简单的英语小故事三篇 篇一 It happened that a dog had some meat that he wanted to eat at home. On his way home he met a river. As he looked down, he saw his shadow in the water. Just look!said he to himself. That dog down there has some meat, too. If I could get it away from him, I would really eat well tonight! With this thought, he made a snap at the other dogs meat. And as he did, his own meat fell into the water. So then he had nothing at all. Then he saw that the other dog had lost his meat, too. That is as it should be!?thought he. For I saw him trying to take my meat away from me. By wanting to have everything, he has lost everything he had! 一只狗叼着肉打算回家去吃。在回家的路上他遇到一条河。他朝河里望去，看见水中自己的影子。 “看呐!”他自言自语道。“下面那条狗也衔着肉呢。如果我把他的抢走，今晚上一定能够美餐一顿了!” 这么想着，他就冲那只影子狗咬去，这时候他自己的肉掉进了水里。当然他什么也没有得到。 然后，他看到另一只狗的肉也没了。“活该!”他想，“因为我看到他想从我这里抢走我的肉。” 什么都想要，却失去了原来所拥有的! 篇二 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 fron 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 mum. He told his mum 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. Real knowledge comes from practice. 一天，一匹小马驮着麦子去磨坊。当它驮着口袋向前跑去时，突然发现一条小河挡住了去路。小马为难了，这可怎么办呢?它向四周望了望，看见一头奶牛在河边吃草。小马问道：“牛阿姨，请您告诉我，这条河我能趟过去吗?”奶牛回答说：“水很浅，刚到膝盖。” 小马正准备过河，突然从树上跳下一只松鼠，拦住它大叫道：“小马，别过河! 你会被淹死的。昨天，我的一个伙伴就在这条河里淹死啦!”小马不知如何是好，于是决定回家问问妈妈。 小马把路上的经历告诉了妈妈。妈妈说：“孩子，光听别人说是不行的，你自己亲自去试一试，就知道答案了。” 小马回到河边，刚要下水，松鼠又大叫起来：“小马，你不要命啦?”小马说：“让我自己试试吧。”他一面回答一面下了河，小心地趟了过去。 实践出真知。 篇三 One day a crow stood on a branch near his nest and felt very happy with the meat in his mouth. At that time, a fox saw the crow with the meat, so he swallowed and eagerly thought of a plan to get the meat. However, whatever the fox said to the crow, the crow just kept silent.
