幼儿英语小故事：The Swallow And The CrowThere was once a Swallow that lived in the green forest.He was handsome.He had pretty feathers.The girl birds would say:Oh,he is so handsome! His feathers are beautiful.The swallow was proud of his good looks.And every day,he looked into his mirrror.Look at my feathers! They are so soft and beatiful. I am a lovely bird.One day,a crow was flying by.He heard the swallow singing.I am so wonderful.I am so beautiful. I have the best feathers in the world.The crow stopped and looked at the swallow.What are you singing about?I am the prettiest bird in the sky. You must be very jealous. You are not pretty like me.The crow became very angry.Ha! You think that you are so great. My feathers are much better than yours.You are joking! Your feathers are black and thick. Mine are light and beautiful.The crow and the swallow began to argue.They argued about who had better feathers.They argued and argued and argued.Your feathers maybe light and beautiful but mine are much better.Nonsense,only a fool would say your feathers are better than mine.The crow was clever.He could prove that his feathers were better.All right! Let us go to the wise bird of the North. We will ask her who was better feathers.I will do because I like to hear other birds tell me how wonderful my feathers look. The wise bird will choose me.So the two birds flew north to see the wise bird of the North.On the way to see the wise bird,the crow and the swallow passed many birds.All of the other birds thought that the swallow was very handsome.Oh,look at him. He is handsome.He sure is. He is the most handsome bird.As the birds flew north,the air became cooler.I am getting cold. It is very cold here in the North.Yes,it is. The North is very cold. We should hurry to the wise birds house.Yes,lets hurry.As the birds flew even further north,it started to snow.Now it was very cold.The swallow had to stop flying.I am freezing. I cannot fly anymore.The problem is that your feathers are not very good. My feathers are strong and thick. They keep me warm.The crow helped to warm the swallow with his feathers.You are right! Your feathers are warm. They are very warm.Whose feathers are better,mine or yours?I guess yours are better. I was too proud of my feathers.When the birds returned home,the swallow told everyone what had happened.Crow saved my life with his wonderful feathers.Hurray for Crow!Oh,Crow! You do have nice,thick,black feathers. They are excellent!From that day on,the swallow never flaunted his feathers in front of others. 燕子和乌鸦曾经有一只燕子生活在绿色的森林里。他很英俊。他有漂亮的羽毛。鸟小姐们会?说：“哦，他是如此英俊，他的羽毛很漂亮！”燕子为他英俊的外表而感到自豪。每一天，他都会照着他的镜子。“看看我的羽毛，他们是那么的柔软和美丽。我是一只多么可爱的小鸟。”一天，一只乌鸦飞过。他听到燕子的歌声。“我是如此美妙。我是如此美丽。我有世界上最好的羽毛。”乌鸦停了下来，看着燕子。“你在唱什么？”“我是天空中最漂亮的鸟。你非常嫉妒，你没有我那么漂亮。”乌鸦变得非常生气。“哈，你认为你好，我的羽毛比你的更好。”“你开玩笑吧！你的羽毛是黑色的，还很厚。我的羽毛是如此光亮和美丽。”乌鸦和燕子争吵起来。他们都认为自己的羽毛更好。他们不听的争论着。“也许你的羽毛轻盈美观，但我的要好得多。”“胡说，只有傻瓜才会说你的羽毛比我更好。”乌鸦是很聪明的。他可以证明自己的羽毛更好。“好吧！让我们去北方找最明智的鸟。我们去问她谁的羽毛更好。”“我会这样做的，因为我也想听到其他鸟告诉我，我的羽毛看起来是多么美妙。聪明的鸟一定会选择我。”因此，这两只鸟一起往北飞，去北方找聪明的鸟。在去寻找聪明的鸟的路上，乌鸦和燕子见到了许多鸟类。其他鸟都以为燕子很英俊。“哦，看着他，他是那么英俊。”“确实是，他是最漂亮的鸟。”当鸟来到北方时，空气变得很冷。“我越来越冷，北方非常寒冷。”“是的，就是这样。北方是非常冷，我们应该赶紧找到聪明的鸟的房子。”“是的，让我们抓紧时间吧。”当他们往更北的地方飞时，开始下雪了。现在，天气非常冷。燕子只好停止飞行。“我冻僵了。我不能飞了。”“知识因为你的羽毛不好。我的羽毛是又强又厚。它们使我温暖。”乌鸦用它的羽毛温暖燕子。“你说得对！你的羽毛很温暖，他们确实跟暖和。”“谁的羽毛更好，我的还是你的吗？
