39. THE ANT AND THE DOVEBy Kate StonhamIt was another hot, dry day in the forest…Ant had been wandering over crin-kly, dry leaves for days in search of a nice, cool drink…‘All I need is a drop of rain falling from a leaf – or a tiny pool of dew on a flower petal – or even a mud-dy puddle…’ he thought. But it was so hot all the dew and puddles in the forest had dried up.‘I’m so thirsty, that I have no choice,’ Ant sighed at last. ‘I shall have to go in search of the R oaring R iver.’Ant had been warned about theR oaring R iver. ‘It roars and it swirls and if you go too close, it will sweep you away,’ a wise owl had told him.But Ant was desperate. ‘The river has more drops of water than all the rain clouds in the world,’ hethought. ‘It’s my only hope of staying alive.’So Ant headed off. He ploddedon and on through the trees, until finally, he heard rushing water ahead…Before him lay the R oaring R iver – as vast as a sea, or so it seemed to tiny Ant. The fast flowing waters looked frightening – but Ant was too thirsty to feel fear…He clambered down the river bank and bent his weary head into the water to drink it up.The cool, sparkling water was so refreshing that Ant didn’t heara roaring wave coming towards him…Suddenly, he was flat on his back - his little legs in the air, being swept away by the water! ‘Help!’ he cried. ‘Someone save me, please!’All of a sudden, a green leaf dropped onto the water by his side with a plop. ‘Quick, climb on!’ cried a gentle cooing voice.1Ant didn’t have time to see who the voice belonged to. He just did what it told him…then he opened his eyes and looked up.Perching on the branch of a tree above was a pure white Dove.‘Stay calm, little Ant - and wait for the gentle breeze to blow the leaf to the river bank,’ she cooed.Sure enough, the leaf carried Ant to safety. He looked up – but the Dove had disappeared. ‘I can’t leave without thanking her,’ he thought. ‘So I shall wait until she returns.’Ant waited and waited. Then, just as he was about to fall asleep, he heard strange noises. They were coming closer and closer…Two men emerged from the forest and stopped under the Dove’s tree. One was carrying a bucket – the other a large, golden cage. ‘Thisis the tree – the home of the most beautiful dove in the land,’ said the man with the cage. ‘I hope that glue in your bucket is sticky enough…’‘Indeed it is,’ said the second as he covered the branch with a thick, green paste. ‘When the Dove lands, its feet will stick to the branch – then we can put it in the cage and take it to the King. All we have to do is hide and wait…’Ant was horrified. ‘I can’t let this happen!’ he thought. ‘But what can a tiny creature like me do against two such giants of men?’Ant looked up as he heard the flap-ping of wings. The Dove had re-turned and was about to land on the sticky branch…! ‘If I’m goingto act, I must use the only weapon I have…’ thought Ant. ‘And I must do it RIGHT NOW!’So he jumped onto the men’s feet – and bit as hard as he could…time and time again…‘Yow!!!’ they cried out in pain and took to their heels through the for-est.‘Thank you for saving me from a life in a cage,’ cooed the Dove to Ant.‘And thank you for saving me from the giant wave,’ replied Ant.2。

As it was struggling, a dove saw the ant's predicament and kindly offered to help. The dove carried the crumb in its beak and dropped it right in front of the ant's nest.Not long after, a hunter was about to shoot the dove with his bow and arrow. The ant, witnessing the danger, quicklybit the hunter's leg. The hunter missed his shot, and thedove flew away safely. This story teaches us the importanceof kindness and the unexpected ways in which our good deeds can be repaid.二、The Hare and the TortoiseOne day, the Hare challenged the Tortoise to a race, confident that he would win easily due to his speed. The Tortoise accepted the challenge, and the race began. The Hare, running swiftly, soon left the Tortoise far behind. Seeingthe distance between them, the Hare decided to take a nap, thinking he had plenty of time to rest before the Tortoise caught up.However, the Tortoise continued at a steady pace, never giving up. When the Hare finally woke up, he was shocked to see the Tortoise crossing the finish line. This story reminds us that slow and steady wins the race, and overconfidence can lead to unexpected defeat.三、The Boy Who Cried WolfThere was a shepherd boy who lived in a small village. One day, he thought it would be fun to trick the villagers crying "Wolf!" when there was no wolf. The villagers rushed to help, but they found it was a joke and went back home.The boy repeated his trick several times, and each time, the villagers fell for it. However, when a real wolf appeared and the boy cried for help, the villagers didn't believe him. They thought it was another trick, and no one came to save the boy or his flock. This story teaches us the importance of honesty and the consequences of lying.四、The Lion and the MouseIn a dense forest, a lion was resting under a tree when a tiny mouse scurried past and woke him up. Annoyed, the lion caught the mouse and was about to eat it. The mouse, trembling with fear, pleaded for its life, promising to repay the lion one day if he spared it.The lion laughed at the idea of a small mouse helping him and let it go. Weeks later, the lion got trapped in ahunter's net. hearing the lion's roars, the mouse rushed to help. With its sharp teeth, the mouse chewed through the ropes and set the lion free. The lion was grateful and realized that even the smallest creature can make a significant difference. This story illustrates that no one should be underestimated, as everyone has their unique strengths.五、The Fox and the GrapesA fox was walking through the vineyards when it spotted a bunch of ripe grapes hanging high above. The fox tried Jumping to reach them, but they were too high. It tried climbing the tree, but the grapes were still out of reach. After several attempts, the fox gave up and walked away, saying, "Those grapes are probably sour anyway."This story, known as "sour grapes," reminds us of the tendency to disparage something we cannot have. It serves as a lesson in accepting our limitations and not letting disappointment turn into bitterness.六、The Crow and the PitcherA crow was thirsty and found a pitcher with a little water at the bottom, but the water was too low for the crow to reach with its beak. Instead of giving up, the crow started dropping pebbles into the pitcher. With each pebble,the water level rose until the crow could finally drink the water.This story of the crow's ingenuity teaches us the valueof perseverance and resourcefulness. When faced with a problem, sometimes thinking outside the box can lead to a solution.七、ConclusionThese English short stories are not only engaging for audiences of all ages but also carry profound life lessons. They can be used in speeches to illustrate points, add colorto presentations, or simply entertain. Each story, with its unique characters and situations, serves as a timeless reminder of the human condition and the values we hold dear.八、The Ugly DucklingIn a barnyard, a mother duck hatched a brood of ducklings, all of them with smooth, yellow feathers, except for one.This duckling was plump and had gray, woolly feathers that made him look very different from his siblings. The other animals teased him for his appearance, and even his ownfamily treated him with disdain. Sad and lonely, the ugly duckling left the barnyard in search of a place where he belonged.九、The Golden GooseThis story is a powerful reminder of the dangers of greed and the importance of contentment. It告诫 us to value what we have and not to be tempted shortsighted gains that couldlead to greater losses.十、The Starfish ThrowerAn old man was walking along the beach after a storm had scattered thousands of starfish ashore. He saw a young boy picking up starfish one one and throwing them back into the sea. The old man asked, "Why are you doing this? There are so many starfish; you can't possibly save them all."The boy replied, "It makes a difference to this one," as he threw another starfish into the water. This story underscores the importance of individual actions. Even if we can't change the whole world, we can make a significant impact on individual lives.十一、Final ThoughtsThese stories are not just simple tales; they are powerful tools for speakers to connect with their audience on an emotional level. They resonate with universal themes and can be tailored to fit various speech topics, from the importance of selfworth to the consequences of greed. When delivering a speech, incorporating such stories can leave a lasting impression and drive home the message with a warmth and relatability that cold facts alone cannot achieve.。

帮助别人,当你需要帮助的时候,你就会得到帮助h英语作文

帮助别人,当你需要帮助的时候,你就会得到帮助h英语作文

帮助别人,当你需要帮助的时候,你就会得到帮助h英语作文When it comes to the topic of help, we are frequently told that, “help others, and you will be helped when you are in need”. simple as the saying is, it implies the importance of helping others in need. What I learn from the remark, is that helping others is helping yourself.Examples can easily be found to make this point clearer. The story of the ant and the dove is the case in point. An ant slipped into the river when drinking along the river. A dove heard his cries for help and threw him a leaf, which helped the ant float back to the bank. After a few days, a hunter was raising his gun to the dove as she was building her nest. Seeing this, the ant ran quickly to bite the hunter’s leg. The dove heard the hunter’s scream and flew away.All in all, this example indicates that when we offer our help to others, we are leaving a way open for the future. Helping others is a virtue, and we should take some measures to carry forward this virtue and do others a favor. Only in this way can we build a loving and harmonious society.当谈到帮助的话题时,我们经常被告知,“帮助别人,当你需要的时候,你也会得到帮助”。

蚂蚁和鸽子读后感英语作文

蚂蚁和鸽子读后感英语作文

蚂蚁和鸽子读后感英语作文全文共3篇示例,供读者参考篇1"The Ant and the Dove" is a meaningful fable that teaches us an important lesson about the power of kindness and compassion. This short story revolves around an ant who accidentally falls into a river and is about to drown, only to be saved by a compassionate dove. This act of kindness ultimately leads to a powerful friendship between two completely different creatures.What stands out the most in this fable is the theme of reciprocity and the idea that even the smallest act of kindness can make a significant impact. The dove saves the ant out of compassion and empathy, not expecting anything in return. However, when the dove is trapped in a hunter's net and the ant sees this, it decides to help the dove in return by gnawing through the net to set it free.This story beautifully illustrates the concept of "what goes around, comes around" and highlights the importance of empathy and helping others in need. It serves as a reminder thateven the smallest act of kindness can create a ripple effect of compassion and positivity.Furthermore, "The Ant and the Dove" also emphasizes the importance of friendship and collaboration. Despite their differences in size and abilities, the ant and the dove come together to help each other in times of need. This showcases the power of unity and teamwork in overcoming challenges and obstacles.Overall, this fable serves as a gentle reminder to always be kind, compassionate, and empathetic towards others. It teaches us that no act of kindness is ever too small and that by helping others, we not only make a positive impact on their lives but also create a better and more compassionate world for ourselves. As the saying goes, "be the change you wish to see in the world", and "The Ant and the Dove" beautifully exemplifies this sentiment.篇2"The Ant and the Dove" is a classic fable that teaches us the importance of kindness and gratitude. The story follows an ant who is struggling to climb out of a stream when a dove swoops in to save him by dropping a leaf into the water. The ant is ableto climb onto the leaf and float safely to shore. Later, when the dove finds himself trapped in a hunter's net, the ant returns the favor by chewing through the net and setting the dove free.This simple yet powerful story reminds us that even the smallest acts of kindness can have a big impact. It also highlights the value of reciprocity in relationships – when we help others, they are more likely to help us in return.Reading this fable, I was struck by how the ant and the dove, two very different creatures, were able to form a bond and help each other in times of need. It made me reflect on the importance of empathy and compassion in our own lives, and how these qualities can help us build strong and meaningful connections with others.The story also made me think about the concept of karma –the idea that our actions have consequences, and that what goes around comes around. By treating others with kindness and respect, we are more likely to receive the same in return. This fable serves as a gentle reminder to always be mindful of how we interact with those around us, as our actions can have a lasting impact.In conclusion, "The Ant and the Dove" is a timeless tale that teaches us valuable lessons about the power of kindness,gratitude, and reciprocity. It serves as a reminder that no act of kindness is ever too small, and that by helping others, we can create a more compassionate and interconnected world. Let us all strive to be like the ant and the dove, supporting each other with kindness and generosity.篇3Title: Reflection on "The Ant and the Dove""The Ant and the Dove" is a fable that carries a powerful message about the importance of kindness and helping others. The story revolves around an ant that falls into a stream and is saved by a dove who helps lift it out of the water. In return, the ant later comes to the rescue of the dove when it is caught in a hunter's net.Through this simple yet profound tale, Aesop teaches us the valuable lesson that kindness begets kindness and that helping others in need is a noble and rewarding act. The ant and the dove demonstrate the power of compassion and empathy, showing that even the smallest of creatures can make a big difference in someone else's life.As I reflect on this story, I am reminded of the importance of being kind and considerate towards others. In today's fast-pacedand often self-centered world, it is easy to overlook the needs of others and focus solely on our own desires. However, "The Ant and the Dove" reminds us that we should always be willing to lend a helping hand to those in need, no matter how small our gesture may seem.Furthermore, the fable also highlights the interconnectedness of all living beings and the ripple effect that acts of kindness can have on the world around us. Just as the ant and the dove's actions had a positive impact on each other, so too can our acts of kindness inspire others to do the same.In conclusion, "The Ant and the Dove" serves as a timeless reminder of the power of kindness and the importance of helping others in need. It is a story that resonates with people of all ages and backgrounds, and one that we should all strive to embody in our daily lives. Let us take a lesson from the ant and the dove, and always be ready to lend a helping hand to those around us.。

每天一篇英语小故事1.英语小故事:The Ant and the DoveOne sunny day, an ant was busy searching for food. She walked along the path, her little feet scurrying back and forth. Suddenly, she came across a huge grain of wheat that was too heavy for her to carry alone.Determined to take it back to her nest, the ant began to push and pull the grain, but it was no use. She was simply too small and weak. Frustrated, she sat down to rest and think of a plan.Just then, a dove flew down from the sky and landed nearby. The ant quickly explained her situation to the dove, begging for help. The dove, with her strong wings, easily lifted the grain of wheat and carried it to the ant's nest.The ant was overwhelmed with gratitude and thanked the dove profusely. She promised to never forget the dove's kindness.Days passed, and one day, the dove was happily singing in a tree. Unaware, a hunter aimed his arrow at her. Just as the arrow was about to hit its target, the ant saw what was happening. She quickly ran to the hunter's foot and bit him hard. The hunter, startled by the sudden pain, let go of his arrow, andit missed the dove.The dove realized what had happened and saw the little ant standing below. She recognized the ant as her helper from before and was deeply grateful."You have saved my life," said the dove. "I will never forget your bravery and kindness."From that day on, the ant and the dove became fast friends. They taught each other about their respective worlds and supported each other in times of need.The moral of the story is that kindness and gratitude are powerful forces that can bring people together, even if they come from different worlds. And remember, even the smallest of creatures can make a big difference.2.英语小故事:The Tortoise and the HareOnce there was a hare who was very proud of his speed. He would often challenge other animals to races and always won. One day, he came across a tortoise who was slowly making his way along the path."Look at you, crawling so slowly!" said the hare, mocking the tortoise. "I bet I could race you and win easily."The tortoise, who was a peaceful creature, didn't want any trouble. But the hare's taunting was too much for him to bear."Alright, let's race," said the tortoise. "But remember, slow and steady wins the race."The hare laughed at this, thinking it was a joke. They agreed on a starting line and a finish line, and the race began.The hare took off like a flash, leaving the tortoise far behind. He soon came to a field of carrots and, unable to resist, stopped to eat. He figured he had plenty of time to catch up with the tortoise.Meanwhile, the tortoise, though slow, never stopped moving. He kept his pace and steadily made his way to the finish line.When the hare finally finished his carrots and looked up, he realized that the tortoise was nowhere in sight. He quickly resumed his race, but it was too late. The tortoise had already crossed the finish line and was waiting patiently for the hare.The hare was ashamed of his arrogance and laziness. He learned a valuable lesson: pride goes before a fall, and hard work and perseverance always pay off.From that day on, the hare became more humble and respectful of others, while the tortoise's victory taught him the importance of staying true to oneself.The moral of the story is that it's important to be humbleand not underestimate others. Hard work and perseverance, even in the face of challenges, can lead to success.。
