing hula hoops。第十二條：如果撿起的硬幣反面朝上，則會(huì)帶來(lái)厄運(yùn)；正面朝上會(huì)帶來(lái)好運(yùn)。12 It’s bad luck to pick up a coin if it’s tails side up.Good luck comes if it’s heads up。在當(dāng)前經(jīng)濟(jì)形勢(shì)下，就算會(huì)帶來(lái)厄運(yùn)我也不會(huì)放過(guò)地上那個(gè)硬幣的。In this economy, a little bad luck is worth the nickel.第十三條：呃，我是不是該命名它為第12A條？ 13 – oops, should I have called this one #12A? 家里發(fā)現(xiàn)蟋蟀，會(huì)有好運(yùn)。

A cricket in the house brings good luck.也會(huì)有蟋蟀糞便啊親。It will also bring cricket poop。

第十四條：假如你右手掌發(fā)癢，說(shuō)明很快就能獲得一筆錢；假如你左手掌癢，說(shuō)明你很快要付出去一筆錢。If the palm of your right hand itches, it means you will soon be getting money.If the palm of your left hand itches, it means you will soon be paying out money.假如你兩只手都癢，那我建議你還是去醫(yī)院檢查一下吧。

If the palm of either of your hands is itching, you might want to get that checked。第十五條：如果愛(ài)人送了一把小刀作為禮物，說(shuō)明愛(ài)情很快會(huì)結(jié)束。15 A knife as a gift from a lover means that the love will soon end。誰(shuí)會(huì)送自己愛(ài)人一把刀??！送玫瑰送巧克力不都行嘛？真是有毛病?。ho gives their lover a knife for a gift? What happened to roses or chocolate? Creepy!還有： and 分娩的時(shí)候，在枕頭下放把刀能減輕分娩疼痛。

A knife placed under the bed during childbirth will ease the pain of labor.如果我是那個(gè)孕婦，我會(huì)更緊張的。

If I were the impregnator, I would be very nervous。第十六條：湯太咸，說(shuō)明那個(gè)廚子戀愛(ài)了。16 Salty soup is a sign that the cook is in love。

隨便走進(jìn)一家百貨店，隨便拿起一個(gè)罐頭看看它的鹽分含量吧。你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)世界簡(jiǎn)直充滿了愛(ài)了！

Check the sodium content on any can in any grocery store and feel good about how much love there is in the world。

第十七條：如果三只海鷗一起從你頭上直直飛過(guò)，預(yù)示著死亡很快會(huì)降臨。17 Three seagulls flying together, directly overhead, are a warning of death soon to come.也預(yù)示著你頭頂會(huì)有一泡屎。Or poop on your head。

第十八條：打噴嚏的時(shí)候，用手捂住你的嘴，可以防止靈魂外逃。Place a hand in front of your mouth when sneezing so that your soul cannot escape。現(xiàn)在他們又叫我們往胳肢窩里打噴嚏了。我真為那些被噴進(jìn)胳肢窩的靈魂感到惋惜。Now they tell us to sneeze into our armpits.I’ve got to feel sorry for any soul that gets sneezed into an armpit。

第十九條：右手掌有幾個(gè)“X”，預(yù)示著你會(huì)有幾個(gè)孩子。The number of Xs in the palm of your right hand is the number of children you will have。我數(shù)了一下。嗯，我會(huì)有47個(gè)孩子。I counted.I will have 47 children。

第二十條：新娘必須被抱著進(jìn)入洞房，因?yàn)橐撬恿?，那可就大難臨頭了。20 A new bride must be carried over the threshold because it’s bad luck if she falls。呃，我一直以為這是因?yàn)樾履镏昂忍嗔?，才被抱進(jìn)去的。I always thought it was because she was hammered from the reception。
