▰ 英语小故事 ▰
如果故事里的“富二代”琼斯，在自己家庭很富裕时，拒绝了自己感兴趣但是很累很苦很低贱的“铁匠”工作时，那么当家产在意外中失去时，他该拿什么来维持生计?一个很小的决定，就可能改变你的一生;一件很小的事，却有很大的意义。
The hardworking blacksmith Jones used to work all day in his shop and so hard working was he that at times he would make the sparks fly from his hammer.
琼斯是个非常勤劳的铁匠，常常一整天都在店里工作。他工作非常努力，他的铁锤下常常是火花飞舞。
The son of Mr. Smith, a rich neighbor, used to come to see the blacksmith everyday and for hours and hours he would enjoy himself watching how the tradesman worked.
邻居史密斯先生很有钱，他的儿子常常来看琼斯打铁。他喜欢看这位工匠工作，常常一看就是几个小时。
"Young man, why don't you try your hand to learn to make shoe tacks, even if it is only to pass the time?" said the blacksmith. "Who knows, one day, it may be of use to you."
“年轻人，为什么不亲自尝试一下如何制作鞋钉呢，哪怕只是为了消磨时间?”铁匠说，“没准，有一天它会对你有帮助。”
The lazy boy began to see what he could do. But after a little practice he found that he was becoming very skilled and soon he was making some of the finest tacks.
懒懒的孩子开始想看看自己到底能做什么。然而，仅仅经过很短的练习，他便发现自己非常熟练起来，很快他就做出了最好的鞋钉。
Old Mr. Smith died and the son on account of the war lost all his goods. He had to leave home and was forced to take up residence in another country. It so happened that in this village there were numerous shoemakers who were spending a lot of money to buy tacks for their shoes and even at times when they paid high prices they were not always able to get what they wanted, because in that part of the country there was a high demand for soldiers' shoes.
老史密斯先生去世了，而他的儿子则因为战争的缘故失去了所有的财产。他不得不离开家园，在另外一个国家住了下来。巧的是，这个国家的这个地区，急需大量军鞋，所以这个村子里有很多鞋匠，他们总是花费很多钱购买鞋钉。有时，即使付了很高的价钱，也买不到他们想要的鞋钉。
Our young Mr. Smith, who was finding it difficult to earn his daily bread, remembered that once upon a time he had learned the art of making tacks and had the sudden idea of making a bargain with the shoemakers. He told them that he would make the tacks if they would help to get him settled in his workshop. The shoemakers were only too glad of the offer. And after a while, Mr. Smith found that he was soon making the finest tacks in the village.
在这食不果腹的困难时刻，年轻的史密斯记起自己曾学过制鞋钉这门手艺，便突发奇想，想和这些鞋匠们做一个交易。他对他们说，如果他们可以帮助他成立一个店铺，他就可以做鞋钉。鞋匠们对他的这一提议欣喜若狂。很快，史密斯发现他做的鞋钉是村里面最好的。
"How funny it seems," he used to say, "even making tacks can bring a fortune. My trade is more useful to me than were all my former riches."
“这真是有趣，”他常常会说，“即便是做鞋钉也会带来财富。与我以前所有的财富相比，我现在做的事情对于我来说更有用。”

▰ 英语小故事 ▰
去过庙的人都知道，一进庙门，首先是弥陀佛，笑脸迎客，而在他的北面，则是黑口黑脸的韦陀。但相传在很久以前，他们并不在同一个庙里，而是分别掌管不同的庙。
弥乐佛热情快乐，所以来的人非常多，但他什么都不在乎，丢三拉四，没有好好的管理账务，所以依然入不敷出。而韦陀虽然管账是一把好手，但成天阴着个脸，太过严肃，搞得人越来越少，最后香火断绝。
佛祖在查香火的时候发现了这个问题，就将他们俩放在同一个庙里，由弥乐佛负责公关，笑迎八方客，于是香火大旺。而韦陀铁面无私，锱珠必较，则让他负责财务，严格把关。在两人的分工合作中，庙里一派欣欣向荣景象。
寓意：其实在用人大师的眼里，没有废人，正如武功高手，不需名贵宝剑，摘花飞叶即可伤人，关键看如何运用。
有个鲁国人擅长编草鞋，他妻子擅长织白绢。他想迁到越国去。友人对他说：“你到越国去，一定会贫穷的。”“为什么?”“草鞋，是用来穿着走路的，但越国人习惯于赤足走路;白绢，是用来做帽子的，但越国人习惯于披头散发。凭着你的长处，到用不到你的地方去，这样，要使自己不贫穷，难道可能吗?”
寓意：一个人要发挥其专长，就必须适合社会环境需要。如果脱离社会环境的需要，其专长也就失去了价值。因此，我们要根据社会得需要，决定自己的行动，更好去发挥自己的专长。
一天动物园管理员发现袋鼠从笼子里跑出来了，于是开会讨论，一致认为是笼子的高度过低。所以他们决定将笼子的高度由原来的10米加高到20米。结果第二天他们发现袋鼠还是跑到外面来，所以他们又决定再将高度加高到30米。
没想到隔天居然又看到袋鼠全跑到外面，于是管理员们大为紧张，决定一不做二不休，将笼子的高度加高到100米。
一天长颈鹿和几只袋鼠们在闲聊，“你们看，这些人会不会再继续加高你们的笼子?长颈鹿问。“很难说。袋鼠说∶“如果他们再继续忘记关门的话!
寓意：事有“本末、“轻重、“缓急，关门是本，加高笼子是末，舍本而逐末，当然就不得要领了。
魏文王问名医扁鹊说：“你们家兄弟三人，都精于医术，到底哪一位最好呢?
扁鹊答：“长兄治病，是治病于病情发作之前。由于一般人不知道他事先能铲除病因，所以他的名气无法传出去;中兄治病，是治病于病情初起时。一般人以为他只能治轻微的小病，所以他的名气只及本乡里。而我是治病于病情严重之时。一般人都看到我在经脉上穿针管放血、在皮肤上敷药等大手术，所以以为我的医术高明，名气因此响遍全国。
寓意：事后控制不如事中控制，事中控制不如事前控制。
有位客人到某人家里做客，看见主人家的灶上烟囱是直的，旁边又有很多木材。客人告诉主人说，烟囱要改曲，木材须移去，否则将来可能会有火灾，主人听了没有作任何表示。
不久主人家里果然失火，四周的邻居赶紧跑来救火，最后火被扑灭了，于是主人烹羊宰牛，宴请四邻，以酬谢他们救火的功劳，但并没有请当初建议他将木材移走，烟囱改曲的人。
有人对主人说：“如果当初听了那位先生的话，今天也不用准备筵席，而且没有火灾的损失，现在论功行赏，原先给你建议的人没有被感恩，而救火的人却是座上客，真是很奇怪的事呢!主人顿时省悟，赶紧去邀请当初给予建议的那个客人来吃酒。
寓意：预防重于治疗，能防患于未然之前，更胜于治乱于已成之后。

超级简单英语小故事2:The Athenian and the Theban
An Athenian and a Theban were on the road together, and passed the time in conversation, as is the way of travelers. After discussing a variety of subjects they began to talk about heroes, a topic that tends to be more fertile than edifying. Each of them was lavish in his praises of the heroes of his own city, until eventually the Theban asserted that Hercules was the greatest hero who had ever lived on earth, and now occupied a foremost place among the gods; while the Athenian insisted that .
Theseus was far superior, for his fortune had been in every waysupremely blessed, whereas Hercules had at one time been forced to act as a servant. And he gained his point, for he was a very glib fellow, like all Athenians; so that the Theban, who was no match for him in talking; cried at last in some disgust, “
All right, have your way; I only hope that, when our heroes are angry with us, Athens may suffer from the anger of Hercules, and Thebes only from that of Theseus.”

一天，百兽之王让一只小猫去看看他的宫殿建造得怎么样。几个小时之后，小猫回来了，对老虎说：“您的宫殿非常大，又高又漂亮。”几天后，老虎又让一只猪去看看。他说：“去看看我的宫殿建造得如何。”但是，猪回来之后却对老虎说：“亲爱的国王陛下，虽然您的宫殿很漂亮，但是它只容得下您自己。”
老虎听到这些话感到很吃惊。“为什么猫和猪说的话不一样呢?”老虎自语着。然后他又让一头骆驼去看一看。骆驼很快便气喘吁吁地跑回来了，它对老虎说：“我的国王，您的宫殿对于您来说，实在是太小了，都没法住。”当老虎听到骆驼所说的话时，变得非常生气。他生气地对动物们说：“你们三个人中有人说谎了，三个人有三个看法。我要处死你们。”就在这时，一只狐狸过来阻止老虎那样做。他请求老虎在杀他们之前，自己亲自去看看。老虎亲自看完宫殿后，认为他们的答案都是对的。他对动物们说：“眼见为实，耳听为虚。”
▰ 英语小故事 ▰
的某个下午，阳光透过树叶间的空隙漏下来，在地上铺洒出一片斑驳发亮的光影。苏末坐在学校篮球场边的树阴下，正在考虑是不是要在这里继续读书，或者让父母给安排去一所重点中学。一个篮球流弹般突然向苏末直直地飞来，苏末还来不及反应，只听见“砰”的一声，有人用手臂挡开了篮球。
“你没事吧?”气喘吁吁的林又南抱着篮球，紧张地站在苏末的面前，汗珠在阳光下折射出明亮的光芒。
嗯，苏末不知所措地点点头。
林又南有着寒星般明亮的眼睛，嘴角藏着一抹若有若无的笑意，转身离开的时候，深深地看了苏末一眼，那一眼，仿佛要看到人的心里去。
才不要回去呢，苏末忽然觉得这个学校如此美好。
开学没多久，学校举行校际篮球赛，林又南大出风头，很快成为全班女生心目中的偶像。越来越多的女生要林又南教她们打篮球。有人说，林又南，你教我打球吧，我篮球考试不及格。中午的教室安静又空旷，坐在墙边的苏末忽地抬头，正好撞见林又南深黑的双眼，林又南意味深长地看了苏末一眼，一脸坏笑，不行啊，我已经答应教别人打球了。
苏末低头浅笑，心安又心乱。
暧昧像海底的水草疯狂生长，却又飘忽不定，可正因如此，更加无以言表。
林又南身上有着难以名状的距离感，打篮球喜欢一人作战，吃饭喜欢独坐一角，3000米长跑摔得不轻仍然第一个冲线。他一个人坐在跑道上给伤口涂酒精，落日的余晖把他的身影拉得又细又长。苏末站在他身后对他说，去医务室吧。林又南不做声，忽然抬头，苏末你想考什么样的大学?
什么样的?不知道，不过至少得离开这儿吧。
20xx年高中毕业，苏末到省会长沙上大学。林又南留在了家乡那座小城。
大学校园从来就是恋爱的天堂。19岁的苏末眼神明媚，这样的女孩儿似乎没有理由让人不喜欢。最轰动的一次是系里的元旦晚会。六个帅气的男生组合带来的劲爆热舞是整场晚会的焦点，节目演完，领舞的男生站在台上迟迟不肯谢幕，他的头发上不知是汗水还是亮片纸，在灯光下闪闪发光。男生说，我的舞为你而跳，苏末，你在吗?
大礼堂沉默了片刻，继而尖叫如雷，人人兴奋地询问，苏末是谁，苏末在哪里?
男孩们的爱意，肤浅又狂热。可是不得不承认，对年轻的苏末们来说，或许只有这种肤浅才恰恰是关于爱的最原始的证明。
室友们对这种八卦趣味盎然，她们追着苏末问她到底喜欢什么样的男生。
苏末喜欢什么样的?苏末喜欢寒星般明亮的眼睛，苏末喜欢被风扬起的蓝色衬衣，苏末喜欢修长手指拨弄篮球。
苏末喜欢林又南。
而林又南，除了偶尔在QQ上给苏末留下短暂的问候，别无他言。
苏末觉得，林又南有时候就像一阵风，从未痕迹清晰，却也从未消逝散尽。
苏末有时候会给林又南写信。
每一封信，苏末都是决定把它寄出去的，可是每每快走到邮箱前，又莫名地止住了脚步。
一个女孩子，年轻的时候得到太多来自异性的宠爱，她便会习惯做爱情里骄傲的那一个，便会认为所有喜欢她的男生都是一样的狂热执著，义无反顾。
大三那年的生日，林又南终于出现在苏末面前。
于是几个朋友一起吃饭。大家都到齐后，苏末笑着说，等一下，还有人没来。不一会儿进来一个满脸堆笑的男生，手里捧着一大束鲜艳的红玫瑰。
几个女生立刻尖叫起来。苏末介绍说，这是我的高中同学林又南。
你好。你好。
林又南带着笑容站起来，跟男生握手，风度依然。
20xx年大学毕业，林又南在家里的安排下留在家乡做了一名公务员。看惯了高楼大厦，熙攘人群，车水马龙，苏末不想回去。不想回去就要付出代价。
老式小区的一楼阴暗潮湿，可是离市区近，上班方便，苏末毫不犹豫地租下来。加班已成为家常便饭，回到出租屋里，已经是晚上9点，却还没吃晚饭，半年下来，瘦了一大圈。
林又南给苏末发短信，不好，就还是回来吧。
苏末此时正一个人翻炒昨天的剩饭，她看了看锅里快要炒煳的蛋炒饭，飞快地把短信删掉。那天的晚餐，苏末觉得索然无味。
除了吃饭睡觉，苏末几乎把所有的时间都花在了工作上。她开始学会如何在领导面前恰到好处地表现自己，学会在复杂的人际关系中自我保全，公司上下人人视其为潜力股，是职场白骨精的前身。升职、加薪，出国学习，不过两年的光景，苏末在这个城市站住了脚。她给自己买昂贵的鞋和包包，一个人在市中心租了高档公寓，站在落地窗边可以望到远处的江水。苏末在心里说，林又南，我只想让你看到很好的我，更好的我才值得让你奋不顾身。
年底回老家，苏末跟高中同学聚会。她恰到好处地照顾席间的各个同学，记得每个人喜欢吃什么，不喜欢吃什么，谈笑风生，不会冷落了任何一个。
林又南安安静静地坐在一边，他问，现在过得好吗?
很好啊，苏末说自己创作的广告被业内一本专业杂志刊登，很有影响力，应该有拿奖的可能;前不久去了巴黎考察学习，终于见到了传说中的埃菲尔铁塔，其实也很普通;苏末说长沙快要修地铁了，在地铁边准备买一套小公寓，以后应该会很方便……
林又南笑了笑，你以前不太爱说话，也不会照顾别人。
苏末也笑了，那是不是说明我变得成熟了。
林又南没做声，苏末抬头看见了林又南的眼睛，他的眼神欲言又止，让人难以捉摸，甚至，还有一丝悲伤。
聚会结束的晚上，林又南给苏末打了个电话。电话里他的声音听起来有些疲惫，他说，苏末，你知道吗，你好到让我已经追不上了。
苏末缓缓地挂掉电话，心想，林又南也许喝醉了吧。
20xx年，苏末的生活在悄悄发生着变化。林又南连夜开车到长沙，第一次跟苏末单独见面。林又南说，苏末，我要结婚了。
嗯。苏末不知所措地点头，茫然得一如当初见面时一模一样。
林又南沉默无语，送苏末回家。走到小区门口，林又南说，很晚了，你上楼吧。
嗯。
林又南点点头，那我先走了。
哦。
你……林又南刚走出几步，又缓缓回过头。苏末静静地站在原地。
林又南走上前，伸出手，似乎想要拥抱苏末，顿了顿，轻轻地捏了捏苏末单薄的肩膀，低头说，再见。
再见。
林又南默默地转身离开，他的背影无声地消失在漆黑的夜色里。苏末忽然很想念林又南用修长手指拨弄篮球的样子，想念他坐在跑道上自己涂抹伤口的样子，想念他安安静静地问，你现在过得好吗，想念到，蹲在地上哭了起来。
林又南发来婚礼的请柬，苏末就去了。席间坐在身旁的陌生男人突然悄声问道，你是苏末?
你是哪位?苏末很惊讶。
我是又南的大学室友，你不认识我，我可知道你。又南有天深夜喝醉酒，打电话给我说苏末走了，离开了，离他越来越远了。我还以为你出国了。
苏末发觉，眼泪是可以往回流的，一颗一颗，滴在心里，生疼生疼。
主持人邀请大家集体敬酒，苏末站起来，望着台上的一对新人，缤纷的礼花正好从他们头上落下，苏末一饮而尽。
长沙这样一个内陆城市，10月份的天气刚刚好，没有冬天刺骨的冷，却已经有了初冬的暖阳。
电视上正在播放刘若英和陈升的访谈节目。
主持人侯佩岑问陈升：“你喜欢刘若英吗?”陈升很直接地说：“我当然喜欢她，否则我为什么为她做这么多事情。”但是，陈升接着说：“现在她像风筝，不知已经飘到了什么地方。”刘若英闻听不禁失声大哭起来。她孩子般追问：“如果我飞远了，你可以拉拉线啊，风筝的线永远在你的手里!你一拉线，我就会回来的!”陈升沉默片刻后说：“可是，我找不到线了!”
年轻的时候，我们有着最炽热的爱，却往往还附带着笨拙与骄傲。曾经以为喜欢与被喜欢都是轻而易举的事情，于是很容易就转身离开，想看到你的俯首称臣，想得到你的追逐与仰望。于是越飞越远，却忘记了拉线人仰望太久，是会累的。
可是，还好，我们没有彼此伤害。我们只是花了十年的时间失之交臂。
有一段没有伤害的过去，其实是一件多么美好的事情。苏末在初冬的暖阳下眯缝着眼睛，不觉笑了起来。

Once upon a time there was a baby eagle living in a nest perched on a cliff overlooking a beautiful valley with waterfalls and streams， trees and lots of little animals， scurrying about enjoying their lives.
The baby eagle liked the nest. It was the only world he had ever known. It was warm and comfortable， had a great view， and even better， he had all the food and love and attention that a great mother eagle could provide. Many times each day the mother would swoop down from the sky and land in the nest and feed the baby eagle delicious morsels of food. She was like a god to him， he had no idea where she came from or how she worked her magic.

You will soon get used to it.xxx xxxIs that the only reason?xxx said the wolf. xxxThen good-bye to you, my friend. I would rather be free.xxx
一只狼快要饿死了,一只狗看见后问他：“你现在的无规律的生活一定会毁掉你,为什么不像我一样稳定地干活并有规律地获得食物呢?” 狼说：“如果我有个地方住,我没有意见.”狗回答说：“跟我到主人那里去,我们一起工作.”于是狼和狗一起回到了村子. 在路上,狼注意到狗的脖子上有一圈没有毛,他很奇怪地问为什么会那样. “噢,没有什么,”狗说,“我的主人每天晚上都用一条铁链子拴住我,你很快就会习惯的.”“就是因为这个原因吗?”狼说道,“那么,再见了,我的朋友,我宁愿选择自由.”
英语小故事 第二十七篇
IT was lovely summer weather in the country, and the golden corn, the green oats, and the haystacks piled up in the meadows looked beautiful. The stork walking about on his long red legs chattered in the Egyptian language, which he had learnt from his mother. The corn-fields and meadows were surrounded by large forests, in the midst of which were deep pools. It was, indeed, delightful to walk about in the country. In a sunny spot stood a pleasant old farm-house close by a deep river, and from the house down to the water side grew great burdock leaves, so high, that under the tallest of them a little child could stand upright. The spot was as wild as the centre of a thick wood. In this snug retreat sat a duck on her nest, watching for her young brood to hatch; she was beginning to get tired of her task, for the little ones were a long time coming out of their shells, and she seldom had any visitors. The other ducks liked much better to swim about in the river than to climb the slippery banks, and sit under a burdock leaf, to have a gossip with her. At length one shell cracked, and then another, and from each egg came a living creature that lifted its head and cried, “Peep, peep.” “Quack, quack,” said the mother, and then they all quacked as well as they could, and looked about them on every side at the large green leaves. Their mother allowed them to look as much as they liked, because green is good for the eyes. “How large the world is,” said the young ducks, when they found how much more room they now had than while they were inside the egg-shell. “Do you imagine this is the whole world?” asked the mother; “Wait till you have seen the garden; it stretches far beyond that to the parson’s field, but I have never ventured to such a distance. Are you all out?” she continued, rising; “No, I declare, the largest egg lies there still. I wonder how long this is to last, I am quite tired of it;” and she seated herself again on the nest.
“Well, how are you getting on?” asked an old duck, who paid her a visit.
