A woman was waiting at an airport one night, with several long hours before her flight. She hunted for a book in the airport shops, bought a bag of cookies and found a place to drop. She was engrossed in her book but happened to see that the man sitting beside her, as bold as could be, grabbed a cookie or two from the bag in between, which she tried to ignore to avoid a scene. So she munched the cookies and watched the clock, as the gutsy cookie thief diminished her stock.She was getting more irritated as the minutes ticked by, thinking, “If I wasn't so nice, I would blacken his eye.” With each cookie she took, he took one too. When only one was left, she wondered what he would do. With a smile on his face, and a nervous laugh, he took the last cookie and broke it in half. He offered her half, as he ate the other. She snatched it from him and thought。
oooh, brother. This guy has some nerve and he's also rude. Why he didn't even show any gratitude! She had never known when she had been so galled and sighed with relief when her flight was called. She gathered her belongings and headed to the gate, refusing to look back at the ingrate thief. She boarded the plane, and sank in her seat. Then she sought her book, which was almost complete. As she reached in her baggage, she gasped with surprise. There was her bag of cookies, in front of her eyes. If mine are here, she moaned in despair, the others were his, and he tried to share. Too late to apologize, she realized with grief, that she was the rude one, the ingrate, the thief. How many times in our lives have we absolutely known that something was a certain way, only to discover later that what we believed to be true。was not？ 一天晚上，一位女士在機場候機，她的航班還要等上很長的幾個小時。
她在機場的商店里找了一本書，買下一袋曲奇餅，找了一個地方坐下。她全神貫注地讀著書，忽然看見坐在她旁邊的一個男子居然大膽地從他們之間的曲奇餅袋子里拿走了一兩塊去吃。
為了不當眾發(fā)脾氣，她盡量假裝沒有看見，使勁地嚼著曲奇餅，一邊看著表，而那個可惡的曲奇餅小偷正在使她的存貨不斷減少。時間一分一秒地過去，她越來越生氣，心想：“要不是我脾氣好，我早把他的眼睛打青了！”就這樣，她拿一塊曲奇餅，他也拿一塊，剩了最后一塊時，她不知道對方會怎樣做。
他呢，臉上帶著微笑，又有些緊張，把最后一塊曲奇拿起來，掰成兩半，給她一半，自己把另一半吃了。她從對方手里奪下半塊曲奇，想，哦，老兄！這家伙有點太膽大、太無理了。
他竟然都沒有露出一點感激的意思！她從來也沒有像這樣惱怒過，所以在她的航班通告響起時，她如釋重負地嘆了口氣。她收拾好了行李，走向登機口，根本不想再看一眼那忘恩負義的小偷。
登機之后，她舒適地坐在座位上，開始找那本馬上就要看完的書。就在她夠到行李時， 卻驚訝地喘不過氣來。
她的曲奇餅不就放在自己眼前嗎？她絕望地喃喃著，如果這是我的，那么那些曲奇就是他的啦，是他在和我分享。她悲哀地意識到，道歉已經太晚，她才是那個不講理的、忘恩負義的、偷了曲奇餅的人。
在我們的生活中，有多少次我們認為事情就是那樣的，而后來才發(fā)現我們認為是真相的東西…來并非真相？。

A pairy friend神奇的朋友Peter was a little boy. His parents were very busy with their work, so he was usually very lonely. One day, Peter sat in the garden playing alone, and he really wished that he could have a friend to play with.Suddenly, Peter saw a purple-winged fairy sitting on a rose. " " Hi! I am Peter. Who are you? " asked Peter. " I am a fairy named Sara," said the fairy." Hi! Sara, would you like to be my friend and play with me? " asked Peter. "Yes, I'd love to." Sara replied. Sara then sat on Peter's knee and talked happily about her fairyland." There are many beautiful flowers in my homeland. I like to ride on the wind and play with the sky-horses," said Sara. " Fantastic!" said Peter.They became good friends. However, Sara needed to go home, so Peter was sad. "Don't be sad, Peter, I'll pray for your happiness. And I'll come and visit you someday." said Sara." I'll miss you, Sara." said Peter. Peter was glad that he had a fairy friend now.譯：小男孩彼得的父母非常忙于工作，因此他常常感到寂寞。
有一天，彼得坐在花園里獨自玩耍，他真希望能有人與他一起玩。 突然間他看到一個紫色翅膀的仙子坐在玫瑰花上。
“嗨！我是彼得，你是誰？”彼得不禁問起仙子。仙子回答彼得：“我是小仙女莎拉。”

“真是太棒了！”彼得不可思議地回答。 他們兩人從此成為好朋友。

我會為你的幸福而祈禱。而且我會再回來看你的?！?/p>

Snow-whiteOnce 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 。

英語小故事—The Real Princess 小學403字 There was once a prince who wished to marry a princess; but then she must be a real princess. He travelled all over the world in hopes of finding such a lady; but there was always something wrong. Princesses he found in plenty; but whether they were real princesses it was impossible for him to decide, for now one thing, now another, seemed to him not quite right about the ladies. At last he returned to his palace quite cast down, because he wished so much to have a real Princess for his wife.從前有一位王子，他想找一位公主結婚，但她必須是一位真正的公主。
他走遍了全世界，想要尋到這樣的一位公主?？墒菬o論他到什么地方，他總是碰到一些障礙。
公主倒有的是，不過他沒有辦法斷定她們究竟是不是真正的公主，她們好象總是有些地方不大對頭。結果，他只好回到自己的皇宮來，心中很不快活，因為他是那么渴望著得到一位真正的公主。
One evening a fearful tempest arose, it thundered and lightened, and the rain poured down from the sky in torrents: besides, it was as dark as pitch. All at once there was heard a violent knocking at the door, and the old King, the Prince's father, went out himself to open it.It was a princess who was standing outside the door. What with the rain and the wind, she was in a sad condition; the water trickled down from her hair, and her clothes clung to her body. She said she was a real princess.有一天晚上，忽然起了一陣可怕的暴風雨。天空中風馳電掣，大雨傾盆而降，四周一片漆黑。
就在這時，響起了一陣劇烈的敲門聲，老國王自己去開門。站在城外的是一位公主。
可是，天哪！經過了風吹雨打之后，她的樣子是多么難看??！水沿著她的頭發(fā)和向下面流，她的衣服粘在身上。她說她是真正的公主。
Ah! we shall soon see that! thought the old Queen-mother; however, she said not a word of what she was going to do; but went quietly into the bedroom, took all the bed-clothes off the bed, and put a little pea on the bedstead. She then laid twenty mattresses one upon another over the pea, and put twenty feather beds over the mattresses.Upon this bed the Princess was to pass the night.是的，這點我們馬上就可以考查出來。 老皇后心里想，可是她什么也沒說。
她靜靜地走進臥房，把所有的被褥都搬開，在床榻上放了一粒豌豆。然后她取出二十床墊子，把它們壓在豌豆上。
隨后，她又在這些墊子上放了二十床鴨絨被。這位公主夜里就睡在這些東西上面。
The next morning she was asked how she had slept. Oh, very badly indeed! she replied. I have scarcely closed my eyes the whole night through. I do not know what was in my bed, but I had something hard under me, and am all over black and blue. It has hurt me so much!Now it was plain that the lady must be a real Princess, since she had been able to feel the little pea through the twenty mattresses and twenty feather beds. None but a real Princess could have had such a delicate sense of feeling.So the prince took her for his wife, for now he knew that he had a real princess; and the pea was put in the museum, where it may still be seen, if no one has stolen it.豌豆公主 第二天早晨大家問她昨晚睡得怎樣。 啊，不舒服極了！ 公主說， 我差不多整夜沒合上眼！天曉得我床上有件什么東西？我睡到一塊很硬的東西上面，弄得我全身發(fā)青發(fā)紫，這真怕人！現在大家就看出來了。
她是一位真正的公主，因為壓在這二十床墊子和二十床鴨絨被下面的一粒豌豆，她居然還能感覺得出來。除了真正的公主以外，任何人都不會有這么嫩的皮膚的。
因此那位王子就選她為妻子了，因為現在他知道他得到了一位真正的公主。這粒豌豆因此也就被送進了博物館，如果沒有人把它拿走的話，人們現在還可以在那兒看到它呢。

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。seasons in the sun的故事seasons in the sun是westlife一首很著名的歌，三個人，我們姑且稱他們?yōu)锳、B、C。
在50年代的法國鄉(xiāng)村，他們是同一所高中的同學。A和C是從小一起長大的、最要好的朋友，B是漂亮的女孩。
通常在這種故事里，我們很容易想象發(fā)生了什么事情，A和C同時愛上了B。A是那種很陽光、很樂觀、很拉 風的男孩，是學校的運動明星，是很多情竇初開的少女仰慕的對象。
生活對于A來說 充滿的只是快樂和單純。而C害羞、內斂，畫得一手好畫。
早在A和B相愛之前，C已經默默的愛了B很久，但是沒有人知道。這份愛被藏在心底，直到畢業(yè)后A參軍、C成為 一名木匠，直到戰(zhàn)后A返回家鄉(xiāng)和B結婚，直到婚后A找到工作當上一名貨車司機……A經常離家工作很長時間，B打理著外婆留下的鄉(xiāng)村雜貨店，有太多的事情需要男人的幫忙，C就這樣擔負起了照顧年輕的母女的責任。
天長日久，大家都想象得到的事情就那樣發(fā)生了。A樂觀的天性加上對妻子的愛、對摯友的信任使他對此茫然無知。
直到一個大雪封路的冬天，A在出車的半夜折返家中，發(fā)現了一切……面對驟然被生命中最重要的兩個人出賣這個難以接受的事實，A失去控制殺死了他們。當天深夜，A向警察局自首，兩個月后被判一級謀殺罪名成立，于第二年初春執(zhí)行死刑。
在死刑執(zhí)行前的第三天，A在獄中寫了三段話，分別寫給他最好的朋友C、他的父親和他四歲的女兒。在即將離開人世的時刻，他仍然將C看作最好的、生命中最值得信賴的朋友。
這個A，叫做Jacques Brel。他寫下的這段話最初的名字叫"Le Moribund"，直譯的意思是"the dying man"。
Rod McKuen將之翻譯成英語，并套上一首法語歌的旋律，這就是最初的"seasons in the sun"。十年后，Terry Jacks無意中聽到了這首歌，經過他的演繹，歌曲從此紅遍全球，被很多很多人翻唱，其中最著名的就是westlife。
只要稍稍想到那個三天后就要離去的人是以怎樣的心情在懷念活著的幸福、告別自己年邁的父親和四歲的女兒，只要稍稍想到他的父親和女兒在看到這些話 時心中劇烈的激蕩……我無言。Jacques Brel用美好的筆調歌頌生命的多彩和絢爛，卻讓聆聽的人更加忍不住潸然淚下。
對比Terry和westlife的版本，顯然westlife的音樂制作 要好很多，但從表現一個真正面臨死亡的人的心境來說，我喜歡Terry，也更能理解為什么歌中反復強調：It's hard to die.A and B were best friends when they were young boys ,they were born in the same neighbourhood ,played together ,studied in the same school.Their relation was so intimate,but there was too many differences in their characters.A was a sunny and charming boy ,be good at sports,then a lot of girls came to him .Otherwise ,B alwayskeep silence ,he was sensitive and shy ,and didn't know howto express himself,but he could do excellent craft.It is funny that both of them were falling in love with a beautiful girl C.You know the result ,A and C got marriedand they birthed a little daughter.In order to give a better life for the little life ,A should delivery goods to somewhere too far away for many days .Then it is a good chance for B to take care of C and 。
9.簡短的英語故事,帶翻譯
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 be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young." 【譯文】 老貓 一位老婦有只貓，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(fā)現一只老鼠，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。
于是，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：“不要打你的老仆人，我已經為你服務了很多年，而且還愿意為你效勞，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?！?/p>
A Good Boy Little Robert asked his mother for two cents. "What did you do with the money I gave you yesterday?" "I gave it to a poor old woman," he answered. "You're a good boy," said the mother proudly. "Here are two cents more. But why are you so interested in the old woman?" "She is the one who sells the candy." 好孩子 小羅伯特向媽媽要兩分錢。 “昨天給你的錢干什么了？” “我給了一個可憐的老太婆，”他回答說。
“你真是個好孩子，”媽媽驕傲地說?！霸俳o你兩分錢。
可你為什么對那位老太太那么感興趣呢？” “她是個賣糖果的?！?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 dust. 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 dust and eat them. Do not throw good things away; you may be glad to have them at some other time. 【譯文】 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(fā)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?！?/p>
然后他拿起蘋果，一把扔到土里去。 他繼續(xù)走，來到河邊，河漲水了，因此，他到不了河對岸，他等了一會兒，然后他說：“今天我去不了富人家了，因為我不能渡過河?！?/p>
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。
