(善有善报，恶有恶报，善良的人终会有好报，灰姑娘最终找到了自己的幸福，与王子幸福地生活在一起！) 话题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.
话题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 …..

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，有个瞎子坐在一栋大楼的台阶上，脚下的标牌上写着：“我是个瞎子，请帮帮我。”
一位有创意的广告员从瞎子身旁经过时停了下来，看到瞎子的帽子里只有一些硬币。他也在帽子里放了几个硬币，未经允许，就拿过标牌，翻过来在上面重新写了一句标语，然后把标牌放回瞎子的脚下，离开了。
那天下午晚些时候，这位广告员回到了这个身旁，他发现帽子里几乎装满了纸钞和硬币。瞎子听出了他的脚步声，问他是否是那个改标牌的人？他也想知道这位男士在上面写了什么。
广告员回答说：“我只是改了你的标语使人们能够看明白。”他向这个瞎子表达了祝福，说了再见，继续走自己的路。
瞎子并不知道，他的新标语是这样的：
现在是春天，但我却看不到。
⑨ 小学五年级英语小故事
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。
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。
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.

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。
The Wolf and the Lamb 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。
The Bat and the Weasels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.

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."

“你当时嘲笑我，不相信能得到我的报答， 现在可清楚了，老鼠也能报恩。” 这故事说明，时运交替变更，强者也会有需要弱者的时候。
