兒童英語小故事1
There was a farmer in the Song Kingdom in ancient China. He worked in his field day after day. In good harvest years, he could only have enough food to eat and enough clothing to wear. If the field failed to produce enough crops, he had to go hungry. This farmer wanted to improve his life. But he was too lazy and too cowardly. He always dreamed of having unexpected fortune.
A miracle took place at last. One day, when he worked in the field, some people were hunting nearby. They shouted loudly one after another. Some little animals were running desperately. Suddenly, a hare dashed itself headlong against the stump of a dead tree in his field and died.
That day, he had a good meal.
From that day on, he no longer worked in his field. From morning till night, he stayed by that miraculous stump, waiting for another hare. Will the miracle happen again?
People often use the set phrase “staying by a stump waiting for more hares to come and dash themselves against it" to refer to persons dreaming to reap without sowing.
在戰(zhàn)國時代的宋國，有一個農(nóng)民，每天都很辛苦地在田地里干活.遇到好年景，也不過剛剛吃飽穿暖;要是遇到災荒，他就得忍饑挨餓了.他很想能過上好一點的日子，可是他太懶，膽子又特小，干什么都是又懶又怕的，總是想著能碰到送上門來的意外之財就好了。
奇跡終于發(fā)生了。一天，他正在田里干活，一群打獵的人靠近了。吆喝之聲四處起伏，受驚的小動物們沒命地奔跑。突然，有一只兔子，不偏不倚，一頭撞死在他田邊的.樹根上。
這天，他美美地飽餐了一頓。
從此，他就不再種地了，一天到晚守著那個神奇的樹根，等著奇跡再次出現(xiàn)。
人們后來就常用“守株待兔”這個成語來形容那些老夢想著不耕種就會有收獲的人。

兒童英語小故事6
A mouse once took a bite out of a bull's tail as he lay dozing. The bull jumped up in a rage and, with his head low to the ground, chased the mouse right across the yard. The mouse was too quick for him, however, and slipped easily into a hole in the wall.
The bull charged the wall furiously again and again, but although he bruised his head and chipped his horns, the mouse stayed safely inside his hole. After a time the bull gave up and sank down to rest again.
As soon as the bull was asleep, the little mouse crept to the mouth of the hole, pattered across the yard, bit the bull again -- this time on the nose -- and rushed back to safety. As the bull roared helplessly the mouse squeaked:
"It's not always the big people who come off best. Sometimes the small ones win, you know."
有一次，公牛躺著打盹，一只老鼠咬了他的尾巴。公牛怒氣沖沖地跳起來，低著頭追老鼠，一直追過院子。然而，老鼠跑得比他快多了，從容地鉆到墻洞里去了。

公牛剛睡著，小老鼠就爬到洞口，嗒嗒地跑過院子，又咬了公牛一口??這回咬了鼻子??又跑回安全的地方去。當公牛毫無辦法地吼叫時，老鼠吱吱叫道：
"大人物并不總占上風。有時小人物也會取勝。"

兒童英語小故事8
In the field, there was a small animal called "wu shu"(the flying squirrel1).
It would say to everyone it met: "I have five skills: flying, walking, swimming, climbing trees, and digging holes in the ground."
Thereupon, its pals2 would laugh at it, saying: "Though you have learned these skills, you have mastered none of them. You can fly, but not high; you can swim, but not far; you can climb trees, but not to the treetop; you can dig holes in the ground, but not deep enough."
When the flying squirrel heard what its pals said, it ran away in anger.
Indeed, the flying squirrel had learned five skills, but when put to use, they were useless. How could they be called real skills.
田野里有一種小動物，名叫“鼯鼠”。
它逢友便說：“我有五種本領：會飛，會走，會游泳，會爬樹，還會掘土大洞。”
于是，小伙伴們譏笑它說：“你雖然學了這種本領，卻一種也沒有學好。會飛，卻飛得不高;會游泳，卻游得不遠;會爬樹，卻爬不到樹頂;會掘土打洞，卻打得不深�！�
鼯鼠聽了小伙伴們的話后，氣呼呼地跑了。
是啊，鼯鼠是學了五種本領，但是用起來，卻一種也不中用，這怎么能說是有真本領呢!
