有趣的英语故事及翻译五篇【篇一】有趣的英语故事及翻译The somehow sent the crow a little bit of cheese. Thecrow had perched upon a fir. She seemed to have steeled downto enjoy her provender1, But mused2 with mouth half-closed,the dainty bit still in it.Unhappily the fox came running past that minute. A whiffof scent3 soon brings him to a pause, And the fox sights the cheese and licks his jaws4.The rascal5 steals on tip-toe to the tree. He curls his tail, and, gazing earnestly. He speaks so soft, scarce whispering each word:"How beautiful you are, sweet bird! What a neck, and oh! what eyes, Like a dream of Paradise! Then, what feathers!What a beak6! And, sure, an angel's voice if only you would speak! Sing, darling; don't be shy! Oh, sister, truth to tell, if you, with charms like these, can sing as well, Of birdsyou'd be the queen adorable! the silly creature's head turns giddy with his praise. Her breath, for very rapture7, swells8 her throat; the fox's soft persuasion9 she obeys. And high as crow can pitch she caws one piercing note."Down falls the cheese! Both cheese and fox have gonetheir ways.How often have they told us, please, and always to nouse-that flattery's mean and base. The flatterer in ourhearts will always find a place.上帝不知何故赏给了乌鸦一小块奶酪。
于是,乌鸦高高地躲在枞树的树梢,似乎要安顿下来开始享用美味。
但是嘴里含着那一小块奶酪,心里还要思量一番。
不过倒霉得很,一只狐狸从旁边经过,奶酪的飘香让狐狸止住了奔跑。
狐狸看着奶酪,舔舔嘴。
这狡猾的东西踮起脚尖偷偷走近枞树。
它卷起尾巴,目不转睛地瞅着,非常柔和的说话了,几乎每个字都是窃窃私语:“心肝宝贝,你长得多么美妙啊!瞧那脖子,瞧那眼睛,美的像个天堂的梦!多好的羽毛,多好的嘴巴,你一开口,一定会有天使的声音,唱吧!亲爱的,别害羞! 啊!小妹妹, 说实话,你这么美丽迷人,要是再唱得悦耳动听,那你就是令人拜倒的鸟中皇后了!”那蠢鸟被赞美地晕头转向,高兴地都要透不过气来。
它听从了狐狸的柔声劝诱,尽其所能提升了嗓门,发出了呱呱的叫声。
奶酪坠地,狐狸衔起它就没影了。
对于阿谀奉承的卑鄙和恶劣,我们接受过多少次告诫,不过一切都是徒劳,马屁精总会在我们心里占据一席之地。

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。
不过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。

没想到隔天居然又看到袋鼠全跑到外面,于是管理员们大为紧张,决定一不做二不休,将笼子的高度加高到10米。
一天,长颈鹿和几只袋鼠在闲聊,“你们看,这些人会不会再继续加高你们的笼子?”长颈鹿问。
“很难说。
