1.小學(xué)英語(yǔ)課前三分鐘小故事 篇一
A man once bought a brilliantly-coloured parrot. Instead of locking it up in a cage or chaining it to a perch, he allowed it to fly free all over the house. The parrot was delighted at this and flapped from room to room, shrieking and screaming with happiness. At last he settled on the edge of a rich curtain.
"Who on earth are you ?" said a cross voice from below. "Stop that terrible noise at once."
The parrot saw a cat staring up at him from the carpet.
"I 'm a parrot. I 've just arrived and I 'm to make as much noise as I can," he said.
"Well, I 've lived here all my life," replied the cat ."I was born in this very house and I learned from my mother that it is best to keep quiet here."
"Keep quiet then, "said the parrot cheerfully. "I don't know what you do around here, but I know my job. My master bought me for my voice and I'm going to make sure he hears it."
Different people are valued for different things.
鸚鵡和貓
從前,有人買(mǎi)了一只毛色鮮艷的鸚鵡。他沒(méi)有把鸚鵡關(guān)在籠子里,也沒(méi)有用鏈條把他拴在棲木上,而讓他在家里自由自在地飛來(lái)飛去。鸚鵡對(duì)此十分高興,撲動(dòng)翅膀,從一間屋子飛到另一間屋子,愉快地尖聲叫著,終停在華麗的帷幔的邊上。
"你到底是誰(shuí)?"從下頭傳來(lái)怒氣沖沖的說(shuō)話(huà)聲,"立刻住嘴,別發(fā)出那難聽(tīng)的聲音。"
鸚鵡看見(jiàn)地毯上有一只貓?zhí)ь^看著他。
"我是鸚鵡。我剛到,我要使勁地吵吵。"他說(shuō)。 "那你就一聲不響吧,"鸚鵡歡快地說(shuō),"我不明白你在這兒干什么,可我明白我的活兒。主人為了我的聲音才買(mǎi)我,我必須得讓他聽(tīng)到。"

A wild ass1 saw a pack-ass jogging along under a heavy load, and taunted2 him with the condition of slavery in which he lived, in these words: "What a vile3 lot is yours compared with mine! I am free as the air, and never do a stoke of work; and, as for fodder4, I have only to go to the hills and there I find far more than enough for my needs. But you! You depend on your master for food, and he makes you carry heavy loads every day and beats you unmercifully." At that moment a lion appeared on the scene, and made no attempt to molest5 the pack-ass owing to the presence of the driver, but he fell upon the wild ass, who had no one to protect him, and without more ado made a meal of him.
It is no use being your own master unless you can stand up for yourself.

除非能照顧好自己,否則做自己的主人一點(diǎn)用也沒(méi)有。

4.小學(xué)英語(yǔ)課前三分鐘小故事 篇四
There was a sturdy ram with a pair of thick horns upright on its head.
It strutted about proudly and saw a fence built with bamboo and wood in front, which blocked its way. It cast a sidelong glance at the fence, lowered its neck and lunged at the fence, hoping to knock it down. The fence remained intact but the ram injured its own horns.
If it had not injured its horns, the ram would have persisted obstinately in butting against the fence, even against the spokes of a wheel until it bled with a fractured skull.
As a result, with its horns caught in the fence, the ram could neither advance nor retreat butbleat helplessly.

假如公羊沒(méi)有碰傷犄角的話(huà),那么它還會(huì)一個(gè)勁兒地撞下去,甚至向車(chē)輪的輻條上撞去,直到頭破血流為止。
結(jié)果呢?公羊的犄角被籬笆夾住,進(jìn)也不得,退也不得,只能“咩咩”不停地叫喚。
