題目是Mary has a little lamb 瑪麗有一頭小羔羊
Mary and her husband Dimitri lived in the tiny village of Perachora in southern GREece. One of Mary's prize possessions was a little white lamb which her husband had given her. She kept it tied to a tree in a field ring the day and went to fetch it every evening. One evening, however, the lamb was missing. The rope had been cut, so it was obvious that the lamb had been stolen.
When Dimitri came in from the fields, His wife told him what had happened. Dimitri at once set out to find the thief. He knew it would not prove difficult in such a small village. After telling several of his friends about the theft, Dimitri found out that his neighbour, Aleko, had suddenly acquired a new lamb. Dimitri immediately went to Aleko's house and angrily accused him of stealing the lamb. He told him he had better return it or he would call the police. Aleko denied taking it and led Dimitri into his back-yard. It was true that he had just bought a lamb, he explained, but his lamb was black. Ashamed of having acted so rashly, Dimitri apologized to Aleko for having accused him. While they were talking it began to rain and Dimitri stayed in Aleko's house until the rain stopped. When he went outside half an hour later, he was astonished to find that the little black lamb was almost white. Its wool, which had been dyed black, had been washed clean by the rain !
瑪麗與丈夫迪米特里住在希臘南部一個叫波拉考拉的小村莊里。瑪麗最珍貴的財產之一就是丈夫送給她的一隻白色小羔羊。白天，瑪麗把羔羊拴在地里的一棵樹上。每天晚上把它牽回家。可是，一天晚上，那隻小羔羊失蹤了。繩子被人割斷，很明顯小羔羊是被人偷走了。
迪米特里從地里回來，妻子把情況跟他一說，他馬上出去找偷羔羊的人。他知道在這樣一個小村莊里抓住小偷並不困難。把失竊的事告訴幾個朋友後，迪米特里發現他的鄰居阿列科家突然多了一隻小羔羊。迪米特里立刻去了阿列科家，氣呼呼地指責他偷了羔羊，告訴他最好把羊交還，否則就去叫警察。阿列科不承認，並把迪米特里領進院子。不錯，他的確剛買了一隻羔羊，阿列科解釋說，但他的羔羊是黑色的。迪米特里為自己的魯莽而感到不好意思，向阿列科道了歉，說是錯怪了他。就在他倆說話的時候，天下起了雨，迪米特里便呆在阿列科家裡避雨，一直等到雨停為止。半小時後，當他從屋裡出來時，他驚奇地發現小黑羔羊全身幾乎都變成了白色。原來羊毛上染的黑色被雨水沖掉了！

㈢ 九年級英語書中的嫦娥奔月的故事
相傳在遠古的時候，天上突然出現了十個太陽，使老百姓無法生活。有一個力大無比的人叫後羿。他決定要幫助老百姓，於是他登上昆侖山頂，用他的神弓射下了九個太陽。還對剩下的那個太陽說：「從今以後，你每天必須按時升起，按時落下，為民造福!」
後羿幫助了老百姓，大家都很敬重他。很多人拜他為師，跟他學習武藝。有個叫逢蒙的，為人奸詐貪婪，也拜了後羿為師。後羿的妻子叫嫦娥，是個美麗善良的女子。她經常幫助生活貧苦的鄉親，鄉親們都很喜歡她。有一天，昆侖山的西王母送給後羿一丸仙葯。人吃了這種仙葯，可以長生不老，還可以升天成仙。但是後羿不願意離開嫦娥，就讓她將仙葯藏在百寶匣里。
這件事卻被逢蒙看到了，他想把後羿的仙葯弄到手。八月十清晨，後羿要帶弟子出門去，逢蒙假裝生病，留下來了。到了晚上，逢蒙手提寶劍闖進後羿家裡，威逼嫦娥把仙葯交出來。嫦娥想不能讓這樣的人吃了長生不老葯。於是，她與逢蒙周旋。逢蒙見嫦娥不肯交出仙葯，就自己到處找。眼看就要搜到百寶匣了，嫦娥疾步向前，取出仙葯，一口吞了下去。嫦娥吃了仙葯之後，飄飄悠悠地飛了起來。她飛出了窗子，嫦娥一直朝著月亮飛去。
等後羿回來，不見了妻子嫦娥。他焦急地沖出門外，只見皓月當空，圓圓的月亮上樹影婆娑，一隻玉兔在樹下跳來跳去。他的妻子正站在一棵桂樹旁深情地望著他。後羿一邊呼喚，一邊朝著月亮追去。可是他向前追三步，月亮就向後退三步，怎麼也追不上。鄉親們也想念嫦娥，便在院子里擺上嫦娥平日愛吃的食物。從此以後，每年八月十五，就成了人們團圓的中秋佳節。

《簡·愛》：人生追求的二重奏
《簡·愛》是一部自傳成分很濃的小說，雖然書中的故事是虛構的，但是女主人公以及其他許多人物的生活、環境，甚至許多生活細節，都是取自作者及其周圍人的真實經驗。作者夏洛蒂·勃朗特1816年生於英國北部的一個牧師家庭。母親早逝，八歲的夏洛蒂被送進一所寄宿學校。在那裡生活條件極其惡劣，她的兩個姐姐因染上肺病而先後死去。於是夏洛蒂和妹妹艾米利回到家鄉，在荒涼的約克郡山區度過了童年。15歲時她進了伍勒小姐辦的學校讀書，幾年後又在這個學校當教師。後來她曾作家庭教師，但因不能忍受貴婦人、闊小姐對家庭教師的歧視和刻薄，放棄了家庭教師的謀生之路。她曾打算自辦學校，為此她在姨母的資助下與艾米利一起去義大利進修法語和德語。然而由於沒有人來就讀，學校沒能辦成。但是她在義大利學習的經歷激發了她表現自我的強烈願望，促使她投身於文學創作的道路
《簡·愛》寫於1846年，是夏洛蒂的第二部小說。她借一個出身寒微的年輕女子奮斗的經歷，抒發了自己胸中的積愫，深深打動了當時的讀者。小說於1847年秋以柯勒·貝爾的筆名發表，隨即在次年又相繼兩次再版。這位名不見經傳的作者，夏洛蒂·勃朗特，由此進入英國著名小說家的行列。
相關練習

2、《簡·愛》以第一人稱敘述，主人公簡·愛是孤女，成年後到桑菲爾德貴族庄園當家庭教師，她以真摯的情感和高尚的品德贏得了東家羅切斯特的尊敬和愛戀。
3、《簡·愛》主人公簡·愛的人生追求由兩個基本「旋律」構成，首先，她富於激情、幻想和反抗精神，是浪漫主義文學傳統的精神女兒。另一方面她又追求超越個人幸福的至高境界。「旅行」、「求索」是貫穿小說的比喻。對人間自由幸福的渴念和對更高精神境界的追求是女主人公的兩個基本動機。

The Old Cat
An 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."

老貓
一位老婦有隻貓，這只貓很老，它跑不快了，也咬不了東西，因為它年紀太大了。一天，老貓發現一隻老鼠，它跳過去抓這只老鼠，然而，它咬不住這只老鼠。因此，老鼠從它的嘴邊溜掉了，因為老貓咬不了它。
於是，老婦很生氣，因為老貓沒有把老鼠咬死。她開始打這只貓，貓說：「不要打你的老僕人，我已經為你服務了很多年，而且還願意為你效勞，但是，我實在太老了，對年紀大的不要這么無情，要記
住老年人在年青時所做過的有益的事情。」
A man was going to the house of some rich person. As he went along the road, he saw a box of good apples at the side of the road. He said, "I do not want to eat those apples; for the rich man will give me much food; he will give me very nice food to eat." Then he took the apples and threw them away into the st.
He went on and came to a river. The river had become very big; so he could not go over it. He waited for some time; then he said, "I cannot go to the rich man's house today, for I cannot get over the river."
He began to go home. He had eaten no food that day. He began to want food. He came to the apples, and he was glad to take them out of the st and eat them.
Do not throw good things away; you may be glad to have them at some other time.
【譯文】
一個人正朝著一個富人的房子走去，當他沿著路走時，在路的一邊他發現一箱好蘋果，他說：「我不打算吃那些蘋果，因為富人會給我更多的食物，他會給我很好吃的東西。」然後他拿起蘋果，一把扔到土裡去。
他繼續走，來到河邊，河漲水了，因此，他到不了河對岸，他等了一會兒，然後他說：「今天我去不了富人家了，因為我不能渡過河。」
他開始回家，那天他沒有吃東西。他就開始去找吃的，他找到蘋果，很高興地把它們從塵土中翻出來吃了。
不要把好東西扔掉，換個時候你會覺得它們大有用處。

Far and away the most important holiday in China is Spring Festival, also known as the Chinese New Year. To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to people in the West. The dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar rather than the Gregorian calendar, so the timing of the holiday varies from late January to early February.
To the ordinary Chinese, the festival actually begins on the eve of the lunar New Year's Day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar calendar. But the 15th of the first month, which normally is called the Lantern Festival, means the official end of the Spring Festival in many parts of the country. 總的來說在中國最重要的節日是春節,亦稱中國新年。對中國人民來說它的重要性就如方聖誕節對於西方人民。這個一年一次的節日日期取決於陰歷而不是格里歷，因此假日的時間變化從一月下旬到上旬2月。對普通的中國人，節日總是在除夕夜開始,結束於陰歷的第一個月的第五天。 但1第一個月的15號，通常稱燈會，在國家的大部分地區意味春節的正式結尾。
The Wolf and the Crane狼與鷺鷥
A WOLF who had a bone stuck in his throat hired a Crane, for a large sum, to put her head into his mouth and draw out the bone. When the Crane had extracted the bone and demanded the promised payment, the Wolf, grinning and grinding his teeth, exclaimed:
Why, you have surely already had a sufficient recompense, in having been permitted to draw out your head in safety from the mouth and jaws of a wolf." In serving the wicked, expect no reward, and be thankful if you escape injury for your pains.

Now satellites are helping to forecast（預報）the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大氣）, because this is where the weather forms（形成）. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（氣象學家）can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.
Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare（比較）them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed ring the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.
So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead（提前）.

愚公移山 （How Yu Gong Moved Away Two High Mountains） There were two high mountains between Jizhou in the south and Heyang in the north. One was called Taihang Mountain and the other Wangwu Mountain. Both of the mountains were very high. Just to the north of the mountains lived an old man called Yu Gong who was nearly 90 years old. With the two high mountains just in front of his house, his family and he had to walk a long way around the mountains whenever they had something to do on the other side of the mountains. One day, Yu Gong called all his family together to talk about how to move the two mountains to other places. His wife said, "An old man like you cannot even move a small hill, not to mention the two high mountains. Even if you can, where can you throw so much earth and stone?" "The Bohai Sea is big enough to contain all the earth and stone," Yu Gong said. So it was decided. His children started to dig the mountains, led by the old man Yu Gong. A man named Zhi Sou saw them working and tried to stop them, saying, "You are so silly! You're so old and weak that you can't even take away the grass and trees. How can you move the high mountains?" "You're wrong," Yu Gong said with a sigh. "Look, my sons can continue my work after my death. When my sons die, my grandchildren will continue. So generations after generations, there's no end. But the mountains can't grow higher. Do you still say I can't move them away?" Later the Heaven God, upon learning of Yu Gong's story, was greatly moved. He then ordered another god to come down and take the two high mountains away. The story tells us that so long as one is determined and sticks to it long enough, anything can be done, no matter how difficult it is. 在冀州的南面，河陽的北面，有兩座巍峨的大山，一座是太行，一座是王屋，方圓七百里，有萬丈高。 山的北邊住著年近90的愚公。由於家門被山擋住，每次外出全家人都要繞過大山，多走很多路。 一天，愚公把全家人召集到一起，商量著把兩座大山移走。妻子說：「憑你的力量，連一座小山丘也移不走，何況這兩座大山呢？再說，你就是能移走，那土石往哪裡放呢？」愚公說：「渤海那麼大，可以把土石扔到渤海里去。」 說干就干，愚公帶領子孫們挖起山來。河曲的智叟看見了，笑著阻止道：「你真是太傻了！以你的殘年餘力，連山上的一根草都動不了，更何況大山？」愚公嘆了口氣說：「你錯了。你想想，我死了以後還有我的兒子，我的兒子又有兒子，子子孫孫沒有窮盡！可是山上的土石不會增加，還怕挖不走嗎？」 愚公移山的事很快被玉皇大帝知道了。玉帝被愚公堅韌不拔的精神所感動，便派大力神把兩座大山背走了。 這個故事告訴我們：只要有決心，有毅力，再難的事情也能辦成。

扔掉的亞麻的故事
The Hurds
Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm
Once upon a time there was a girl who was beautiful, but lazy and negligent. When she had to spin she was so ill tempered that if there was a little knot in the flax, she at once pulled out a whole heap of it, and scattered it about on the ground beside her. Now she had a servant who was instrious, and who gathered together the discarded flax, cleaned it, spun it well, and had a beautiful dress woven out of it for herself.
A young man had courted the lazy girl, and the wedding was about to take place. On the eve of the wedding, the instrious girl was dancing merrily about in her beautiful dress, and the bride said,
Ach, wat kann das M??ken springen
in minen Slickerlingen!
Ah, how that girl can jump about,
in my hurds!
The bridegroom heard this, and asked the bride what she meant by it. So she told him that the girl was wearing a dress made from the flax which she had thrown away. When the bridegroom heard this, and saw how lazy she was, and how instrious the poor girl was, he gave her up and went to the other girl, and chose her as his wife.

釘子的故事
The Nail
Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm
A merchant had done well at the fair. He had sold all his wares, and filled his moneybag with gold and silver. He now wanted to make his way toward home, and to be in his own house before nightfall. So he loaded his ffel bag with the money onto his horse, and rode away.
At noon made a rest stop in a town. When he was about to continue on his way, a servant brought him his horse and said, "Sir, a nail is missing from the shoe on his left hind hoof."
"Let it be," answered the merchant. "The shoe will certainly stay on for the six hours that I still have to ride. I am in a hurry."
That afternoon, when he dismounted once again and had his horse fed, a servant came into the inn and said, "Sir, a shoe is missing from your horse's left hind hoof. Shall I take him to the blacksmith?"
"Let it be," answered the man. "The horse can manage for the few hours that I still have to ride. I am in a hurry."
He rode on, but before long the horse began to limp. It did not limp long before it began to stumble, and it did not stumble long before it fell down and broke a leg. The merchant had to leave the horse where it was, and unbuckle the ffel bag, load it onto his shoulder, and walk home on foot, not arriving there until very late that night.
"All this bad luck," he said to himself, "was caused by that cursed nail."
Haste makes waste.
一個商人在集市上生意紅火,他賣完了所有的貨,錢袋裝得滿滿的。他想天黑前趕到家,便把錢箱捆在了馬背上,騎著馬兒出發了。
中午時分,他到了一個鎮上休息了一會。當他想繼續趕路時,馬童牽出馬來對他說:「老爺,馬後腿的蹄鐵上需要加顆釘子。」「由它去吧,」商人回答說,「這塊蹄鐵肯定能撐到走完這六里路,我要急著趕路呢!」
下午時候,他又一次叫人喂馬,馬童走進房間對他說:「老爺,馬後腿上的一塊蹄鐵掉了,要不要我把它帶到鐵匠那去呢?」「由它去吧!」商人回答說,「這馬一定能堅持走完這剩下的幾里路,我時間緊著呢!」
他騎著馬兒繼續往前走,但不久以後馬就開始一步一瘸的了,再過會兒就開始踉踉蹌蹌,最後它終於跌倒在地,折斷了腿。那生意人只好扔下他的馬,解下錢箱扛在背上,步行回家。等趕回家時已是午夜時分,只聽他嘀咕著:「都是那顆該死的釘子把我給害慘了。」
