One day the wind said to the sun, 「Look at that man walking along the road. I can get his cloak off more quickly than you can.」
「We will see about that,」 said the sun. 「I will let you try first.」
So the wind tried to make the man take off his cloak. He blew and blew, but the man only pulled his cloak more closely around himself.
「I give up,」 said the wind at last. 「I cannot get his cloak off.」 Then the sun tried. He shone as hard as he could. The man soon became hot and took off his cloak.

初一短篇英語美文篇一
Women in Colonial North America
The status of women in colonial North America has been well studied and described and can bebriefly summarized. Throughout the colonial period there was a marked shortage of women,which varied with the regions and was always greatest in the frontier areas. This favorableratio enhanced women's status and position and allowed them to pursue different careers.
The Puritans, the religious sect that dominated the early british colonies in North America,regarded idleness as a sin, and believed that life in an underdeveloped country made itabsolutely necessary that each member of the community perform an economic function.
Thus work for women, married or single, was not only approved, it was regarded as a civic ty.Puritan town councils expected idows and unattached women to be self supporting and for along time provided needy spinsters with parcels of land. There was no social sanction againstmarried women working; on the contrary, wives were expected to help their husbands in theirtrade and won social approval for doing extra work in or out of the home. Needy children, girlsas well as boys, were indentured or apprenticed and were expected to work for their keep.
The vast majority of women worked within their homes, where their labor proced mostarticles needed for the family. The entire colonial proction of cloth and clothing and partiallythat of shoes was in the hands of women. In addition to these occupations, women werefound in many different kinds of employment. They were butchers, silversmiths, gunsmiths anpholsterers. They ran mills, plantations, tanyards, shipyards, and every kind of shop, tavern,and boardinghouse. They were gatekeepers, jail keepers, sextons, journalists, printers,apothecaries, midwives, nurses, and teachers.
北美殖民時期的婦女
北美殖民時期女性的社會地位曾得到過深入研究和描述，並可簡短概括。 整個殖民時期，女性人數明顯不足，各地情況不盡相同，在邊遠地區尤其缺少。 這種對女性有利的比例提高了她們的社會地位和職位，使她們能追求不同的事業。 清教徒是早期英屬殖民地的宗教主流。 它視懶惰為犯罪，認為在不發達農村社區的每一個成員都必須發揮經濟作用。 所以已婚或單身女性工作不僅是許可的，而且被認為是公民的義務。 清教徒的鎮議會認為寡婦和未婚女性也應該自食其力，而且在相當長一段時期里，向貧困的老而未婚的女子提供土地。 社會不反對已婚婦女工作;相反，要求她們幫助丈夫從事他們的行當。在家庭內外做額外勞動的妻子們會得到社會的贊同。貧困的兒童，女孩和男孩一樣，也要簽師徒契約做學徒，想保住這個生計就要工作。 絕大多數女性在家庭里勞動，生產大部分家用必需品。 殖民時期全部的布料和衣服以及一部分的鞋都出自女性的雙手。 除了從事這些職業，婦女也從事許多不同類型的職業，如做屠夫、鐵匠、軍械工和傢俱修理工。 她們經營手工作坊、種植園、製革場、造船廠和各類商店、小旅館和供膳寄宿處。 她們當守門人或獄卒，教堂司事、記者、印刷工、葯劑師、助產士、護士和教師。

The Definition of "Price"
Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which proctsand services that are in limited supply are rationed among buyers. The price system of theUnited States is a complex network composed of the prices of all the procts bought andsold in the economy as well as those of a myriad of services, including labor, professional,transportation, and public-utility services. The interrelationships of all these prices make upthe "system" of prices. The price of any particular proct or service is linked to a broad,complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less uponeverything else. If one were to ask a group of randomly selected indivials to define "price",many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a proctor service or, in other words, that price is the money value of a proct or service as agreepon in a market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far as it goes. For acomplete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the amountof money involved must be known. Both the buyer and the seller should be familiar with notonly the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the proct or service to beexchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will bemade, the form of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that apply to thetransaction, guarantees on the proct or service, delivery terms, return privileges, and otherfactors. In other words, both buyer and seller should be fully aware of all the factors thatcomprise the total "package" being exchanged for the asked-for amount of money in order thatthey may evaluate a given price.

The Beginning of Drama
There are many theories about the beginning of drama in ancient Greece. The one most widelyaccepted today is based on the assumption that drama evolved from ritual. The argument forthis view goes as follows. In the beginning, human beings viewed the natural forces of the world- even the seasonal changes - as unpredictable, and they sought through various means tocontrol these unknown and feared powers. Those measures which appeared to bring thedesired results were then retained and repeated until they hardened into fixed rituals. Eventuallystories arose which explained or veiled the mysteries of the rites. As time passed some ritualswere abandoned, but the stories, later called myths, persisted and provided material for art anddrama.
Those who believe that drama evolved out of ritual also argue that those rites contained theseed of theater because music, dance, masks, and costumes were almost always used.Furthermore, a suitable site had to be provided for performances and when the entirecommunity did not participate, a clear division was usually made between the "acting area"and the "auditorium." In addition, there were performers, and, since considerable importancewas attached to avoiding mistakes in the enactment of rites, religious leaders usually assumedthat task. Wearing masks and costumes, they often impersonated other people, animals, orsupernatural beings, and mimed the desired effect -- success in hunt or battle, the comingrain, the revival of the Sun -- as an actor might. Eventually such dramatic representations wereseparated from religious activities.
Another theory traces the theater's origin from the human interest in storytelling. According tothis view tales (about the hunt, war, or other feats) are graally elaborated, at first throughthe use of impersonation, action, and dialogue by a narrator and then through theassumption of each of the roles by a different person. A closely related theory traces theaterto those dances that are primarily rhythmical and gymnastic or that are imitations of animalmovements and sounds.
戲劇的起源
關於古希臘戲劇的起源存在著多種理論，其中一個最普遍為人接受的理論假設認為戲劇從儀式演化而來。 這個觀點是這樣進行論證的：一開始，人類把世界上的自然力量，甚至季節的變化都看成是不可預料的。 他們試圖通過各種方式去控制這些未知的、令人恐懼的力量。 那些似乎帶來了滿意結果的手段就被保留下來並且重復直到這些手段固化為不變的儀式，最後產生了能夠解釋或者掩蓋這些儀式神秘性的故事。 隨著時間的推移，一些儀式被廢棄了，但這些後來被稱作神話的故事流傳下來並且為藝術和戲劇提供了素材。
認為戲劇從儀式演化而來的人們還認為那些儀式包含了戲劇的基本因素，因為音樂、舞蹈、面具和服裝幾乎經常被使用，而且，必須為演出提供一個合適的地點;如果不是整個社區共同參加演出，經常在"演出區"和"觀眾席"之間劃分出明顯的分界。 另外，儀式中還有演員，而且宗教領袖通常承擔演出任務，因為在儀式的執行中避免錯誤的發生被認為有相當大的重要性;他們經常帶著面具，穿著服裝象演員那樣扮演其它人、動物或超自然的生靈，用動作來表演以達到所需要的效果，比如打獵的成功或戰斗的勝利、將至的雨、太陽的復活。 最後這些戲劇性的表演從宗教活動中分離了出來。 另一個追溯戲劇起源的理論認為它來自人們對敘述故事的興趣。 根據這個觀點，故事(關於狩獵、戰爭或者其它偉績)是逐漸豐富起來的。 首先通過一個講解人來運用模仿、表演和對話，然後再由不同的人扮演各自的角色;另一個與之緊密相關的理論將戲劇的起源追溯至舞蹈，這些舞蹈大體上是有節奏感的和體操式的那一類，或者是對動物動作和聲音的模仿。

During the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC), prince Zhou Xu of the State of Wei killed his brother and became the new emperor. Zhou Xu was a tyrant. He oppressed his people and inlged in wars of agGREssion. By launching wars, he tried to divert the people's attention and rece their discontent with him in order to consolidate his dictatorship.
The Duke of the State of Lu leant about Zhou Xu's usurpation of state power and his ambitious plan, he asked a senior official, "What do you think about Zhou Xu's move? "The official answered, "He inlges in wars , bringing his people much disaster. He won't get their support. And he's capricious, so few of his close friends follow him. He can never achieve his success. In addition, war is like fire. If one launches wars endlessly without restraint, he'll eventually burn himself. "

Later, people use it to mean that those who do evil will finally ruin themselves.

初一英語短文故事帶翻譯：塞翁失馬
Near China's northern borders lived a man well versed in the practices of Taoism. His horse, for no reason at all, got into the territory of the northern tribes. Everyone commiserated with him.
"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing," said his father.
After a few months, his animal came back, leading a fine horse from the north. Everyone congratulated him.
"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a cause of misfortune," said his father.
Since he was well-off and kept good horses his son became fond of riding and eventually broke his thigh bone falling from a horse. Everyone commiserated with him.
"Perhaps this will soon turn out to be a blessing," said his father.
One year later, the northern tribes started a big invasion of the border regions. All able-bodied young men took up arms and fought against the invaders, and as a result, around the border nine out of ten men died. This man's son did not join in the fighting because he was crippled and so both the boy and his father survived.
戰國時期，靠近北部邊城，住著一個老人，名叫塞翁。塞翁養了許多馬，一天，他的馬群中忽然有一匹走失了。鄰居們聽說這件事，跑來安慰，勸他不必太著急，年齡大了，多注意身體。塞翁見有人勸慰，笑了笑說：“丟了一匹馬損失不大，沒准會帶來什麼福氣呢。”
鄰居聽了塞翁的話，心裡覺得很好笑。馬丟了，明明是件壞事，他卻認為也許是好事，顯然是自我安慰而已。過了幾天，丟失的馬不僅自動返回家，還帶回一匹匈奴的駿馬。
鄰居聽說了，對塞翁的預見非常佩服，向塞翁道賀說：“還是您有遠見，馬不僅沒有丟，還帶回一匹好馬，真是福氣呀。”
塞翁聽了鄰人的祝賀，反而一點高興的樣子都沒有，憂慮地說：“白白得了一匹好馬，不一定是什麼福氣，也許惹出什麼麻煩來。”
鄰居們以為他故作姿態純屬老年人的狡猾。心裡明明高興，有意不說出來。
塞翁有個獨生子，非常喜歡騎馬。他發現帶回來的那匹馬顧盼生姿，身長蹄大，嘶鳴嘹亮，膘悍神駿，一看就知道是匹好馬。他每天都騎馬出遊，心中洋洋得意。
一天，他高興得有些過火，打馬飛奔，一個趔趄，從馬背上跌下來，摔斷了腿。鄰居聽說，紛紛來慰問。
塞翁說：“沒什麼，腿摔斷了卻保住性命，或許是福氣呢。”鄰居們覺得他又在胡言亂語。他們想不出，摔斷腿會帶來什麼福氣。
不久，匈奴兵大舉入侵，青年人被應征入伍，塞翁的兒子因為摔斷了腿，不能去當兵。入伍的青年都戰死了，唯有塞翁的兒子保全了性命。
初一英語短文故事帶翻譯：畫餅充飢
This idiom comes from Records of Three Kingdoms• Kingdom of Wei • Biography of Lu Yu. When Lu Yu, the minister of the State of Wei was young, his parents and brothers all died one after another, and he became an orphan. In such a difficult situation, he still studied very hard. Finally he became a talented person and served as a high officialof hisstate.Hewassouprightin performing his official ties that he was promoted to the minister of the Board of Civil Office, in charge of the officials' appointments and removals.
Owing to the vacancy of Lu Yu's original post, it had to fill up a new official for it. Although there were many officials to recommend some well-known people for the post, all were refused by Emperor Wen. He only let Lu Yu do it and also pointed out:"It depends on you whether we can find the right person for the important post. But we can't choose someone only with fame in stead of his real ability. You see, the fame is just like drawing cakes on the ground to allay hungry."
Then Lu expressed his idea:" You are right, YourMajesty, selections should depend on their real learning and abilities. But the real fame is still very important, such as self-possession and high moral character. So we should select people with both of them."
Now we use it to describe comforting oneself with unrealistic thoughts, without solving practical problemsand feeding on illusions.
此語出自《三國志•魏志•盧毓傳》。三國時代,魏國的大臣盧毓,自幼父母雙亡,兩位兄長又先後去世,他成了孤兒。但他刻苦學習,終於成了很有才學的人,而且做了朝廷大臣。他為官清正、廉潔,因而連連提升,後被任命為吏部尚書,負責官吏的任免。
盧毓升任吏部尚書後,他原擔任的中書郎職務空缺,需要選拔人補上,當時有很多大臣都推薦一些有名氣的人來擔任,但都被魏文帝拒絕了。魏文帝曹睿要盧毓選好這個官,並對他說:“這次選拔中書郎,能否選到合適的人,就看你了。千萬不要選那些只有虛名而沒有真才實學的人,虛名就像在地上畫的餅,是不能充飢的。”
盧毓對此說出了他的意見:“陛下說得很對,選拔不能只看名氣,但名氣也能反映一定的實際情況,如果是修養、才學都好而有名氣就不應該嫌棄,主要看他們是否有真才實學。”
