狗和影子（The Dog and the Shadow）It happened that a Dog had got a piece of meat and was carrying it home in his mouth to eat it in peace. Now, on his way home he had to cross a plank lying across a running brook. As he crossed, he looked down and saw his own shadow reflected in the water beneath. Thinking it was another dog with another piece of meat, he made up his mind to have that also. So he made a snap at the shadow in the water, but as he opened his mouth the piece of meat fell out, dropped into the water and was never seen more.
一只狗嘴里銜著一塊肉，走過一條河上面的橋，看見他自己在水里的影子，以為是另一只狗，那時狗銜著的肉，比他自己的還要大一倍。因此他仍掉自己的那一塊，狠狠地撲向那只狗，想奪到那一塊較大的肉。結果兩頭都落了空，因為他想要抓取在水中的那一塊，只不過是一個影子，而原來的那一塊，也被水沖走了。
Beware lest you lose the substance by grasping at the shadow.
謹記，切莫因追逐幻影而丟失已有的東西。

The Old Cat An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse; she jumped and caught the mouse. But she could not bite it; so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it. Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed the mouse. She began to hit the cat. The cat said, "Do not hit your old servant. I have worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am too old. Do not緝場光渡叱盜癸醛含互 be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young."。

One day, there was a blind man sitting on the steps of a building with a sign by his feet, that read: "I am blind, please help." A creative publicist was walking by the blind man and stopped to observe that the man only had a few coins in his hat. He put a few of his own coins in the hat, and without stopping to ask for permission, took the sign, turned it around, and wrote a new message. He then placed the sign by the feet of the blind man, and left. Later that afternoon the creative publicist returned by the blind man and noticed that his hat was almost completely full of bills and coins. The blind man recognized his footsteps and asked if it was him who had changed his sign? He also wanted to know what the man wrote on it? The publicist replied: "I just changed your message so people could relate to it." He wished the man well, said goodbye, and went on his * blind man didn't know it, but his new sign now read:TODAY IS SPRING AND I CANNOT SEE IT. 一天，有個瞎子坐在一棟大樓的臺階上，腳下的標牌上寫著：“我是個瞎子，請幫幫我。”
一位有創意的廣告員從瞎子身旁經過時停了下來，看到瞎子的帽子里只有一些硬幣。他也在帽子里放了幾個硬幣，未經允許，就拿過標牌，翻過來在上面重新寫了一句標語，然后把標牌放回瞎子的腳下，離開了。
那天下午晚些時候，這位廣告員回到了這個身旁，他發現帽子里幾乎裝滿了紙鈔和硬幣。瞎子聽出了他的腳步聲，問他是否是那個改標牌的人？他也想知道這位男士在上面寫了什么。
廣告員回答說：“我只是改了你的標語使人們能夠看明白。”他向這個瞎子表達了祝福，說了再見，繼續走自己的路。
瞎子并不知道，他的新標語是這樣的： 現在是春天，但我卻看不到。

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。

就在他想放棄的時候，他突然想到一個主意。烏鴉叼來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去。
漸漸地，水面升高了。烏鴉高興地喝到了水。

He grew up doing what prairie chicken do-scratching at the dirt for food and flying short distances with a noisy fluttering of wings. It was a dreary life. Gradually the eagle grew older and bitter. One day he and his prairie chicken friend saw a beautiful bird soaring on the currents of air, high above the mountains."Oh, I wish I could fly like that!" said the eagle. The chicken replied, "Don't give it another thought. That's the mighty eagle, the king of all birds-you could never be like him!" And the eagle didn't give it another thought. He went on cackling and complaining about life. He died thinking he was a prairie chicken. My friends, you too were born an eagle. The Creator intended you to be an eagle, so don't listen to the prairie chickens！ 一個小男孩發現了一只老鷹下的蛋，把它放進了一只山雞的窩里。
鷹被孵出來了，但他以為自己是一只山雞。漸漸的他長大了，卻做著山雞所做的事---從泥土里尋找食物，做短距離的飛翔，翅膀還啪啪作響。
生活非常沉悶，漸漸地鷹長大了，也越來越苦惱。有一天，他和他的山雞朋友看見一只美麗的鳥在天空翱翔，飛的比山還高。
“哦，我要能飛的那么高該多好啊！”鷹說。山雞回答說，“不要想了，那是兇猛無比的鷹，鳥中之王---你不可能像他一樣！”于是鷹放棄了那個念頭。
他繼續咯咯地叫，不停的抱怨生活。最后他死了，依然認為自己是一只山雞。
朋友們，你們天生就是雄鷹。造物主有意把你造就成一只雄鷹，所以不要聽信山雞的話！（3）孤島上的故事，痛苦有時是上天的恩典 The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited * prayed feverishly for God to rescue him,and every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed *ted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect him from the elements, and to store his few * then one day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, the smoke rolling up to the * worst had happened; everything was * was stunned with grief and anger. “God how could you do this to me!” he * the next day, however, he was awakened by the sound of a ship that was approaching the * had come to rescue him.“How did you know I was here?” asked the weary man of his rescuers. “We saw your smoke signal,” they * is easy to get discouraged when things are going bad.

他天天激動地祈禱神救他能夠早日離開此處，回到家鄉。他還每天注視著海上有否可搭救他的人，但卻是除了汪洋一片，什么也沒有。
后來，他決定用那片帶他到小島的木頭造一個簡陋的小木屋，以保護他在這險惡的環境中生存，并且保存他所有剩下的東西。但有一天，在他捕完食物后，準備回小屋時，突然發現他的小屋竟然陷在熊熊烈火之中，大火引起的濃煙不斷向天上竄。
悲痛的他，氣憤的對天吶喊著：神啊！你怎么可以這樣對待我！頓時，眼淚從他的眼角中流出。最悲慘的是：他所有的一切東西，在這一瞬間通通化為烏有了。
第二天一早，他被一艘正靠近小島的船只的鳴笛聲所吵醒。是的，有人來救他了。
到了船上時，他問那些船員說：「你怎么知道我在這里？」「因為我們看到了信號般的濃煙。」他們回答說。
人在碰到困難時，很容易會沮喪。不過無論受到折磨或者痛苦，都不用因此失去信心，因為上帝一直在我們心里面做著奇妙的工作。
記住：當下一次你的小木屋。
5.含哲理的英語簡單小故事
She had been shopping with her Mom in Wal-Mart. She must have been 6 years old, this beautiful brown haired, freckle-faced image of innocence. It was pouring outside. The kind of rain that gushes over the top of rain gutters, so much in a hurry to hit the Earth it has no time to flow down the spout. We all stood there under the awning and just inside the door of the Wal-Mart. We waited, some patiently, others 4)irritated because nature messed up their hurried day. I am always mesmerized by rainfall. I get lost in the sound and sight of the heavens washing away the dirt and dust of the world. Memories of running, splashing so carefree as a child come pouring in as a welcome reprieve from the worries of my day. Her voice was so sweet as it broke the hypnotic trance we were all caught in. "Mom, let's run through the rain," she said. "What?" Mom asked. "Let's run through the rain!" She repeated. "No, honey. We'll wait until it slows down a bit," Mom replied. This young child waited about another minute and repeated: "Mom, let's run through the rain." "We'll get soaked if we do," Mom said. "No, we won't, Mom. That's not what you said this morning," the young girl said as she tugged at her Mom's arm." "This morning? When did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?" "Don't you remember? When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said, 'If God can get us through this, he can get us through anything!" The entire crowd stopped dead silent. I swear you couldn't hear anything but the rain. We all stood silently. No one came or left in the next few minutes. Mom paused and thought for a moment about what she would say. Now some would laugh it off and scold her for being silly. Some might even ignore what was said. But this was a moment of affirmation in a young child's life. Time when innocent trust can be nurtured so that it will bloom into faith. "Honey, you are absolutely right. Let's run through the rain. If get wet, well maybe we just needed washing," Mom said. Then off they ran. We all stood watching, smiling and laughing as they darted past the cars and. They held their shopping bags over their heads just in case. They got soaked. But they were followed by a few who screamed and laughed like children all the way to their cars. And yes, I did. I ran. I got wet. I needed washing. Circumstances or people can take away your material possessions, they can take away your money, and they can take away your health. But no one can ever take away your precious memories. So, don't forget to make time and take the opportunities to make memories every day! To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven. I hope you still take the time to run through the rain. Run Through the Rain 雨中的記憶 她和媽媽剛在沃爾瑪購完物。
這個天真的小女孩應該6歲大了，頭發是美麗的棕色，臉上有雀斑。外面下著傾盆大雨。
雨水溢滿了檐槽，來不及排走，就迫不及待地涌向了大地。 我們都站在沃爾瑪門口的遮篷下。
大家在等待，有的人很耐心，也有人煩躁，因為老天在給他們本已忙碌的一天添亂。雨天總引起我的遐思。
我出神地聽著、看著老天洗刷沖走這世界的污垢和塵埃，孩時無憂無慮地在雨中奔跑玩水的記憶洶涌而至，暫時緩解了我這一天的焦慮。 小女孩甜美的聲音打破了這令人昏昏欲睡的氣氛，“媽媽，我們在雨里跑吧，”她說。
“什么？”母親問。 “我們在雨里跑吧，”她重復。
“不，親愛的，我們等雨小一點再走，”母親回答說。 過了一會小女孩又說：“媽媽，我們跑出去吧。”
“這樣的話我們會濕透的，”母親說。 “不會的，媽媽。
你今天早上不是這樣說的。”小女孩一邊說一邊拉著母親的手。
“今天早上？我什么時候說過我們淋雨不會濕啊？” “你不記得了嗎？你和爸爸談他的癌癥時，你不是說‘如果上帝讓我們闖過這一關，那我們就沒有什么過不去了。’” 人群一片寂靜。
我發誓，除了雨聲，你什么都聽不到。我們都靜靜地站著。
接下來的幾分鐘沒有一個人走動。母親停了一下，在想著應該說些什么。
有人也許會對此一笑了之，或者責備這孩子的不懂事，有人甚至不把她的話放在心上。但這卻是一個小孩子一生中需要被肯定的時候。
若受到鼓舞，此時孩子單純的信任就會發展成為堅定的信念。“親愛的，你說得對，我們跑過去吧。
如果淋濕了，那也許是因為我們的確需要沖洗一下了，”母親說。然后她們就沖出去了。
我們站在那里，笑著看她們飛快地跑過停著的汽車。他們把購物袋高舉過頭想擋擋雨，但還是濕透了。
好幾個人像孩子般尖叫著，大笑著，也跟著沖了出去，奔向自己的車子。當然，我也這樣做了，跑了出去，淋濕了。
我也需要接受洗禮。環境或其他人可以奪去你的物質財富，搶走你的金錢，帶走你的健康，但沒有。
6.英語短篇哲理故事
Angel Once upon a time there was a child ready to be born. One day the child asked God: "They tell me you are going to send me to earth tomorrow but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?" God replied: "Among the many angels, I have chosen one for you. She will be waiting for you and will take care of you." "But, " said the child: "tell me here in Heaven I don't anything else but sing and smile. That's what I need to be happy!" God said: "Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel's love and be happy." "And," said the child: "how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me, If I don't know the language that men talk?" "That's easy", said God: "Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak." The child looked up at God saying: "And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?" God smiled at the child saying: "Your angel will Place your hands together and will teach you how to pray." The child said: "I've heard on earth there are bad men. Who will Protect me?" God put his arm around the child, saying: "Your angel will defend you - even if it means risking life!" The child looked sad, saying: "But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore." God hugged the child: "Your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you the way to come back to me, even though I will always be next to you." At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard. The child, in a hurry, asked softly: "Oh God, if I am about to leave now Please tell my Angel's name!" God replied: "Your angel's name is of no importance。
you will simply call her MOMMY！" 有一個嬰兒即將出生。 一天，這個小孩問上帝，“他們告訴我明天你將要把我送到地球，不過為什么我在那兒會那么小和無助呢？” 上帝說，“在所有的天使之中，我已經選中了一個給你。
她將會等待你和照顧你。” “不過”，小孩問了，“請告訴我--在天堂我除了歌唱和微笑之外什么都不做。
這些是我快樂所需要的！” 上帝說，“你的天使每天將會為你歌唱和微笑。你將會感受到你的天使的愛，你會感到快樂。”
“還有”，小孩又問了，“如果我不懂他們說的語言，當人們對我說話的時候我怎樣才會理解呢？” “這很簡單，”上帝說，“你的天使將教會你語言中最美麗和最甜蜜的詞語，帶著最大的耐心和關懷，你的天使將教會你怎樣說話。 小孩抬頭看著上帝說，“我想和你說話的時候我該怎么做呢？” 上帝微笑著對小孩說，“你的天使會把你的雙手放在一起然后教會你怎樣祈禱。”
小孩說，“我聽說地球上有壞人，誰將會保護我呢？” 上帝把手放在小孩身上，說，“你的天使將會保護你，甚至會冒生命的危險！” 小孩看起來有些悲傷，他說，“我將會一直感到悲傷因為我再也看不到你了。” 上帝擁抱著小孩。
“你的天使以后會一直跟你說有關我的事情，還會教你回到我身邊的方法，雖說我一直與你同在。” 在這一刻小孩在天堂感到了無比的安詳，不過已經可以聽到從地球傳來的聲音。
小孩有點急促，溫柔的問“上帝啊，如果我現在將要離開，請告訴我我的天使的名字！” 上帝回答說，你的天使的名字并不那么重要，你可以簡單的叫她—— “媽媽”。
——獻給天下所有母親。

8.集經典英語小故事,勵志方面,帶翻譯
Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the infinite, so long are you young. 無論是60歲還是16歲，你需要保持永不衰竭的好奇心、永不熄滅的孩提般求知的渴望和追求事業成功的歡樂與熱情。
在你我的心底，有一座無線電臺，它能在多長時間里接收到人間萬物傳遞來的美好、希望、歡樂、鼓舞和力量的信息，你就會年輕多長時間。 An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first, narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately past boulders and over waterfalls. Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the waters flow more quietly, and in the end, without any visible break, they become merged in the sea, and painlessly lose their individual being. 人的生命應當像河流，開始是涓涓細流，受兩岸的限制而十分狹窄，爾后奔騰咆哮，翻過危巖，飛越瀑布，河面漸漸開闊，河岸也隨之向兩邊隱去，最后水流平緩，森森無際，匯入大海之中，個人就這樣毫無痛苦地消失了。
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity,of the appetite for adventure over the love of * often exists in a man of sixty more than a boy of * grows old merely by a number of * grow old by deserting our ideals. 青春意味著戰勝懦弱的那股大丈夫氣概和擯棄安逸的那種冒險精神。往往一個60歲的老者比一個20歲的青年更多一點這種勁頭。
人老不僅僅是歲月流逝所致，更主要的是不思進取的結果。 Years may wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust. 光陰可以在顏面上留下印記，而熱情之火的熄滅則在心靈上刻下皺紋。
煩惱、恐懼、缺乏自信會扭曲人的靈魂，并將青春化為灰燼。
