经典英语小故事（一）：

A mouse once took a bite out of a bull's tail as he lay dozing。 The bull jumped up in a rage and， with his head low to the ground， chased the mouse right across the yard。 The mouse was too quick for him， however， and slipped easily into a hole in the wall。

The bull charged the wall furiously again and again， but although he bruised his head and chipped his horns， the mouse stayed safely inside his hole。 After a time the bull gave up and sank down to rest again。

As soon as the bull was asleep， the little mouse crept to the mouth of the hole， pattered across the yard， bit the bull again -- this time on the nose -- and rushed back to safety。 As the bull roared helplessly the mouse squeaked:

"It's not always the big people who e off best。 Sometimes the small ones win， you know。"

老鼠和公牛

有一次，公牛躺着打盹，一只老鼠咬了他的尾巴。公牛怒气冲冲地跳起来，低着头追老鼠，一向追过院子。然而，老鼠跑得比他快多了，从容地钻到墙洞里去了。

公牛一次又一次地猛撞墙壁，尽管头撞肿了，角撞裂了，老鼠却安然待在洞里。过了一会儿，公牛不撞了，倒下歇着。

公牛刚睡着，小老鼠就爬到洞口，嗒嗒地跑过院子，又咬了公牛一口??这回咬了鼻子??又跑回安全的地方去。当公牛毫无办法地吼叫时，老鼠吱吱叫道：

"大人物并不总占上风。有时小人物也会取胜。"

经典英语小故事（二）：

On a vacation trip， Duke Huan of the state of Qi came to the ruin of the capital of Guo Shi ， which perished long ago。

Seeing the desolate and bleak prospects of broken tiles， collapsed walls， and clusters of weeds， he could not help asking the local people about the reason of the ruin of Guo Shi。

They replied，"Guo Shi was fond of doing good deeds， and averse to evildoing， which led to the perdition。"

When the Duke could not understand the answer， people explained ，" Though he liked doing good， he had never been able to do so; though he hated evildoing， never could he help not participating。 That caused the ruin of his capital。"

郭氏之墟

齐桓公出游途中，来到已经灭亡许久的郭氏都城的废墟。

看到瓦砾残垣、杂草丛生的萧条景象，忍不住问当地百姓郭氏灭亡的原因。

百姓们回答说："郭氏由于喜爱善行善事。厌恶邪恶丑行而导致灭亡。"

齐桓公不能理解这种回答，百姓们便解释说："郭氏虽然喜爱善行善事，但从来都不能做到;尽管厌恶邪恶丑行，却总是忍不住参与其中。这就是他的都城变成废墟的原因。"

经典英语小故事（三）：

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。 Isn't this a very foolish way to look for a sword?

刻舟求剑

楚国有个人坐船渡江时，他不细心把自我的一把宝剑掉落江中。他立刻掏出一把小刀，在宝剑落水的船舷上刻上一个记号。船靠岸后，那楚人立即从船上刻记号的地方跳下水去捞取掉落的宝剑。他怎样找得到宝剑呢？船继续行驶，而宝剑却不会再移动。像他这样去找剑，真是太愚蠢可笑了。

经典英语小故事（四）：

The miser and his gold Once upon a time there was a miser。 He hid his gold under a tree。 Every week he used to dig it up。

One night a robber stole all the gold。 When the miser came again， he found nothing but an empty hole。

他告诉他们那里原先有他的金块。

问明了原因后，一个邻居问：“你使用过这些金块吗?” “没用过，” 他说，“我只是时常来看看。”“那么，以后再来看这个洞，”邻居说，“就像以前有金块时一样。”

After some time they came out。 When they came out， the Country mouse said， "I do not like living in the city。 I like living in my hole in the field。 For it is nicer to be poor and happy， than to be rich and afraid。"

乡下老鼠就到城里老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮，好吃的东西也为他们摆好了。可是正当他们要开始吃的时候，听见很大的一阵响声，城里的老鼠叫喊起来：“快跑！快跑！猫来了！”他们飞快地跑开躲藏起来。

过了一会儿，他们出来了。当他们出来时，乡下老鼠说：“我不喜欢住在城里，我喜欢住在田野我的洞里。因为这样虽然贫穷可是欢乐自在，比起虽然富有却要过着提心吊胆的生活来说，要好些。

经典英语小故事（六）：

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。"

英文童话故事1

黄鼠狼和人

A man once caught a weasel, which was always sneaking1 about the house, and was just going to drown it in a tub of water, when it begged hard for its life, and said to him, "Surely you haven't the heart to put me to death? Think how useful I have been in clearing your house of the mice and lizards2 which used to infest3 it, and show your gratitude4 by sparing my life." "You have not been altogether useless, I grant you," said the Man: "but who killed the fowls5? Who stole the meat? No no! You do much more harm than good, and die you shall."

从前，有一个人抓住了一只黄鼠狼，它总是在房子里偷偷摸摸。这人正要用一盆水淹死它时，黄鼠狼苦苦哀求人饶了自己的性命，并且对人说：“你一定不忍心杀了我!想想我对你们家做的贡献吧，我可是一只在清理你家里的老鼠和蜥蜴，为了显示你对我的感激之情，就饶我一命吧。”“我也承认，你并非完全无用，” 男人说， “但是，是谁杀了鸡?是谁偷了肉?不不!你做了太多坏事，理应去死。”

英文童话故事2

The Miser

A MISER sold all that he had and bought a lump of gold, which he buried in a hole in the ground by the side of an old wall and went to look at daily. One of his workmen observed his frequent visits to the spot and decided to watch his movements. He soon discovered the secret of the hidden treasure, and digging down, came to the lump of gold, and stole it. The Miser, on his next visit, found the hole empty and began to tear his hair and to make loud lamentations. A neighbor, seeing him overcome with grief and learning the cause, said, "Pray do not grieve so; but go and take a stone, and place it in the hole, and fancy that the gold is still lying there. It will do you quite the same service; for when the gold was there, you had it not, as you did not make the slightest use of it."

守财奴

有个守财奴变卖了他所有的家产，换回了金块，并秘密地埋在一个地方。他每天走去看 看他的宝藏。有个在附近放羊的牧人留心观察，知道了真情，趁他走后，挖出金块拿走了。 守财奴再来时，发现洞中的金块没有了，便捶胸痛哭。有个人见他如此悲痛，问明原因后， 说道：“喂，朋友，别再难过了，那块金子虽是你买来的，但并不是你真正拥有的。去拿一 块石头来，代替金块放在洞里，只要你心里想着那是块金子，你就会很高兴。这样与你拥有 真正的金块效果没什么不同。依我之见，你拥有那金块时，也从没用过。”

英文童话故事3

Once upon a time a wolf was lapping at a stream. When he looked up, he saw a lamb drinking a little lower down.

"There’s my supper," he thought. "I will find some excuse to catch it." Then he called out to the lamb, "How dare you muddle the water?" "No, master," said the lamb. "I cannot muddle your water because it runs down from you to me."

"Well, then," said the wolf. "Why did you call me bad names this time last year?" "It was impossible," said the lamb. "I am only six months old."

"I don’t care," shouted the wolf. "If it was not you, it must be your father." After that he rushed at the poor little lamb and ate it up.

“那是我的晚餐，”狼想，“我要找一个借口吃掉他。”于是，他恶狠狠地对小羊说：“你怎么敢搅浑浊了我的水?”“我没有，先生，”小羊回答说，“我在下游喝水，怎么能搅浑浊你喝的水呢?”

“那么，”狼见此计不成，又说道，“你去年的今天为什么说我的坏话?”“不可能，”小羊说，“我现在才只有六个月大。”

“我不管，”狼说，“如果不是你，就是你的爸爸。”说完，他就冲向小山羊，把他吃掉了。
