高一英语小故事1It 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.高一英语小故事2A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life. Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups -, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite - telling them to help themselves to the coffee. When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said: "If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress. Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you reallywanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups. And then you began eyeing each other's cups.Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not define, nor change the quality of Life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has provided us."God brews the coffee, not the cups.......... Enjoy your coffee! "The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything."Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly.Leave the rest to God!高一英语小故事3An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse; she jumped and caught the mouse. But she could not bite it; so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it.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."高一英语小故事4Chen Jingrun is a famous mathematician , he draw up a work schedule for herself every day,to make full use of every second of a day.

We can not see it. But we can feel it go by.Many people say, “ Time is money. Time is life.” But I think time is more important than money. And our life are consists of time. We take a lot of time to play every day. But we can use that time to do a lot of things like reading books, listening to English tapes, learning maths and so on. We can not waste time on sleeping all the time. We must value time as we value our lives.I never waste time. And I hope everyone will make the best use of time to learn more. So friends, please cherish time!高一英语小故事6If you ask me what is the most precious, I would say that it’s time. Time is something once lost, you could never have again. Therefore, we should cherish it and spend it in meaningful things. However, many people do too many meaningless things to kill their time, such as playing computer, watching TV, or gossiping. When you do these things, the time has long been unwittingly flowed away. In my opinion, the best way to make full use of time is planning your time rationally and sticking the plan firmly. Spending more time on something significant not only will make your life fulfilling, but also will give you a sense of accomplishment. Instead, killing your time with meaninglessthings would bring you depression even despair. Remember that those who abandon time will be also abandoned by time.高一英语小故事7Long ago,there was a big cat in the house.

1、The Thirsty Pigeon口渴的鸽子A PIGEON, oppressed by excessive thirst, saw a goblet of water painted on a signboard. Not supposing it to be only a picture, she flew towards it with a loud whir and unwittingly dashed against the signboard, jarring herself terribly. Having broken her wings by the blow, she fell to the ground, and was caught by one of the bystanders.Zeal should not outrun discretion.有只鸽子口渴得很难受,看见画板上画着一个水瓶,以为是真的。
他立刻呼呼地猛飞过去,不料一头碰撞在画板上,折断了翅膀,摔在地上,被人轻易地捉住了。
这是说,有些人想急于得到所需的东西,一时冲动,草率从事,就会身遭不幸。
2、The Raven and the Swan乌鸦和天鹅A RAVEN saw a Swan and desired to secure for himself the same beautiful plumage. Supposing that the Swan's splendid white color arose from his washing in the water in which he swam, the Raven left the altars in the neighborhood where he picked up his living, and took up residence in the lakes and pools. But cleansing his feathers as often as he would, he could not change their color, while through want of food he perished.Change of habit cannot alter Nature.乌鸦非常羡慕天鹅洁白的羽毛。
他猜想天鹅一定是经常洗澡,羽毛才变得如此洁白无瑕。
于是,他毅然离开了他赖以生存的祭坛,来到江湖边。
他天天洗刷自己的羽毛,不但一点都没洗白,反而因缺少食物饥饿而死。
这故事是说,人的本性不会随着生活方式的改变而改变。
3、The Goat and the Goatherd 山羊与牧羊人A GOATHERD had sought to bring back a stray goat to his flock. He whistled and sounded his horn in vain; the straggler paid no attention to the summons. At last the Goatherd threw a stone, and breaking its horn, begged the Goat not to tell his master. The Goat replied, "Why, you silly fellow, the horn will speak though I be silent."Do not attempt to hide things which cannot be hid.很多山羊被牧羊人赶到羊圈里。
有一只山羊不知在吃什么好东西,单独落在后面。
牧羊人拿起一块石头扔了过去,正巧打断了山羊的一只角。
牧羊人吓得请求山羊不要告诉主人,山羊说:“即使我不说,又怎能隐瞒下去呢?我的角已断了,这是十分明显的事实。
”这故事说明,明显的罪状是无法隐瞒的。
4、The Miser守财奴A MISER sold all that he had and bought a lump of gold, which he buried in a hole in the ground by the side of an old wall and went to look at daily. One of his workmen observed his frequent visits to the spot and decided to watch his movements. He soon discovered the secret of the hidden treasure, and digging down, came to the lump of gold, and stole it. The Miser, on his next visit, found the hole empty and began to tear his hair and to make loud lamentations. A neighbor, seeing him overcome with grief and learning the cause, said, "Pray do not grieve so; but go and take a stone, and place it in the hole, and fancy that the gold is still lying there. It will do you quite the same service; for when the gold was there, you had it not, as you did not make the slightest use of it."有个守财奴变卖了他所有的家产,换回了金块,并秘密地埋在一个地方。
他每天走去看看他的宝藏。
有个在附近放羊的牧人留心观察,知道了真情,趁他走后,挖出金块拿走了。
守财奴再来时,发现洞中的金块没有了,便捶胸痛哭。
有个人见他如此悲痛,问明原因后,说道:“喂,朋友,别再难过了,那块金子虽是你买来的,但并不是你真正拥有的。
去拿一块石头来,代替金块放在洞里,只要你心里想着那是块金子,你就会很高兴。
这样与你拥有真正的金块效果没什么不同。
依我之见,你拥有那金块时,也从没用过。
”这故事说明,一切财物如不使用等于没有。
狼与小羊WOLF, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea to justify to the Lamb the Wolf's right to eat him. He thus addressed him:"Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf , "You feed in my pasture." "No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well. " "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me." Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, "Well! I won't remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations."The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.一只小羊在河边喝水,狼见到后,便想找一个名正言顺的借口吃掉他。
于是他跑到上游,恶狠狠地说小羊把河水搅浑浊了,使他喝不到清水。
小羊回答说,他仅仅站在河边喝水,并且又在下游,根本不可能把上游的水搅浑。
狼见此计不成,又说道:“我父亲去年被你骂过。
”小羊说,那时他还没有出生。
狼对他说:“不管你怎样辩解,反正我不会放过你。
”这说明,对恶人做任何正当的辩解也是无效的。
蝙蝠与黄鼠狼A BAT who fell upon the ground and was caught by a Weasel pleaded to be spared his life. The Weasel refused, saying that he was by nature the enemy of all birds. The Bat assured him that he was not a bird, but a mouse, and thus was set free. Shortly afterwards the Bat again fell to the ground and was caught by another Weasel, whom he likewise entreated not to eat him. The Weasel said that he had a special hostility to mice. The Bat assured him that he was not a mouse, but a bat, and thus a second time escaped.It is wise to turn circumstances to good account.蝙蝠掉落在地上,被黄鼠狼叼去,他请求饶命。
