給小學生講英語故事
❶ 小學課堂上可以講的英語小故事
Once upon a time the fox was talking to the wolf about the strength of man, how no animal could withstand him, and how all were obliged to employ cunning in order to protect themselves from him.
wolf answered, "If I could see a man just once, I would attack him nonetheless."
"I can help you to do that," said the fox. "Come to me early tomorrow morning, and I will show you one."
The wolf arrived on time, and the fox took him out to the path which the huntsman used every day. First an old discharged soldier came by.
"Is that a man?" asked the wolf.
"No," answered the fox. "He has been one."
Afterwards came a little boy on his way to school.
"Is that a man?"
"No, he will yet become one."
Finally a huntsman came by with his double-barreled gun on his back, and a sword at his side.
The fox said to the wolf, "Look, there comes a man. He is the one you must attack, but I am going back to my den."
The wolf then charged at the man.
When the huntsman saw him he said, "Too bad that I have not loaded with a bullet." Then he aimed and fired a load of shot into his face.
The wolf pulled an awful face, but did not let himself be frightened, and attacked him again, on which the huntsman gave him the second barrel. The wolf swallowed his pain and charged at the huntsman again, who in turn drew out his naked sword, and gave him a few blows with it left and right, so that, bleeding all over, he ran howling back to the fox.
"Well," Brother Wolf, said the fox, "how did you get along with man?"
"Oh," replied the wolf, "I never imagined the strength of man to be what it is. First, he took a stick from his shoulder, and blew into it, and then something flew into my face which tickled me terribly. Then he breathed once more into the stick, and it flew up my nose like lightning and hail. Then when I got next to him, he drew a naked rib out of his body, and he beat me so with it that he almost killed me."
"See what a braggart you are," said the fox. "You throw your hatchet so far that you cannot get it back again."
從前有隻狐狸向狼談起人的力量，說沒有動物能抵擋得了，所以他認為所有動物都必須施展計謀才能保護自己。可狼回答說：「假如我有機會碰到一個人，我就撲上去讓他無法抵擋。」狐狸說：「我可以幫你碰到人啊。明早你早點來我家，我把他指給你看。」
第二天，狼很早就來了，狐狸帶它來到獵人每天的必經之路。
他們碰到的第一個人是個退役老兵，狼問：「那是個人嗎？」
「不是，」狐狸回答，「他以前是。」
接著他們遇到一個去上學的小男孩。「那是個人嗎？」狼又問。「不是。」
狐狸回答說，「他將來是。」最後一個獵人朝它們走來，他肩上扛著雙筒獵槍，腰間還插著一把獵刀，狐狸對狼說：「那個就是人，你該朝他撲過去，我可是要回我洞里去了。」
於是狼朝獵人沖了過去。獵人一看說：「真可惜我沒裝上子彈，而是散彈。」他瞄準狼的臉開了一槍。狼疼得一陣痙攣，可還是沒被嚇倒，又朝獵人沖了過去。獵人又開了一槍。狼忍著巨痛撲向獵人，沒想到獵人抽出獵刀左右開弓地在狼身上劃了幾道口子。狼鮮血四濺，嚎叫著逃到狐狸那裡去了。
「狼兄弟，」狐狸說，「和人相處怎麼樣？」「哈！」狼回答說，「我從沒想到人的力量會這么大！他先是從肩上取下一根棍子，朝裡面吹了一口氣，就有甚麼東西飛到我臉上，癢得我要命；接著他又吹了一次，就有東西飛到我鼻子周圍，像下了一陣雹子。當我靠近他時，他從身上抽出一根白得發亮的肋骨狠狠地打我，幾乎把我打死在那裡。」
狐狸說：「你這個吹牛大王，誰讓你把話說得太大了，自己連退路都沒有了呢。」

The country Maid and Her Milk Can 村姑和牛奶罐 A country maid was walking along with a can of milk upon her head,when she fell into the following train of reflections."The money for which I shall sell this milk will enable me to increase my stock of eggs to three hundred,These eggs,allowing for what may prove addle,and what may be destroyed by vermin,will proce at least two hundred and fifty chickens.The chickens will be fit to carry to market just at the time when poultry is always dear;so that by the new year I cannot fail of having money enough to purchase a new gown.Green-let me consider-yes,green becomes my complexion best .and green it shall be, In this dress I will go to the fair,where all young fellows will strive to have me for a parter;but no-I shall refuse every one of them,and with a disdainful toss turn from them." Transported with this idea,she could not forbear acting with her head the thought that passed in her mind,when down came the can of milk!And all her imaginary happiness vanished in a moment. 一個村姑頭上頂著一罐牛奶在路上行走。走著走著，她的腦子里浮現出一連串的幻想：「我賣了這罐牛奶後，用這筆錢買雞蛋，這樣我有的雞蛋可以增加到300個。用這300個雞蛋孵小雞，這就算有壞的、生蟲的，至少也能孵出250隻小雞。等小雞長大後，正好能趕上賣個好市價；那麼到了新年，我就能有錢買一件新晚裝。買一件綠色的——讓我好好想想——對，綠色與我的膚色最相襯。我穿上這件衣服去趕集，所有的年輕小夥子都會搶著邀請我做舞伴；但是不行——我要輕蔑地把頭一揚，轉身過去不理他們，讓他們人人都碰個釘子。 她想得得意忘形，情不自禁地把頭一揚，剎那間，牛奶罐跌了下來！她幻想的一切幸福瞬間破滅了。

The Thirsty Pigeon口渴的鴿子
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.
有隻鴿子口渴得很難受，看見畫板上畫著一個水瓶，以為是真的。他立刻呼呼地猛飛過 去，不料一頭碰撞在畫板上，折斷了翅膀，摔在地上，被人輕易地捉住了。
這是說，有些人想急於得到所需的東西，一時沖動，草率從事，就會身遭不幸。
The Raven and the Swan烏鴉和天鵝
A RAVEN saw a Swan and desired to secure for himself the same beautiful plumage. Supposing that the Swan's splendid white color arose from his washing in the water in which he swam, the Raven left the altars in the neighborhood where he picked up his living, and took up residence in the lakes and pools. But cleansing his feathers as often as he would, he could not change their color, while through want of food he perished.
Change of habit cannot alter Nature.
烏鴉非常羨慕天鵝潔白的羽毛。他猜想天鵝一定是經常洗澡，羽毛才變得如此潔白無 瑕。於是，他毅然離開了他賴以生存的祭壇，來到江湖邊。他天天洗刷自己的羽毛，不但一 點都沒洗白，反而因缺少食物飢餓而死。
這故事是說，人的本性不會隨著生活方式的改變而改變。
The Goat and the Goatherd 山羊與牧羊人
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.
很多山羊被牧羊人趕到羊圈裡。有一隻山羊不知在吃什麼好東西，單獨落在後面。牧羊 人拿起一塊石頭扔了過去，正巧打斷了山羊的一隻角。牧羊人嚇得請求山羊不要告訴主人， 山羊說：「即使我不說，又怎能隱瞞下去呢？我的角已斷了，這是十分明顯的事實。」
這故事說明，明顯的罪狀是無法隱瞞的。
The Miser守財奴
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."
有個守財奴變賣了他所有的家產，換回了金塊，並秘密地埋在一個地方。他每天走去看 看他的寶藏。有個在附近放羊的牧人留心觀察，知道了真情，趁他走後，挖出金塊拿走了。 守財奴再來時，發現洞中的金塊沒有了，便捶胸痛哭。有個人見他如此悲痛，問明原因後， 說道：「喂，朋友，別再難過了，那塊金子雖是你買來的，但並不是你真正擁有的。去拿一 塊石頭來，代替金塊放在洞里，只要你心裡想著那是塊金子，你就會很高興。這樣與你擁有 真正的金塊效果沒什麼不同。依我之見，你擁有那金塊時，也從沒用過。」
這故事說明，一切財物如不使用等於沒有。
The Wolf and the Lamb 狼與小羊
WOLF, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea to justify to the Lamb the Wolf's right to eat him. He thus addressed him:"Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf , "You feed in my pasture." "No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me." Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won't remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations."
The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.
一隻小羊在河邊喝水，狼見到後，便想找一個名正言順的借口吃掉他。於是他跑到上游，惡狠狠地說小羊把河水攪渾濁了，使他喝不到清水。小羊回答說，他僅僅站在河邊喝水，並且又在下游，根本不可能把上游的水攪渾。狼見此計不成，又說道：「我父親去年被你罵過。」小羊說，那時他還沒有出生。狼對他說：「不管你怎樣辯解，反正我不會放過 你。」
這說明，對惡人做任何正當的辯解也是無效的。
The Bat and the Weasels蝙蝠與黃鼠狼
A BAT who fell upon the ground and was caught by a Weasel pleaded to be spared his life. The Weasel refused, saying that he was by nature the enemy of all birds. The Bat assured him that he was not a bird, but a mouse, and thus was set free. Shortly afterwards the Bat again fell to the ground and was caught by another Weasel, whom he likewise entreated not to eat him. The Weasel said that he had a special hostility to mice. The Bat assured him that he was not a mouse, but a bat, and thus a second time escaped.
It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.
蝙蝠掉落在地上，被黃鼠狼叼去，他請求饒命。黃鼠狼說絕不會放過他，自己生來痛恨鳥類。蝙蝠說他是老鼠，不是鳥，便被放了。後來蝙蝠又掉落了下來，被另一隻黃鼠狼叼住，他再三請求不要吃他。這只黃鼠狼說他恨一切鼠類。蝙蝠改口說自己是鳥類，並非老 鼠，又被放了。這樣，蝙蝠兩次改變了自己的名字，終於死裡逃生。
這故事說明，我們遇事要隨機應變方能避免危險。
The Ass and the Grasshopper 驢子與蚱蜢
AN ASS having heard some Grasshoppers chirping, was highly enchanted; and, desiring to possess the same charms of melody, demanded what sort of food they lived on to give them such beautiful voices. They replied, "The dew." The Ass resolved that he would live only upon dew, and in a short time died of hunger.
驢子聽見蚱蜢唱歌，被美妙動聽的歌聲所打動，自己也想能發出同樣悅耳動聽的聲音，便 羨慕地問他們吃些什麼，才能發出如此美妙的聲音來。蚱蜢答道：「吃露水。」驢子便也只吃露水，沒多久就餓死了。
這個故事告訴人們不要企望非份之物。
The Lion and the Mouse 獅子與報恩的老鼠
A LION was awakened from sleep by a Mouse running over his face. Rising up angrily, he caught him and was about to kill him, when the Mouse piteously entreated, saying: "If you would only spare my life, I would be sure to repay your kindness." The Lion laughed and let him go. It happened shortly after this that the Lion was caught by some hunters, who bound him by strong ropes to the ground. The Mouse, recognizing his roar, came and gnawed the rope with his teeth and set him free, exclaiming:
"You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favor; now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to con benefits on a Lion."
獅子睡著了，有隻老鼠跳到了他身上。獅子猛然站起來，把他抓住，准備吃掉。老鼠請求饒命，並說如果保住性命，必將報恩，獅子輕蔑地笑了笑，便把他放走了。不久，獅子真的被老鼠救了性命。原來獅子被一個獵人抓獲，並用繩索把他捆在一棵樹上。老鼠聽到了他 的哀嚎，走過去咬斷繩索，放走了獅子，並說：
「你當時嘲笑我，不相信能得到我的報答， 現在可清楚了，老鼠也能報恩。」
A merchant's Three Son商人的三個兒子
Once,long ago,there was an old merchant who had three sons."To which one shall i leave my fortune?"He wondered:"It must be to the cleverest son.But which one is the cleverest?"
He called his three sons to him:"Here is some money,"he told them."You must each take one coin to buy something to fill this room shall have my fortune."
"It is a big room,"said the eldest son.
"One coin will not buy very much,"said the second son.
But the youngest son said nothing.He stood and thought,and then he smiled,"come,brothers,"he said,"let us go to the market."
The eldest son bought straw with his coin.But he bought only a bit straw with one coin.Even when he had spread it as much as he could,the straw covered only a corner of the room.
The second son bought sand with his coin.But he bought only a bit of sand.Even when he had spread it as much as he could,the sand covered only half of the floor.
"What did you buy?"The eldest son angrily asked his youngest brother,"you don't have any straw."
"Yes,what did you buy?"The second son asked angrily,"you don't have any sand."
"I bought this,"said the youngest brother.
"A candle!"cried his brothers,"what good is a candle?"
"Watch,"said the youngest brother.
He lit the candle,and all at once the room was filled with light from wall to wall.From ceiling to floor!
"Although you are the youngest,you are indeed the cleverest of my sons,"the old merchant said.
And that is how,it came true,that the old merchant left his fortunde to his youngest son,the one who could fill a room with light.
很久以前,有一個上了年紀的商人,他有三個兒子."我該把家產留給哪個兒子呢?"他想,"應該把它留給最聰明的兒子.但是哪個最聰明呢?"
他把三個兒子叫到面前."這里有一些錢,"他告訴他們,"你們每人拿一枚銀幣去買一件可以裝滿這間屋子的東西.買到能裝滿這間屋子的人將得到我的家產.
"這是一間很大的屋子."大兒子說.
"一枚銀幣買不到多少東西."二兒子說.
但是小兒子卻什麼也沒有說.他站在那兒想著,然後微笑."喂,哥哥們,"他說,"我們到市場上去吧!"
大兒子用他的錢買了麥穗.但一枚銀幣買到的只是一點兒麥穗,即使他盡量設法把麥穗鋪開一些,麥穗遮住的也只是房間的一個角落.二兒子用錢買了沙子,但一枚銀幣買到的只不過是一點沙子,即使他盡量設法把沙子鋪開一些,沙子也只遮住一半的地面.
"你買了什麼?"大兒子生氣地問小弟,"你沒買麥穗."
"是啊,你買了什麼?"二兒子也生氣地問,"你沒買沙子."
"我買了這個."小弟說
"一根蠟燭!"他的哥哥們叫起來,"一根蠟燭有什麼用?"
"瞧吧,"小弟說.他點燃了蠟燭,房間從這邊到那邊,從天花板到地上,一下子全都充滿了光亮!
"雖然你最小,但你確實是我兒子中最聰明的."老人說.
這也就是那個老人如何把全部家產都留給了用亮光來充滿房間的小兒子的故事.

童英語小故事--小馬過河 (How a Colt Crossed the River)
One day, a colt took a bag of wheat to the mill.
As he was running with the bag on his back, he came to a small river. The colt could not decide whether he could cross it. Looking around, he saw a cow grazing nearby. He asked, "Aunt Cow, could you tell me if I can cross the river" The cow told him that he could and that the river was not very deep, just knee high.
the colt was crossing the river when a squirrel jumped down a tree and stopped him. The squirrel shouted, "Colt, stop! Youll drown! One of my friends drowned just yesterday in the river." Not knowing what to do, the colt went home to consult his mom.
He told his mom his experience on the way. His mother said, "My child, dont always listen to others. Youd better go and try yourself. Then youll know what to do."
Later, at the river, the squirrel stopped the colt again. "Little horse, its too dangerous!"
"No, I want to try myself", answered the colt. Then he crossed the river carefully.
On the other side of the river, the colt realized that the river was neither as shallow as the cow said nor as deep as the squirrel told him.
You see, real knowledge comes from practice.
小馬過河兒童英語故事中文譯文
一天，小馬馱著麥子去磨坊。
當他馱著口袋向前跑去時，突然發現一條小河擋住了去路。小馬為難了，這可怎麼辦呢？
它向四周望瞭望，看見一頭奶牛在河邊吃草。小馬問道：「牛阿姨，請您告訴我，這條河我能趟過去嗎？」奶牛回答說：「水很淺，剛到膝蓋。」
小馬正准備過河，突然叢樹上跳下一隻松鼠，攔住它大叫道：「小馬，別過河！你會被淹的。昨天，我的一個夥伴就在這條河裡淹啦！」小馬不知如何是好，於是決定回家問問媽媽。
小馬把路上的經歷告訴了媽媽。媽媽說：「孩子，光聽別人說是不行的，你自己親自去試一試，就知道答案了。」
小馬回到河邊，剛要下水，松鼠又大叫起來：「小馬，你不要命啦？」小馬說：「讓我自己試試吧。」它一面回答一面下了河，小心地趟了過去。原來河水既不像老牛說的那樣淺也不像松鼠說的那樣深。
這下明白了吧，實踐才能出真知。
The Fox and the Cat 狐狸和貓
It happened that the cat met Mr. Fox in the woods. She thought, "He is intelligent and well experienced, and is highly regarded in the world," so she spoke to him in a friendly manner, "Good-day, my dear Mr. Fox. How is it going How are you How are you getting by in these hard times"
The fox, filled with arrogance, examined the cat from head to feet, and for a long time did not know whether he should give an answer. At last he said, "Oh, you poor beard-licker, you speckled fool, you hungry mouse hunter, what are you thinking Have you the nerve to ask how I am doing What do you know How many tricks do you understand"
"I understand but one," answered the cat, modestly.
"What kind of a trick is it" asked the fox.
"When the dogs are chasing me, I can jump into a tree and save myself."
"Is that all" said the fox. "I am master of a hundred tricks, and in addition to that I have a sackful of cunning. I feel sorry for you. Come with me, and I will teach you how one escapes from the dogs."
Just then a hunter came by with four dogs. The cat jumped nimbly up a tree, and sat down at its top, where the branches and foliage completely hid her.
"Untie your sack, Mr. Fox, untie your sack," the cat shouted to him, but the dogs had already seized him, and were holding him fast.
"Oh, Mr. Fox," shouted the cat. "You and your hundred tricks are left in the lurch. If you been able to climb like I can, you would not have lost your life."
一隻貓在森林裡遇到一隻狐狸，心想：「他又聰明，經驗又豐富，挺受人尊重的。」於是它很友好地和狐狸打招呼：「日安，尊敬的狐狸先生，您好嗎？這些日子挺艱難的，您過得怎麼樣？」狐狸傲慢地將貓從頭到腳地打量了一番，半天拿不定主意是不是該和它說話。最後它說：「哦，你這個倒霉的長著鬍子、滿身花紋的傻瓜、飢腸轆轆地追趕老鼠的傢伙，你會啥？有甚麼資格問我過得怎麼樣？你都學了點甚麼本事？」「我只有一種本領。」貓謙虛地說。「甚麼本領？」狐狸問。「有人追我的時候，我會爬到樹上去藏起來保護自己。」「就這本事？」狐狸不屑地說：「我掌握了上百種本領，而且還有滿口袋計謀。我真覺得你可憐，跟著我吧，我教你怎麼從追捕中逃生。」
就在這時，獵人帶著四條狗走近了。貓敏捷地竄到一棵樹上，在樹頂上蹲伏下來，茂密的樹葉把它遮擋得嚴嚴實實。「快打開你的計謀口袋，狐狸先生，快打開呀！」貓沖著狐狸喊道。可是獵狗已經將狐狸撲倒咬住了。「哎呀，狐狸先生，」貓喊道，「你的千百種本領就這么給扔掉了！假如你能像我一樣爬樹就不至於丟了性命了！」

烏鴉非常羨慕天鵝潔白的羽毛。他猜想天鵝一定是經常洗澡，羽毛才變得如此潔白無 瑕。於是，他毅然離開了他賴以生存的祭壇，來到江湖邊。他天天洗刷自己的羽毛，不但一 點都沒洗白，反而因缺少食物飢餓而死。
這故事是說，人的本性不會隨著生活方式的改變而改變。
The Goat and the Goatherd 山羊與牧羊人
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.
很多山羊被牧羊人趕到羊圈裡。有一隻山羊不知在吃什麼好東西，單獨落在後面。牧羊 人拿起一塊石頭扔了過去，正巧打斷了山羊的一隻角。牧羊人嚇得請求山羊不要告訴主人， 山羊說：「即使我不說，又怎能隱瞞下去呢？我的角已斷了，這是十分明顯的事實。」
這故事說明，明顯的罪狀是無法隱瞞的。
The Miser守財奴
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."
有個守財奴變賣了他所有的家產，換回了金塊，並秘密地埋在一個地方。他每天走去看 看他的寶藏。有個在附近放羊的牧人留心觀察，知道了真情，趁他走後，挖出金塊拿走了。 守財奴再來時，發現洞中的金塊沒有了，便捶胸痛哭。有個人見他如此悲痛，問明原因後， 說道：「喂，朋友，別再難過了，那塊金子雖是你買來的，但並不是你真正擁有的。去拿一 塊石頭來，代替金塊放在洞里，只要你心裡想著那是塊金子，你就會很高興。這樣與你擁有 真正的金塊效果沒什麼不同。依我之見，你擁有那金塊時，也從沒用過。」
這故事說明，一切財物如不使用等於沒有。
The Wolf and the Lamb 狼與小羊
WOLF, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea to justify to the Lamb the Wolf's right to eat him. He thus addressed him:"Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf , "You feed in my pasture." "No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me." Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won't remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations."
The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.
一隻小羊在河邊喝水，狼見到後，便想找一個名正言順的借口吃掉他。於是他跑到上游，惡狠狠地說小羊把河水攪渾濁了，使他喝不到清水。小羊回答說，他僅僅站在河邊喝水，並且又在下游，根本不可能把上游的水攪渾。狼見此計不成，又說道：「我父親去年被你罵過。」小羊說，那時他還沒有出生。狼對他說：「不管你怎樣辯解，反正我不會放過 你。」
這說明，對惡人做任何正當的辯解也是無效的。
The Bat and the Weasels蝙蝠與黃鼠狼
A BAT who fell upon the ground and was caught by a Weasel pleaded to be spared his life. The Weasel refused, saying that he was by nature the enemy of all birds. The Bat assured him that he was not a bird, but a mouse, and thus was set free. Shortly afterwards the Bat again fell to the ground and was caught by another Weasel, whom he likewise entreated not to eat him. The Weasel said that he had a special hostility to mice. The Bat assured him that he was not a mouse, but a bat, and thus a second time escaped.
It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.
蝙蝠掉落在地上，被黃鼠狼叼去，他請求饒命。黃鼠狼說絕不會放過他，自己生來痛恨鳥類。蝙蝠說他是老鼠，不是鳥，便被放了。後來蝙蝠又掉落了下來，被另一隻黃鼠狼叼住，他再三請求不要吃他。這只黃鼠狼說他恨一切鼠類。蝙蝠改口說自己是鳥類，並非老 鼠，又被放了。這樣，蝙蝠兩次改變了自己的名字，終於死裡逃生。
這故事說明，我們遇事要隨機應變方能避免危險。
The Ass and the Grasshopper 驢子與蚱蜢
AN ASS having heard some Grasshoppers chirping, was highly enchanted; and, desiring to possess the same charms of melody, demanded what sort of food they lived on to give them such beautiful voices. They replied, "The dew." The Ass resolved that he would live only upon dew, and in a short time died of hunger.
驢子聽見蚱蜢唱歌，被美妙動聽的歌聲所打動，自己也想能發出同樣悅耳動聽的聲音，便 羨慕地問他們吃些什麼，才能發出如此美妙的聲音來。蚱蜢答道：「吃露水。」驢子便也只吃露水，沒多久就餓死了。
這個故事告訴人們不要企望非份之物。
The Lion and the Mouse 獅子與報恩的老鼠
A LION was awakened from sleep by a Mouse running over his face. Rising up angrily, he caught him and was about to kill him, when the Mouse piteously entreated, saying: "If you would only spare my life, I would be sure to repay your kindness." The Lion laughed and let him go. It happened shortly after this that the Lion was caught by some hunters, who bound him by strong ropes to the ground. The Mouse, recognizing his roar, came and gnawed the rope with his teeth and set him free, exclaiming:
"You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favor; now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to con benefits on a Lion."
獅子睡著了，有隻老鼠跳到了他身上。獅子猛然站起來，把他抓住，准備吃掉。老鼠請求饒命，並說如果保住性命，必將報恩，獅子輕蔑地笑了笑，便把他放走了。不久，獅子真的被老鼠救了性命。原來獅子被一個獵人抓獲，並用繩索把他捆在一棵樹上。老鼠聽到了他 的哀嚎，走過去咬斷繩索，放走了獅子，並說：
「你當時嘲笑我，不相信能得到我的報答， 現在可清楚了，老鼠也能報恩。」 這故事說明，時運交替變更，強者也會有需要弱者的時候。

❾ 故事教學法 如何給小學生講英語故事
（一） Warm up （准備活動）
老師可以通過簡單的歌曲或游戲復習之前所學習的單詞或句子，活躍課堂氣氛；或者問幾個與故事內容相關的簡單問題，讓學生結合實際思考討論，以導入故事情節。
（二）Presentation （呈現過程）
1、介紹故事名稱。讓學生說說與該話題相關的內容，預估他們對話題的了解程度。孩子們可以用英語也可用母語回答，重點是要打開思維。還可以藉助圖片、手偶等教具的幫助，讓學生猜猜故事中會發生什麼。這樣既可激起學生的好奇心，又可讓他們發揮想像力，更早地進入故事情境中。
2、講故事。在講故事的過程中，切記照著書本朗讀，要盡可能地豐富該過程，必要時可以加入詞彙語法教學。比如，在情節跌宕起伏時，肢體語言、聲音和面部表情等也要相應配合；在出現重點詞彙和句子時，可作適當的解釋；在講故事的過程中，還可以安排學生即興表演小片段，增強其課堂參與感。
（三）Practice （操練）
學生可以在老師幫助下，通過圖片、電腦課件等指示性的教具復述故事；還可以將學生分成若干小組，根據故事內容分配角色，進行角色扮演。
（四）Follow-up （拓展活動）
可以讓學生朗讀他們最喜歡的故事情節；和學生一起討論關於這個故事的一些感想；或者讓學生們開動腦筋，改寫故事內容；有條件的話還可以製作故事書，開展舞台劇比賽等。
參考以上步驟，老師可根據實際情況，在英語課堂中適當引進故事教學法，並在講故事的過程中創造性地設計適合學生的各種活動。
