英语童话小故事 篇1
The wolf in sheeps clothing
A qolf resolved to disguise himself in order that he might prey1 upon a flock of sheep without fear of detection.
So he clothed himself in a sheepskin, and slipped among the sheep when they were out at pasture. He completely deceived the shepherd, and when the flock was penned for the night he was shut in with the rest.
But that very night as it happened, the shepherd, requiring a supply of mutton for the table, laid hands on the wolf in mistake for a sheep, and killed him with his knife on the spot.
英语童话小故事 篇2
THERE was an old mansion surrounded by a marshy ditch with a drawbridge which was butseldom let down:- not all guests are good people. Under the roof were loopholes to shootthrough, and to pour down boiling water or even molten lead on the enemy, should heapproach. Inside the house the rooms were very high and had ceilings of beams, and that wasvery useful considering the great deal of smoke which rose up from the chimney fire where thelarge, damp logs of wood smouldered. On the walls hung pictures of knights in armour andproud ladies in gorgeous dresses; the most stately of all walked about alive. She was calledMeta Mogen; she was the mistress of the house, to her belonged the castle. Towards theevening robbers came; they killed three of her people and also the yard-dog, and attached Mrs.Meta to the kennel by the chain, while they themselves made good cheer in the hall and drankthe wine and the good ale out of her cellar. Mrs.
Meta was now on the chain, she could noteven bark. But lo! the servant of one of the robbers secretly approached her; they must not seeit, otherwise they would have killed him. "Mrs. Meta Mogen," said the fellow, "do you stillremember how my father, when your husband was still alive, had to ride on the wooden horse?You prayed for him, but it was no good, he was to ride until his limbs were paralysed; but youstole down to him, as I steal now to you, you yourself put little stones under each of his feetthat he might have support, nobody saw it, or they pretended not to see it, for you were thenthe young gracious mistress. My father has told me this, and I have not forgotten it! Now I willfree you, Mrs. Meta Mogen!"
Then they pulled the horses out of the stable and rode off in rainand wind to obtain the assistance of friends. "Thus the small service done to the old man wasrichly rewarded!" said Meta Mogen. "Delaying is not forgetting," said the fellow. The robberswere hanged. There was an old mansion, it is still there; it did not belong to Mrs. Meta Mogen,it belonged to another old noble family. We are now in the present time. The sun is shining onthe gilt knob of the tower, little wooded islands lie like bouquets on the water, and wild swansare swimming round them. In the garden grow roses; the mistress of the house is herself thefinest rose petal, she beams with joy, the joy of good deeds: however, not done in the wideworld, but in her heart, and what is preserved there is not forgotten. Delaying is notforgetting!
Now she goes from the mansion to a little peasant hut in the field. Therein lives apoor paralysed girl; the window of her little room looks northward, the sun does not enter here.The girl can only see a small piece of field which is surrounded by a high fence. But to-day thesun shines here- the warm, beautiful sun of God is within the little room; it comes from thesouth through the new window, where formerly the wall was. The paralysed girl sits in the warmsunshine and can see the wood and the lake; the world had become so large, so beautiful, andonly through a single word from the kind mistress of the mansion. "The word was so easy, thedeed so small," she said, "the joy it afforded me was infinitely great and sweet!"
And thereforeshe does many a good deed, thinks of all in the humble cottages and in the rich mansions,where there are also afflicted ones. It is concealed and hidden, but God does not forget it.Delayed is not forgotten! An old house stood there; it was in the large town with its busy traffic.There are rooms and halls in it, but we do not enter them, we remain in the kitchen, where itis warm and light, clean and tidy; the copper utensils are shining, the table as if polished withbeeswax; the sink looks like a freshly scoured meatboard. All this a single servant has done,and yet she has time to spare as if she wished to go to church; she wears a bow on her cap, ablack bow, that signifies mourning. But she has no one to mourn, neither father nor mother,neither relations nor sweetheart. She is a poor girl. One day she was engaged to a poor fellow;they loved each other dearly.
One day he came to her and said: "We both have nothing! Therich widow over the way in the basement has made advances to me; she will make me rich,but you are in my heart; what do you advise me to do?" "I advise you to do what you think willturn out to your happiness," said the girl. "Be kind and good to her, but remember this; fromthe hour we part we shall never see each other again." Years passed; then one day she met theold friend and sweetheart in the street;
he looked ill and miserable, and she could not helpasking him, "How are you?" "Rich and prospering in every respect," he said; "the woman isbrave and good, but you are in my heart. I have fought the battle, it will soon be ended; weshall not see each other again now until we meet before God!" A week has passed; this morninghis death was in the newspaper, that is the reason of the girl's mourning! Her old sweetheart isdead and has left a wife and three step-children, as the paper says; it sounds as if there is acrack, but the metal is pure.
The black bow signifies mourning, the girl's face points to thesame in a still higher degree; it is preserved in the heart and will never be forgotten. Delayingis not forgetting! These are three stories you see, three leaves on the same stalk. Do you wishfor some more trefoil leaves? In the little heartbook are many more of them. Delaying is notforgetting!
隐存着并不就是被忘却
有一座古老的庄园。庄园外面有一条泥泞的护庄沟,上面有一座吊桥。吊桥吊起的时候比放下的时候多,来访的人并不都是好人。屋檐下面有许多洞眼,可以朝外放枪。要是敌人靠得太近,还可以从这些洞里往外泼开水,是啊,甚至倒融化了的铅。屋里木顶很高,这对于因壁炉烧大块的湿木头而冒出的那些烟是很好的出路。墙上挂着身穿铠甲的男人和衣着臃肿、傲气十足的妇人的画像。这些女人中最高贵的一位现在还活着,住在这里,她的名字叫麦特·莫恩斯。她是这座庄园的主人。
一天傍晚,强盗来了。他们杀死了她家的三口人,连看庄园的狗也被杀了。接着他们用拴狗的链子把麦特夫人拴在狗窝里,他们自己则坐在大厅里,喝着从她的地窖里搬来的葡萄酒和上等啤酒。
麦特夫人被狗链子拴着,她连像狗那样吠也不行。接着强盗里的'一个小孩子来了,他蹑手蹑脚一点声音都没有。他不能让人察觉,一被发觉他们便会杀死他。
“麦特·莫恩斯夫人!”小男孩说道,“你记得你丈夫在世的时候,我的父亲被捆在木马①上吗?那时你为他求情,但是没有用;他必须骑在上面,骑成残废。但是你悄悄地走来,就像我现在悄悄地溜来一样;你亲手在他的脚下摆上了一小块石头,让他能够休息。没有人看见,或者他们装作没看见。你是那位年轻仁慈的夫人。我父亲对我说过,我把这事隐存着,但并不曾忘却!现在我来解救你,麦特·莫恩斯夫人!”接着他们从马厩牵来马,在风雨中骑马跑了,他们得到了人们友好的帮助。
“我对那位老人做的一点善事却得到了这样好的回报!”麦特·莫恩斯夫人说道。
“隐存不是被遗忘!”男孩说道。
强盗后来被处以绞刑。
有一座古老的庄园,它也还在那里。它不是麦特·莫恩斯夫人的。它属于另外一个高贵的家族。
这是我们的时代。太阳照在金光闪闪的塔尖上,一座座郁郁葱葱的小岛像花环似地浮在水上,小岛的四周有野天鹅在游弋。园子里生长着玫瑰,庄园的女主人便是最美的玫瑰花;她在欢乐中,在善行的欢乐中闪闪发光,不是在广阔的世界里,而是在心中。它隐存在那里,但不等于被忘却。现在她从庄园走向田野里一所孤单的小房子。房里住着一个可怜的、瘫痪的女孩子。她房间里的窗是朝北面开的,阳光不能射进来,她只能看到被那条很高的沟堤隔断的一小片田野。但是今天屋子里有阳光了,上帝那温暖可爱的阳光射进来了。这阳光是从南墙上新开的窗子里射进来的。以前那边只是一道墙。
瘫痪的姑娘坐在温暖的阳光里,看着树林和海滩。世界变得宽阔起来,十分可爱,这一切都是庄园里的那位夫人的一句话带来的。
“讲一句话是轻而易举的,做的事是那么微不足道!”她说道。“我得到的快乐却无边无垠,十分幸福。”
因为如此,她作了许多许多的善事,她心中装着贫寒家庭和有痛苦的富裕家庭的每一个人。善行隐存着,但是没有被上帝忘却。
有一座古老的宅子,它在那座热闹的大城市里。宅子里有厅有堂。我们不进厅堂去,我们留在厨房里。那儿暖和、明亮,清洁而整齐;铜器都闪闪发光,桌子就像是打了蜡一样亮,洗碗盆就像是刚刨光的砧板。这都是一个女佣收拾的,她甚至还有时间将自己打扮整齐,就像要去教堂一般。她的帽子上打了一个蝴蝶结——一个黑色的结子,这是表示哀悼的。可是并没有要她照顾的人,她没有父亲也没有母亲,没有亲戚也没有恋人。她是一个贫苦的女孩子。她曾经订过婚,是和一个贫苦的男佣;他们真诚地相爱着。有一天他来找她。“我们两人什么东西都没有!”他说道。“那边那个住在地下室的有钱的寡妇对我说了许多热情的话,她将让我富裕起来。但是只有你在我的心中。你说我该怎么办?”
“你所相信的,便是你的幸福!”姑娘说道。“和善地、亲切地对待她。可是请记住,从我们分手的那一刻起,我们就不能常见面了。
——两年过去了。一天她在街上遇见了昔日的朋友和恋人,他看上去一副可怜的病态。于是她不得不管,必须问一句:“你到底怎么了?”
“怎么说都算得上很富裕很好!”他说道。“那妇人很能干很善良,但你在我的心中。我斗争得很厉害,一切很快便会结束!我们去上帝那儿之前,再也见不到了。”
过了一个星期。晨报上说他去世了。所以姑娘便戴上了表示哀悼的结子。她从报纸上读到,他死后留下了那位妻子和前夫的三个孩子。钟声浑浊不清,可是铸钟的铜是很纯净的。
她的黑蝴蝶结表示哀悼。姑娘的脸显得更加哀伤。“它隐存在心中,永不被忘却!”
是啊,瞧,这里有三个故事,一根秆上的三片花瓣。你还希望有更多的花瓣吗?心的书里有许多;它们被隐藏起来,并不是被遗忘。
英语童话小故事 篇3
There were three of them. There were four of us, and April lay on the campsite and on the river, a mixture of dawn at a damp extreme and the sun in the leaves at cajole. This was Deer Lodge1on the Pine River in Ossipee, New Hampshire, though the lodge was naught2 but a foundation remnant in the earth. Brother Bentley's father, Oren, had found this place sometime after the First World War, a foreign affair that had seriously done him no good but he found solitude3abounding4 here. Now we were here, post World War II, post Korean War, Vietnam War on thebrink5. So much learned, so much yet to learn.
Peace then was everywhere about us, in the riot of young leaves, in the spree of bird confusion and chatter6, in the struggle of pre-dawn animals for the start of a new day, a CooperHawk7 that had smashed down through trees for a squealing8 rabbit, yap of a fox at a youngster, a skunk9 at rooting.
We had pitched camp in the near darkness, Ed LeBlanc, Brother Bentley, Walter Ruszkowski, myself. A dozen or more years we had been here, and seen no one. Now, into our campsite deep in the forest, so deep that at times we had to rebuild sections of narrow road (more a logger's path) flushed out by earlier rains, deep enough where we thought we'd again have no traffic, came a growling10 engine, an old solid body van, a Chevy, the kind I had driven for Frankie Pike and the Lobster11 Pound in Lynn delivering lobsters12 throughout the Merrimack Valley. It had pre-WW II high fenders, a faded black paint on a body you'd swear had been hammered out of corrugated13 steel, and an engine that made sounds too angry and too early for the start of day. Two elderly men, we supposed in their seventies, sat the front seat; felt hats at the slouch and decorated with an assortment14 of tied flies like a miniature bandoleer ofammunition15 on the band. They could have been conscripts for Emilano Zappata, so loaded their hats and their vests as they climbed out of the truck.
"Mornin', been yet?" one of them said as he pulled his boots up from the folds at his knees, the tops of them as wide as a big mouth bass16 coming up from the bottom for a frog sitting on a lily pad. His hands were large, the fingers long and I could picture them in a shop barn working aprimal17 plane across the face of a maple18 board. Custom-made, old elegance19, those hands said.
"Barely had coffee," Ed LeBlanc said, the most vocal1 of the four of us, quickest at friendship, at shaking hands. "We've got a whole pot almost. Have what you want." The pot was pointed2out sitting on a hunk of grill3 across the stones of our fire, flames licking lightly at its sides. The pot appeared as if it had been at war, a number of dents4 scarred it, the handle had evidently been replaced, and if not adjusted against a small rock it would have fallen over for sure. Once, a half-hour on the road heading north, noting it missing, we'd gone back to get it. When we fished the Pine River, coffee was the glue, the morning glue, the late evening glue, even though we'd often unearth5 our beer from a natural cooler in early evening. Coffee, camp coffee, has a ritual. It is thick, it is dark, it is potboiled over a squaw-pine fire, it is strong, it is enough to wake the demon6 in you, stoke last evening's cheese and pepperoni. First man up makes the fire, second man the coffee; but into that pot has to go fresh eggshells to hold the grounds down, give coffee a taste of history, a sense of place. That means at least one egg be cracked open for its shells, usually in the shadows and glimmers7 of false dawn. I suspect that's where "scrambled8 eggs" originated, from some camp like ours, settlers rushing west, lumberjacks hungry, hoboes lobbying for breakfast. So, camp coffee has made its way into poems, gatherings9, memories, a time and thing not letting go, not being manhandled, not being cast aside.
"You're early enough for eggs and bacon if you need a start." Eddie added, his invitation tossedkindly10 into the morning air, his smile a match for morning sun, a man of welcomes. "We have hot cakes, kulbassa, home fries, if you want." We have the food of kings if you really want to know. There were nights we sat at his kitchen table at 101 Main Street, Saugus, Massachusetts planning the trip, planning each meal, planning the campsite. Some menus were founded on a case of beer, a late night, a curse or two on the ride to work when day started.
"Been there a'ready," the other man said, his weaponry also noted11 by us, a little more orderly in its presentation, including an old Boy Scout12 sash across his chest, the galaxy13of flies in supreme14 positioning. They were old Yankees, in the face and frame the pair of them undoubtedly15 brothers, staunch, written into early routines, probably had been up at three o'clock to get here at this hour. They were taller than we were, no fat on their frames, wide-shouldered, big-handed, barely coming out of their reserve, but fishermen. That fact alone would win any of us over. Obviously, they'd been around, a heft of time already accrued16.
Then the pounding came, from inside the truck, as if a tire iron was beating at the sides of the vehicle. It was not a timid banging, not a minor1 signal. Bang! Bang! it came, and Bang! again. And the voice of authority from some place in space, some regal spot in the universe. "I'm not sitting here the livelong day whilst you boys gab2 away." A toothless meshing3 came in his words, like Walter Brennan at work in the jail in Rio Bravo or some such movie.
"Comin', pa," one of them said, the most orderly one, the one with the old scout4 sash riding him like a bandoleer.
They pulled open the back doors of the van, swung them wide, to show His Venerable Self, ageless, white-bearded, felt hat too loaded with an arsenal5 of flies, sitting on a white wicker rocker with a rope holding him to a piece of vertical6 angle iron, the crude kind that could have been on early subways or trolley7 cars. Across his lap he held three delicate fly rods, old as him, thin, bamboo in color, probably too slight for a lake's three-pounder. But on the Pine River, upstream or downstream, under alders8 choking some parts of the river's flow, at a significant pool where side streams merge9 and phantom10 trout11 hang out their eternal promise, most elegant, fingertip elegant.
"Oh, boy," Eddie said at an aside, "there's the boss man, and look at those tools."Admiration12 leaked from his voice.
Rods were taken from the caring hands, the rope untied13, and His Venerable Self, white wicker rocker and all, was lifted from the truck and set by our campfire. I was willing to bet that my sister Pat, the dealer14 in antiques, would scoop15 up that rocker if given the slightest chance. The old one looked about the campsite, noted17 clothes drying from a previous day's rain, order of equipment and supplies aligned18 the way we always kept them, the canvas of our tent taut19 and true in its expanse, our fishing rods off the ground and placed atop the flyleaf so as not to tempt20 raccoons with smelly cork21 handles, no garbage in sight. He nodded.
We had passed muster22.
"You the ones leave it cleaner than you find it ever' year. We knowed sunthin' 'bout16 you. Never disturbed you afore. But we share the good spots." He looked closely at Brother Bentley, nodded a kind of recognition. "Your daddy ever fish here, son?"
Brother must have passed through the years in a hurry, remembering his father bringing him here as a boy. "A ways back," Brother said in his clipped North Saugus fashion, outlander, specific, no waste in his words. Old Oren Bentley, it had been told us, had walked five miles through the unknown woods off Route 16 as a boy and had come across the campsite, the remnants of an old lodge1, and a great curve in the Pine River so that a mile's walk in either direction gave you three miles of stream to fish, upstream or downstream. Paradise up north.
His Venerable Self nodded again, a man of signals, then said, "Knowed him way back some. Met him at the Iron Bridge. We passed a few times." Instantly we could see the story. A whole history of encounter was in his words; it marched right through us the way knowledge does, as well as legend. He pointed2 at the coffeepot. "The boys'll be off, but my days down there get cut up some. I'll sit a while and take some of thet." He said thet too pronounced, too dramatic, and it was a short time before I knew why.
The white wicker rocker went into a slow and deliberate motion, his head nodded again. Hespoke3 to his sons. "You boys be back no more'n two-three hours so these fellers can do their things too, and keep the place tidied up."
The most orderly son said, "Sure, pa. Two-three hours." The two elderly sons left the campsite and walked down the path to the banks of the Pine River, their boots swishing at thigh4 line, the most elegant rods pointing the way through scattered5 limbs, experience on the move.Trout6 beware, we thought.
"We been carpenters f'ever," he said, the clip still in his words. "Those boys a mine been some good at it too." His head cocked, he seemed to listen for their departure, the leaves and branches quiet, the murmur7 of the stream a tinkling8 idyllic9 music rising up the banking10. Old Venerable Himself moved the wicker rocker forward and back, a small timing11 taking place. He was hearing things we had not heard yet, the whole symphony all around us. Eddie looked at me and nodded his own nod. It said, "I'm paying attention and I know you are. This is our one encounter with a man who has fished for years the river we love, that we come to twice a year, in May with the mayflies, in June with the black flies." The gift and the scourge12, we'd often remember, having been both scarred and sewn by it.
Brother was still at memory, we could tell. Silence we thought was heavy about us, but there was so much going on. A bird talked to us from a high limb1. A fox called to her young. We were on the Pine River once again, nearly a hundred miles from home, in Paradise2.
"Name's Roger Treadwell. Boys are Nathan and Truett." The introductions had been accounted for.
Old Venerable Roger Treadwell, carpenter, fly fisherman, rocker, leaned forward and said, "You boys wouldn't have a couple spare beers, would ya?"
Now that's the way to start the day on the Pine River.

Long ago in a small,faraway village,there was a place known as the House of 1000 Mirrors. A small,happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit. When he arrived,he hounced happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house. He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great surprise,he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his.
He smiled a great smile,and was answered with 1000 great smiles just as warm and firendly. As he left the House,he thought to himself,This is a wonderful place. I will e back and visit it often.
In this same village,another little dog,who was not quite as happy as the first one,decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door. When he saw the 1000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him,he growled at them and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left,he thought to himself,That is a horrible place,and I will never go back there again.
