5分鍾左右英語故事：Theft Occurs Everywhere
An elderly woman told the police that, as she entered a restroom, she was jostled by a woman behind her. A few minutes later, as she was about to pay for a moustache remover at a nearby store, she discovered that her wallet was missing from her purse. Apparently the woman who had bumped into her had cleverly stolen her wallet. This type of theft is called pick-pocketing.
Perhaps an even more personal kind of theft is known as housebreaking, or burglary. After such an intrusion, the victims often report a feeling of violation. They seldom regain the comfort and security level they used to have in their home. They constantly feel like they are being watched; they feel that if they go out, the burglars will again come in. They feel uncomfortable when they are home, and they feel uncomfortable when they aren’t home.
Burglars get lucky or make their own luck. Sometimes homeowners forget to lock all their windows or doors. Sometimes burglars will break a window, cut through a screen door, or force open a side door.
Thieves have no shame. They will steal from anyone that they think is vulnerable. Of course, that means the elderly are their frequent victims. Some thieves are very clever; some are very lucky. All of them make an honest person’s life more difficult. It’s too bad that all of them can’t be caught and converted into honest people.
Imagine that: a world with no larceny, a world where you can park your bicycle unsecured on the sidewalk, or leave your purse unattended in your shopping cart. Is this only a dream? Some say that if you can dream about it, it can happen.
5分鍾左右英語故事：Eggs and a Bunny
Easter Sunday was a cloudy but festive day in Memorial Park for about 100 kids from localorphanages. An Easter egg hunt started at 10 a.m. when a fire engine blasted its horn. Boys and girls, ranging in age from 2 to 6, dashed throughout the park, yelling and screaming, walking and running, and quite often, falling down. One little girl, Amanda, found her first egg less than a minute after the horn blew. Instead of putting it into her basket and continuing to search for more, she sat down. Then she spent the next 10 minutes examining it, unwrapping it, and eating it piece by piece. When she finished, she put the wrapper into her basket, wiped her hands on her white dress, and went to hunt for another egg.
Meanwhile Jeff, one of the older boys, filled his basket to overflowing. He asked one of the firemen to hold it for him, and then took off running for more candy eggs. As soon as he found some, he put them into the basket of the child closest to him. Two little toddlers both saw a candy egg at the same time, and they both bent over to pick it up. They banged heads, and both of them sat down bawling. A couple of volunteer nurses picked them up and told them that everything was going to be all right.
By 11 a.m., the search was over. Most of the kids were studying their candy, exchanging it with others, or eating it. But then the fire engine horn blasted again, causing three-year-old Jenny to cry. A fireman on a bullhorn told everyone to gather around, because a special guest had arrived.
Once everyone was settled, the Easter Bunny climbed down out of the fire engine. The bunny was 6’6” tall. Most of the kids cheered and ran toward him. Even Jenny stopped crying for a moment. She stared at the bunny and at all the kids running toward the bunny; then she started crying even harder. The Easter Bunny hugged the kids, and they hugged him. Then the Easter Bunny sat on a fire engine step, and one by one the kids came up, sat on his lap, and got their pictures taken. After that, the older kids were allowed to explore the fire engine itself.
The festivities ended about 3 p.m., when the orphans climbed into the buses for the return trip home. Most of them said they had a fun time. Six-year-old Sara asked, “Can we do this every Sunday?” And more than one boy asked, “Can I drive the fire engine next time?”
5分鍾左右英語故事：City and Crime
Crime in the city of Clio hit a 30-year low last year. "This is absolutely wonderful for our citizens, our businesses, and our visitors," said Police Chief Louis Gates. Clio has a population of 28,000, but it has at least 30 gangs. The gangs make most of their money from dealing drugs and offering “protection.” They also commit violent crimes, such as murder, battery, and rape.
There were 1,486 thefts last year. Most of the thefts involved cars. Thieves also robbed the people at gunpoint or pickpocketed them. They broke into houses and businesses at the alarming rate of two a day two years ago, but that rate was down to only one a day last year. "That's a 50-percent decrease in one year," beamed Gates. "I think the officers deserve a big pat on the back. Even better, maybe they’ll get that 10-percent raise that they are all hoping for next fiscal year."
Citing an example of how the police force has helped rece crime, Gates talked about bicycle thefts. "For years and years, kids were locking up their bikes at bike stands in front of schools, libraries, and malls. About 10 percent of the time, the kids would come out of the school or wherever and discover that their bike was no longer there. Someone had cut the lock and stolen their bike. We wracked our brains trying to find a solution to this problem. Finally, at the beginning of last year, we hit upon it. We simply removed most of the bike stands. Then the bicycle theft rate came down quickly.”
Most cities in the state have similar problems. They all involve too many people, too much crime, too few police, and too little funding. These problems are part and parcel of civilization everywhere. They might diminish, but they will probably never disappear. All people can do is hope for the best and prepare for the worst.

玩具士兵
Some toy soldiers made of brass were standing on a shelf of a toy shop. One of them had only one leg.
在一家玩具店的黃銅架子上擺放著一些玩具士兵。其中的一位士兵只有一條腿。
The shop had also a castle made of paper. A beautiful paper ballerina stood in front of the castle gate.
這家商店也是一座用紙造築的城堡。城堡門前站著一位紙做的美麗的芭蕾舞女。
The toy soldier with one-leg loved the ballerina. He wanted to dance with her, but he couldn't ask her because he only had one leg.
那位只有一條腿的玩具士兵很喜歡芭蕾舞女。他想邀她共舞，但是因為只有一條腿，他不好意思去邀請。
One day, a little girl bought the ballerina and took her to her house. The toy soldier was so sad. That night, the wind blew very hard. The toy soldier fell down to the street because of the wind. Some naughty boys found the toy soldier.
有一天，一個小女孩將芭蕾舞女買回家了。玩具士兵很傷心。那天晚上，大風呼呼的刮著。玩具士兵被大風吹落在街上。淘氣的男孩子們發現了玩具士兵。
"Look at him! This toy soldier has only one leg. Let's throw him into the river." The boys threw him in the river. When the toy soldier was drifting down the river, a big fish came over and swallowed him in its mouth.
“快看!這個玩具士兵只有一條腿。我們把他扔進河裡吧，”於是男孩們把士兵扔到了河裡。當玩具士兵順著河水漂流時，一條大魚遊了過來張口把他吞進了嘴裡。
After a while, the fish was caught by a fisherman's rod. He sold the fish to a woman. She cut the fish while preparing dinner after she came back home. She found the toy soldier inside of the fish. The woman was surprised. "Oh, what is this?" She gave him to her daughter.
又過了一段時間，大魚被漁夫釣了上來。漁夫把魚賣給了一位女士。那位女士回家後開始准備晚餐，她將大魚切開。這時，她發現了魚腹中的玩具士兵。女士很是驚訝。“哦，這是什麼?”她把玩具士兵送給了女兒。
The girl took him to her room. At that moment, the toy soldier saw the beautiful paper ballerina. "Toy soldier, How did you come to this house?" They were so happy to meet again. The Ballerina said, "Frankly speaking, I like you. Stay here with me forever."
小女孩把玩具士兵帶到了自己的房間。突然間，玩具士兵看見了美麗的芭蕾舞女。“玩具士兵，你是怎麼來到這里的?”再次見面，他們都很高興。芭蕾舞女說，“其實，我很喜歡你。永遠在這里陪著我吧。”
The toy soldier was so happy when he heard that. But the naughty girl thought the toy soldier and the ballerina didn't make a good match.
聽到這句話玩具士兵高興壞了。但淘氣的小女孩覺得玩具士兵配不上芭蕾舞女。
"Oh, I hate the ugly toy soldier!" She threw him in to the fireplace. Flames were all over his body. "Good-bye, Ballerina!"
“噢，我不喜歡這個醜陋的玩具士兵!”她把他扔進了壁爐中。這時他全身都被火點燃了。“再見了，我親愛的'芭蕾舞女!”
At that moment, the wind blew and took the paper ballerina to the fireplace, too. The toy soldier and the ballerina were burned together.
就在這時，一陣風吹來，把紙做的芭蕾舞女也吹向了壁爐中。就這樣，玩具士兵和芭蕾舞女在烈火中相擁長眠。
The next morning, the woman found a heart-shaped piece of brass in the fireplace. It was the symbol of the toy soldier's and the ballerina's love.
第二天早上，女士在壁爐中發現一塊心形的銅塊。這象徵著玩具士兵和芭蕾舞女美好的愛情。
達蒙和皮西厄斯
A young man whose name was Pythias had done something which the tyrant Dionysius did not like. For this offence he was dragged to prison, and a day was set when he should be put to death. His home was far away, and he wanted very much to see his father and mother and friends before he died.
一個生輕人名叫皮西厄斯，做了一件暴君迪奧尼修斯不喜歡的事情。因為對暴君的冒犯，皮西厄斯被投進了監獄，還確定了被處死的日期。因為離家很遠，他非常想在臨死之前去看看父母和朋友們。
"Only give me leave to go home and say good-by to those whom I love," he said, "and then I will come back and give up my life."
“就讓我回去辭別我愛的人吧，”他說，“然後我會回來終結我的生命。”
The tyrant laughed at him.
暴君嘲笑他。
"How can I know that you will keep your promise?" he said. "You only want to cheat
me, and save yourself."
“我怎麼知道你會信守諾言?”他說。“你只想欺騙我.救你自己。”
Then a young man whose name was Darmon spoke and said.
這時一位名叫達蒙的年輕男子開口說:
"O king! Put me in prison in place of my friend Pythias, and let him go to his own country to put his affairs in order, and to bid his friends farewell. I know that he will come back as he promised, for he is a man who has never gone back on his word. But if he is not here on the day which you have set, then I will die in his stead."
“噢，國王!把我送進監獄，讓我代替我的朋友皮西厄斯，讓他回自己的國家，處理好事務，與他的朋友們告別吧。我知道他一定會信守諾言回來的，因為他是一個從不食言的人。但是，如果在你設定的那天，他沒有回到這里，我願替他去死。”
The tyrant was surprised that anybody should make such an offer. He at last agreed to let Pythias go, and gave orders that the young man Damon should be shut up in prison.
暴君很驚，竟然有人提出這樣的請求。他終於同意讓皮西厄斯回去，並下令把達蒙關進監獄。
Time passed, and by and by the day drew near which had been set for Pythias to die;and he had not come back. The tyrant ordered the jailer to keep close watch upon Darnon, and not let him escape. But Damon did not try to escape. He still had faith in the truth and honor of his friend. He said, "If Pythias does not come back in time, it will not be his fault.It will be because he is hindered against his will."
時間流逝，，日子一天天過去，離皮西厄斯的死期越來越近，而他還沒有回來。暴君命令獄吏嚴密監視達蒙，不讓他逃跑、但是達蒙並沒有試圖逃跑，他仍然相信他朋友的真誠和名譽。他說:“如果皮西厄斯沒有按時回來，那也不是他的錯，肯定是他受到了阻礙，違背了他的意願。”
At last the day came, and then the very hour. Damon was ready to die. His trust in his friend was as firm as ever; and he said that he did not grieve at having to suffer for one whom he loved so much.
這一天最終降臨，行刑的時間到了。達蒙准備接受死刑，但他對朋友的信任一如既往地堅定，他說他為一個他深愛的朋友遭受痛苦，他並不感到悲傷。
Then the jailer came to lead him to his death; but at the same moment Pythias stood in the door. He had been delayed by storms and shipwreck, and he had feared that he was too late. He greeted Damon kindly, and then gave himself into the hands of the jailer. He was happy because he thought that he had come in time, even though it was at the last moment.
獄卒准備帶他去行刑台，但就在這時，皮西厄斯出現在了門口。風暴和船舶失事使他延誤了行程.他害怕回來得太晚。他友好地向達蒙問候，之後把自己交到獄卒手中。他很高興，因為他認為他准時回來了，雖然是在最後一刻。
自私的巨人
Every afternoon, as they were coming from school, the children used to go and play in the Giant's garden.
每天下午，孩子們放學回來，總會去巨人的花園里玩耍。
It was a large lovely garden, with soft green grass. Here and there over the grass stood beautiful flowers like stars, and there were twelve peach-trees that in the spring-time broke out into delicate blossoms of pink and pearl, and in the autumn bore rich fruit. The birds sat on the trees and sang so sweetly that the children used to stop their games in order to listen to them. "How happy we are here!" they cried to each other.
這是一個可愛的大花園，長滿了柔嫩的青草。草叢間到處盛開著美麗的鮮花，如繁星點點。花園里還有十二棵桃樹，每到春天，粉紅色和珍珠色的花朵姣美誘人，到了秋天樹上果實累累。鳥兒棲息在枝頭動聽地唱著，孩子們都禁不住停止游戲，細心聆聽。“我們在這兒多麼快樂!”他們互相歡叫。
One day the Giant came back. 1-1e had been to visit his friend the Cornish ogre, and had stayed with him for seven years. After the seven years were over he had said all that he had to say, for his conversation was limited, and he determined to return to his own castle.When he arrived he saw the children playing in the garden.
有一天巨人回來了。他去拜訪康沃爾的怪物朋友，和他一起住了七年。七年結束了，巨人說完了想說的話，因為他的話總有個盡頭，他決定回到自己的城堡。當他到家的時候，看見孩子們正在花園里玩耍。
"What are you doing here?" he cried in a very gruff voice, and the children ran away.
“你們在這兒做什麼‘!”他非常粗暴地喊道，孩子們跑開了。
"My own garden is my own garden," said the Giant; "any one can understand that, and I will allow nobody to play in it but myself." So he built a high wall all round it, and put up a notice-board.
“我自己的花園就是我自己的，”巨人說道，“隨便什麼人都明白。除了我以外，我不允許任何人在花園里玩。”於是他在花園的四周砌起了高高的圍牆，支起一塊告示牌。

簡短的英語童話故事：
High and Lifted Up
It was a windy day.
The mailman barely made it to the front door. When the door opened, Mrs. Pennington said, "hello", but, before she had a real chance to say "thank you", the mail blew out of the mailman's hands, into the house and the front door slammed in his face. Mrs. Pennington ran to pick up the mail.
"Oh my," she said.
Tommy was watching the shutters open and then shut, open and then shut.
"Mom," he said, "may I go outside?"
"Be careful," she said. "It's so windy today."
Tommy crawled down from the window-seat and ran to the door. He opened it with a bang. The wind blew fiercely and snatched the newly recovered mail from Mrs. Pennington's hands and blew it even further into the house.
"Oh my," she said again. Tommy ran outside and the door slammed shut.
Outside, yellow, gold, and red leaves were leaping from swaying trees, landing on the roof, jumping off the roof, and then chasing one another down the street in tiny whirlwinds of merriment.
Tommy watched in fascination.
"If I was a leaf, I would fly clear across the world," Tommy thought and then ran out into the yard among the swirl of colors.
Mrs. Pennington came to the front porch.
"Tommy, I have your jacket. Please put it on."
However, there was no Tommy in the front yard.
"Tommy?"
Tommy was a leaf. He was blowing down the street with the rest of his play-mates.
A maple leaf came close-by, touched him and moved ahead. Tommy met him shortly, brushed against him, and moved further ahead. They swirled around and around, hit cars and poles, flew up into the air and then down again.
"This is fun," Tommy thought.
The maple leaf blew in front of him. It was bright red with well-defined veins. The sun-light shone through it giving it a brilliance never before seen by a little boy's eyes.
"Where do you think we are going?" Tommy asked the leaf.
"Does it matter?" the leaf replied. "Have fun. Life is short."
"I beg to differ," an older leaf said suddenly coming beside them. "The journey may be short, but the end is the beginning."
Tommy pondered this the best a leaf could ponder.
"Where do we end up?"
"If the wind blows you in that direction," the old leaf said, "you will end up in the city mp."
"I don't want that," Tommy said.
"If you are blown in that direction, you will fly high into the air and see things that no leaf has seen before."
"Follow me to the city mp," the maple leaf said. "Most of my friends are there."
The wind blew Tommy and the maple leaf along. Tommy thought of his choices. He wanted to continue to play.
"Okay," Tommy said, "I will go with you to the mp."
The winds shifted and Tommy and the leaf were blown in the direction of the city mp.
The old leaf didn't follow. He was blown further down the block and suddenly lifted up high into the air.
"Hey," he called out, "the sights up here. They are spectacular. Come and see."
Tommy and the maple leaf ignored him.
"I see something. I see the mp." The old leaf cried out. "I see smoke. Come up here. I see fire."
"I see nothing," the maple leaf said.
Tommy saw the fence that surrounded the city mp. He was happy to be with his friend. They would have fun in the mp.
Suddenly, a car pulled up. It was Tommy's mom. Mrs. Pennington wasn't about to let her little boy run into the city mp.
"Not so fast," she said getting out of the car. "You are not allowed to play in there. Don't you see the smoke?"
Tommy watched the maple leaf blow against the wall and struggle to get over. He ran over to get it but was unable to reach it.
Mrs. Pennington walked over and took the leaf. She put it in her pocket.
"There," she said, "it will be safe until we get home."
Tommy smiled, ran to the car and got in. He rolled down the back window and looked up into the sky. He wondered where the old leaf had gone. Perhaps one day he would see what the old leaf had seen - perhaps.

《狼和小羊》
Aesop’s Fables
The Wolf and the Lamb
Once upon a time a Wolf was lapping at a spring on a hillside, when, looking up, what should he see but a Lamb just beginning to drink a little lower down. ‘There’s my supper,’ thought he, ‘if only I can find some excuse to seize it.’ Then he called out to the Lamb, ‘How dare you muddle the water from which I am drinking?’
‘Nay, master, nay,’ said Lambikin; ‘if the water be muddy up there, I cannot be the cause of it, for it runs down from you to me.’
‘Well, then,’ said the Wolf, ‘why did you call me bad names this time last year?’
‘That cannot be,’ said the Lamb; ‘I am only six months old.’
‘I don’t care,’ snarled the Wolf; ‘if it was not you it was your father;’ and with that he rushed upon the poor little Lamb and .WARRA WARRA WARRA WARRA WARRA .ate her all up. But before she died she gasped out .’Any excuse will serve a tyrant.’

<狼和小羊>
狼來到小溪邊，看見小羊在那兒喝水。
狼想吃小羊，就故意找碴兒，說：“你把我喝的水弄臟了!你安地什麼心?”
小羊吃了一驚，溫和地說：“我怎麼會把您喝的水弄臟呢?您站在上游，水是從您那兒流到我這兒來的，不是從我這兒流到您那兒去的。”
狼氣沖沖地說：“就算這樣吧，你總是個壞傢伙!我聽說，去年你在背地裡說我的壞話!”
可憐的小羊喊道：“啊，親愛的狼先生，那是不可能的，去年我還沒有生下來哪!”
狼不想再爭辯了，齜著牙，逼近小羊，大聲嚷道：“你這個小壞蛋!說我壞話的不是你就是你爸爸，反正都

經典英語小故事（一）：
A mouse once took a bite out of a bull's tail as he lay dozing。 The bull jumped up in a rage and， with his head low to the ground， chased the mouse right across the yard。 The mouse was too quick for him， however， and slipped easily into a hole in the wall。
The bull charged the wall furiously again and again， but although he bruised his head and chipped his horns， the mouse stayed safely inside his hole。 After a time the bull gave up and sank down to rest again。
As soon as the bull was asleep， the little mouse crept to the mouth of the hole， pattered across the yard， bit the bull again -- this time on the nose -- and rushed back to safety。 As the bull roared helplessly the mouse squeaked:
"It's not always the big people who e off best。 Sometimes the small ones win， you know。"
老鼠和公牛
有一次，公牛躺著打盹，一隻老鼠咬了他的尾巴。公牛怒氣沖沖地跳起來，低著頭追老鼠，一向追過院子。然而，老鼠跑得比他快多了，從容地鑽到牆洞里去了。
公牛一次又一次地猛撞牆壁，盡管頭撞腫了，角撞裂了，老鼠卻安然待在洞里。過了一會兒，公牛不撞了，倒下歇著。
公牛剛睡著，小老鼠就爬到洞口，嗒嗒地跑過院子，又咬了公牛一口??這回咬了鼻子??又跑回安全的地方去。當公牛毫無辦法地吼叫時，老鼠吱吱叫道：
"大人物並不總占上風。有時小人物也會取勝。"
經典英語小故事（二）：
On a vacation trip， Duke Huan of the state of Qi came to the ruin of the capital of Guo Shi ， which perished long ago。
Seeing the desolate and bleak prospects of broken tiles， collapsed walls， and clusters of weeds， he could not help asking the local people about the reason of the ruin of Guo Shi。
They replied，"Guo Shi was fond of doing good deeds， and averse to evildoing， which led to the perdition。"
When the Duke could not understand the answer， people explained ，" Though he liked doing good， he had never been able to do so; though he hated evildoing， never could he help not participating。 That caused the ruin of his capital。"
郭氏之墟
齊桓公出遊途中，來到已經滅亡許久的郭氏都城的廢墟。
看到瓦礫殘垣、雜草叢生的蕭條景象，忍不住問當地百姓郭氏滅亡的原因。
百姓們回答說："郭氏由於喜愛善行善事。厭惡邪惡醜行而導致滅亡。"
齊桓公不能理解這種回答，百姓們便解釋說："郭氏雖然喜愛善行善事，但從來都不能做到;盡管厭惡邪惡醜行，卻總是忍不住參與其中。這就是他的都城變成廢墟的原因。"

鄉下老鼠就到城裡老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮，好吃的東西也為他們擺好了。可是正當他們要開始吃的時候，聽見很大的一陣響聲，城裡的老鼠叫喊起來：「快跑！快跑！貓來了！」他們飛快地跑開躲藏起來。
過了一會兒，他們出來了。當他們出來時，鄉下老鼠說：「我不喜歡住在城裡，我喜歡住在田野我的洞里。因為這樣雖然貧窮可是歡樂自在，比起雖然富有卻要過著提心吊膽的生活來說，要好些。

一隻狐狸失足掉到了井裡，不論他如何掙扎仍沒法爬上去，只好獃在那裡。公山羊覺得
口渴極了，來到這井邊，看見狐狸在井下，便問他井水好不好喝？狐狸覺得機會來了，心中
暗喜，立刻鎮靜下來，極力贊美井水好喝，說這水是天下第一泉，清甜爽口，並勸山羊趕快
下來，與他痛飲。一心只想喝水信以為真的山羊，便不假思索地跳了下去，當他咕咚咕咚痛
飲完後，就不得不與狐狸一齊共商上井的辦法。狐狸早有準備，他狡猾地說：「我倒有一個
方法 。你用前腳扒在井牆上，再把角豎直了，我從你後背跳上井去，再拉你上來，我們就都
得救了。」公山羊同意了他的提議，狐狸踩著他的後腳，跳到他背上，然後再從角上用力一
跳，跳出了井口。狐狸上去以後，准備獨自逃離。公山羊指責狐狸不信守諾言。狐狸回過頭
對公山羊說：「喂，朋友，你的頭腦如果像你的胡須那樣完美，你就不至於在沒看清出口之
前就盲目地跳下去。」
這故事說明，聰明的人應當事先研究清楚事情的結果，然後才去做。

"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。" On 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。
