1英文童话故事

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 come 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"

All the faces in the world are mirrors What kind of reflections do you see in the faces of the people you meet

很久以前的一个很远的小村庄里，有一个以"千镜屋"而的地方。一个乐观的小狗听说了这个地方并决定去参观。当来到这个地方，他蹦蹦跳欢恰快的上了台阶，来到房门口，他高高竖起耳朵，欢快地摇着尾巴，从门口往里张望，他惊奇地看到有1000只欢乐的小狗像他一样快的摇尾巴。他灿烂地微笑着，回报他的是1000张热情，友好的灿烂笑脸。离开时他心想："这是一个精彩的地主，我一定要经常来参观。"

在这个村里还有另一只想参观"千镜屋"的小狗，他不及第一只小狗乐观，他慢吞吞地爬上台阶，然后耷拉着脑袋往屋子里看。一看到有1000只小狗不友好地盯着他，他便开始冲他们狂吠，镜中的1000只小狗也冲着他狂吠，把他给吓坏了，他在离开时心想："这是一个恐怖的地方，我再也不会来了。"

世界上所有的脸都是镜子，在你所遇见的人的脸上你看到反射出来的是什么

3英文童话故事

Io was the daughter of a rivergod She was loved，run after and won by Zeus

伊俄是河神的女儿，宙斯爱她、追求她、并得到了她。

Hera became so green eyed that she flew down from Olympus one day to pay her rival back Zeus，however，had foreseen her arrival and changed Io into a beautiful white little cow Seeing through the trick，Hera asked for the cow as a present and Zeus had to give in to her wish Then she left the cow to the care of a hundred eyed monster，Argus

赫拉对此嫉妒不已。一天她飞下奥林波斯山向情敌施加报复。然而宙斯早已预见到她的光临，就将伊俄变成了一头美丽的小白牛犊，赫拉看穿了其中的诡计，非要一头牛犊作为礼物。宙斯无奈，只得让她如愿以偿。赫拉便将牛犊托付给百眼魔鬼阿刚斯看管。

Argus eyes were ever open and no escape was possible Unable to bear to see her so unhappy，Zeus sent Hermes down to destroy the monster Dressed up as a shepherd，Hermes lulled Argus to sleep with his sweet songs and long stories，then killed him and set Io free

阿刚斯的眼睛永远睁着，要想逃脱是不可能的。看到伊俄如此忧郁，宙斯简直无法忍受，便令赫耳墨斯将魔鬼铲除。赫耳墨斯乔装成牧羊人给阿刚斯唱悦耳动听的歌，讲冗长乏味的故事以哄他入睡。之后便寻机杀死魔鬼，释放了伊俄。

But Heras anger was not to be calmed down yet She sent a gadfly to attack the cow and drive her from land to land In her misery the cow passed over the strait which divides Europe and Asia In this way the strip of water got its name Bosporus ，the way of the cow

但赫拉的狂怒并未消除。她派了一只牛虻去攻击牛犊，使她颠沛流离。在十分悲痛之中，牛犊穿越了分隔欧亚大陆的海峡。从此这片狭长的水域被称作博斯普鲁斯海峡，意为牛犊之路。

She wandered over the sea，which by chance got from her its name the Ionian Sea In the end she arrived in Egypt where she was turned back into her natural form She settled down and gave birth to a son，Some of her children remained in Egypt and ruled as kings for a longtime

她接着漫游过海，这片大海也就在偶然中有了名称——伊奥尼亚海，最后她到了埃及，并恢复了她本来的体态和容貌。她在那里落户并生了个儿子。她的一些子孙就呆在了埃及，当了很长时间的国王

4英文童话故事

Far out in the sea there was an island，on the rocky edge of which lived three Sirens，the three sisters of magic song Half human and half bird，the Siren sisters sat in a field of flowers，singing in voices that excited the hearts of menThe attractive songs were so sweet that ships were attracted to the island and struck to pieces on the rocksNo sailor nor ship had ever been known to pass the Island of the Sirens without being attracted to disaster

遥远的海面上有一岛屿，石崖边居住着唱魔歌的海妖塞壬三姐妹。半人半岛的塞壬姐妹们坐在一片花丛里，唱着盎惑人心的歌，甜美的歌声把过往的船只引向该岛，然后撞上礁石船毁人亡。过往的海员和船只都受到迷惑走向毁灭，无一幸免。

Acting on the advice of Circe，Odysseus took careful preparation against the SirensBefore their ships came to where they could hear the song，Odysseus had himself tied to the mast ，stopped the ears of his men with wax and ordered them to ignore his orders and gestures when they were passing the fatal island

奥德修斯遵循女神喀耳斯的忠告。为了对付塞壬姐妹，他采取了谨慎的防备措施。船只还没驶到能听到歌声的地方，奥德修斯就令人把他拴在桅杆上，并吩咐手下用蜡把他们的耳朵塞住。他还告诫他们通过死亡岛时不要理会他的命令和手势。

Soon they came in sight of the rocky island，and the attractive song reached the ears of OdysseusIt moved him so much that he struggled in despair to free himself and shouted for his men to turn towards the rich and flowery grass land of the singing sistersBut no one paid any attention to himThe sailors kept straight on until they were completely out of hearingThen his friends freed him and took the wax out of their earsFor once the Sirens had sung with no effectsThe eldest of the sisters，Partherope，loved Odysseus so much that she threw herself into the sea after his ships had passed

不久石岛就进入了他们的`视线。奥德修斯听到了迷人的歌声。歌声如此令人神往，他绝望地挣扎着要解除束缚，并向随从叫喊着要他们驶向正在繁花茂盛的草地上唱歌的海妖姐妹，但没人理他。海员们驾驶船只一直向前，直到最后再也听不到歌声。这时他们才给奥德修斯松绑，取出他们耳朵中的蜡。这次塞壬海妖们算是白唱了歌。三姐妹中的老大帕耳塞洛珀深深地爱慕着奥德修斯。当他的船只走过后，她就投海自尽了。

A 我需要一篇关于动物的英语故事

The o charts show that the ①increase in the US population has been acpanied by a corresponding decline in the number of wildlife species Far too many species have been lost already This poses a danger to the ecological balance

As the human population ②expands, more and more wild animals are hunted for food, or because they are thought to present a threat to man But studies show that one of the primary causes of the disappearance of wildlife is pollution, which is one of the consequences of population ③growth and economic development This makes us wonder if man is able to share this pla in harmony with other life forms

In my opinion, it is imperative(迫切的) to take steps to reverse the disturbing(令人困惑的) trend illustrated in the charts One measure would be to forbid the building of cities in areas where wild life is threatened with extinction But, more importantly, man must learn to stop polluting the environment, or he himself will bee extinct

The Dog and the Shadow（狗和影子）

It happened that a Dog had got a piece of meat and was carrying it home in his mouth to eat it in peace Now, on his way home he had to cross a plank lying across a running brook As he crossed, he looked down and saw his own shadow reflected in the water beneath Thinking it was another dog with another piece of meat, he made up his mind to have that also So he made a snap at the shadow in the water, but as he opened his mouth the piece of meat fell out, dropped into the water and was never seen more

一只狗嘴里衔着一块肉，走过一条河上面的桥，看见他自己在水里的影子，以为是另一只狗，那时狗衔着的肉，比他自己的还要大一倍。因此他仍掉自己的那一块，狠狠地扑向那只狗，想夺到那一块较大的肉。结果两头都落了空，因为他想要抓取在水中的那一块，只不过是一个影子，而原来的那一块，也被水冲走了。

Beware lest you lose the substance by grasping at the shadow

谨记，切莫因追逐幻影而丢失已有的东西。

译文

城里老鼠和乡下老鼠

从前，有两只老鼠，它们是好朋友。一只老鼠居住在乡村，另一只住在城里。很多年以后，乡下老鼠碰到城里老鼠，它说：“你一定要来我乡下的家看看。”于是，城里老鼠就去了。乡下老鼠领着它到了一块田地上它自己的家里。它把所有最精美食物都找出来给城里老鼠。城里老鼠说：“这东西不好吃，你的家也不好，你为什么住在田野的地洞里呢？你应该搬到城里去住，你能住上用石头造的漂亮房子，还会吃上美味佳肴，你应该到我城里的家看看。”

乡下老鼠就到城里老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮，好吃的东西也为他们摆好了。可是正当他们要开始吃的时候，听见很大的一阵响声，城里的老鼠叫喊起来：“快跑！快跑！猫来了！”他们飞快地跑开躲藏起来。

过了一会儿，他们出来了。当他们出来时，乡下老鼠说：“我不喜欢住在城里，我喜欢住在田野我的洞里。因为这样虽然贫穷但是快乐自在，比起虽然富有却要过着提心吊胆的生活来说，要好些。”

E 搜集动物世界中的亲情故事200字

谁说只有人类有亲情？其实，动物也是有亲情的。

以前，我听过这么一个感人的故事，故事的大意是：

有一条母狗，这条母狗在前几个星期生下了三个孩子。因为它的主人一下子养不了这么多狗，所以把三个孩子分别送给了别人，其中一只就是送给了邻居。

这只狗好像知道它与它的孩子生活得很近，所以每天不停地在邻居门前打转只要门一开，那只母狗就会冲着里面叫唤，直到里面也传出狗叫声母狗在门外叫，孩子在门里叫，好像在说：“孩子，你在里面吗？”小狗回应：“妈妈，我在，我在。”“你在那儿，好吗？你的主人有没有打你？他们对你好吗？”母狗关心地问道。“我在这儿好，就是想见见你，我的主人对我很好，没有打过我。”小狗回应道。母子好像这样一问一答地叫唤着。

有一天，作者发现这条母狗叼着一只鸡腿跑到门外去了，主人一直很奇怪，因为以前母狗都在家里吃饭，所以好奇之下跟着母狗跑去，主人跟着跟着进了邻居家的门，原来母狗把自己的食物叼给孩子吃，小狗在吃时，母狗还安安静静地看着它，好像觉得它吃不饱饭一样，把自己好吃的送给孩子吃。作者哭了。

其实，现在的父母也是这样的，总希望能把最好的生活，最好的衣物，最好的教育给孩子；希望孩子能比自己更强、更好。父亲的疼，母亲的爱，有父母的孩子都有疼爱，我希望所有的孩子都能回报自己的父母。

连狗都有亲情，难道人不如它们吗？亲情在父母之间；亲情在兄弟姐妹之间……母爱多伟大！

Old friends They finish your sentences, they remember the cat that ran away when you were twelve, and they tell you the truth when you’ve had a bad haircut But mostly, they are always there for you—whether it’s in person or via late night phone calls—through good times and bad But as the years pass, it becomes increasingly difficult to see each other, to make new memories Fortunately, my high school girlfriends and I vowed long ago not to let this happen We vowed to have reunions

老朋友。他们会接完你没说完的句子，他们记得在你十二岁时跑掉的那只猫，如果你剪了一个很糟糕的发型，他们会跟你说实话。但主要的是，不论是在美好抑或糟糕的日子里，他们总会在你身边——或是面对面交流，或是深夜与你通电话。但是随着年月流逝，彼此越来越难见到对方，也越来越难制造新的回忆了。幸运的是，很早以前，我与我的一帮高中女友们曾立下誓言不让这样的事发生。我们许诺一定要重聚。

A few months ago, we met up for a three-day weekend in the American Southwest We grew up together in Maine and have said for years that we should have an annual event, yet it’s often postponed or canceled due to schedule conflicts Not this year

几个月前的一个周末，我们在美国西南部聚了三天。我们一起在缅因州长大，这几年来一直都在说我们应该有个一年一度的聚会，但通常都因为日程计划冲突而延迟或取消。今年终于如愿了。

Four of us-two from San Francisco, one from Boston, and one from Seattle-boarded planes bound for Santa Fe, New Mexico, where one of the gang lives and works for an art gallery Two years ago, she moved there-escaped, rather-from the film industry in New York City, where she led a life that felt too fast, too unfulfilling The artist in her longed for vibrant landscapes and starry moonlit skies She wanted to drive a truck on dusty roads, a trusty dog at her side, riding shotgun She got all that and found love, too She is happy

我们一行四人——两个来自旧金山，一个来自波士顿，还有一个来自西雅图——登上了飞往新墨西哥州圣菲的航班。我们这帮人中有一个住在圣菲，为那里的一家画廊工作。两年前，她搬到那里——更准确地说是从纽约的**业中——逃离出来。她当时觉得在纽约生活节奏太快，太没有成就感。她那艺术家的本性向往生机盎然的自然景致和繁星点缀的月夜。她希望能在尘土飞扬的路上开着卡车，有只忠诚的狗坐在前排的乘客座位，陪伴她左右。这一切都实现了，她还找到了爱情。她是幸福快乐的。

The rest of us-still big city folks-converged on her like a cyclone straight out of the pages of a girlfriend novel Chattering and memory swapping, we were fifteen again in a space of five minutes Naturally, we relived some of the stories of our youth-angst and all-but we also brought much more to the gathering this time We were new people We were wives and girlfriends to someone back home We were businesswomen, artists and writers We were no longer girls, no longer post-college grads We were women

我们其余几人——仍然是大城市居民——像是从女性小说的页面中直接跳出来的一股旋风似地向她袭去。我们聊天、分享回忆，仿佛在短短的五分钟内又重返十五岁。我们自然而然地重温了年轻时候的故事——忧愁怅惘等种种情感——但我们给这次聚会带来的还不止这些。我们是有着全新身份的人。我们是家里那位的妻子或女友。我们是女商人、艺术家及作家。我们不再是小女孩，也不再是刚毕业的大学生。我们已成为女人。

I shared an air mattress that night with my friend from Boston, the one who calls me, while rubbernecking in traffic, to catch up on her cell phone, to tell me of her life and love On the next mattress was a gal from San Francisco, newly single and enjoying her independence Our host, the artist, shared her bedroom that weekend with a married dot-commer from San Francisco Yes, we are different, but we are also the same The years of our youth say so

那天晚上，我与来自波士顿的朋友共睡一张充气床。路上交通堵塞时,她会边看热闹边给我打电话闲聊，说说她的生活及爱情。旁边的另一张床上睡的是来自旧金山的朋友，她刚刚恢复单身，正享受着一个人的生活。我们的主人——那位艺术家,那个周末与来自旧金山，就职IT行业的一位已婚姐妹同住一间房。是的，我们变得不同了，但我们又仍然未变。我们的青春岁月可以证明这一切。

The apartment was open and we talked late into the night, our voices carrying back and forth between the rooms as we laughed, cackling about things that would only be humorous to friends with this kind of history The next morning, I awoke to a brilliant blue sky, beautifully contrasted by the earthy brown of the surrounding adobe It was Saturday and the art enthusiasts were out, so, with coffee in hand, I dropped off our host at work I returned to find the others still deep in slumber, deep lines on their faces evidence of a restful sleep

那房子的设计是开放式的，我们聊天至深夜，笑谈着那些要有同样经历才觉得逗笑的事情，大家的声音在各个房间之间来回飘荡着。第二天早上醒来后，我发现外面阳光灿烂,在周围那泥褐色的房屋的映衬下，蔚蓝的天空显得分外美丽。当天是周六，那些艺术爱好者们都出动了。于是，我手捧咖啡送我们的主人去工作。回来后,我发现其他人还在熟睡，她们脸上压出的深痕表明她们睡得很沉很香。

We checked out town and headed to the airport to pick up the last straggler, who came in from San Francisco for one night “I wouldn’t have missed this for anything,” she said, despite her 4 am trip to the airport That night we celebrated over margaritas and Southwestern fare, each of us gazing at the faces around the table as we wondered, who would have thought the bonds of childhood could last this long Some of us have been friends since the age of five, some since age twelve and, yet, here we are approaching the age of thirty Quite rapidly, I might add

我们离开城里，去机场接最后一个“落伍者”。她来自旧金山，会来呆上一晚。“我怎么也不能错过这次聚会。”她说。尽管她要凌晨四点赶到机场。那天晚上，我们喝着玛格丽塔酒，吃着美国西南部的佳肴来庆祝。彼此都凝望着围坐在桌子前的这些面孔，心生感慨：谁会想到孩童时的友谊可以维持这么长时间呢？我们其中一些人自五岁起便是朋友，有些是十二岁才开始成为朋友，然而，我们现在都接近三十岁了。真的过得很快，我不得不加上这句。

The weekend consisted of long talks by the pool, wonderful meals, and a hike that brought the entire group to tears Not tears of sadness or anger, but an outpouring of emotion over the sheer wonderment that we can be this close-twelve years after graduation-with such physical distance between us It’s heartbreaking that we can’t spend our days together in the same neighborhood, walking the same streets, reading the same newspaper at the same coffee shop But that’s life Grown-up life

那个周末的活动包括在池塘边长时间谈心，享用美味的饭菜以及一次让我们所有人泪湿衣襟的远足步行。这些不是伤心或愤怒的眼泪，而是纯粹惊叹尽管毕业十二年了，彼此距离那么遥远，但却能保持如此亲密的关系，眼泪是这种情感的迸发。我们不能在同一个社区里生活，不能每天走在同一条街道上，不能坐在同一间咖啡店里看同一份报纸，这都让人感到悲伤。但，这就是生活，成年人的生活。

Most amazing is the group’s adaptability to one another The months we spend apart are non-existent No need to get reacquainted, we jump back in the saddle and it’s as comfortable as ever Old friends-friends with an ever-present sense of support and sisterhood, friends that know each other innately-are hard to come by and yet we remain as tight today as we were, years ago, giggling in the back row of Mr McKechnie’s 9th grade math class

最让人觉得不可思议的是我们这帮人对彼此的适应性。仿佛我们分开的那些日子不曾存在过。无须重新了解熟悉对方，只要跳回各自的角色，舒心依旧。老朋友们——那些不断给予支持，姐妹情深的朋友，那些命定知心的朋友——是很难遇到的。然而如今，我们亲密如故，就像当年念九年级时在麦基奇尼先生教的数学课上我们在教室后排咯咯傻笑那样。

Life today, however, is no math class Our world, spinning slightly off its axis is full of doubt, full of fear Yet it reminds me-now, more than ever-how vital it is that we stay in close touch We may have questions about our future, but we have true faith in our past, and though this reunion of friends has come to a close, we are already drawing up plans for the next one

虽然我们如今已不用再上数学课了。我们的世界稍微有点离轴，其中充满了猜疑和恐惧。然而，这反而提醒了我——让我现在比以前更清楚地知道，保持亲密关系是多么的重要。我们可能会对未来充满疑问，但我们对于过去有真正的信念。尽管这次的朋友聚会已接近尾声，但我们已经开始着手计划下一次聚会了。

感情这事是可遇而不可求的。一段美好的感情是多么值得人们去珍惜啊。译后有感。

一)

有的时候, Sometimes,

经过一段时间, after a while,

我逐渐平静下来了, I calm down gradually,

我发现我的第一次情感是很浪漫的and find that my first passion is very romantic

就象充电电池一样,Like a charge battery,

当我在爱河的时候,when I was in love,

我总是陷入了她的爱的包围I encircled by her love at all time

我被她对我说的每一句话所吸引, I was attracted by every sentence she said to me

或许那是一个我永远不希望醒来的梦maybe it was a dream that I whish I could never wake up

我希望我爱的持久些, I hope my love can last longer,

我希望… I hope

就象突然停电一样，Suddenly,I felt like the power was cut,

我所有的希望都打破了,all my hopes were destroyed,

突然间我迷失在爱的幻觉中了, I missed in the hallucination of love in a sudden,

我不知道我在哪里,我要做什么,and didn't know where I was,what I wanted to do,

我为什么要做,我怎样去做才好…… why I should do,and how to do

就象朋友说的一样，As a friend's words,

明天一样是美好的一天,tomorrow will be still a fine day,

我将再找一块更好的电池, I will find a better battery,

一个适合的地方去添充我爱的故事, a suitable place to fill my love story,

继续着完美的爱的故事, and keep on the ideal love stoty

我希望…… I hope

-------------------------------

(二)

记数着当我们相识的日子,I count the days since we knew each other,

大约有一个月了 it's about a month

发生在我们身上的故事总是那么偶然 The story happens to us is always so casual

每次谈天我都叫你 “宝儿”I call you Baoer every time we chat,

我喜欢这么叫着 and I like calling you like this

有的时候我在想, Sometimes I was thinking

我怎样得到自己的情感, that how I could get my own passion,

实际上我越急, in fact,more anxious I felt,

就越不属于我 more difficult for me to get

稳当些就更好了If I could be steady,it would be better

每年的2月12日是个特殊的日子 12th February is a special day every year

红玫瑰,巧克力总是充满着爱的感觉red rose and chocolate are always filled with the feeling of love

即使我们的路还要一起走很远,Although we have a very long road to go together,

这都不重要it is unimportant

记得这些: Remember these,

我永远是你最好的朋友,I will be your best friend forever,

给你需要的勇气give you the courage you need,

支持你的一切 and support you all

相信我, Believe me,

最好的祝福给最好的朋友, the best blessing to my best friend,

把它发给遥远的土地上, send it to the soil faraway,

穿过太空达到你的心灵,it can reach to your heart through the outer space,

温暖你的身心 …… and warm your body and mind

7 写一篇关于让朋友快乐一点的英语作文

快乐的一周这一周，发生了许许多多的事。其中有两件事我觉得我表现得尤其出色，这两件事一件关于数学，不用说，另一件就关于语文了。周二，我们进行了数学第二单元测查。这天早上我心里就忐忑不安，牢牢记住了冯老师交给我们的四个字，“静生智慧”。意思是静下心来才能产生智慧。第二节课上课了，同学们陆陆续续的走进教室，拿出草稿本和大书。老师开始发卷子，发完卷子，我便认真的做起卷子来。我不断的在草稿本上打草稿，虽然我做的比较慢，不过我每题都在认真的做。“叮叮叮，叮叮叮！”下课了，同学们一一交上了卷子……到了下午，我更是把心提到了嗓子眼，因为下午王老师就要报分了。王老师走进教室，开始读分数表：“林依汶，100分！”我顿时惊呆了，几乎在想：“哇！林依汶尽然考了100分！”王老师接着往下报：“施睿99分，曾一丁99分……”“我尽然考了99分，呀！”看来这几天我进步还很大嘛！真是“功夫不负有心人”呀！周四，冯老师又表扬了我，说是因为我的字写得干净、整洁。记得那天爸爸出去了，没人在家，我的字真的写得很好吗？我不相信。可当冯老师翻看我作业本时，我才看见我的作业写的既干净又整洁，字也写得比较好。等到下午翻开我的作业本时一看，呀！全做对了！下次一定更加认真做作业！虽然很开心，不过我并没有变脸。因为冯老师曾经教过我们“不要变脸”，说直白了就是“胜不骄，败不馁”。这周我的收获也很大。第一，就是考试细心才能得高分；第二，就是家长不在家也要认真做作业；最后第三，就是懂得了“胜不娇，败不馁”的道理。这一周收获可真大呀！

8 关于有一种经历让我开心的英语作文

Saplings hope grow into towering trees, eagles longing for growth for the soaring eagle, I also aspire to bee a hero Kenjiro, meritorious Growth is long, the growth is difficult, growth is the happiness

I grew up looking forward to grow up fast, grow up can be like Zhuge Liang that jiggle lupine, "laughing, mast scull ashes", I can as a warrior for fighting for the freedom of the motherland, to experience the "Zuiwo battlefield Jun Mo

Laugh, the ancient battle, a few people back to the "tragic; I can shoulder the burden for parents to soothe the eye wrinkles, do a little" reported in the apartments "filial piety

These are the childhood dream of growing up, but the growth is so long, although we have grown for more than ten years, but we are far from the dream, we are not mature, we are still very naive

Growth is a long way, but also ists and turns, is full of thorns, and even the abyss

In the growth, the wind rain, cold storm, only a ile to treat these setbacks, in order to grow better in growth, bitter tears, there is a loss, sometimes there is the idea of "disillusioned", growth can as people

Meaning The problems as a challenge to a positive attitude towards the difficulties, as long as adhere to in the end, you will succeed, grow; trap and into the abyss in growth should always remain sober minded, battlefield do not panic, calm yourself Think ice

Leap, it will not cause "one slip into eternal regret" regret, dealing with all kinds of difficulties, not far from mature The growth such as plum blossoming "unless some cold biting cold, which was plum ell of incense" growth is happiness

Hardship and happiness is a in sister, always acpanied by growth in our every day

树苗盼望成长为参天大树,雏鹰向往成长为翱翔的雄鹰,我也渴望成为英雄儿郎,建功立业 成长是漫长的,成长是艰难的,成长又是幸福的

我从小就盼望快长大,长大后就可以像诸葛亮那样,轻摇羽扇,“谈笑间,樯橹灰飞烟灭”；我可以作为一名为祖国自由而战的勇士,体验一下“醉卧沙场君莫

笑,古来征战几人回”的悲壮；我可以肩挑着重担,替父母抚平眼角的皱纹,尽一点“报得三春晖”的孝心

这些都是儿时憧憬的长大后的情景,可是成长是那么的漫长,尽管我们已经成长了十多年,但我们离那梦太远了,我们不成熟,我们依然很幼稚

成长路是漫长的,同时也是曲折的,布满荆棘,甚至还有深渊

在成长中,有风有雨,有寒冷的风暴,只有笑着对待这些挫折,才能成长得更好；在成长中,有苦有泪,有彷徨,有时也有“看破红尘”的想法,成长岂能尽如人

意把困难视为挑战,以积极的态度对待困难,只要坚持到底,你就成功了,成长了；在成长中有陷阱和深渊,要时刻保持清醒的头脑,临阵不慌,镇定自己,三思

而后行,就不会造成“一失足成千古恨”的遗憾,更能应付各种困难,离成熟就不远了人的成长如寒梅吐蕊“若非一番寒彻骨,哪得梅花扑鼻香”成长是幸福,

磨难和幸福是一对双胞姐妹,时刻伴随在我们成长的每一天

灰姑娘（英汉对照）

Long ago, in a land far away, there lived a beautiful young girl She was very sad Her mother had died and her father had married again His new wife had two ugly daughters, Esmerelda and Griselda Soon after, her father also died and life immediately changed for the girl "You will be our servant, "said her stepmother "You will do everything we say" "You must sleep in the kitchens, by the fire," said the stepsisters After tending the fire, and cooking and leaning, the girl's clothes were very dirty She was called to clear away dishes "There are cinders all over your clothes!" exclaimed the stepmother "Cinders for Cinderella That's your new name Clear these things away, Cinderella" "Cinderella! Cinderella!" sang Esmerelda and Griselda "Oh, how clever you are, Mama!" Cinderella had to work very hard, as all the other servants were dismissed One day, an invitation arrived from the palace "Girls, listen to this," said the stepmother Cinderella was serving the breakfast She listened as her stepmother read the invitation "The King is having a ball," she said, excitedly "He is looking for a wife for the Prince! Oh, my dears, this is wonderful He will probably choose one of you, but it will be such a hard choice to make "Am I invited too, stepmother" asked Cinderella "You! Certainly not!" exclaimed her stepmother "The thought of such a thing A scruffy servant going to a ball, when only beautiful ladies are invited!" "Hah! Hah!" laughed the stepsisters "Beautiful! That doesn't include you, Cinderella!" "You may help my two lovely girls to get ready," said her stepmother "Oh," said Cinderella, sadly "We shall all have new dresses, girls, and we shall go shopping today Clear away these things, Cinderella" 'Oh, I wish I could go to the ball,' thought Cinderella The day of the ball arrived and the whole day was spent preparing Esmerelda and Griselda Cinderella did her best to make the sisters look pretty, but it was an impossible task Finally, the coach arrived to collect the girls and their mother Cinderella was very tired and she wandered back to the kitchens "Oh, I did so want to go," she sighed as she sat down by the fire "What's to stop you" asked a voice "Who's that" asked Cinderella, looking around "I'm here by the door" A strange woman walked up to Cinderella "I heard you the other day, wishing you could go to the ball Well, the ball is this evening, and you're going" "But how" asked Cinderella "What can you do" "Anything I want to," said the woman "I'm your fairy godmother, and I'm here to send you to the ball She sat down "Come now," she said "Dry those tears We have work to do I need a large pumpkin, two rats, two mice and a frog Can you find these" "Yes," said Cinderella, mystified by the request "Off you go, then" When Cinderella found all the things, her fairy godmother took them all outside "Now for the magic," she said She waved her hands and the air began to twinkle and sparkle The pumpkin began to grow and change, until standing there was a glittering coach The mice changed into two fine footmen, the frog into the driver, and the rats into two beautiful horses to pull the coach Cinderella clapped her hands "It's beautiful!" she cried "In you get," said her fairy godmother "But I can't go like this," said Cinderella "Like what" asked the fairy godmother "You look lovely to me" Cinderella looked at herself While the magic had been working on the pumpkin, it had also been working on her Instead of her ragged dress she wore a beautiful ball gown, with glass slippers on her feet "Oh, fairy godmother," said Cinderella "It's lovely How can I thank you" "By going to the ball," said the fairy godmother "Off you go, but remember, the magic stops working at midnight Everything will change back then Now go and enjoy yourself" "Good-bye, fairy godmother," called Cinderella, as the coach swept off Cinderella arrived at the palace and walked into the ballroom Everyone stopped and stared "Who is she" people asked, including her stepmother and stepsisters The Prince saw her, and had eyes for no one else for the rest of the evening Cinderella danced only with the Prince, and as the evening passed, he fell in love with her A clock chiming reminded Cinderella of her fairy godmother's warning 'It must be eleven o'clock,' she thought, but she asked the Prince "What time is it" "Almost midnight," he answered "Oh, no!" cried Cinderella "I must go!" "You can't Not now," said the Prince "I must" And Cinderella swept out of the room, and ran out of the palace As she ran, the clock finished chiming Cinderella's clothes changed back into rags, and the coach and horses were nowhere to be seen The Prince tried to follow, but he couldn't catch up When he reached the door, all he found was one glass slipper He ran to the main gate "Was a beautiful girl just driven out of here" he asked the guard "No, your Highness I've only seen a scruffy servant girl," the guard answered "I've lost her," said the Prince, and he returned sadly to the palace The next morning, Cinderella's stepmother and stepsisters were talking about the ball "Did you see the Prince, once that girl arrived" said Esmerelda "He wouldn't look at anybody else And it was my turn to dance with him" "Never mind, my dear," said her mother "She disappeared, so there will probably be another ball, and then you will be chosen" The Prince meanwhile decided to look for the mysterious girl he had fallen in love with He issued a proclamation "Whoever the glass shoe fits, shall be wife to the Prince" The Prince and his footman went from house to house of all the ladies invited to the ball First to the princesses, and then to the duchesses, and finally to all the ladies He finally arrived at the stepmother's house "It's my shoe!" cried Esmerelda, trying desperately to pull the shoe on "Please, miss!" said the footman "Your foot is too big you will break the slipper" Griselda tried the shoe, but her toes were far too long "Is there anyone else" asked the Prince "There's only Cinderella, the maid," said the stepmother "But she wasn't even at the ball" "All the ladies in the kingdom must try the slipper," said the footman Cinderella was called from the kitchen Esmerelda and Griselda laughed when they saw how dirty she was But their laughter turned to tears when they saw Cinderella's foot slide easily into the slipper "Oh!" they cried "It fits!" The Prince looked at Cinderella and realised that she was the girl that he had fallen in love with Cinderella took the other slipper from her pocket and put it on The Prince was delighted to have found her, and on a bright sunny day, he and Cinderella were married They lived happily ever after------------------------------------------------------------------------- 从前，有一个富人的妻子得了重病，在临终前，她把自己的独生女儿叫到身边说：“乖女儿，妈去了以后会在九泉之下守护你、保佑你的。”说完她就闭上眼睛死了。她被葬在了花园里，小姑娘是一个虔诚而又善良的女孩，她每天都到她母亲的坟前去哭泣。冬天来了，大雪为她母亲的坟盖上了白色的毛毯。春风吹来，太阳又卸去了坟上的银装素裹。冬去春来，人过境迁，他爸爸又娶了另外一个妻子。 新妻子带着她以前生的两个女儿一起来安家了。她们外表很美丽，但是内心却非常丑陋邪恶。她们到来之时，也就是这个可怜的小姑娘身受苦难之始。她们说：“要这样一个没用的饭桶在厅堂里干什么？谁想吃上面包，谁就得自己去挣得，滚到厨房里做厨房女佣去吧！” 说完又脱去她漂亮的衣裳，给她换上灰色的旧外套，恶作剧似地嘲笑她，把她赶到厨房里去了。她被迫去干艰苦的活儿。每天天不亮就起来担水、生火、做饭、洗衣，而且还要忍受她们姐妹对她的漠视和折磨。到了晚上，她累得筋疲力尽时，连睡觉的床铺也没有，不得不睡在炉灶旁边的灰烬中，这一来她身上都沾满了灰烬，又脏，又难看，由于这个原因她们就叫她灰姑娘。 有一次，父亲要到集市去，他问妻子的两个女儿，要他给她们带什么回来。第一个说：“我要漂亮的衣裳。”第二个叫道：“我要珍珠和钻石。”他又对自己的女儿说：“孩子，你想要什么？”灰姑娘说：“亲爱的爸爸，就把你回家路上碰着你帽子的第一根树枝折给我吧。” 父亲回来时，他为前两个女儿带回了她们想要的漂亮衣服和珍珠钻石。在路上，他穿过一片浓密的矮树林时，有一根榛树枝条碰着了他，几乎把他的帽子都要扫下来了，所以他把这根树枝折下来带上了。回到家里时，他把树枝给了他女儿，她拿着树枝来到母亲的坟前，将它栽到了坟边。她每天都要到坟边哭三次，每次伤心地哭泣时，泪水就会不断地滴落在树枝上，浇灌着它，使树枝很快长成了一棵漂亮的大树。不久，有一只小鸟来树上筑巢，她与小鸟交谈起来。后来她想要什么，小鸟都会给她带来。 国王为了给自己的儿子选择未婚妻，准备举办一个为期三天的盛大宴会，邀请了不少年轻漂亮的姑娘来参加。王子打算从这些参加舞会的姑娘中选一个作自己的新娘。灰姑娘的两个姐姐也被邀请去参加。她们把她叫来说道：“现在来为我们梳好头发，擦亮鞋子，系好腰带，我们要去参加国王举办的舞会。”她按她们的要求给她们收拾打扮完毕后，禁不住哭了起来，因为她自己也想去参加舞会。她苦苦哀求她的继母让她去，可继母说道：“哎哟！灰姑娘，你也想去？你穿什么去呀！你连礼服也没有，甚至连舞也不会跳，你想去参加什么舞会啊？”灰姑娘不停地哀求着，为了摆脱她的纠缠，继母最后说道：“我把这一满盆豌豆倒进灰堆里去，如果你在两小时内把它们都拣出来了，你就可以去参加宴会。”说完，她将一盆碗豆倒进灰烬里，扬长而去。灰姑娘没办法，只好跑出后门来到花园里喊道："掠过天空的鸽子和斑鸠，飞来吧！飞到这里来吧！快乐的鸟雀朋友们，飞来吧！快快飞到这里来吧！大伙快来帮我忙，快快拣出灰中的碗豆来吧！” 先飞来的是从厨房窗子进来的两只白鸽，跟着飞来的是两只斑鸠，接着天空中所有的小鸟都叽叽喳喳地拍动着翅膀，飞到了灰堆上。小白鸽低下头开始在灰堆里拣起来，一颗一颗地拣，不停地拣！其它的鸟儿也开始拣，一颗一颗地拣，不停地拣！它们把所有的好豆子都从灰里拣出来放到了一个盘子里面，只用一个小时就拣完了。她向它们道谢后，鸟雀从窗子里飞走了。她怀着兴奋的心情，端着盘子去找继母，以为自己可以去参加宴会了。但她却说道：“不行，不行！你这个邋遢女孩，你没有礼服，不会跳舞，你不能去。”灰姑娘又苦苦地哀求她让她去。继母这次说道：“如果你能在一个小时之内把这样的两盘豌豆从灰堆里拣出来，你就可以去了。”她满以为这次可以摆脱灰姑娘了，说完将两盘豌豆倒进了灰堆里，还搅和了一会，然后得意洋洋地走了。但小姑娘又跑到屋后的花园里和前次一样地喊道："掠过天空的鸽子和斑鸠，飞来吧！飞到这里来吧！快乐的鸟雀朋友们，飞来吧！快快飞到这里来吧！大伙快来帮我忙，快快拣出灰中的豌豆来吧！” 先飞来的是从厨房窗子进来的两只白鸽，跟着飞来的是两只斑鸠，接着天空中所有的小鸟都叽叽喳喳地拍动着翅膀，飞到了灰堆上。小白鸽低下头开始在灰堆里拣起来，一颗一颗地拣，不停地拣！其它的鸟儿也开始拣，一颗一颗地拣，不停地拣！它们把所有的好豆子都从灰里拣出来放到了盘子里面，这次只用半个小时就拣完了。鸟雀们飞去之后，灰姑娘端着盘子去找继母，怀着极其兴奋的心情，以为自己可以去参加舞会了。但继母却说道：“算了！你别再白费劲了，你是不能去的。你没有礼服，不会跳舞，你只会给我们丢脸。”说完他们夫妻与她自己的两个女儿出发参加宴会去了。 现在，家里的人都走了，只留下灰姑娘孤伶伶地一个人悲伤地坐在榛树下哭泣："榛树啊！请你帮帮我，请你摇一摇，为我抖落金银礼服一整套。” 她的朋友小鸟从树上飞出来，为她带了一套金银制成的礼服和一双光亮的丝制舞鞋。收拾打扮、穿上礼服之后，灰姑娘在她两个姐妹之后来到了舞厅。穿上豪华的礼服之后，她看起来是如此高雅、漂亮、美丽动人极了。她们都认不出她，以为她一定是一位陌生的公主，根本就没有想到她就是灰姑娘，她们以为灰姑娘仍老老实实地待在家中的灰堆里呢。 王子看到她，很快向她走来，伸出手挽着她，请她跳起舞来。他再也不和其他姑娘跳舞了，他的手始终不肯放开她。每当有人来请她跳舞时，王子总是说：“这位女士在与我跳舞。”他们一起跳到很晚，她才想起要回家去了。王子想知道这位美丽的姑娘到底住在哪里，所以说道：“我送你回家去吧。”灰姑娘表面上同意了，但却趁他不注意时，悄悄地溜走，拔腿向家里跑去。王子在后面紧追不舍，她只好跳进鸽子房并把门关上。王子等在外面不肯离去，一直到她父亲回家时，王子才上前告诉他，说那位他在舞会上遇到的不知道姓名的姑娘藏进了这间鸽子房。当他们砸开鸽子房门时，里面却已空无一人，他只好失望地回宫去了。父母进屋子时，灰姑娘已经身穿邋遢的衣服躺在灰堆边上了，就像她一直躺在那儿似地，昏暗的小油灯在烟囱柱上的墙洞里摇晃着。实际上，灰姑娘刚才很快穿过鸽子房来到榛树前脱下了漂亮的礼服，将它们放回树上，让小鸟把它们带走，自己则回到屋里坐到了灰堆上，穿上了她那灰色的外套。 第二天，当舞会又要开始时，她的爸爸、继母和两个姐妹都去了。灰姑娘来到树下说："榛树啊！请你帮帮我，请你摇一摇，为我抖落金银礼服一整套。” 那只小鸟来了，它带来了一套比她前一天穿的那套更加漂亮的礼服。当她来到舞会大厅时，她的美丽使所有的人惊讶不已。一直在等待她到来的王子立即上前挽着她的手，请她跳起舞来。每当有人要请她跳舞时，他总是和前一天一样说：“这位女士在与我跳舞。”到了半夜她要回家去的时候，王子也和前一天一样跟着她，以为这样可以看到她进了哪一幢房子。但她还是甩掉了他，并立即跳进了她父亲房子后面的花园里。花园里有一棵很漂亮的大梨树，树上结满了成熟的梨。灰姑娘不知道自己该藏在什么地方，只好爬到了树上。王子没有看到她，他不知道她去了哪儿，只好又一直等到她父亲回来，才走上前对他说：“那个与我跳舞的不知姓名的姑娘溜走了，我认为她肯定是跳上梨树去了。”父亲暗想：“难道是灰姑娘吗？”于是，他要人去拿来一柄斧子，把树砍倒了一看，树上根本没有人。当父亲和继母到厨房来看时，灰姑娘和平时一样正躺在灰烬里。原来她跳上梨树后，又从树的另一边溜下来，脱下漂亮的礼服，让榛树上的小鸟带了回去，然后又穿上了她自己的灰色小外套。 第三天，当她父亲、继母和两个姐妹走了以后，她又来到花园里说道："榛树啊！请你帮帮我，请你摇一摇，为我抖落金银礼服一整套。” 她善良的朋友又带来了一套比第二天那套更加漂亮的礼服和一双纯金编制的舞鞋。当她赶到舞会现场时，大家都被她那无法用语言表达的美给惊呆了。王子只与她一个人跳舞，每当有其他人请她跳舞时，他总是说：“这位女士是我的舞伴。”当午夜快要来临时，她要回家了，王子又要送她回去，并暗暗说道：“这次我可不能让她跑掉了。”然而，灰姑娘还是设法从他身边溜走了。由于走得过于匆忙，她竟把左脚的金舞鞋失落在楼梯上了。 王子将舞鞋拾起，第二天来到他的国王父亲面前说：“我要娶正好能穿上这只金舞鞋的姑娘作我的妻子。”灰姑娘的两个姐妹听到这个消息后非常高兴，因为她们都有一双很漂亮的脚，她们认为自己穿上那只舞鞋是毫无疑问的。姐姐们由她妈妈陪着先到房子里去试穿那只舞鞋，可她的大脚趾却穿不进去，那只鞋对她来说太小了。于是她妈妈拿给她一把刀说：“没关系，把大脚趾切掉！只要你当上了王后，还在乎这脚趾头干嘛，你想到哪儿去根本就不需要用脚了。”大女儿听了，觉得有道理，这傻姑娘忍着痛苦切掉了自己的大脚趾，勉强穿在脚上来到王子面前。王子看她穿好了鞋子，就把她当成了新娘，与她并排骑在马上，把她带走了。 但在他们出门回王宫的路上，经过后花园灰姑娘栽的那棵榛树时，停在树枝上的一只小鸽子唱道："再回去！再回去！快看那只鞋！鞋太小，不是为她做的！王子！王子！再找你的新娘吧，坐在你身边的不是你的新娘！” 王子听见后，下马盯着她的脚看，发现鲜血正从鞋子里流出来，他知道自己被欺骗了，马上掉转马头，把假新娘带回她的家里说道：“这不是真新娘，让另一个妹妹来试试这只鞋子吧。”于是妹妹试着把鞋穿在脚上，脚前面进去了，可脚后跟太大了，就是穿不进去。她妈妈让她削去脚后跟穿进去，然后拉着她来到王子面前。王子看她穿好了鞋子，就把她当做新娘扶上马，并肩坐在一起离去了。 但当他们经过榛树时，小鸽子仍栖息在树枝头上，它唱道："再回去！再回去！快看那只鞋！ 鞋太小，不是为她做的！王子！王子！再找你的新娘吧，坐在你身边的不是你的新娘！” 王子低头一看，发现血正从舞鞋里流出来，连她的白色长袜也浸红了，他拨转马头，同样把她送了回去，对她的父亲说：”这不是真新娘，你还有女儿吗？“父亲回答说：“没有了，只有我前妻生的一个叫灰姑娘的小邋遢女儿，她不可能是新娘的。”然而，王子一定要他把她带来试一试。灰姑娘先把脸和手洗干净，然后走进来很有教养地向王子屈膝行礼。王子把舞鞋拿给她穿，鞋子穿在她脚上就像是专门为她做的一样。他走上前仔细看清楚她的脸后，认出了她，马上兴奋的说道：“这才是我真正的新娘。”继母和她的两个姐妹大吃一惊，当王子把灰姑娘扶上马时，她们气得脸都发白了，眼睁睁地看着王子把她带走了。他们来到榛树边时，小白鸽唱道："回家吧！回家吧！快看那只鞋！王妃！这是为你做的鞋！王子！王子！快带新娘回家去，坐在你身边的才是真正的新娘。” 鸽子唱完之后，飞上前来，停在了灰姑娘的右肩上。他们一起向王宫走去。
