题目是Mary has a little lamb 玛丽有一头小羔羊
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 !
玛丽与丈夫迪米特里住在希腊南部一个叫波拉考拉的小村庄里。玛丽最珍贵的财产之一就是丈夫送给她的一只白色小羔羊。白天，玛丽把羔羊拴在地里的一棵树上。每天晚上把它牵回家。可是，一天晚上，那只小羔羊失踪了。绳子被人割断，很明显小羔羊是被人偷走了。
迪米特里从地里回来，妻子把情况跟他一说，他马上出去找偷羔羊的人。他知道在这样一个小村庄里抓住小偷并不困难。把失窃的事告诉几个朋友后，迪米特里发现他的邻居阿列科家突然多了一只小羔羊。迪米特里立刻去了阿列科家，气呼呼地指责他偷了羔羊，告诉他最好把羊交还，否则就去叫警察。阿列科不承认，并把迪米特里领进院子。不错，他的确刚买了一只羔羊，阿列科解释说，但他的羔羊是黑色的。迪米特里为自己的鲁莽而感到不好意思，向阿列科道了歉，说是错怪了他。就在他俩说话的时候，天下起了雨，迪米特里便呆在阿列科家里避雨，一直等到雨停为止。半小时后，当他从屋里出来时，他惊奇地发现小黑羔羊全身几乎都变成了白色。原来羊毛上染的黑色被雨水冲掉了！

㈢ 九年级英语书中的嫦娥奔月的故事
相传在远古的时候，天上突然出现了十个太阳，使老百姓无法生活。有一个力大无比的人叫后羿。他决定要帮助老百姓，于是他登上昆仑山顶，用他的神弓射下了九个太阳。还对剩下的那个太阳说：“从今以后，你每天必须按时升起，按时落下，为民造福!”
后羿帮助了老百姓，大家都很敬重他。很多人拜他为师，跟他学习武艺。有个叫逢蒙的，为人奸诈贪婪，也拜了后羿为师。后羿的妻子叫嫦娥，是个美丽善良的女子。她经常帮助生活贫苦的乡亲，乡亲们都很喜欢她。有一天，昆仑山的西王母送给后羿一丸仙药。人吃了这种仙药，可以长生不老，还可以升天成仙。但是后羿不愿意离开嫦娥，就让她将仙药藏在百宝匣里。
这件事却被逢蒙看到了，他想把后羿的仙药弄到手。八月十清晨，后羿要带弟子出门去，逢蒙假装生病，留下来了。到了晚上，逢蒙手提宝剑闯进后羿家里，威逼嫦娥把仙药交出来。嫦娥想不能让这样的人吃了长生不老药。于是，她与逢蒙周旋。逢蒙见嫦娥不肯交出仙药，就自己到处找。眼看就要搜到百宝匣了，嫦娥疾步向前，取出仙药，一口吞了下去。嫦娥吃了仙药之后，飘飘悠悠地飞了起来。她飞出了窗子，嫦娥一直朝着月亮飞去。
等后羿回来，不见了妻子嫦娥。他焦急地冲出门外，只见皓月当空，圆圆的月亮上树影婆娑，一只玉兔在树下跳来跳去。他的妻子正站在一棵桂树旁深情地望着他。后羿一边呼唤，一边朝着月亮追去。可是他向前追三步，月亮就向后退三步，怎么也追不上。乡亲们也想念嫦娥，便在院子里摆上嫦娥平日爱吃的食物。从此以后，每年八月十五，就成了人们团圆的中秋佳节。

《简·爱》：人生追求的二重奏
《简·爱》是一部自传成分很浓的小说，虽然书中的故事是虚构的，但是女主人公以及其他许多人物的生活、环境，甚至许多生活细节，都是取自作者及其周围人的真实经验。作者夏洛蒂·勃朗特1816年生于英国北部的一个牧师家庭。母亲早逝，八岁的夏洛蒂被送进一所寄宿学校。在那里生活条件极其恶劣，她的两个姐姐因染上肺病而先后死去。于是夏洛蒂和妹妹艾米利回到家乡，在荒凉的约克郡山区度过了童年。15岁时她进了伍勒小姐办的学校读书，几年后又在这个学校当教师。后来她曾作家庭教师，但因不能忍受贵妇人、阔小姐对家庭教师的歧视和刻薄，放弃了家庭教师的谋生之路。她曾打算自办学校，为此她在姨母的资助下与艾米利一起去意大利进修法语和德语。然而由于没有人来就读，学校没能办成。但是她在意大利学习的经历激发了她表现自我的强烈愿望，促使她投身于文学创作的道路
《简·爱》写于1846年，是夏洛蒂的第二部小说。她借一个出身寒微的年轻女子奋斗的经历，抒发了自己胸中的积愫，深深打动了当时的读者。小说于1847年秋以柯勒·贝尔的笔名发表，随即在次年又相继两次再版。这位名不见经传的作者，夏洛蒂·勃朗特，由此进入英国著名小说家的行列。
相关练习
1、《简·爱》的作者是英国女作家夏洛蒂·勃郎特。
2、《简·爱》以第一人称叙述，主人公简·爱是孤女，成年后到桑菲尔德贵族庄园当家庭教师，她以真挚的情感和高尚的品德赢得了东家罗切斯特的尊敬和爱恋。
3、《简·爱》主人公简·爱的人生追求由两个基本“旋律”构成，首先，她富于激情、幻想和反抗精神，是浪漫主义文学传统的精神女儿。另一方面她又追求超越个人幸福的至高境界。“旅行”、“求索”是贯穿小说的比喻。对人间自由幸福的渴念和对更高精神境界的追求是女主人公的两个基本动机。

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."

老猫
一位老妇有只猫，这只猫很老，它跑不快了，也咬不了东西，因为它年纪太大了。一天，老猫发现一只老鼠，它跳过去抓这只老鼠，然而，它咬不住这只老鼠。因此，老鼠从它的嘴边溜掉了，因为老猫咬不了它。
于是，老妇很生气，因为老猫没有把老鼠咬死。她开始打这只猫，猫说：“不要打你的老仆人，我已经为你服务了很多年，而且还愿意为你效劳，但是，我实在太老了，对年纪大的不要这么无情，要记
住老年人在年青时所做过的有益的事情。”
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.

他继续走，来到河边，河涨水了，因此，他到不了河对岸，他等了一会儿，然后他说：“今天我去不了富人家了，因为我不能渡过河。”
他开始回家，那天他没有吃东西。他就开始去找吃的，他找到苹果，很高兴地把它们从尘土中翻出来吃了。
不要把好东西扔掉，换个时候你会觉得它们大有用处。
The Rain
A small boy and his father were having a walk in the country when it suddenly began to rain very hard． They did not have their umbrella with them， and there was nowhere to hide from the rain， so they were soon very wet， and the small boy did not feel very happy．
For a long time while they were walking home through the rain， the boy was thinking． Then at last he turned to his father and said to him，“Why does it rain， Father？ It isn't very nice， is it？”
“No， it isn't very nice， but it's very useful，Tom，”answered his father．“It rains to make the fruit and the vegetables grow for us， and to make the grass grow for the cows and sheep．”
Tom thought about this for a few seconds， and then he said，“Then，why does it rain on the road too， Father？”

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. 总的来说在中国最重要的节日是春节,亦称中国新年。对中国人民来说它的重要性就如方圣诞节对于西方人民。这个一年一次的节日日期取决于阴历而不是格里历，因此假日的时间变化从一月下旬到上旬2月。对普通的中国人，节日总是在除夕夜开始,结束于阴历的第一个月的第五天。 但1第一个月的15号，通常称灯会，在国家的大部分地区意味春节的正式结尾。
The Wolf and the Crane狼与鹭鸶
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（预报）the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大气）, because this is where the weather forms（形成）. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（气象学家）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（比较）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，河阳的北面，有两座巍峨的大山，一座是太行，一座是王屋，方圆七百里，有万丈高。 山的北边住着年近90的愚公。由于家门被山挡住，每次外出全家人都要绕过大山，多走很多路。 一天，愚公把全家人召集到一起，商量着把两座大山移走。妻子说：“凭你的力量，连一座小山丘也移不走，何况这两座大山呢？再说，你就是能移走，那土石往哪里放呢？”愚公说：“渤海那么大，可以把土石扔到渤海里去。” 说干就干，愚公带领子孙们挖起山来。河曲的智叟看见了，笑着阻止道：“你真是太傻了！以你的残年余力，连山上的一根草都动不了，更何况大山？”愚公叹了口气说：“你错了。你想想，我死了以后还有我的儿子，我的儿子又有儿子，子子孙孙没有穷尽！可是山上的土石不会增加，还怕挖不走吗？” 愚公移山的事很快被玉皇大帝知道了。玉帝被愚公坚韧不拔的精神所感动，便派大力神把两座大山背走了。 这个故事告诉我们：只要有决心，有毅力，再难的事情也能办成。

扔掉的亚麻的故事
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.

钉子的故事
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."

一个商人在集市上生意红火,他卖完了所有的货,钱袋装得满满的。他想天黑前赶到家,便把钱箱捆在了马背上,骑着马儿出发了。
中午时分,他到了一个镇上休息了一会。当他想继续赶路时,马童牵出马来对他说:“老爷,马后腿的蹄铁上需要加颗钉子。”“由它去吧,”商人回答说,“这块蹄铁肯定能撑到走完这六里路,我要急着赶路呢!”
下午时候,他又一次叫人喂马,马童走进房间对他说:“老爷,马后腿上的一块蹄铁掉了,要不要我把它带到铁匠那去呢?”“由它去吧!”商人回答说,“这马一定能坚持走完这剩下的几里路,我时间紧着呢!”
他骑着马儿继续往前走,但不久以后马就开始一步一瘸的了,再过会儿就开始踉踉跄跄,最后它终於跌倒在地,折断了腿。那生意人只好扔下他的马,解下钱箱扛在背上,步行回家。等赶回家时已是午夜时分,只听他嘀咕着:“都是那颗该死的钉子把我给害惨了。”
