2.一个国王的爱情故事

一个国王的爱情故事1 一个孤独的孩子爱德华王子出生于1894年。

他的父亲乔治五世国王身材高大,性情冷漠。

他不喜欢孩子。

“爱德华为什么总是说个不停?”有一次,他说,“这孩子真闹人!”他的母亲玛丽王后也这么想。

“爱德华高兴与否并不重要,”她说,“小孩子一定要沉静而坚强。

”他们一家住在白金汉宫。

这座宫殿有600个房间。

其中有8个厨房,19间浴室,24个卫生间,11个餐厅,17间卧室和21间起居室。

有一次,爱德华讲了一个关于这座房子的故事:白金汉宫非常大,人们有时会迷路。

一天晚上,我和我的父母亲坐在餐厅里等着吃晚饭。

我们等呀等呀,但饭菜迟迟没有送上来。

等了20分钟,我父亲火了。

他起身去厨房。

“厨师呢?”他喊道,“我的晚餐在哪儿?”“可是,陛下,”厨师说,“您的晚餐15分钟之前就送走了。

难道还没有送到吗?”“没有,”我父亲高声叫道,“我饿坏了。

”国王离开厨房,开始去找晚餐。

10分钟后,他看见一个女佣正端着3盘子肉和土豆。

“你是怎么回事?”我父亲问,“你为什么不把晚餐给我们端来?”“对不起,陛下,”女佣回答道,“这儿有很多餐厅。

我记不起应该进哪一间。

但要是您能回到餐桌旁去,陛下,这次我会跟着您找到该去的餐厅。

”爱德华没有和其他孩子一起去学校上学。

他待在白金汉宫,那儿有他的专用教室。

爱德华这样形容他的课程:我的老师汉塞尔先生人很瘦。

他从来不笑,鼻子红红的。

我们有很多书,但都枯燥乏味。

书里全是字,一幅画儿也没有。

有时读着读着我会停下来,往窗外看。

汉塞尔先生非常生气。

他拿起一根小棒儿打我的胳膊。

“别往窗外看,小男孩,”他叫道。

“看书。

”他一下又一下地打我,打得我胳膊都红了。

每到星期五,老师都把我带到父亲的房间里。

“汉塞尔先生,这个星期我的儿子学了些什么?”国王问。

回答总是这样的:“恐怕没学多少,陛下。

爱德华不喜欢上课。

我讲什么他从来不听。

”汉塞尔退出房间后,我父亲便对我发火。

“孩子,你怎么了?”他说,“你是不是脑子笨?你为什么学不会任何东西?”“可是那些课程太没意思了,陛下,”我回答,“汉塞尔先生还打我。

国王童话故事的作文英语

国王童话故事的作文英语

Once upon a time, in a land filled with lush forests and sparkling rivers, there lived a king who was known for his wisdom and kindness. This king, named King Eldar, ruled over his people with a heart full of compassion and a mind filled with strategic brilliance. His kingdom was prosperous, and the people were content, but there was one thing that made the kings heart heavy: he had no heir to the throne.As the years passed, King Eldar grew increasingly concerned about the future of his kingdom. He knew that without a successor, the stability and peace that his people enjoyed could be jeopardized. So, he decided to embark on a journey to find a worthy successor, someone who would carry on his legacy and continue to lead the kingdom with wisdom and kindness.The kings journey took him through many lands, where he encountered various individuals with different talents and virtues. He met a brave knight who had saved a village from a ferocious dragon, a wise scholar who had dedicated his life to the pursuit of knowledge, and a kindhearted farmer who shared his harvest with the less fortunate. Each of these individuals had qualities that King Eldar admired, but none seemed to possess the perfect combination of attributes needed to rule a kingdom.One day, as King Eldar was traveling through a dense forest, he stumbled upon a small village that was suffering from a severe drought. The villagers were desperate, and their crops were withering away. The king, moved by their plight, decided to help them. He used his knowledge of the land and the weather to devise a plan to divert water from a nearby river to irrigate the fields.As the king worked alongside the villagers, he noticed a young boy named Liam, who was tirelessly helping his fellow villagers. Liam was not the strongest or the most skilled, but he had a heart full of compassion and a determination that was unmatched. He worked from dawn till dusk, never complaining or seeking recognition for his efforts.King Eldar was impressed by Liams selflessness and dedication. He spent time talking to the boy, learning about his dreams and aspirations. Liam spoke of his desire to help his people and make the world a better place. The king saw in Liam the qualities that he had been searching for in a successor: kindness, wisdom, and a deep love for his people.As the weeks passed, the king and Liam grew close, and the village began to thrive once again. The fields were lush and green, and the villagers were filled with hope and gratitude. King Eldar knew that he had found the one he had been seeking. He asked Liam if he would be willing to become his apprentice and learn the ways of a king.Liam, who had never dreamed of such an honor, was both excited and nervous. He accepted the kings offer and began his journey to become a ruler. Under King Eldars guidance, Liam learned about the complexities of governance, the importance of diplomacy, and the value of making difficult decisions for the greater good.Years went by, and Liam grew into a wise and compassionate leader. When the time came for King Eldar to step down, he knew that his kingdom wasin good hands. Liam ascended to the throne, and he ruled with the same kindness and wisdom that had endeared him to the people.The kingdom continued to prosper under Liams rule, and the people lived in peace and harmony. The story of King Eldar and his successor became a legend, passed down through generations, inspiring future leaders to rule with a heart full of compassion and a mind full of wisdom.And so, the legacy of King Eldar lived on, not just in the prosperity of his kingdom, but in the hearts of those who believed in the power of kindness and the importance of selflessness. The tale of the king and his successor served as a reminder that true leadership comes not from power or wealth, but from the ability to empathize, to understand, and to care for the wellbeing of others.。

走完长满了青苔的石板路,跨过一丛歪歪斜斜的篱笆,推开那扇吱呀作响的板门,有一扇窗镶嵌在古老的青砖砌成的墙上,窗纸早已荡然无存,只剩下横横竖竖的窗格,糸满了长长短短的红丝绳,红丝绳在风中无助地摇曳,像是谁在哀怨地诉说,又像是吹不散的淡淡哀愁特点叠字,比喻排比给出了将要叙述的故事的发生环境,并埋下悬念,吸引读者.适合有情节的语言比较优美的散文.2 第一次见到这本书是在几年前,那时候正在上高中,年少轻狂不识人间愁苦为何物,草草翻过几页,也许是青春期的判逆吧,那时的我对那些被大肆吹捧的东西不屑一顾,因而虽然躲过许多糟粕的烦人苦,也与许多精华失之交臂,再加上这样一部深沉的作品,自然十分含蓄蕴藉,情节的设置上也没有武侠小说或短篇小说那样紧张而迂回,抱着这些偏见,失去了深读的机会,再一次读它是在一年冬天,窗外静静地飘着雪花,远方有一缕若隐若无的琴声,像在讲述一个缠绵悱恻的故事,我独坐窗前,与书中的人物默默的交流着心语,为他们的欢乐而欢笑. 为他们的痛苦而悲伤,大雁早已了无踪影,窗前黄叶被白雪掩埋,这时的我已稍稍懂得一点欣赏文字之美,在慢慢咀嚼那些如泣如诉的语言中,在静静地感受那些细腻悠长的笔调时,眼产前时时会出现几个鲜活丰满,栩栩如生的人物,但在那时我依然把它看作是一部动人的情感小说,只是写得是少数民族而已,而今重读掩卷沉思窗外秋高气爽.风在远方呼啸,但在这里只有平静的呼吸与心跳,才明白在这荡气回肠的故事之后,作者想让我们知道的,绝不仅仅是一部催人泪下的悲剧,她更想让我们明白一些人生的道理,譬如得与失,爱与恨生与死而所有的这些,都如同一道道坚实的门,隔开了两个完全不同的世界,在你的世界中体会不到我心的冰冷.在我的世界中无法触摸你笑的灿烂,然然而我们却近在咫尺,咫尺如天涯,特点文字优美,有哲理让人不知不觉融入其中适合读后感,观后感感想等等.稍加修改后即为一篇优美的文章.3 往事可以怀念,但不应该再悲伤,SUNNY曾这样对我说过,她还说我们都生活在轮回中,所有未完成的故事.可以来世再续,她还说午夜的星空很美,星空下是另一个世界,是一个比白天更加喧嚣的世界,她还说也许一切都是前生注定的吧,忘记的和没有忘记的,我静静地回忆着,仿佛SUNNY在我耳边低语,一些强烈的光线猛地穿越层层夜幕,直奔另一个未知的空间,我静静地回忆.毫不停息往事奔腾咆哮,时而却又沉默无声,黑暗真是一个神奇的东西,可以让你回到多年以前,我静静地回忆着,SUNNY她的笑她的泪她的一切我们的一切,特点用人物的语言开头,比较自然不做作.但是其中人物描述要丰满一点即职.合适回忆录,爱情故事随想等.结尾(与上述三个开头相对应) 1 岁月无情,我想时间终会慢慢蚀去一个人的记忆,淡去一个人的思念.抚去一个人的伤痕,也许红窗在生命的最后,早已忘却了丈夫的模样,甚至也已忘却了她恪守一生的初衷,但是我相信,她平凡而短暂的一生,并不是为着追求繁华或优厚的物质享受,更不是为着留下什么让人赞颂的名声,她只是向往和平宁静的生活.只是向往平平常常却最真挚的爱情罢了,我更相信红窗已不仅仅是一个人的名字,更不仅仅是一扇窗的名字了,它是一份顽强与执著的象征,是一个平凡的乡间女子对于爱情的坚贞信仰,红丝绳也不仅仅是红丝绳,那是她用自己质朴的心,将长长的思念抽成的丝,织成的网没有惊天动地,没有海誓山盟,她甚至没有说过天长地久,也没有看到过天地合,乃敢与君绝的悲壮,只有真实的等待与久久的守候,正是如此才使得这扇古老的窗,成了一座丰碑,在爱情变得功利变得物欲的社会中.屹然不倒当秋风无情的掠过,如果子孱弱的爱情在冷风中瑟瑟发抖,就来看看红窗,听听它幽幽的低吟与哀诉,嗅嗅它原始的质朴的气息,看看红丝绳如何在风中摇曳那是红窗的灵魂,2 然而它向我们展示的却是真实的世界,真实的生活,它向我们讲述的那些关于爱恨,关于生死关于得失关于存在与消亡的东西,都是真实的道理,我们哭了但不是为了几个虚构的人物的悲欢离合,眼泪是为生命中的一道门而流的,就是那一道门,隔开了两个世界,尽管它们都是真实的,3 岁月流失.总有一些东西不会改变,譬如四季轮回,我们大概也在轮回之中吧,佛说修五百年只能同舟,修一千年才能共枕,也许是我们前生,修的还不够吧,那么我们只好在轮回中完成我们的爱情,然而有些事情注定不能改变也不能忘却,然而现在我只能痛苦地回忆,长长地思念,深深地谴责自己的愚笨,我也只能在某个寂寞的午夜,用一些无奈而伤感的文字,来祭奠那一段往事爱情故事短篇小说(三):

小学英语 英语故事(童话故事)The Prince Who Married a Frog 王子娶了一只青蛙

The Prince Who Married a Frog 王子娶了一只青蛙The Prince Who Married a FrogThere was once a king who had three sons of marriageable age In order to avoid any dispute over their choice of three brides, he said, "Aim as far as you can with the sling There where the stone falls you will get your wife"The three sons picked up their slings and shot The oldest boy sent his stone flying all the way to the roof of a bakery, so he got the baker girl The second boy released his stone, which came down on the house of a weaver The youngest son's stone landed in a ditchImmediately after the shots, each boy rushed off to his betrothed with a ring The oldest brother was met by a lovely maiden as fresh as a newly baked cake, the middle brother by a fair girl with silky hair and skin, while the youngest, after looking and looking, saw nothing but a frog in that ditchThey returned to the king to tell him about their betrothed "Now," said the king, "whoever has the best wife will inherit the kingdom Here begin the tests" He gave them each some hemp to be spun and returned within three days, to see which betrothed was the best spinnerThe sons went to their betrothed and urged them to spin their best Highly embarrassed, the youngest boy took the hemp to the rim of the ditch and called:"Frog, frog!""Who calls?""Your love who loves you not""If you love me not, never mind Later you shall, when a fine figure I cut"The frog jumped out of the water onto a leaf The king's son gave her the hemp, telling her he'd pick up the spun thread three days laterThree days later the older brothers anxiously hastened to the baker girl and the weaver girl to pick up their spun hemp The baker girl produced a beautiful piece of work; the weaver girl, who was an expert at this sort of thing, had spun hers to look like silk But how did the youngest son fare? He went to the ditch and called: "Frog, frog!""Who calls?""Your love who loves you not""If you love me not, never mind Later you shall, when a fine figure I cut"She jumped onto a leaf holding a walnut in her mouth He was somewhat embarrassed to give his father a walnut while his brothers brought spun hemp He nevertheless took heart and presented the king with the walnut The king, who had already scrutinized the handiwork of the baker and the weaver girls, cracked open the walnut as the older brothers looked on, snickering Out came cloth as fine as gossamer that continued to unroll until the throne room was covered with it "But there's no end to this cloth!" exclaimed the king No sooner were the words out of his mouth than the cloth came to an endBut the father refused to accept the idea of a frog becoming queen His favorite hunting bitch had just had three puppies, which he gave the three sons "Take themto your betrothed and go back for them a month later The one who's taken the best care of her dog will become the queen"A month later, the baker girl's dog had turned into a big, fat mastiff, having got all the bread he could eat The weaver's dog, not nearly so well supplied, was now a half-starved hound The youngest son came in with a small box The king opened it and out jumped a tiny, beribboned poodle, impeccably groomed and perfumed, that stood on its hind legs and marched and counted"No doubt about it," said the king, "my youngest son will be king, and the frog will be queen"The wedding of all three brothers was set for the same day The older brothers went for their brides in garlanded carriages drawn by four horses, and the brides climbed in, decked with feathers and jewelsThe youngest boy went to the ditch, where the frog awaited him in a carriage fashioned out of a fig leaf and drawn by four snails They set out He walked ahead while the snails followed, pulling the fig leaf with the frog upon it Every now and then he stopped for them to catch up with him, and once he even fell asleep When he awakened, a gold carriage had pulled up beside him It was drawn by two white horses, and inside on velvet upholstery, sat a maiden as dazzling as the sun and dressed in an emarald-green gown"Who are you?" asked the youngest son"I am the frog"He couldn't believe it, so the maiden opened a jewel case containing the fig leaf, the frog skin, and four snail shells "I was a princess turned into a frog, and the only chance I had of getting my human form back was for a king's son to agree to marry me the way I was"The king was overjoyed and told his two older sons, who were consumed with envy, that whoever picked the wrong wife was unworthy of the crown So the youngest boy and his bride became king and queen(Monferrato)NOTES:"The Prince Who Married a Frog" (Il principe che sposò una rana) from Comparetti, 4, Monferrato, PiedmontThe tale of the frog bride is common to all of Europe; scholars have counted 300 versions Comparing it, for instance, with Grimm, no63, or with Afanas'ev's "The Frog Prince," this variant which we can classify as distinctly Italian (since it shows up uniformly throughout the Peninsula, even if slinging to locate the bride is rather rare) stands out in its near-geometrical logic and linearityCopyright: Italian Folktales Selected and Retold by Italo Calvino,translated by George Martin,Pantheon Books, New York 1980王子娶了一只青蛙从前,有一个国王,他的三个儿子都到了娶妻的年龄了。

In the next few hours,in that small room in Geneva,the jew-ellery was sold for$50000000.But who was Wallis?And who was Edward?And why was their love story so special?Let's begin at the beginning…1 A Lonely Child'..Prince Edward was born in 1894.His father,King George V,was a tall,cold man who did not like chil-dren.'Why does Edward talk all the time?'he once said.'He's a very noisy child!'His mother,Queen Mary,agreed.'It doesn't matter if Edward is happy or unhappy,' she said.'A child must be silent and strong.' The family lived in Buckingham Palace,which had 600 rooms.There were 8 kitchens,19 bathrooms,24 toilets,11 dining rooms,17 bedrooms and 21 sitting rooms.Edward once told a story about the house :Buckingham Palace was very big,and people sometimes got lost.One night my mother,my father and I were sitting in the dining room.We were waiting for our dinner.We wait-ed and waited,but the food did not come.After twenty minutes my father was very angry.He stood up and went to the kitchen.'Where is the cook?'he shouted,and where is my food?' 'But,Sir,' the cook replied,'your dinner left the kitchen fifteen minutes ago.Hasn't it arrived yet?''No,it hasn't,'my father shouted,'and I'm hungry.'The King left the kitchen and began to look for the food.Ten minutes later he saw a woman who was carrying three plates of meat andpotatoes.'What happened to you?'my father said.'Why didn't you bring us our dinner?''..'I' m sorry,Sir,'the woman replied.'There are a lot of dining rooms.I couldn't remember where to go.But if you return to the table,Sir,this time I can follow you to the right room.'Edward did not go to school with other children.He stayed in Buckingham Palace where he had a special classroom just for him.This is how Edward described his lessons:My teacher,Mr Hansell,was a thin man.He never smiled and his nose was very red.We had lots of books but they were all very boring.They were full of words and they didn't have any pictures.Sometimes I stopped reading and looked out dow.Mr Hansell got very angry.He took a stick and hit me on the arm.'Don't look out of the window,little boy,' he shouted.'Look at the book.'He hit me many times and my arm was red.Every Friday the teacher took me to my father's room.'And what has my son learnt this week,Mr Hansell?'the King asked.And the answer was always:'Not very much I'm afraid,Sir.Edward doesn't like his lessons.He never lis-tens to what I say.''..When Mr Hansell left the room,my father was angry withme.'What's wrong with you,child?'he said.'Are you stupid?Why can't you learn anything?''But the lessons are so boring,Sir,'I replied.'And Mr Hansell hits me.''I don't understand you,Edward.You're a baby.You're so weak.You'll never be a good King.A King must be strong.Go to your room and stay there until the morning.''I spent many days alone in my room,'Edward wrote later.'I never played with other children and I didn't have any friends.I lived in the most beautiful house in England but I was always lonely and sad.I saw my mother once a day at din-ner time and I saw my father three or four times a week,but they never gave me any love.I was afraid of them and every-thing I did was wrong.'2 The Prince of Wales'..In the spring of 1911 King George called Edward into his room and said:'Next month I'll make you Prince of Wales and these are yourclothes for the ceremony.'The King opened a small cupboard and Edward started to cry.'But father,'he said,'I'm sixteen years old now.I can't wear soft shoes and a skirt.I'll look like a girl.Why can't I dress like other people?' 'Because you're different and special,'his father replied,'and one day you'll be King.'Edward cried for the next two days,but there was noth-ing he could do.And so,on 10th June 1911,the family drove to Caernar-von Castle in North Wales and the ceremony began.The King put a small gold crown on Edward's head.There was music and dancing and the crowd began to shout.The new Prince of Wales closed his eyes.'I feel terrible,' he said.'Can we go home now?''Not yet,' the King replied.'The people want to see you.Edward walked to the front of the castle and looked down at the crowd.He was shaking and his face was red.'..'Smile,Edward,'the King said.'You are happy!'A few hours later the family were driving back to Windsor.'Wasn't that a lovely day!'Queen Mary said.Edward took off his shoes and looked out of the window.'Never again,'he thought.'Never again!'3 The Royal StarAfter a year at Oxford University,Edward went to fight in the First World War.He wrote:I lived in a house with twenty-five other soldiers.At night we talked about our lives and our families.It was very inter-esting.I could speak freely to different people-rich and poor,young and old.But I also saw the blood and noise of war.One day in 1916 my driver took me to the town of Loos in Belgium.I got out of the car and walked to the top of the hill.Down below me there was heavy fighting and I felt very sad.'..An hour later I returned to my car.I'll never forget what I saw.My driver was dead.While I was away,some-body shot him in the neck.When the war finished in 1918,Edward returned to Bucking-ham Palace.One night he was talking to his father in the din-ing room.'I don't understand why countries fight,'the Prince said.'The war has finished,but nothing has changed.There are still millions of poor and hungry people.It's not right.Somebody must do something!' 'Well,'King George replied,'you can't change the world if you sit by the fire.You must travel.Meet people.Talk to them.Listen to what they say.And then,when you are King,you can make the world a better place.'And so,in 1920,Edward left England again.During the next five years he travelled 240 000 kilometres and visited 45 different countries.He saw India,Argentina,Nigeria,Mexico,New Zealand,Germany,and Japan.When he came to Toronto,in Canada,there were 500 000 people in the streets to meet him.Everywhere thousands ofpeople waited to see him—there were crowds of 190 000 in Cape Town,300 000 in Paris,500 000 in New York,and 750 000 in Melbourne.'Edward is the first royal star,'one newspaper wrote,'and he is now the most famous man in the world.In the old days princes were cold and'..bored.But Edward is different.He gets out of his car and walks down the street.Every two or three minutes he stops and speaks with the crowd.He laughs.He smiles.He shakes a thousand hands.He is a man of the people with a heart of gold.'4 The MeetingIn the autumn of 1930 Edward went to stay with his friends Lordand Lady Furness.This is how he described that weekend in a book called A King's Story:On Saturday the weather was cold and windy.It was raining heavily so we could not ride our horses.We decided to stay in the house andhave an early lunch with some of Lady Furness' friends.At one o'clock Wallis arrived with her husband.She was beautifully dressed and she smiled all the time.She spoke with Lord Furness for a few minutes,and then Lady Fur-ness brought her over to see me.'..'Sir,I would like you to meet one of my dearest and sweetest American friends,Mrs Wallis Simpson.''How do you do,Mrs Simpson,'I said.'Please come and sit down.' Lady Furness left us and we began to talk.I could see that Wallis was not felling very well.She had a bad cold and her eyes were red.'I'm afraid that our English houses aren't very warm,'I said.'We don't have American central heating here.' There was a long silence.Mrs Simpson turned her face and looked out of the window.Then she said:'You have disappointed me,Sir.' 'And why is that?'I asked.'Because everybody asks me about American central heat-ing.I thought that the Prince of Wales would talk about something more interesting.'I began to laugh.'What's the matter,Sir?'Wallis asked.'Have I said somethingwrong?''No,'I replied.'I'm laughing because you didn't lie to me.You told me the truth.''But why is that funny?Doesn't everybody do that?''One day I'll be King of England,' I replied.'And people are afraid '..of me.If I say that the sky is yellow,they say,“Yes,Sir,you are right”.If I say that Wednesday is the first day of the week,they say,“Yes,Sir,you are right”.And if I say that Scotland is bigger than Canada,they say,“Yes,Sir,you are right”.But you told me that I wasboring!You told me the truth.I like that!'There was another silence and then Wallis began to laugh.'Can I say one more thing,Sir?''Yes,Mrs Simpson,what is it?''It's your trousers,Sir.''My trousers?''Yes,Sir.They are black and your shoes are brown.'These two colours don't look right together.'I stood up and looked in the mirror.'Yes,Mrs Simp-son,you're right.I look very strange.The next time we meet,I will be betterdressed.'When lunch was ready,we walked through into the dining room.I sat at one end of the table and Wallis sat at the other end.I was watching her very carefully.I thought how beautiful her hands were.She began talking to Lady Furness and then,a few minutes later,she turned and smiled at me.I felt very happy.After lunch Wallis came over to say goodbye.'My hus-band and I '..have to leave now,Sir.We're going to another party in London.'I wanted to speak to her but I could not find the right words.I don't know why.We shook hands and Wallis walked away.I went into the next room and sat down near Lady Fur-ness.'Tell me about Mrs Simpson,'I said.'What would you like to know?'she asked.'Everything!' I said.'Then perhaps,Sir,you would like to walk in the gar-den.We can talk more freely there.'We stood up and left the house by the back door.We walked slowly through the trees,and Lady Furness told me about Wallis…5 WallisThis is how Lady Furness described Mrs Simpson's early life to Edward:Wallis was born in Baltimore.She never knew her father.He died when she was five months old.But her mother was a strong and loving'..woman,and Wallis was a happy child.When she was twenty,she married a man called Win-field Spencer.For the first few years they were happy togeth-er.But one day Winfield lost some money in the street.He was very angry.When he came home,he took a bottle of whisky from a cupbodrd and began to drink.That night he hit Wallis in the mouth.She screamed and he hit her again.There was blood on her face and she was shaking like a leaf.' Please,Winfield,'she said.'No more.But Winfield took her arm and pulled her up the stairs.'You're my prisoner,'he shouted at her,'and you're not going to leave.'Then he pushed her into the bathroom and locked the door.The next morning Wallis went back to her family.'I can't stay withhim,'she said.'I want a divorce.''Poor Wallis,'Edward said.'But what happened next,Lady Furness?''Well,'said Lady Furness,'a few months later she met a fine man called Ernest Simpson.He's quiet,but interesting.They got married and they now live in a beautiful flat in the centre of London.' 'And are they happy?'asked Edward.'..Lady Furness looked at the Prince and smiled.'I don't know,Sir,'she said.'I don' t know.'During the next two years the Prince saw Wallis once or twice a week.They had the same friends,and they often met at parties.'Mrs Simpson knew a lot about life,'Edward once said.'She loved books,food,people,and travel.She was very beautiful and her eyes were full of fire.She was friendly and easy to talk to and,after a while,I opened up my heart.We had no secrets.I told her everything.And that's how it all began.''His eyes were always sad,'Wallis said about Edward.'And sometimes he looked like a child—so young,so quiet,so weak.Hehad no real friends.Perhaps people were a little afraid of him.But he was a warm and kind man.When he talked to me,I felt my heart jump.I wanted to be alone with him,but I knew that wasn't possible.Did the Prince love me in those early days?No,I don't think so.But each time we met,we just felt closer and closer.' In June 1933 Edward gave a birthday party for Wallis,and duringthe next few months he visited the Simpson's flat in London almost every day.One evening,the Prince asked Wallis and Ernest to go skiing in'..Austria.'I'm sorry,Sir,'Mr Simpson replied.'I have to go to America on business.But perhaps Wallis and her aunt can come with you.' 'We went to Kitzbühl as friends,'Wallis wrote later,'but when we came home,we were in love.And a few months later the Prince asked me to marry him.It was just like a dream!'6 The King is Dead!Long Live the King!In January 1936 Edward went to Windsor for a few weeks.He wastired of town life and he wanted to work in his garden and ride his horses.But then,one afternoon,there was a phone call from Queen Mary.'Edward,'she said,'you must come back im-mediately.Your father is very ill and I think he's going to die.'When Edward arrived,he went straight to his father's room.He walked to the side of the bed and kissed his father's white face.The King opened his eyes and smiled.Then he took his son's hand and said:'Be a good King,Edward.And be good to your mother.' 'Yes,father,I will.''..The King closed his eyes and did not speak again.Just af-ter midnight he died.Then Queen Mary took Edward's hand and kissed it.'My child,you are now King,'she said softly.'God be with you.His three brothers came to him,one by one,and they each kissed his hand.'The King is dead.Long live the King,'they said.At one o'clock Edward left the room to telephone Wallis.“My father is dead,'he said.'I'm so sorry,Sir.''I must stay here for a while,'Edward went on.'But I'll phone you atthe weekend.Nothing will change between you and me.I love you more than ever,and you will be my Queen.''Let's not talk about that now,'Wallis replied.'You must go back to your family.''But you are my family,Wallis.You are everything to me.Goodnight.Sleep well.'When Wallis put the phone down that night,she sudden-ly felt afraid.'Edward is now King,'she thought,'but what will happen to me?''..6 国王逝世!国王万岁!1936年1月,爱德华去温莎小住几个星期。

一个国王的婚礼作文英语

一个国王的婚礼作文英语

一个国王的婚礼作文英语Once upon a time, in a kingdom far, far away, there was a grand celebration that brought joy and excitement to the hearts of all who lived there. It was the wedding of the century, a union between the benevolent King Edward and the beautiful Princess Isabella, a couple whose love story was as enchanting as the kingdom itself.The castle was adorned with the finest silks and tapestries, the colors of the royal crest—crimson and gold—draped from every corner. The courtyard was transformed into a garden of splendor, with roses of every hue in full bloom, their fragrance wafting through the air, as sweet as the promise of love.As the sun rose on the day of the wedding, the townspeople began to gather, their faces painted with the royal colors, their hearts filled with pride and happiness for their beloved king. The streets were lined with musicians, their melodies as lively as the steps of the dancers who swayed to the rhythm, their laughter echoing through the cobblestone lanes.The ceremony took place in the grand hall of the castle, a room as old as the kingdom itself. The high ceilings were inlaid with intricate frescoes depicting the history of the royal family, and the walls were adorned with the banners of the noble houses that had pledged their loyalty to the crown.Princess Isabella entered the hall on the arm of her father, the Duke of Lancaster, her gown a vision of white silk and lace, her veil as delicate as the morning mist. The king, resplendent in his royal regalia, awaited her at the foot of the altar, his eyes shining with love and admiration for his bride.The vows were exchanged amidst the soft glow of a thousand candles, their voices clear and strong, a testament to the bond that would unite them. The guests, a gathering of the most distinguished lords and ladies from across the realm, watched in awe as the couple pledged their eternal love and fidelity to one another.Following the ceremony, a feast was held in the castle's great hall. Tables groaned under the weight of delicacies from every corner of the kingdom: succulent roasts, fresh fruits, and sweet pastries that melted on the tongue. Wine flowed like a river, and the air was filled with the clinking of goblets and the sound of merriment.As the night wore on, the celebration moved to the castle's terrace, where a dance was held under the stars. The king and queen led the first dance, their steps in perfect harmony, their smiles as bright as the constellations above. The guests followed, their laughter and joy a symphony of happiness that seemed to reach the heavens themselves.The wedding of King Edward and Princess Isabella was a day that would be remembered for generations to come. It was notjust a celebration of the union of two hearts, but also a testament to the love and unity of a kingdom. And as the people of the kingdom danced under the moonlight, they knew that their king and queen would rule with wisdom, compassion, and a love that would light the way for many years to come.。

一个国王的童话作文英语

一个国王的童话作文英语

一个国王的童话作文英语Once upon a time, in a land of enchantment, there lived awise and just king named King Leonidas. His kingdom, nestled between the lush green hills and the crystal clear river, was known far and wide as the realm of peace and prosperity.King Leonidas was loved by all his subjects for his fairness and kindness. Every morning, he would don his royal blue cloak, adorned with the emblem of his kingdom, and walk among his people, listening to their concerns and sharing in their joys.One day, as the sun rose over the horizon, casting a golden glow on the kingdom, a mysterious traveler arrived at the castle gates. He was a tall man with a long white beard and eyes that sparkled with wisdom. He introduced himself as the Sorcerer of the North and requested an audience with the king.Intrigued, King Leonidas welcomed the sorcerer into histhrone room. The sorcerer presented the king with a magical seed, saying, "This seed holds the power to grant one wish. However, it must be planted with love and nurtured with patience for it to grow and fulfill its promise."The king, ever the servant of his people, decided to plantthe seed in the heart of his kingdom, where all could witness its growth. He dug a hole with his own hands, placed the seed within, and covered it with soil. Every day, he would waterthe seed and speak words of encouragement, hoping to inspire its growth.As the days turned into weeks, the seed began to sprout. It grew into a beautiful tree, its branches reaching for the sky and its roots delving deep into the earth. The tree's leaves shimmered with a thousand colors, and its fruits were said to have the most exquisite taste.The people of the kingdom marveled at the tree and flocked to see it. King Leonidas, however, knew that the tree's true power was yet to be revealed. He continued to care for the tree, showing his people that even the most powerful magic required love and patience.One fateful day, as the king sat beneath the tree's shade, a young girl approached him. She was frail and sick, her eyes filled with sadness. She told the king that her village had been struck by a terrible drought, and the crops had failed, leaving the people hungry and desperate.King Leonidas felt a deep sorrow for the girl and her people. He knew that the time had come to use the tree's magic. He climbed the tree and picked a single fruit, which glowed with a soft, ethereal light. He handed the fruit to the girl and instructed her to return to her village and share it with her people.The girl did as the king commanded, and as the fruit was shared, a miracle occurred. The skies opened, and gentle rain began to fall, ending the drought. The fields turned greenagain, and the people's spirits lifted. The kingdom was saved, and the people celebrated with joy and gratitude.King Leonidas' wish had been granted: to bring happiness and prosperity to his people. The magical tree continued to stand as a symbol of hope and a reminder that even the smallest act of kindness could have a profound impact.And so, the legend of King Leonidas and the magical tree spread throughout the land, inspiring generations to comewith the tale of a king who chose to use his power for the good of all. The kingdom flourished under his wise rule, and peace reigned in the hearts of the people, as it did in the heart of their beloved king.。

国王给王子相亲剧本

国王给王子相亲剧本

国王给王子相亲剧本以下是关于国王给王子相亲的剧本:第一场这是一个美丽的大房子:明亮的落地窗,华丽的窗帘,复古的地毯,典雅的家具,还有应有尽有的食物。

在这里,住着一对幸福的父女。

旁白:很久很久以前,有一个可爱的姑娘,她的名字叫爱莉斯,她的妈妈死了,她的爸爸很爱她。

爸爸慈爱地看着女儿:亲爱的女儿,这个礼物是给你的,你喜欢它吗?爱莉斯又惊又喜:噢!谢谢你,爸爸!爸爸亲切的抚摸着女儿的头说:我亲爱的女儿,我愿你永远快乐!爱莉斯撒娇的说:不过亲爱的爸爸,我肚子有些饿了。

爸爸哈哈的笑了笑,拍拍后脑勺说:我很抱歉,我马上给你做饭旁白:可是一天她的父亲又找了一个新妈妈,看,她的后母和她的新姐姐们来了。

后母粗鲁的推开门,重重的踏了进来,兴奋的呼唤道:海伦,珍妮,看,多么漂亮的房子啊!海伦傻傻地环顾着房间里一切,呆呆的跟着后母的后面说:对,还有许多水果,苹果啊,香蕉啊,芒果啊,还有荔枝!喔!我爱死它们了!珍妮飞奔到柜子边,一手插着腰,一边娇溺地对后妈说:妈妈,你看,还有漂亮的衣服,我喜欢这个!!爱莉斯赶忙跑到这些衣服跟前,摇着双手:噢,不行,那是我的!那是爸爸买给我的新衣服!珍妮瞟了一眼爱莉斯,鄙视的说:你是谁啊?妈妈,她是谁后母也爱理不理的瞟了一眼灰姑娘,摆了摆手说:她是你们的妹妹,没事,爱莉斯,去,快去打扫屋子给我们做饭!爱莉斯生气的回应着:为什么啊?我不是你们的仆人呀!后母两手叉腰,得意的说:嗯,哼,但是从现在起,你就是我们的仆人了!!珍妮和海伦:妈妈我喜欢她的衣服!珍妮一把抢过爱莉斯的项链,霸道地说:我喜欢她的项链!!后妈宠爱的看着她的女儿们,温柔的说:好好好,都是你们的,都是你们的,哈哈哈哈。

旁白:从那以后,爱莉斯就变成了她们的仆人,她从早到晚的干活,她没有屋子住,她没有好东西吃,也没有衣服可穿,她越来越脏,所以周围的人都叫她灰姑娘。

第二场客厅里,后母坐在椅子上,一边很享受地嗑着瓜子,一边把瓜子壳乱扔在地上。

10点了。爱德华站起身,走到窗前。夜幕中,下面街道上站了好几百人。他们唱着歌,叫着他的名字:“爱德华,爱德华,我们爱爱德华!”他们喊着,“国王万岁!爱情万岁!”
国王突然转向邱吉尔先生。“温斯顿,为什么这会发生在我身上?”他喊道,“我做错了什么?”
他坐下来,双手抱着头。屋里一片寂静,但街上的叫喊声从打开的窗户传进来。“爱德华万岁!爱情万岁!爱德华万岁!爱情万岁!”
This is what he said:
Tonight,for the first time,I can say a few words to you.Earlier today I gave the crown to my brother George.He is now your King.I will soon leave this country and travel to France.My heart is with Wallis and I cannot live without the woman I love.'
Then he turned and walked onto the ship and into the night.
9我爱的女人
几天后,邱吉尔先生来白金汉宫拜访爱德华。开始,国王沉默不语。然后他说:“温斯顿,这是我在英国的最后一个晚上了。我爱这个国家。我想做一个跟得上时代的、仁慈的国王。我想改变这个世界,但他们阻止了我。现在,我不得不离开。”
Mr Churchill came over and put his hand on the King's arm.Edward looked up.'Thank you,Winston,'he said.'You were a good friend to me.'
'Thank you,Sir.And you were a good King.'
I don't know what will happen to me.Perhaps I will never see England again.But think of me tonight when I sail across the sea.
God be with you.Long live King George!
爱德华取出一支笔,在这页纸的下部签了自己的名字。然后站起来,吻了吻弟弟的手。
“我从未期望过这种事发生,”乔治说,“这是我一生中最糟糕的一天。”
爱德华走到母亲身边。“在我吻你之前,”她说,“有些话我想说。孩子,我一直都不理解你。今天早晨你还是国王。但今晚,你就要像小偷一样逃离英国,孤零零一个人,愤愤不平,忐忑不安。你以为自己自由了,但你没有。你永远也不会自由。”
'I never wanted this to happen,'George said.'This is the worst day of my life.'
Edward walked over to his mother.'Before I kiss you,'she said,'there are some things that I want to say.I have never understood you,child.This morning you were a King.But tonight,you'll run from England like a thief.Alone.An-gry.Afraid.You think that you're free.But you're not.You cannot be free.
'Everyone needs their family.Everyone needs their home.And tonight you have lost both those things.
'I love you.I am your mother andnothing can change that.But if you marry that woman,you will break my heart.Go now.It is all very sad.'
下面就是他所说的:
今晚,我第一次有机会向你们讲几句话。今天早些时候,我把王位让给了我的弟弟乔治。现在,他是你们的国王了。我不久将离开这个国家去法国。我的心和沃利斯在一起,没有我爱的女人,我无法生活。”
我不知道我将来会怎么样。也许我再也看不到英国了。但是,今晚我跨越海峡时,请大家想着我。
愿上帝与你们同在。乔治国王万岁!
At ten o'clock the next morning the telephone rang in Edward's bedroom.
'They're ready for you now,Sir,'a voice said.
The King walked slowly down the stairs.In front of him there was an opendoor.The family were waiting for him.His mother sat near the window,dressed in black.His brothers stood beside her.'How close they are!'the King thought.
It was ten o'clock.Edward stood up and walked over to the window.In the dark streets below there were hundreds of people.They were singing and calling his name:'Edward,Edward,we love Edward!'they shouted.'Long live the King!Long live love!'
屋子中央有一张小桌子。上面放了一张纸。爱德华坐下来,读到下面的话:
我,爱德华八世,英国国王、印度国王、澳大利亚国王、新西兰国王、加拿大国王、肯尼亚国王、尼日利亚国王、缅甸国王、马来亚国王、新加坡国王,以及其他32个国家的国王,今天把王位交给我的弟弟乔治。
愿上帝与他同在,与他的臣民同在。
1936年12月10日。
Edward stopped and looked out across the open sea.There was a thin,cold smile on his face.'King?'he said.'No,I am not the King.I am just a man in love.'
Edward left Windsor Castle and got into a large black car.It was now midnight and it was just beginning to rain.
'Take me away as quickly as you can,'he said.The car moved off into the darkness and the rain.
爱德华离开温莎城堡,坐进一辆黑色大轿车。时值午夜,天下起了雨。
“带我离开这儿,越快越好,”他说。汽车驶入黑夜和雨幕中。
“这是怎样的一个晚上啊!”司机说,“我想天空都在哭泣了,陛下。”
Suddenly the King turned to Mr Churchill.'Why is this happening to me,Winston?'he cried.'What have I done wrong?'
He sat down and put his head in his hands.There was a silence in the room,but through the open window came the shouting from the street.'Long live Edward!Long live love!Long live Edward!Long live love!'
On a small table in the centre of the room there was a piece of paper.Edward sat down and read these words:
I,Edward the Eighth,King of Great Britain,King of India,King of Australia,King of New Zealand,King of Canada,King of Kenya,King of Nigeria,King of Bur-ma,King of Malaya,King of Singapore,and King of thirty-two other countries,have today given the crown to my brother George.
“每个人都需要自己的家庭。每个人都需要自己的家园。但今晚,这两样你都失去了。”
“我爱你。我是你的母亲,这是什么都改变不了的。但如果你பைடு நூலகம்了那个女人,就会伤透我的心。现在走吧。这太让人伤心了。”
爱德华吻了王太后玛丽的手。然后他转身走了。
第二天,爱德华回到了温莎城堡。他走进城堡顶部一间狭小阴冷的房间。在那里,他通过BBC的广播向英国和全世界讲了话。
Edward kissed Queen Mary's hand.Then he turned and walked away.
