　Not long after an old Chinese woman came back to China from her visit to her daughter in the States, she went to a city bank to deposit the US dollars her daughter gave her At the bank counter, the clerk checked each note carefully to see if the money was real It made the old lady out of patience

　At last she could not hold any more, uttering "Trust me, Sir, and trust the money They are real US dollars They are directly from America"

　它们是从美国直接带来的

　一位中国老妇人在美国看望女儿回来不久，到一家市银行存女儿送给她的美元。在银行柜台，银行职员认真检查了每一张钞票，看是否有假。

　这种做法让老妇人很不耐烦，最后实在忍耐不住说：“相信我，先生，也请你相信这些钞票。这都是真正的美元，它们是从美国直接带来的。”

篇2：英语故事演讲稿3分钟

　She kindled a third match Again shot up the flame; and now she was sitting under a most beautiful Christmas tree ,far larger, and far more prettily decked out, than the one she had seen last Christmas eve through the glass doors of the rich merchant's house Hundreds of wax-tapers lighted up the green branches, and tiny painted figures, such as she had seen in the shop-windows, looked down from the tree upon her The child stretched out her hands towards them in delight, and in that moment the lights of the match warm quenched; still, however, the Christmas candles burned higher and higher， she beheld them beaming like stars in heaven; one of them fell, the lights streaming behind it like a long, fiery tail

　“Now some one is dying,” said the little girl, softly, for she had been told by her old grandmother， the only person who had ever been kind to her, and who was now dead that whenever a star falls an immortal spirit returns to the God who gave it

　She struck yet another match against the wall; it flamed up, and surrounded by its light, appeared before her that same dear grandmother, gentle and loving as always, but bright and happy as she had never looked during her lifetime

　她擦着了第三根火柴，又冒出了火焰。现在她觉得正坐在非常美丽的圣诞树下面，比上次圣诞节透过那富商家的玻璃门看到的那株还要大、还要美。这株树的绿枝上点燃着许许多多的'蜡烛，颜色瑰丽的图画，就象橱窗里挂着的那些一样漂亮，仿佛在向她眨眼。小姑娘把两只手伸过去，火柴又熄灭了。然而圣诞树上的烛光越升越高。她看到它们变成了明亮的星星，有一颗落下来，在天上划出一道长长的火丝。

　“现在又有一个什么人死了。”小姑娘说。因为她的老祖母——一个唯一待她好的人，现在已经死了，曾经告诉过她，天上落下一颗星，地上就有一个灵魂回到曾赋于他生命的上帝那里去。

　她在墙上又擦了一根火柴，火光把四周照亮了。在亮光里，亲爱的和生前一样的祖母出现了。她依然是那么的慈爱和温和，然而那快活和幸福的样子却是她生前从未有过的

篇3：英语故事演讲稿3分钟

　BUYING A HAT

　A lady went to a hat shop to buy a hat As she was very fussy, it took her a long time to pick on one Already at the end of his patience the salesman was afraid that she might change her mind again so he tried to flatter her: "An excellent choice, madam You look at least ten years younger with this hat on!" To his dismay, the lady took off her hat at once and said: "I don't want a hat that makes me look ten years older as soon as I take it off Show me some more hats!"

　买帽子

　一位妇女到一家帽子店买帽子。她很挑剔，用了很长时间才选好了一顶。已经忍耐到极限的售货员害怕她再改变主意，便恭维她："你做了极好的选择，夫人。你戴上这顶帽子看上去起码年轻十岁!"但令他沮丧的是，这位女士马上摘下了她的帽子说："我不想要一顶摘下来便使我立刻显得老十岁的帽子。多拿一些帽子给我看看!

自我意识

The man who is aware of himself is henceforth independent; and he is never bored, and life is only too short, and he is steeped through and through with profound yet temperate happiness He alone lives, while other people, slaves of ceremony, let life slip past time in a kind of dream Once conform, once do what other people do finer than they do it, and a lethargy steals over all the finer nerves and faculties of the soul, He bees all outer show and inward emptiness; ll, callous, and indifferent

凡是意识到自我的人从今往后才是独立的；他永远不知疲倦，他明白生命苦短，

所以完全沉浸于深深的而又适度的幸福之中。他独立生活，而别人是繁文缛节的奴隶，在醉生梦死之中听从生命悄然流逝。一旦循规蹈矩，一旦人为亦为，呆滞就笼罩着灵魂中一切灵敏的神经和官能。灵魂变得徒有其表，其中空空；迟钝，木然、冷漠。

Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed the mouse She began to hit the cat The cat said, "Do not hit your old servant I have worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am too old Do not be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young"

老猫

一位老妇有只猫，这只猫很老，它跑不快了，也咬不了东西，因为它年纪太大了。一天，老猫发现一只老鼠，它跳过去抓这只老鼠，然而，它咬不住这只老鼠。因此，老鼠从它的嘴边溜掉了，因为老猫咬不了它。

于是，老妇很生气，因为老猫没有把老鼠咬死。她开始打这只猫，猫说：“不要打你的老仆人，我已经为你服务了很多年，而且还愿意为你效劳，但是，我实在太老了，对年纪大的不要这么无情。要记住老年人在年青时所做过的有益的事情。”

狗和影子（The Dog and the Shadow）

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。

The Fox and the Grapes

One hot summer's day a Fox was strolling through an orchard till he came to a bunch of Grapes just ripening on a vine which had been trained over a lofty branch "Just the thing to quench my thirst," quoth he Drawing back a few paces, he took a run and a jump, and just missed the bunch Turning round again with a One, Two, Three, he jumped up, but with no greater success Again and again he tried after the tempting morsel, but at last had to give it up, and walked away with his nose in the air, saying: "I am sure they are sour"

关于五年级英语故事：Black Friday

The day after Thanksgiving has bee America’s wildest shopping day Closed all day on Thursday, chain stores all across the nation open early on Friday Some stores open at 12:01 Friday morning, while others open at 4 am Some “sleepyhead” stores, like Target this year, don’t open their doors on Friday until 6 am From Friday to the day before Christmas, this is the season when businesses make as much as 25 percent of their annual revenue This season puts many businesses “in the black”—that is, into profitability—for the year

Reporters from local TV stations interview people who camp out in front of stores a day or two before the doors open on Friday These people patiently wait in line to get products that are discounted 50 percent or more

“Oh, we have fun,” said one camper “We bring games to play, we watch TV and order lots of pizza, and we meet interesting people And, most important of all, we save big bucks!” The catch, of course, is that only a very all number of products are available at the largest discounts Regardless, each store has plenty of other items that are reduced from 10 to 50 percent—saving shoppers from $10 to $400 per item—to entice Americans to shop

Not all Americans appreciate this frenzy of shopping Reverend William Graham, pastor of the Church of the Risen Jesus, wants to rename Black Friday “We want to call it Remember Jesus Friday People should start the season with the right attitude Christmastime has bee a Season of Shopping We want to make it a Season of Giving And we don’t mean giving IPods, DVDs, flat screen TVs, and other crap We mean giving your back, your mind, and your hands Help an old lady clean up her house Teach a kid how to read Visit sick people in the hospital or in nursing homes Pick up the trash in your neighborhood Give blood to the Red Cross Do volunteer work for charities Celebrate Christmas by remembering Jesus and forgetting Santa Claus”

关于五年级英语故事：Who Needs School

Two years after it was appointed by the governor, a panel has delivered its report on education in California One of its findings is that half of the students who reach the ninth grade will never graduate There were about 6 million students in California’s K-12 grades in the spring of 2006

The report focused on problems with the education system; it did not offer any solutions Solutions might be offered in the future, if the governor decides to appoint another panel Meanwhile, thousands of kids 15 to 18 years old will be dropping out of school every year Without a high school diploma, most of these kids are doomed to a lifetime of part-time work or full-time jobs that offer no security, no benefits, and no opportunity for advancement And the cities that these kids live in will see an increase in loitering, homelessness, and crime

As usual, the taxpayer is going to pay for the failures of the government He is going to be asked to approve bonds that will build yet more schools, more prisons, and more housing for the homeless These bonds, unfortunately, are like using band-aids when stitches or tourniquets are needed

The dropouts do not see a bleak future for themselves In the report, one student was asked why he had dropped out of the tenth grade “School was boring,” he said “I got a life to live There’s women, parties, fast cars, and easy money on the street, if you know where to find it And if things ever go south, all I gotta do is apply for welfare They’ll put me up in an apartment, and give me food stamps and free medical care Why do I need an education or a stupid job”

关于五年级英语故事：JFK Assassinate

Every November 22, people worldwide remember and ponder the assassination in 1963 of President John F Kennedy He was sitting in the back seat of a convertible the top was down when bullets fired from a rifle tore into him and a fellow passenger

The assassination was caught on 8mm film by Abraham Zapruder Digital enhancement of that famous film shows part of Kennedy’s skull getting blown off JFK was barely alive as the convertible sped to the nearest hospital; he died shortly after arriving there The damage to his brain was so great that even today’s medical techniques couldn’t have saved JFK

Conspiracy theories have persisted since the time of the assassination: the Mafia did it, the Teamsters did it, the CIA/FBI/Secret Service did it, Congress did it, the Federal Reserve did it, LBJ the vice president did it, the munists did it, the Cubans who hated Castro did it, and the two guys behind the grassy knoll did it

Conspiracy theorists do not believe that a lone gunman did it The lone gunman was Lee Harvey Oswald Oswald didn’t get to say much in his defense except, “I’m a patsy,” implying that he knew who really did it Two days after Oswald shot Kennedy, Jack Ruby put a fatal bullet into Oswald

The Warren mission conducted the federal government’s official investigation of JFK’s assassination Its 27-volume report said that Oswald, an ex-Marine, acted alone in shooting JFK from a sixth floor window of a book storage building But to this day, and probably far into the future, many people dispute this “lone gunman” theory They believe JFK’s death was a result of a conspiracy by one or more groups of people who felt threatened or deserted by JFK The fact that Oswald was murdered while acpanied by a dozen Dallas policemen only strengthens the suspicions of the conspiracy theorists The Warren report, they say, is merely a government whitewash of the “true” facts

关于五年级英语故事：Don’t Top Off the Tanks

Alabama Airlines has notified its pilots to stop topping off their fuel tanks Alarmed, pilot Buck Rogers sent a copy of the memo to Time Magazine, which investigated the matter It discovered that AA was reacting to a 50-percent increase in fuel prices in the last year alone The memo warned pilots to put only the amount of fuel into the plane that was necessary to reach the destination

The memo reminded pilots that their primary responsibility was to ensure that AA's profits increased every quarter Topping off the tanks resulted in extra fueling time and extra weight The extra time and weight were reducing pany profits The memo concluded with these instructions: turn off the engines when stuck in long lines on the runways; if there is a strong tailwind, turn off all the engines and glide; and, wherever it is available, use "economy" jet fuel

Pilots immediately plained, saying that such a policy put their lives and the public’s lives at great risk Yielding to their plaints, AA allowed pilots to put in an extra ten gallons of fuel

Even with the extra ten gallons, Rogers had two near disasters The first time, his plane ran out of fuel just as the wheels touched the runway His plane had to be towed to the terminal Rogers received a congratulatory phone call from AA's president! The second time, Rogers had to land his plane on a freeway, still under construction, 10 miles short of the Atlanta runway This time the president told him he was making AA look bad He told Rogers to save fuel AND land at the airport

“People have no idea how little AA cares about their safety,” Rogers said “Saving fuel is more important to management than saving lives”
