(善有善報,惡有惡報,善良的人終會有好報,灰姑娘最終找到了自己的幸福,與王子幸福地生活在一起!) 話題1
Being online is no longer something strange in our life. We can do a lot of things online.In recently the most helpful online activity has become very "in". That is online ecation.
Why could online ecation be so popular within such a short period of time?The quick development of the internet should be an essential one, which makes all our dreams of attending class in the distance possible. Another underlying reason is the quick development of both society and technology. Today, modern science and technology we all feel an urgent and strong desire to study. Online ecation just comes to their aid.
Personally, I appreciate this new form of ecation. It's indeed a helpful complement to the traditional ecation means. It can provide different learners with more flexible and versatile ways of learning. Most of all, with online ecation, we can sick to our jobs and at the same time study and absorb the latest knowledge.
The traditional ecational system were shown on two aspects:First of all, ecation became the tool for maintain the present system.the ecation held by the government,that was not based on the principle of the spirit of respecting.Ecation never considers children and young people but was always studying on how to maintain the present system and order under some condition.Secondly, the traditional ecation system was not suitable for the children』s development.The traditional teaching aim was procing belief but not thinking. It was to impose the youth to hold some ideas about suspicious issues but not help them see the suspicious points and encourage them to think about that independently.The traditional teaching methods were input. Teachers only pour textbook knowledge into children』s mind and children received wisdom from teachers passively. Students didn』t have time to think or develop their hobbies from the first day they entered the university to the last day they left it. Children had nothing except a long period of hardship preparing for the examinations and learning knowledge from the textbooks. Students』 characteristics were distorted and their ideas about freedom were prevented by teachers.
話題2
First time I stepped into my college ,I was weighted down. 「It is a small normal university, which is too far away from the college I had dreaming for .」 And then ,the dormitory freak me out again ,only four bank-beds with a narrow short corridor sharing with eight persons . 「My god ,help me!!!」 I murmured . But fortunately ,I am a optimistic girl, So I said to myself : Just take things as they come! And then the journey of my college life goes on…..
Impression of the ivory tower
The common things students do when they first enter the University is to take part in many activities, like the Student Union, English Association and all kinds of sports team, etc. But the first thing you should do is to having many interviews which really kill me! I failed a lot before I became the number of the Creation Association. And form the frustration of these interviews I have learned a lot : Opportunity waits for no one , it only created by yourself. When the going gets tough ,the tough get going .
Another part of college』s life is the dorm. People in our dorm is fine. But e to different personalities, the complication still exist .And that』s why everyone in the dorm should learn to be forgiveness while we are going to live together for four years. To some extent ,our dorm is not only a place for us to have a rest , it means more ----yet, a family ! Our study , entertainment, and life are all in this limited rooms , we are close sisters ,and we are a family .
Try to worth your salt
For the part of study ,I always believe one motto: 「Study this matter, lack the time, but is lack diligently.」 I found there are two tends in the college :one is who always feel time pressing and keep his nose into the grindstone ;the other are those kill time in many activities and pay no attention to their study ; But as for me, I would not choose neither of them .Since my major class seems not attracted me too much, I spend more time on the extra reading and listening ;I am sure that the self-study not only can widen my knowledge but also will develop my creative mind. All in all, no matter which way you choose to study ,you need the diligence ,and , to realize the value of your study.
My past time
As you can see, my life is not always the study , I』d like to go out of the dorm and make some new friends .I usually go to the English Corner and play games with the students from other departments; I went to the high school for the volunteer teaching ,and gain a lot of fun from the students while bringing them the knowledge; I also took a journey to a fruit mountain with our track and field team which left me a wonderful memory . Apart from these outdoor activities ,I also delighted to met those guys and girls who share the common interest with me through the Internet. It is really enjoyable to talk to them.
That』s all my college life for the first year. And today I am a sophomore, I know I have to realize what my goal is and go for it .College is no means an ivory tower for me ,and I am not a caged bird too, because my feather is brighting now and my dream keeps going in …..

生存之道:不是每個往你身上拉大糞的人都是你的敵人。也不是每個把你從糞堆里拉出來的人都是你的朋友,還有,當你躺在糞堆里時,最好把你的嘴閉上。
One day, there was a blind man sitting on the steps of a building with a sign by his feet, that read: "I am blind, please help."
A creative publicist was walking by the blind man and stopped to observe that the man only had a few coins in his hat. He put a few of his own coins in the hat, and without stopping to ask for permission, took the sign, turned it around, and wrote a new message. He then placed the sign by the feet of the blind man, and left.
Later that afternoon the creative publicist returned by the blind man and noticed that his hat was almost completely full of bills and coins. The blind man recognized his footsteps and asked if it was him who had changed his sign? He also wanted to know what the man wrote on it?
一天,有個瞎子坐在一棟大樓的台階上,腳下的標牌上寫著:「我是個瞎子,請幫幫我。」
一位有創意的廣告員從瞎子身旁經過時停了下來,看到瞎子的帽子里只有一些硬幣。他也在帽子里放了幾個硬幣,未經允許,就拿過標牌,翻過來在上面重新寫了一句標語,然後把標牌放回瞎子的腳下,離開了。
那天下午晚些時候,這位廣告員回到了這個身旁,他發現帽子里幾乎裝滿了紙鈔和硬幣。瞎子聽出了他的腳步聲,問他是否是那個改標牌的人?他也想知道這位男士在上面寫了什麼。
廣告員回答說:「我只是改了你的標語使人們能夠看明白。」他向這個瞎子表達了祝福,說了再見,繼續走自己的路。
瞎子並不知道,他的新標語是這樣的:
現在是春天,但我卻看不到。
⑨ 小學五年級英語小故事
The Thirsty Pigeon口渴的鴿子
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.
有隻鴿子口渴得很難受,看見畫板上畫著一個水瓶,以為是真的。他立刻呼呼地猛飛過 去,不料一頭碰撞在畫板上,折斷了翅膀,摔在地上,被人輕易地捉住了。
這是說,有些人想急於得到所需的東西,一時沖動,草率從事,就會身遭不幸。
The Raven and the Swan烏鴉和天鵝
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.
烏鴉非常羨慕天鵝潔白的羽毛。他猜想天鵝一定是經常洗澡,羽毛才變得如此潔白無 瑕。於是,他毅然離開了他賴以生存的祭壇,來到江湖邊。他天天洗刷自己的羽毛,不但一 點都沒洗白,反而因缺少食物飢餓而死。
這故事是說,人的本性不會隨著生活方式的改變而改變。
The Goat and the Goatherd 山羊與牧羊人
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.
很多山羊被牧羊人趕到羊圈裡。有一隻山羊不知在吃什麼好東西,單獨落在後面。牧羊 人拿起一塊石頭扔了過去,正巧打斷了山羊的一隻角。牧羊人嚇得請求山羊不要告訴主人, 山羊說:「即使我不說,又怎能隱瞞下去呢?我的角已斷了,這是十分明顯的事實。」
這故事說明,明顯的罪狀是無法隱瞞的。
The Miser守財奴
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."
有個守財奴變賣了他所有的家產,換回了金塊,並秘密地埋在一個地方。他每天走去看 看他的寶藏。有個在附近放羊的牧人留心觀察,知道了真情,趁他走後,挖出金塊拿走了。 守財奴再來時,發現洞中的金塊沒有了,便捶胸痛哭。有個人見他如此悲痛,問明原因後, 說道:「喂,朋友,別再難過了,那塊金子雖是你買來的,但並不是你真正擁有的。去拿一 塊石頭來,代替金塊放在洞里,只要你心裡想著那是塊金子,你就會很高興。這樣與你擁有 真正的金塊效果沒什麼不同。依我之見,你擁有那金塊時,也從沒用過。」
這故事說明,一切財物如不使用等於沒有。
The Wolf and the Lamb 狼與小羊
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.
一隻小羊在河邊喝水,狼見到後,便想找一個名正言順的借口吃掉他。於是他跑到上游,惡狠狠地說小羊把河水攪渾濁了,使他喝不到清水。小羊回答說,他僅僅站在河邊喝水,並且又在下游,根本不可能把上游的水攪渾。狼見此計不成,又說道:「我父親去年被你罵過。」小羊說,那時他還沒有出生。狼對他說:「不管你怎樣辯解,反正我不會放過 你。」
這說明,對惡人做任何正當的辯解也是無效的。
The Bat and the Weasels蝙蝠與黃鼠狼
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,被黃鼠狼叼去,他請求饒命。黃鼠狼說絕不會放過他,自己生來痛恨鳥類。蝙蝠說他是老鼠,不是鳥,便被放了。後來蝙蝠又掉落了下來,被另一隻黃鼠狼叼住,他再三請求不要吃他。這只黃鼠狼說他恨一切鼠類。蝙蝠改口說自己是鳥類,並非老 鼠,又被放了。這樣,蝙蝠兩次改變了自己的名字,終於死裡逃生。
這故事說明,我們遇事要隨機應變方能避免危險。
The Ass and the Grasshopper 驢子與蚱蜢
AN ASS having heard some Grasshoppers chirping, was highly enchanted; and, desiring to possess the same charms of melody, demanded what sort of food they lived on to give them such beautiful voices. They replied, "The dew." The Ass resolved that he would live only upon dew, and in a short time died of hunger.
驢子聽見蚱蜢唱歌,被美妙動聽的歌聲所打動,自己也想能發出同樣悅耳動聽的聲音,便 羨慕地問他們吃些什麼,才能發出如此美妙的聲音來。蚱蜢答道:「吃露水。」驢子便也只吃露水,沒多久就餓死了。
這個故事告訴人們不要企望非份之物。
The Lion and the Mouse 獅子與報恩的老鼠
A LION was awakened from sleep by a Mouse running over his face. Rising up angrily, he caught him and was about to kill him, when the Mouse piteously entreated, saying: "If you would only spare my life, I would be sure to repay your kindness." The Lion laughed and let him go. It happened shortly after this that the Lion was caught by some hunters, who bound him by strong ropes to the ground. The Mouse, recognizing his roar, came and gnawed the rope with his teeth and set him free, exclaiming:
"You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favor; now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to con benefits on a Lion."
獅子睡著了,有隻老鼠跳到了他身上。獅子猛然站起來,把他抓住,准備吃掉。老鼠請求饒命,並說如果保住性命,必將報恩,獅子輕蔑地笑了笑,便把他放走了。不久,獅子真的被老鼠救了性命。原來獅子被一個獵人抓獲,並用繩索把他捆在一棵樹上。老鼠聽到了他 的哀嚎,走過去咬斷繩索,放走了獅子,並說:
「你當時嘲笑我,不相信能得到我的報答, 現在可清楚了,老鼠也能報恩。」 這故事說明,時運交替變更,強者也會有需要弱者的時候。
