The Thirsty Pigeon口渴的鸽子 A PIGEON, oppressed by excessive thirst, saw a goblet of water painted on a signboard. Not supposing it to be only a picture, she flew towards it with a loud whir and unwittingly dashed against the signboard, jarring herself terribly. Having broken her wings by the blow, she fell to the ground, and was caught by one of the bystanders. Zeal should not outrun discretion. 有只鸽子口渴得很难受,看见画板上画着一个水瓶,以为是真的。他立刻呼呼地猛飞过 去,不料一头碰撞在画板上,折断了翅膀,摔在地上,被人轻易地捉住了。 有些人想急于得到所需的东西,一时冲动,草率从事,就会身遭不幸。The Goat and the Goatherd 山羊与牧羊人 A GOATHERD had sought to bring back a stray goat to his flock. He whistled and sounded his horn in vain; the straggler paid no attention to the summons. At last the Goatherd threw a stone, and breaking its horn, begged the Goat not to tell his master. The Goat replied, "Why, you silly fellow, the horn will speak though I be silent." Do not attempt to hide things which cannot be hid. 很多山羊被牧羊人赶到羊圈里。有一只山羊不知在吃什么好东西,单独落在后面。牧羊 人拿起一块石头扔了过去,正巧打断了山羊的一只角。牧羊人吓得请求山羊不要告诉主人, 山羊说:“即使我不说,又怎能隐瞒下去呢?我的角已断了,这是十分明显的事实。” 这故事说明,明显的罪状是无法隐瞒的。

画蛇添足的英语小故事配图
画蛇添足 Drawing a Snake and Adding Feet to It In the past a family in the State of Chu made sacrificial offers to their ancestors, and after that they rewarded the people who helped in the ceremony with the pot of wine used in it. 从前,楚国有一户人家,祭完祖宗以后,把一壶祭祀时用过的酒,赏给帮助办事的人喝。 There were many helpers but only one pot of wine. Who should drink it? Someone suggested: 办事的人很多,可是酒只有一壶,到底给谁喝呢?有人提议说: "Each person is to draw a snake on the ground. Whoever draws fastest and most lifelike will get the pot of wine." “各人都在地上画一条蛇,谁画得快、画得像,就把这壶酒给谁喝。” Everyone thought this was a good idea. 大家都认为这个办法很好。 One man drew very fast, finished it in the twinkling of an eye, and was given the pot of wine. At this moment, he saw that the others had not yet finished, so he wanted to flaunt his skill once more. He said proudly: 有一个人画得很快,一转眼,就把蛇画好了。这壶酒应该归他。可是,这时候,他看看别人都没有画好,就想再炫耀一下自己的能耐。他得意洋洋地说: "How slow you are! Let me add a few snake feet." “你们画得多慢啊,让我再画上几只蛇脚吧!” Holding the wine pot in his left hand, he began to add feet to the finished snake with his right hand. When he was just adding feet to the snake, another man finished his drawing. He grabbed the wine pot at once, saying: 他左手拿着酒壶,右手又开始给画好了的蛇添上脚。当他正在添足的时候,另一个人却把蛇画好了,而且立刻把酒壶夺了过去,说: "A snake has no feet. How could you add feet to it? The first one who finished drawing a snake is I, not you." “蛇是没有脚的,你怎么画上了脚?第一个画好蛇的是我,不是你哩!” Having said this, the man drank the wine with an easy conscience. 那人说完话,就心安理得地喝起酒来。
) 画蛇添足 Drawing a snake and Adding Feet 战国时代有个楚国人祭他的祖先。仪式结束后,他拿出一壶酒赏给手下的几个人。大家商量说:“我们都来画蛇,谁先画好谁就喝这壶酒。”其中有一个人先画好了。但他看到同伴还没有画完,就又给蛇添上了脚。这时,另一个人也画好了,夺过酒壶吧酒喝了,并且说:“蛇本来是没有脚的,你怎么能给它添上脚呢?” In the Warring States Period, a man in the State of Chu was offering a sacrifice to his ancestors. After the ceremony, the man gave a beaker of wine to his servants. The servants thought that there was not enough wine for all them, and decided to each draw a picture of a snake; the one who finished the picture first would get the wine. One of them drew very rapidly. Seeing that the others were still busy drawing, he added feet to the snake. At this moment another man finished, snatched the beaker and drank the wine, saying, 'A snake doesn't have feet. How can you add feet to a snake? '(2) The Monkeys' Ration朝三暮四There was once a man who raised monkeys at home. In time, he understood the monkeys quite well.从前有个人,在家饲养了一批猴子。久而久之,他很了解猴子的感情。The man was not rich and often had to cut down his household expenses to feed the monkeys. When times turned rough, he had to reduce the monkeys'feed as well.养猴人并不富有,常常要节衣缩食去喂饱猴子。不过,当境况变得更坏时,他只好减少猴子的食粮。The man was afraid that the monkeys would not remain tame. To test their response, he told the monkeys, "Fro, now on, I'll give each of you three chestnuts in the morning and four at night. Is that all right with you?"养猴人生怕猴子会因此而变得不听话,便用试探它们的口气说:「从今天起,我每天早上给你们三颗栗子,晚上再给四颗,好吗?」When the monkeys learned that their ration was to be reduced, they flew into a rage. Seeing how mad the monkeys were, the man corrected himself at once.猴子一听到养猴人要减少它们的食粮,都非常生气。"All right," he told them, "I'll give you four chestnuts in the morning and three at night then."於是,养猴人马上改口说:「那么,改为早上给四颗,晚上再给三颗。」This satisfied the monkeys, and they all jumped for joy.猴子就感到满意,欢欣鼓舞起来。(3) 滥竽充数The Man Who Faked His MusicKing Xuan of Qi was fond of music. In particular, he enjoyed listening to a wind instrument called the "yu". He appreciated it most when the yu was played by a band of about three hundred musicians. 齐宣王喜欢听竽,尤其是三百人大乐队的吹奏。One time there was a vacancy in the royal band. When Nanguo heard about it, he applied for the post. 有一次,宣王招聘乐师。南郭先生听到了这消息,就前往应聘。 Nanguo was not a musician at all. He had applied for the post simply because he was poor and it paid well. 南郭先生其实不会吹竽。他应聘的原因,是因为他家贫,兼且乐师的待遇又丰厚。 Nanaguo was lucky. Nobody knew he was faking. His luck did not last long, though, because King Xuan soon died and young Prince Min became king. 南郭先生相当幸运,没有人发觉他在乐队中装模做样,冒充内行。可是好景不常,宣王不久去世,闵王继位。King Min also enjoyed listening to the yu. Unlike his father, he preferred listening to the musicians playing solo. As soons as Nanguo got wind of the news, he sneaked away as fast as he could. 闵王也爱听竽,不过,他跟他的父亲不同,他喜欢听乐师们一一独奏。南郭先生知道后,便马上溜走了。
随着小学英语教改的创新实施,小学英语互动课堂创设逐渐以各种形式实现。由于小学英语教材内容自身的互动性,为英语故事教学的互动奠定了扎实的基础。我精心收集了,供大家欣赏学习! 篇1 One day, Mr. Lion holds a party. Many animals e and drink a lot of wine. At last there is a pot of wine. Who can drink it? They drink out an idea and decide to have a match-Draw a snake. If you finish first, you can get it. Soon finishes drawing. "Yeah, I've finished. I'm ," he says. But he draws again and says, "Oh, let me add feet and my snake." At the time, Mr. Gorilla also finishes. He takes away the pot of wine and drinks, then he says, "That isn't a snake. Snakes have no feet. I get the wine." 画蛇添足 一天,狮子先生举行一场聚会,许多动物都来了,他们喝很多酒。最后只剩一壶酒了。让谁喝呢?它们想了想,有个主意。它们比赛画蛇,谁最快画好,谁就喝这壶酒。 不一会,狼先生画好了。"哈,我画好了,我是第一个。"它说。可是它又画了起来,它还说:"再给它加几只脚吧。"这是猩猩先生也画好了。它拿起那酒壶喝起来。一边喝一边说:"那不是蛇,蛇是没有脚的,我赢了这壶酒。" 篇2 In the Warring States Period ***zhàn guó 战国,475-221BC***, a man in the State of Chu ***chǔ guǒ楚国*** was offering a sacrifice to his ancestors. 战国时代有个楚国人祭他的祖先。 After the ceremony, the man gave a beaker of wine to his servants. 仪式结束后,他拿出一壶酒赏给手下的几个人。 The servants thought that there was not enough wine for all them, and decided to each draw a picture of a snake; the one who finished the picture first would get the wine. One of them drew very that the others were still busy drawing, he added feet to the snake. 大家商量说: “我们都来画蛇,谁先画好谁就喝这壶酒。”其中有一个人先画好 了。但他看到同伴还没有画完,就又给蛇添上了脚。 At this moment another man finished, snatched the beaker and drank the wine, saying, 'A snake doesn't have feet. How can you add feet to a snake? 这时,另一个人也画好了,夺过酒壶吧酒喝了,并且说:“蛇本来是没有脚的,你怎么能给它添上脚呢?” This idiom refers to ruining a venture by doing unnecessary and surplus things. “画蛇添足”这个成语比喻做了多余而不恰当的事,反而把事情弄糟了。 篇3 An official of the ancient State of Chu awarded a pot of wine to his men after the ceremony of Spring Sacrifice. One man said, “We have only one pot of wine. It's not enough for all of us but sufficient for one. Let's determine who'll have the wine by drawing a snake on the ground. He who finishes first will have the wine.” The others agreed. Very soon, one man finished his snake. He was about to drink the wine when he saw the others were still busy drawing. He said placently,“How slowly you are! I still have enough time to add feet to my snke.” But before he finished the feet, another man finished his snke and grabbed the pot from him, saying,“Whoever has seen a snake with feet? Yours is not a snke. So the wine should be mine!” He drank the wine. The man adding the feet to the snake had to give in and could only regret his foolishness. From that story es the idiom “Draw a snake and add feet to it”。 Now people use this idiom to illustrate the truth that going too far is as bad as not going far enough. 楚国有一个官员,在春天祭过了祖宗之后,便将一壶酒赏给他的办事人员喝。有人提议:“我们只有一壶酒,肯定不够我们大家喝的,一个人喝倒是绰绰有余。我们?a href='' target='_blank'>咳嗽诘厣匣?惶跎撸???米羁欤?桶颜夂?聘???rdquo; 大家都同意了。 有一个人很快就把蛇画好了。他正打算喝这壶酒时,看见别人都还忙着画呢。他就得意扬扬地说:“你们画得好慢呀,等我再画上几只脚吧!” 他的蛇脚还没画完,另一个人已经把蛇画好了。那人把酒壶夺了过去说:“有谁见过长脚的蛇?你画的不是蛇,这壶酒应该是我的了。”说罢,就喝起酒来。那个给蛇画脚的人没办法,只能懊悔自己的愚蠢。 “画蛇添足”这个成语就是从这个故事来的。现在人们用它来说明这么个道理:做的过分和做的不够是一样有害的。

When Spring came, she found the earth cold and bare, but she soon changed all that, and by the time Summer arrives, the world is a very different place. It is a green world now, green leaves on the trees, green grass in the fields, green plants crowding in the hedges and flowers opening everywhere.夏天伴着它那温暖的明媚阳光而来,使我们想起了各种美好的事情:在农村的度假,野餐活动,还有那翻晒干草时节的聚会……The days are long and the nights are short, for the sun gets up early and goes to bed late in sunny June. It is one of the best and brightest months in the year. Birds sing from sunrise till long after sunset.白天长了,夜晚短了;在明媚的六月里,太阳早早起床,很晚才入睡。这是一年里最美好最有生机的一个月。鸟儿从太阳升起一直唱到太阳落山以后才停息。As night falls, one after another the birds stop their singing, and after a few last sleepy sounds, put their heads under their wings to rest for an hour or two before beginning again. They do not all sleep, however. When other birds are silent, comes a soft cry, then, after a few moments, another, louder this time; and soon the nightingal pouring out his wonderful song.Not only at night does the nightingale sing. On almost every warm day in early June, the little brown bird sings away in the roads and woods, but, as all the other birds are also singing at the same time, we do not notice his voice so much. It is at night, when he has the field all to himself, that we hear the nightingale at his best.当别的鸟儿静下来之后,传来一阵柔和的叫声;再过一会,声音大了起来,很快,夜莺尽情地唱起它那奇妙的歌。

故事1.圆桌骑士The Round Table Knights The Round Table Knights were a group of greatest knights who had the honour to sit at the Round Table at King Arthur’s court. According to a story, Arthur had a carpenter build the Round Table to show that no knight, not even Arthur himself was “head of the table”. All were equal and the king was just “first among equals”. The table was so large that it had enough seats for 1600 men and yet could be folded up and carried on horseback. According to another source.. Merlin the magician had the table built for Uther, Arthur’s father. Uther gave the table to King Leodegan. Later,Leodegan gave the table to Arthur after Arthur married Guenevere, Leodegan’s daughter. Still another story says that the Round Table had 12 seats around it, like the table at the Last Supper, with an empty place representing Judas’s seat. This seat was called the Siege Perilous, and was reserved for the knight so pure in heart that he would someday find the Holy Grail, the cup or dish used by Jesus at the Last Supper.Any other knight who sat in the seat would die. One day, Sir Galahad’s name appeared on the seat. From then on, he occupied the Siege Perilous .Later, as expected, he found the Holy Grail with the other two knights. Knights considered it a great honour to have a seat at the Round Table. Brave men came to Arthur’s court from many countries hoping to become a Round Table Knight. Many stories describe the heroic deeds of various Knights of the Round Table. Several tell of the adventures of Sir Tristram and Sir Gawin. Other famous Round Table Knights included Lancelot, Bedevere, Bors, Galahad, Perceval and Modred..The greatest adventure of the Round Table was the search for the Holy Grail. However, only the three knights---Bors, Galahad and Perceval were pure enough to be able to find the Grail. All the others had various moral defects. This fact damaged the reputation of the Round Table. To make things worse, a love affair developed between Queen Guenevere and Sir Lancelot, who was perhaps the greatest of the Round Table knights. This scandal destroyed the bonds of respect and friendship that had united all the knights.The mortal blow to the Round Table ws given by Sir Modred, who tried to seize Arthur’s power. In a battle between the forces of the two men, Arthur killed Modred but he mimself was seriously wounded and soon died. The Round Table broke up following the death of Arthur. 翻译:圆桌骑士是亚瑟王宫廷里有权在圆桌旁就座的骑士。据传,亚瑟之所以让人造一圆桌,是因为圆桌无首席,所有骑士平起平坐,即使亚瑟本人也只是“众平等骑士之首”而已。这张桌子可坐1600人,但又可以折叠起来,一匹马就能驮走。据另一说,圆桌是墨林为尤瑟造的,尤瑟将它赠给了利奥德根王,而当亚瑟娶利奥德根王的女儿圭内维尔时,利奥德根又将它赠给亚瑟。也有人说圆桌周围有12个座位,与耶稣和他的门徒共进最后的晚餐时用的桌子相仿。其中有一个空位,代表犹大。这个座位被称为“危座”,留给能够找到圣杯的最圣洁的骑士。圣杯是耶稣在最后的晚餐上用过的杯子。不够圣洁的骑士若胆敢就座,就会马上死去。有一天,加拉哈爵士的名字出现在“危座”上,此后,这个座位就归他了。他后来果真与另外两位骑士找到了圣杯。骑士们将能在圆桌旁就座视为最大的荣誉。各路豪杰纷纷前来,希望在圆桌旁得到位置。很多故事讲各圆桌骑士的英雄业绩。特利斯特拉姆和高文爵士的故事脍炙人口。其他著名的圆桌骑士还有朗斯洛、拜德维尔、博斯、加位哈德、珀西瓦尔、莫德雷德等人。圆桌骑士们最伟大的历险是寻找圣杯。但其中只有博斯、加拉哈德和珀西瓦尔三人足够圣洁,有资格找到圣杯。所有其他骑士都有各种各样的道德缺陷,败坏了圆桌骑士们的名声。使事情更糟的是,圆桌骑士中最骁勇善战的朗斯洛爵士与亚瑟的妻子圭内维尔私通,违反了骑士道,破坏了骑士们的团结。最后,莫德雷德爵士试图篡位,给圆桌骑士这一集体以致命的一击。亚瑟王率军与莫德雷德作战,在战斗中杀死莫德雷德,但自己也受了致命伤,不久死去。亚瑟死后,圆桌骑士各奔东西。 故事2.驴和买驴的人The ass and his purchaser A man wanted to buy an ass. He went to the market, and saw a likely one. But he wanted to test him first. So he took the ass home, and put him into the stable with the other asses. The new ass looked around, and immediately went to choose a place next to the laziest ass in the stable. When the man saw this he put a halter on the ass at once, and gave him back to his owner. The owner felt quite surprised. He asked the man, "Why are you back so soon? Have you tested him already?" "I don't want to test him any more," replied the man, "From the companion he chose for himself, I could see what sort of animal he is." 翻译:一个买主到市场上去买驴,他看中一头外表不错的驴,但是他想要牵走试一试。 他把驴牵回家,放在自己其他的驴之间,这驴四处看看,立即走向一头好吃懒做的驴旁边。 于是,买驴的人立刻给那头驴套上辔头,牵去还给驴的卖主。 卖主感到很奇怪,他问买主:“你怎么这么快就回来了?”买主说:“不必再试了,从他所选择什么样的朋友来看,我已经知道他是什么样了。” 寓意: 物以类聚,人以群分。人们往往喜欢跟与自己相同的人交往,所以,我们可以根据一个人的朋友来推断他的为人。 故事3. Big Head“All the kids make fun of me”the boy cried to his mother.“They say I have a big head”“Don't listen to them.”his mother comforted him.“You have a beautiful head .Now stop crying and go to the store for ten pounds of potatoes”“Where's the shopping bag?”“I haven't got one,use your hat.”翻译:大脑袋“所有的孩子都拿我开玩笑,”小男孩哭着跟妈妈说:“他们说我长了一个大脑袋。”“别听他们的,”他妈妈安慰说:“你的脑袋长得很漂亮。好了,别哭了,去商店买10磅土豆来。”“购物袋在哪?”“我没有购物袋,就用你的帽子吧。”
