1.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。

In china, people believe that, at the beginning, the tiger and the cat were friends, and the cat was much smarter than the tiger .The cat learned the physical skills quickly, and the tiger was always behind. Gradually, the tiger had to learn from the cat, and the cat was patient to teach the tiger. Day after day, month after month, finally, the tiger could also run, jump, roll, grasp, tear, and strike as well as the cat. 在中國,人們相信在很久以前貓和老虎是好朋友,而且貓比老虎聰明的多。
貓學習動作技巧很快,老虎卻總是落后。漸漸的,老虎不得不向貓學習了,貓也很有耐心的教老虎。
日復一日,月復一月,老虎終于也可以像貓一樣,跑,跳,打滾,撲抓,撕咬,擊打。One summer afternoon, the cat was taking a nap as the tiger sitting nearby. Looking at the cat, the tiger suddenly thought, why should he keep befriending with such a small animal since he had already learnt all the skills from the cat? The evil tiger decided to kill the sleeping cat as a before dinner snack. The tiger stood up and approached the cat viciously. Just as this moment, the cat woke up. Opening up her eyes, the smart cat immediately realized what the tiger was trying to do and swiftly jumped onto a nearby tall tree and climbed to the top branch. 一個夏天的下午,貓在打盹,老虎在邊上坐著。
老虎看著貓,忽然想到,既然自己已經學會了貓的所有本領,為什么還要和這么小的動物一直做朋友呢?邪惡的老虎決定殺死熟睡中的貓,當作晚餐前的點心。老虎站起來,邪惡的一步步靠近貓。
就在這時,貓醒來了。聰明的她睜開眼睛立刻意識到老虎要干什么,于是立刻靈活的跳到了附近的大樹上,爬到樹頂。
The tiger thought he had already learned every skill from the cat .But he never knew that the cat had hidden the tree climbing from him. 老虎以為他已經學到了貓的所有本領,但他不知道貓還藏了一手爬樹的本事。“I kept the last technique of the tree climbing from you just because I suspected you might be can ungrateful friend.” The cat loudly told the tiger who watched under the tree helplessly.“我沒有讓你學這最后一個爬樹的技巧,因為我懷疑你可能會是個不知感恩的朋友。”
貓高聲告訴樹下無奈的老虎。 The Rabbit and The Wolf' One day a rabbit was walking near the hill. He heard someone crying,'Help! Help!'It was a wolf. A big stone was on the wolfs back. He cried, "Mr. Rabbit, take this big stone from my back, or I will die." The Rabbit moved the stone from the wolfs back. Then the wolf jumped and caught the rabbit. “If you kill me, I will never help you again.” Cried the rabbit . “Ha,ha!You will not live, because I will kill you." said the wolf.'I helped you. How can you kill me? It's unfair. You ask Mrs. Duck. She will say that you are wrong." said the rabbit. “I will ask her,” said the wolf. So they went to ask Mrs. Duck. The duck listened to their story and said,” What stone? I must see it. Then I can know who is right. “So the wolf and the rabbit and the duck went to see the stone. "Now, put the stone back," said Mrs. Duck. So they put the stone back. Now the big stone is on the wolf's back *'s all for my story. Thanks for listening.兔子和狼 一天,兔子先生正在山坡附近遛噠,他聽到有人在呼救:“救命呀!救命呀!”他這邊瞧瞧,那邊望望,他發現了可憐的狼先生,一塊大石頭掉下來壓在狼先生的背上,他起不來了。
他喊道:“兔先生,把這塊大石頭從我背上搬開,要不然我會死的。”兔子好不容易把大石頭從狼背上搬開,這時,狼跳起來,把兔子叼在嘴里。
“如果你吃了我,”兔子叫喊著,“只要我還活著,我再也不幫你的忙了。” “你不會活了,”狼說,“因為我要吃了你了。”
“好人是不會殺救過他命的恩人的,”兔子說,“這很不公平,你去問鴨子夫人,她很胖,她樣樣事情都通曉,她一定會說沒有一個好人會干出這種事情來。” “我去問她”,于是,狼和兔子到了鴨子家。
狼說:“當兔子先生在山坡附近坐下時,我抓住了他,因此,我要吃掉他。現在你來談談你是怎樣想的吧。”
“我從他的背上搬開好大的一塊石頭,”兔子說,“因此,我說他不應該吃掉我,因為我救了他。現在你說說你的看法吧。”
“什么石頭?”鴨子夫人問。“山附近一塊石頭,”兔子說。
“我必須去看看,”鴨子說,“如果我連那塊石頭也沒有看見,那我怎么說得出我的看法?”于是,狼、兔子和鴨子一起去看那塊石頭。現在你知道結果是什么了。

他又說:“如果你把我放了,等我長大后再來抓我,那對你會有更大的好處!”The fisherman says: "If I give up the present small profit to seek an uncertain future large one, am I not a fool?"漁夫說:“如果我現在放棄手上已經得到的小利而去追求那些虛無渺茫的大利,那我豈不成了傻子了嗎?”This story means: Only a foolish man will give up the litter profit which he has and seek uncertain future large profits. 這個故事說明,愚蠢的人才會放棄已到手的小利,而去追求那些虛無的大利。A poor pig Danny is a little pig .

'There's my supper,' thought he, 'if only I can find some excuse to seize it.' Then he called out to the Lamb, 'How dare you muddle the water from which I am drinking?' 'Nay, master, nay,' said Lambikin; 'if the water be muddy up there, I cannot be the cause of it, for it runs down from you to me.' 'Well, then,' said the Wolf, 'why did you call me bad names this time last year?' 'That cannot be,' said the Lamb; 'I am only six months old.' 'I don't care,' snarled the Wolf; 'if it was not you it was your father;' and with that he rushed upon the poor little Lamb and .WARRA WARRA WARRA WARRA WARRA .ate her all up.

'That's for me, as I am a Fox,' said Master Reynard, and he walked up to the foot of the tree. 'Good-day, Mistress Crow,' he cried. 'How well you are looking to-day: how glossy your feathers; how bright your eye. I feel sure your voice must surpass that of other birds, just as your figure does; let me hear but one song from you that I may greet you as the Queen of Birds.' The Crow lifted up her head and began to caw her best, but the moment she opened her mouth the piece of cheese fell to the ground, only to be snapped up by Master Fox. 'That will do,' said he. 'That was all I wanted. In exchange for your cheese I will give you a piece of advice for the future .'Do not trust flatterers。

Snow-white白雪公主 Once there was a Queen. She was sitting at the window. There was snow outside in the garden-snow on the hill and in the lane, snow on the hunts and on the trees: all things were white with snow. The Queen was making a coat for a little child. She said, "I want my child to be white as this cloth, white as the snow. And I shall call her Snow-white." Some days after that the Queen had a child. The child was white as snow. The Queen called her Snow-white. But the Queen was very ill, and after some days she died. Snow-white lived, and was a very happy and beautiful child. One year after that, the King married another Queen. The new Queen was very beautiful; but she was not a good woman. A wizard had given this Queen a glass. The glass could speak. It was on the wall in the Queen's room. Every day the queen looked in the glass to see how beautiful she was. As she looked in the glass, she asked: "Tell me, glass upon the wall, who is most beautiful of all?" And the glass spoke and said: "The Queen is most beautiful of all." Year went by. Snow-white grew up and became a little girl. every day the Queen looked in the glass and said, "Tell me, glass upon the wall, who is most beautiful of all?" And the glass said, "Snow-white is most beautiful of all." When the Queen heard this, she was very angry. She said, "Snow-white is not more beautiful than I am. There is no one who is more beautiful than I am." Then the Queen sat on her bed and cried. After one hour the Queen went out of her room. She called one of the servants, and said, "Take Snow-white into the forest and kill her." The servant took Snow-white to the forest, but he did not kill her, because she was so beautiful and so good. He said, "I shall not kill you; but do not go to the King's house, because the Queen is angry and she will see you. If the Queen sees you, she will make some other man kill you. Wait here in the forest; some friends will help you." Then he went away. Poor Snow-white sat at the foot of a tree and cried. Then she saw that night was coming. She said, "I will not cry. I will find some house where I can sleep tonight. I cannot wait here: the bears will eat me." She went far into the forest. Then she saw a little hut. She opened the door of the hut, and went in. In the hut she saw seven little beds. There was a table, and on the table there were seven little loaves and seven little glasses. She ate one of the loaves. Then she said, "I want some water to drink." So she drank some water out of one of the glasses. Then she fell asleep on one of the seven little beds. The hut was the home of seven Little Men. When it was night, the seven Little Men came to the hut. Each Little Man had a big beard, and a little blue coat. Each Little Man came into the hut, and took his little lamp. Then each Little Man sat down, and ate his little loaf, and drank his little glass of water. But one Little Man said, "Someone has eaten my little loaf." And another Little Man said, "Someone has drunk my little glass of water." Then the seven Little Men went to bed, but one Little Man said, "Someone is sleeping on my little bed." All the seven Little Men came to look at Snow-white as she slept on the Little Men's bed. They said, "She is very beautiful." Snow-white awoke, and saw the seven Little Men with their big beards standing near her bed. She was afraid. The Little men said, "Do not be afraid. We are your friends. Tell us how you came here." Snow-white said, "I will tell you." Then she told them her story. They said, "Do not be afraid. Live here with us. But see that the door shut when we are not in the house with you. Do not go out. If you go out, the bad Queen will find you. Then she will know that you are not dead, and will tell someone to kill you." So Snow-white lived in the hut with the seven Little Men. After some days Snow-white went into the garden. One of the Queen's servants was going through the forest, and he saw her. He went and told the Queen, "Snow-white is in a hut in the forest." The Queen was very angry when she heard that Snow-white was not dead. The Queen took an apple. She made a hole in the red side of the apple, and put some powder into the hole. Then she put on old clothes and went to the hut. She called, "Is any one there?" Snow-white opened the door, and came out to her. The Queen said, "I have some pretty apples. Eat one of my pretty apples." Snow-white took the apple and said, "Is it good?" The Queen said, "See, I will eat this white side of the apple; you eat the red side. Then you will know that it is good." Snow-white ate the red side of the apple. When。

"Ah, oldwater-splasher, is it you," she said, "I am weeping for my golden ball,which has fallen into the well."

And because I cried so, the frog brought it out again forme, and because he so insisted, I promised him he should be mycompanion, but I never thought he would be able to come out of hiswater. And now he is outside there, and wants to come in to me."In the meantime it knocked a second time, and cried, "Princess,youngest princess, open the door for me, do you not know what yousaid to me yesterday by the cool waters of the well. Princess,youngest princess, open the door for me."Then said the king, "That which you have promised must you * and let him in."
