    1.趣味英語小故事 篇一
    Mike is a little boy. He is only five years old. He is too small to go to school. So he can not read and write.
    One day he stood at my desk with a pencil in his hand. There was a big piece of paper on the desk. He wanted to draw a picture of himself. He drew lines and cleared them out, then drew more and cleared them out again. When I looked at the picture, he wasn't happy. "Well," he said at last to me, "I'll put a tail on it and make it a monkey."
    He began to add the tail. I began to laugh.
    翻譯
    邁克是一個(gè)小男孩,他只有5歲。他太小還沒有上學(xué),因此也不會(huì)讀和寫。
    一天,他手里拿著一支鉛筆站在我的桌子前。桌子上放著一張大紙,他要畫自畫像。他畫了幾筆就擦掉了,再畫幾筆,有擦掉了。當(dāng)我看一幅畫時(shí),他很不高興。 "好吧,"他最后和我說,"我就再加一條尾巴,把他畫成一只猴子吧!"
    他開始加上小尾巴,我大笑起來。

    Suddenly she sees a bear riding a bike toward her. She watches the bike. “I know! I have a good idea.” she jumps and shouts happily, “I can roll a pumpkin. It’s like a wheel.”
    突然她看見一只狗熊騎著一輛自行車朝她這邊來。她看著自行車,跳著說:“有了!我有辦法了。我可以把南瓜滾回家去。南瓜好像車輪。
    So she rolls the pumpkin to her home. When her mother sees the big pumpkin, she is surprised, “Oh, my God! How can you carry it home?” the little panda answers proudly, “I can’t lift it, but I can roll it.” Her mother smiled and says,“What a clever girl!”
    于是她把那瓜滾回家。當(dāng)她媽媽看到這只大南瓜的時(shí)候,很驚訝:“天啊!這么食的南瓜!你是怎么把它帶回家來的?”小熊貓自豪地說;“我拎不動(dòng)它,可是我能滾動(dòng)它??!”她媽媽微笑著說:“真聰明??!”
    3.趣味英語小故事 篇三
    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.

    就在他想放棄的時(shí)候,他突然想到一個(gè)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(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微不足道,但如果積少成多,便會(huì)帶來很大變化。
    4.趣味英語小故事 篇四
    One morning when a vixen was taking her babies out of the lair, she saw a lioness and her cub.
    Why do you have only one child, dear dame? asked the vixen.
    Look at my healthy and numerous children here, and imagine, if you are able, how a proud mother should feel.

    母獅平靜地說:是呀,看看這漂亮的一大群,他們都是狐貍!我只有一個(gè),可他畢竟是一頭獅子。
    貴重的價(jià)值在于質(zhì),而不在于量。
    5.趣味英語小故事 篇五
    Making His Mark
    A man from the state of Chu was taking a boat across a river when he dropped his sword into the water carelessly. Immediately he made a mark on the side of the boat where the sword dropped, hoping to find it later. When the boat stopped moving, he went into the water to search for his sword at the place where he had marked the boat. As we know, the boat had moved but the sword had not. Isnt this a very foolish way to look for a sword?
    楚國有個(gè)人坐船渡江時(shí),他不小心把自己的一把寶劍掉落江中。他馬上掏出一把小刀,在寶劍落水的船舷上刻上一個(gè)記號。船靠岸后,那楚人立即從船上刻記號的地方跳下水去撈取掉落的寶劍。他怎么找得到寶劍呢?船繼續(xù)行駛,而寶劍卻不會(huì)再移動(dòng)。像他這樣去找劍,真是太愚蠢可笑了。
    6.趣味英語小故事 篇六
    A singing-bird was confined1 in a cage which hung outside a window, and had a way of singing at night when all other birds were asleep. One night a bat came and clung2 to the bars of the cage, and asked the bird why she was silent by day and sang only at night. "I have a very good reason for doing so," said the bird: "it was once when I was singing in the daytime that a fowler was attracted by my voice, and set his nets for me and caught me. Since then I have never sung except by night." But the bat replied, "It is no use your doing that now when you are a prisoner. If only you had done so before you were caught, you might still have been free."
    Precautions3 are useless after the event.
    一只畫眉鳥被囚禁在窗外掛著的一個(gè)籠子里,當(dāng)其他鳥兒都酣睡時(shí),她卻在夜里唱歌。有一個(gè)夜晚,蝙蝠飛過來,抓住鳥籠的.柵欄,問她為什么白天默默無聲,卻在夜里放聲歌唱。小鳥回答說:“我這樣做是有道理的,曾經(jīng)有一次,當(dāng)我在白天唱歌時(shí),一個(gè)捕鳥人被我的歌聲吸引,就用鳥籠子捉住了我。從此我只在夜里歌唱。”可是,蝙蝠卻說:“你現(xiàn)在這樣做根本沒用了,因?yàn)槟阋呀?jīng)成為階下囚。若是在被捉住之前這樣做就好了,那樣或許你依然是自由之身!”
    待事情發(fā)生之后再預(yù)防,為時(shí)已晚。
    7.趣味英語小故事 篇七
    An unlucky fox fell into a well. It was quite deep, so he could not get out by himself.
    A goat passed by. He asked the fox what he was doing in the well. "Oh, have you not heard?" said the fox. "There is going to be a great drought, so I jumped down to get some water. Why don’t you come down here too?"
    The goat believed his words, and jumped down into the well.
    But the fox immediately jumped on the goat’s back and up to the edge of the well.
    "Good-bye, friend," said the fox. "Remember next time don’t trust the advice of a man in difficulties."
    【參考譯文】
    一只不走運(yùn)的狐貍,失足掉到了井里。井很深,他無法跳出來。
    一只山羊經(jīng)過這里,便問狐貍在井下做什么。狐貍說:“哦,你沒有聽說嗎?這里將要大旱,因此我跳進(jìn)來取水,為什么你不下來一起喝呢?”
    山羊相信了狐貍的話,就真的跳進(jìn)井里。
    狐貍立即跳上山羊的背,又一跳,跳上了井沿。
    “再見,朋友,”狐貍說,“記住,不要相信一個(gè)身陷麻煩的人的建議?!?BR>    寓意: 處于困境之中的人為了擺脫困境,往往不惜犧牲別人的利益,所以他們的建議常常是不可信的。
    8.趣味英語小故事 篇八
    Long ago a great mountain began to rumble and shake.
    People came from far and near to see what would happen.
    "A great river will be born." said one.
    "Surely nothing less than a mighty dragon will e out." said another.
    "A god himself will spring form these rocks." said a third.
    Finally,after days of expectation a small crack appeared in the mountain. And out popped-a mouse.
    Just because someone makes a lot of fuss, it doesn't mean he is important.
    很久以前,一座大山隆隆作響,搖晃起來。遠(yuǎn)近各處的人都來看是怎樣回事。
    一個(gè)人說:"要出現(xiàn)一條大河了。"
    另一個(gè)人說:"準(zhǔn)會(huì)出現(xiàn)一條巨龍。"
    第三個(gè)人說:"從這些巖石中會(huì)出現(xiàn)一尊神來。"
    等了幾天之后,山坡上最終裂開一條小縫,卻蹦出來一只耗子。
    正因?yàn)槟橙舜笏翉垞P(yáng),所以他沒有什么了不起。
    9.趣味英語小故事 篇九
    Once a man wanted to go to the south, but his carriage was heading north. A passer-by asked him: “If you are going to the south, why is your chariot heading north? ” The man answered, “My horse is good at running, my driver is highly skilled at driving a carriage, and I have enough money. ” The man didn't consider that the direction might be wrong; the better his conditions were, the further he was away from his destination.
    從前有個(gè)人要到南方去,他坐的車子卻向北方行駛。過路人說:“你去南方,車子怎么向北行駛呢?”他回答說:“我的馬很能跑路,我的車夫駕車的技術(shù)也很高明,加上我又帶了充足的路費(fèi)?!边@個(gè)人沒有考慮到,方向弄反了,他的條件越好,離他要去的地方就越遠(yuǎn)。
    The idiom derived from this story indicates that one's action was the opposite effect to one's intention.
    后來人們就把這個(gè)故事概括為“南轅北轍”,比喻一個(gè)人的行為和他的目的正好相反。
    10.趣味英語小故事 篇十
    A Man and a Satyr having struck up an acquaintance, sat down together to eat。 The day being wintry and cold, the Man put his fingers to his mouse and blew opon them。 "What's that for, my friend?" asked the Satyr。 " My hands are so cold," said the Man, "I do it to warm them。" In a little while some hot food was placed before them, and the Man, raising the dish to his mouse, again blew opon it。 "And what's the meaning of that, now?" said the Satyr。 "Oh," replied the Man, "my porridge is so hot, I do it to cool it。" "Nay, then," said the Satyr, "from this moment I renounce your friendship, for I will have nothing to do with one who blows hot and cold with the same mouse。"
    一個(gè)人與賽特偶然相識(shí),坐在一齊吃東西。正值冬季,天氣很冷,那人把手放在嘴邊哈氣。賽特問道“我的朋友,那是干嗎?”這人說“我的手太冷了,這是為了取暖”。過了一會(huì)兒,熱騰騰的食物端上來了,那人把碟子舉到嘴邊又吹了起來,賽特問“這又是干嗎?”,那人說“哦,我的粥太燙了,我把他吹涼些”。賽特說“從此刻起,我要與你絕交,因?yàn)槲也幌牒鸵粋€(gè)反復(fù)無常的人做朋友”。
