How Kangaroo got his Tail
Based on an Australian Aboriginal Legend
A long time ago, some animals looked different to the way they look now. Kangaroos had no tails and wombats had high, round heads.
Mirram the Kangaroo and Warreen the Wombat were good friends. They lived together in a hut that Warreen had built from tree bark.
They liked being with each other, but Mirram liked to sleep outside at night and he made fun of Warreen who always wanted to sleep inside.

How the Bear Lost his Tail
retold by Sanjit
Bear with tailThis is the story of Bear's tail. I've heard it told in Germany, and in North America by the Iroquois Indians.
A long time ago, Bear had a beautiful, long, furry tail. He thought it was really cool. He laid it out behind him and people had to walk round it.
He asked everyone: "Don't you think my tail is the most beautiful tail you've ever seen?"
People thought Bear was very vain, but they were frightened of his big claws and didn't want to make him angry

Jingwei Determines to Fill up the Sea
On Fajiu Hill grew a lot of mulberry trees. Among them lived a bird which looked like a crow, but had a colourful head, a white bill and two red claws. Its call sounded like its name: Jingwei. The bird was said to be Emperor Yandi's youngest daughter, who, while playing on the East Sea, had been drowned and never returned. She had turned into Jingwei, and the bird would often carry bits of twigs and stones all the way from the west mountains to the East Sea to fill it up.

半人半島的塞壬姐妹們坐在一片花叢里，唱著盎惑人心的歌，甜美的歌聲把過往的船只引向該島，然后撞上礁石船毀人亡。過往的海員和船只都受到迷惑走向毀滅，無一幸免。
奧德修斯遵循女神喀耳斯的忠告。為了對付塞壬姐妹，他采取了謹慎的防備措施。
船只還沒駛到能聽到歌聲的地方，奧德修斯就令人把他拴在桅桿上，并吩咐手下用蠟把他們的耳朵塞住。他還告誡他們通過死亡島時不要理會他的命令和手勢。
不久石島就進入了他們的視線。奧德修斯聽到了迷人的歌聲。
歌聲如此令人神往，他絕望地掙扎著要解除束縛，并向隨從叫喊著要他們駛向正在繁花茂盛的草地上唱歌的海妖姐妹，但沒人理他。海員們駕駛船只一直向前，直到最后再也聽不到歌聲。
這時他們才給奧德修斯松綁，取出他們耳朵中的蠟。這次塞壬海妖們算是白唱了歌。
三姐妹中的老大帕耳塞洛珀深深地愛慕著奧德修斯。當他的船只走過后，她就投海自盡了。

黃昏時分，他感到饑餓，于是還是嬰孩的海爾墨斯離開了他的搖籃去找食物吃。他碰巧看見阿波羅的牛在草地里吃草，于是他偷走了許多牛，并將樹枝綁在牛腳上，讓腳印變得模糊不清。
他殺了其中兩頭牛，美餐了一頓。然后悄然地回到他媽媽的房里，爬上床。
當阿波羅發現牛少了，來質問他時，海爾墨斯佯作不知。憤怒不已的太陽神把他拖到奧林波斯山上，告他偷竊并責令將牛如數還給主人。
為了平息這件事，小海爾墨斯將他用烏龜殼做的琴送給阿波羅。阿波羅得到這件禮物非常高興，并送給他的小兄弟一支魔棍，這支魔棍可以化解敵對力量。

7.簡短的英語童話故事
The House of 1000 Mirrors 千鏡之屋 Long ago in a small, faraway village, there was a place known as the House of 1000 Mirrors. A small, happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit. When he arrived, he hounced happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house. He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1000 great smiles just as warm and firendly. As he left the House, he thought to himself, "This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit it often." In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door. When he saw the 1000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself, "That is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again." All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you see in the faces of the people you meet？ 很久以前的一個很遠的小村莊里，有一個以"千鏡屋"而著名的地方。
一個樂觀的小狗聽說了這個地方并決定去參觀。當來到這個地方，他蹦蹦跳歡恰快的上了臺階，來到房門口，他高高豎起耳朵，歡快地搖著尾巴，從門口往里張望，他驚奇地看到有1000只歡樂的小狗像他一樣快的搖尾巴。
他燦爛地微笑著，回報他的是1000張熱情，友好的燦爛笑臉。離開時他心想："這是一個精彩的地主，我一定要經常來參觀。
" 在這個村里還有另一只想參觀"千鏡屋"的小狗，他不及第一只小狗樂觀，他慢吞吞地爬上臺階，然后耷拉著腦袋往屋子里看。一看到有1000只小狗不友好地盯著他，他便開始沖他們狂吠，鏡中的1000只小狗也沖著他狂吠，把他給嚇壞了，他在離開時心想："這是一個恐怖的地方，我再也不會來了。
" 世界上所有的臉都是鏡子，在你所遇見的人的臉上你看到反射出來的是什么？ 遙遠的古代，人們心中的美好愿望往往能夠變成現實。就在那個令人神往的時代，曾經有過一位國王。
國王有好幾個女兒，個個都長得非常美麗；尤其是他的小女兒，更是美如天仙，就連見多識廣的太陽，每次照在她臉上時，都對她的美麗感到驚詫不已. 國王的宮殿附近，有一片幽暗的大森林。在這片森林中的一棵老椴樹下，有一個水潭，水潭很深。
在天熱的時候，小公主常常來到這片森林，坐在清涼的水潭邊上。她坐在那里感到無聊的時候，就取出一只金球，把金球拋向空中，然后再用手接住。
這成了她最喜愛的游戲。 不巧的是，有一次，小公主伸出兩只小手去接金球，金球卻沒有落進她的手里，而是掉到了地上，而且一下子就滾到了水潭里。
小公主兩眼緊緊地盯著金球，可是金球忽地一下子在水潭里就沒影兒了。因為水潭里的水很深，看不見底，小公主就哭了起來，她的哭聲越來越大，哭得傷心極了。
哭著哭著，小公主突然聽見有人大聲說：“哎呀，公主，您這是怎么啦？您這樣嚎啕大哭，就連石頭聽了都會心疼的呀。”聽了這話，小公主四處張望，想弄清楚說話聲是從哪兒傳來的，不料卻發現一只青蛙，從水里伸出他那丑陋不堪的肥嘟嘟的大腦袋。
"啊！原來是你呀，游泳健將，”小公主對青蛙說道，“我在這兒哭，是因為我的金球掉進水潭里去了。” "好啦，不要難過，別哭了，”青蛙回答說，“我有辦法幫助您。
要是我幫您把您的金球撈出來，您拿什么東西來回報我呢？” "親愛的青蛙，你要什么東西都成呵，”小公主回答說，“我的衣服、我的珍珠和寶石、甚至我頭上戴著的這頂金冠，都可以給你。” 聽了這話，青蛙對小公主說：“您的衣服、您的珍珠、您的寶石，還有您的金冠，我哪樣都不想要。
不過，要是您喜歡我，讓我做您的好朋友，我們一起游戲，吃飯的時候讓我和您同坐一張餐桌，用您的小金碟子吃東西，用您的小高腳杯飲酒，晚上還讓我睡在您的小床上；要是您答應所有這一切的話，我就潛到水潭里去，把您的金球撈出來。” "好的，太好了，”小公主說，“只要你愿意把我的金球撈出來，你的一切要求我都答應。”
小公主雖然嘴上這么說，心里卻想：“這只青蛙可真夠傻的，盡胡說八道！他只配蹲在水潭里，和其他青蛙一起呱呱叫，怎么可能做人的好朋友呢？” 青蛙得到了小公主的許諾之后，把腦袋往水里一扎，就潛入了水潭。過了不大一會兒，青蛙嘴里銜著金球，浮出了水面，然后把金球吐在草地上。
小公主重又見到了自己心愛的玩具，心里別提有多高興了。她把金球揀了起來，撒腿就跑。
"別跑！別跑！”青蛙大聲叫道，“帶上我呀！我可跑不了您那么快。” 盡管青蛙扯著嗓子拼命叫喊，可是沒有一點兒用。
小公主對青蛙的喊叫根本不予理睬，而是徑直跑回了家，并且很快就把可憐的青蛙忘記得一干二凈。青蛙只好蹦蹦跳跳地又回到水潭。

普羅米修斯是泰坦巨人之一。在宙斯與巨人的戰爭中，他站在新的奧林波斯山神一邊。他用粘土造出了第一個男人。雅典娜賦予了這個男人靈魂和神圣的生命。普羅米修斯還花費了很多時間和精力創造了火，并將之贈予人類。火使人成為萬物之靈。 在這之后，舉行了第一次神與人的聯席會議。這個會議將決定燒烤過的動物的哪一部分該分給神，哪一部分該給人類。普羅米修斯切開一頭牛，把它分成兩部分：他把肉放在皮下，將骨頭放在肥肉下。因為他知道自私的宙斯愛吃肥肉。宙斯看穿了他的把戲。普羅米修斯偏袒人類，這使宙斯感到不快。因此，他專橫地把火從人類手中奪走。然而，普羅米修斯設法竊走了天火，偷偷地把它帶給人類。 宙斯對他這種肆無忌憚的違抗行為大發雷霆。他令其他的山神把普羅米修斯用鎖鏈縛在高加索山脈的一塊巖石上。一只饑餓的老鷹天天來啄食他的肝臟，而
他的肝臟又總是重新長出來。他的痛苦要持續三萬年。而他堅定地面對苦難，從來不在宙斯面前喪失勇氣。最后，海格立斯使普羅米修斯與宙斯恢復了他們的友誼，找到了金蘋果，殺死了老鷹，因而解救了人類的老朋友。
