⑴ 適合短時間閱讀的英語小故事

1. A man was going to the house of some rich person. As he went along the road, he saw a box of good apples at the side of the road. He said, "I do not want to eat those apples; for the rich man will give me much food; he will give me very nice food to eat." Then he took the apples and threw them away into the st.

   He went on and came to a river. The river had become very big; so he could not go over it. He waited for some time; then he said, "I cannot go to the rich man's house today, for I cannot get over the river."

   He began to go home. He had eaten no food that day. He began to want food. He came to the apples, and he was glad to take them out of the st and eat them.

   Do not throw good things away; you may be glad to have them at some other time.

   解釋：

   一個人正朝著一個富人的房子走去，當他沿著路走時，在路的一邊他發現一箱好蘋果，他說：「我不打算吃那些蘋果，因為富人會給我更多的食物，他會給我很好吃的東西。」然後他拿起蘋果，一把扔到土裡去。

   他繼續走，來到河邊，河漲水了，因此，他到不了河對岸，他等了一會兒，然後他說：「今天我去不了富人家了，因為我不能渡過河。」

   他開始回家，那天他沒有吃東西。他就開始去找吃的，他找到蘋果，很高興地把它們從塵土中翻出來吃了。

   不要把好東西扔掉，換個時候你會覺得它們大有用處。

2. 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 be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young."

   解釋：

   一位老婦有隻貓，這只貓很老，它跑不快了，也咬不了東西，因為它年紀太大了。一天，老貓發現一隻老鼠，它跳過去抓這只老鼠，然而，它咬不住這只老鼠。因此，老鼠從它的嘴邊溜掉了，因為老貓咬不了它。

   於是，老婦很生氣，因為老貓沒有把老鼠咬死。她開始打這只貓，貓說：「不要打你的老僕人，我已經為你服務了很多年，而且還願意為你效勞，但是，我實在太老了，對年紀大的不要這么無情，要記住老年人在年青時所做過的有益的事情。」

⑶ 有哪些英國短篇小說適合英語專業的學生閱讀

（《木馬贏家》）講述了一個家庭被金錢蒙蔽了雙眼，親情不再，人與人專之間的關系被物質異化屬的故事。一向都是勞倫斯最擅長描繪的物質主義下人的異變的故事。勞倫斯的詞句不難，但是每個詞底下暗流涌動，生機勃勃，文風自成一派。作為初入門的勞倫斯研究者，我覺得開口評價這位英國文學大師，已經誠惶誠恐。勞倫斯的長篇小說如《查泰萊夫人的情人》，《兒子與情人》都膾炙人口，但是短篇小說也許在國內受眾不多。這篇"TheRocking-HorseWinner"是不可多得的佳作，值得一讀。

⑷ 急需一篇英文短篇故事 要有意思 有內涵 大學生用的。不要太幼稚 閱讀時間7分鍾左右

YOUTH青春
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
青春不是年華，而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，恢宏的想像，炙熱的戀情；青春是生命的深泉在涌流。

Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.
青春氣貫長虹，勇銳蓋過怯弱，進取壓倒苟安。如此銳氣，二十後生而有之，六旬男子則更多見。年歲有加，並非垂老，理想丟棄，方墮暮年。

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 st.
歲月悠悠，衰微只及肌膚；熱忱拋卻，頹廢必致靈魂。憂煩，惶恐，喪失自信，定使心靈扭曲，意氣如灰。

Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being』s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing child like appetite for 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, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you are young.
無論年屆花甲，擬或二八芳齡，心中皆有生命之歡樂，奇跡之誘惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一台天線，只要你從天上人間接受美好、希望、歡樂、勇氣和力量的信號，你就青春永駐，風華常存。

When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you』ve grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there』s hope you may die young at 80.
一旦天線下降，銳氣便被冰雪覆蓋，玩世不恭、自暴自棄油然而生，即使年方二十，實已垂垂老矣；然則只要樹起天線，捕捉樂觀信號，你就有望在八十高齡告別塵寰時仍覺年輕。

⑸ 如何閱讀英語原文小說呀求具體方法

其實高中之後，慢慢的有接觸一些國外小說，看國外的小說的感覺和中國的感受是完全不一樣的，英文經典小說。一入文學深似海呀！但是翻譯過來的總是覺得有些別扭，所以開始在慢慢學著閱讀英文原文小說，也總結了我的步驟給大家，個人認為這個可以分成三個階段：

第一階，短篇小說

剛開始准備閱讀英文原文小說的時候，可以找一些短篇小說，因為作品太長很容易覺得枯燥而就放棄了閱讀，所以找一些有趣的短篇小說，可以增加我們閱讀的樂趣。推薦幾篇我個人非常喜歡的：William Faulkner的A rose for Emily（這個簡直最愛啊，不過要了解作品大背景哈，可以先讀一遍，然後看看歷史，再體會一下），Washington Irving的The legend of the Sleepy Hollow, Rip Van Winkle(很有意思！）Allen Poe的大部分短篇，不過稍難，還有歐亨利的等等。不建議買短篇小說集，大家可以在網上找，看完一篇以後，找相關鏈接的去讀，因為短篇小說集其實很多很無聊哈，這個看個人興趣愛好。

最後，接下來估計就是各種哲學，宗教書籍了。多說一句，Dan Brown的一系列書如達芬奇密碼，天使與魔鬼還是很值得一看的哈！你不會後悔的，但是要在至少攻關探索第二階再開始，否則很難進行。

⑺ 一篇英文短篇小說的英文版簡介，應付作業啊，一定要快

The Gift of the Magi

Mr. James Dillingham Young ("Jim") and his wife, Della, are a couple living in a modestflat. They each have only one possession in which they take pride: Della's beautiful long, flowing hair, almost to her knees and Jim's shiny gold watch, which had belonged to hisfather and grandfather.
On Christmas Eve, with only $1.87 in hand, and desperate to find a gift for Jim, Della sells her hair for $20, and eventually finds a platinum fob chain for Jim's watch for $21. She found the perfect gift at last and runs home and begins to prepare dinner, with 87 cents left.
When Jim comes home, he looks at Della with a strange expression. Della then admits to Jim that she sold her hair to buy him his present. Jim gives Della her present — an assortment of expensive hair accessories (referred to as 「The Combs」), useless now that her hair is short. Della then shows Jim the chain she bought for him, to which Jim says he sold his watch to get the money to buy her combs. Although Jim and Della are now left with gifts that neither one can use, they realize how far they are willing to go to show their love for each other, and how priceless their love really is.

⑼ 英語短篇故事

1.Once a fox invited a stork to dinner. He put nothing on the table except some soup in a very shallow dish.

The fox could easily lap up the soup, but the stork could only wet the end of her long bill in it. When she left the meal, she was still very hungry. "I am sorry," said the fox, "the soup is not to your taste."

"Please do not apologize," said the stork. "I hope you will come to my house, and dine with me soon."

A few days later the fox visited the stork. He found that his food was put in a long bottle, and the mouth of the bottle was very narrow. He could not insert his big mouth into it, so he ate nothing.

"I will not apologize," said the stork. "One bad turn deserves another."

一次，狐狸請鸛來吃飯。他除了淺盤子中的一點湯以外，什麼也沒有準備。
狐狸可以輕而易舉地喝到湯，但是鸛只夠蘸濕他長長的嘴尖。吃完飯後，鸛仍舊很飢餓。"很抱歉！"狐狸說，"這湯不合你的口味"。
"別客氣，"鸛說，"過幾天請到我家來和我一起吃飯吧。"
幾天後，狐狸應邀而至，他發現食物都裝在一個長長的瓶子里，而瓶口很細，他無法將他的大嘴伸進去，什麼也吃不到。
"我不想道歉，這是你應得的回報。"鸛說。

2.A woman was singing. One of the guests turned to a man
by his side and criticized the singer.
"What a terrible voice!"he said. "Do you know who she is?"
"yes." was the answer,"she is my wife."
"Oh,I beg your parden," the man said. "Of course her voice
isn't bad, but the song is very bad. I wondered who wrote that awful song?"
" I did," was the answer.

有一個婦女在唱歌。一個賓館的客人對旁邊的男人問道：「這是多麼可怕的歌聲啊，你知道她是誰？」

「是的」，男人回答到「他是我妻子」。

「OH，我的兄弟，其實她的聲音並不難聽，主要是這歌詞寫的不好，是誰寫的這么可怕的歌詞？」

「我寫的」男人回答道.
