5分钟左右英语故事：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分钟左右英语故事：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分钟左右英语故事：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.

The shop had also a castle made of paper. A beautiful paper ballerina stood in front of the castle gate.
这家商店也是一座用纸造筑的城堡。城堡门前站着一位纸做的美丽的芭蕾舞女。
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.
那位只有一条腿的玩具士兵很喜欢芭蕾舞女。他想邀她共舞，但是因为只有一条腿，他不好意思去邀请。
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，一个小女孩将芭蕾舞女买回家了。玩具士兵很伤心。那天晚上，大风呼呼的刮着。玩具士兵被大风吹落在街上。淘气的男孩子们发现了玩具士兵。
"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!这个玩具士兵只有一条腿。我们把他扔进河里吧，”于是男孩们把士兵扔到了河里。当玩具士兵顺着河水漂流时，一条大鱼游了过来张口把他吞进了嘴里。
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.
又过了一段时间，大鱼被渔夫钓了上来。渔夫把鱼卖给了一位女士。那位女士回家后开始准备晚餐，她将大鱼切开。这时，她发现了鱼腹中的玩具士兵。女士很是惊讶。“哦，这是什么?”她把玩具士兵送给了女儿。
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."
小女孩把玩具士兵带到了自己的房间。突然间，玩具士兵看见了美丽的芭蕾舞女。“玩具士兵，你是怎么来到这里的?”再次见面，他们都很高兴。芭蕾舞女说，“其实，我很喜欢你。永远在这里陪着我吧。”
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.
听到这句话玩具士兵高兴坏了。但淘气的小女孩觉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，我不喜欢这个丑陋的玩具士兵!”她把他扔进了壁炉中。这时他全身都被火点燃了。“再见了，我亲爱的'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.
就在这时，一阵风吹来，把纸做的芭蕾舞女也吹向了壁炉中。就这样，玩具士兵和芭蕾舞女在烈火中相拥长眠。
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，女士在壁炉中发现一块心形的铜块。这象征着玩具士兵和芭蕾舞女美好的爱情。
达蒙和皮西厄斯
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.
一个生轻人名叫皮西厄斯，做了一件暴君迪奥尼修斯不喜欢的事情。因为对暴君的冒犯，皮西厄斯被投进了监狱，还确定了被处死的日期。因为离家很远，他非常想在临死之前去看看父母和朋友们。
"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."
“就让我回去辞别我爱的人吧，”他说，“然后我会回来终结我的生命。”
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."
“我怎么知道你会信守诺言?”他说。“你只想欺骗我.救你自己。”
Then a young man whose name was Darmon spoke and said.
这时一位名叫达蒙的年轻男子开口说:
"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，国王!把我送进监狱，让我代替我的朋友皮西厄斯，让他回自己的国家，处理好事务，与他的朋友们告别吧。我知道他一定会信守诺言回来的，因为他是一个从不食言的人。但是，如果在你设定的那天，他没有回到这里，我愿替他去死。”
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.
暴君很惊，竟然有人提出这样的请求。他终于同意让皮西厄斯回去，并下令把达蒙关进监狱。
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."
时间流逝，，日子一天天过去，离皮西厄斯的死期越来越近，而他还没有回来。暴君命令狱吏严密监视达蒙，不让他逃跑、但是达蒙并没有试图逃跑，他仍然相信他朋友的真诚和名誉。他说:“如果皮西厄斯没有按时回来，那也不是他的错，肯定是他受到了阻碍，违背了他的意愿。”
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.
这一天最终降临，行刑的时间到了。达蒙准备接受死刑，但他对朋友的信任一如既往地坚定，他说他为一个他深爱的朋友遭受痛苦，他并不感到悲伤。
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.
狱卒准备带他去行刑台，但就在这时，皮西厄斯出现在了门口。风暴和船舶失事使他延误了行程.他害怕回来得太晚。他友好地向达蒙问候，之后把自己交到狱卒手中。他很高兴，因为他认为他准时回来了，虽然是在最后一刻。
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，孩子们放学回来，总会去巨人的花园里玩耍。
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.
这是一个可爱的大花园，长满了柔嫩的青草。草丛间到处盛开着美丽的鲜花，如繁星点点。花园里还有十二棵桃树，每到春天，粉红色和珍珠色的花朵姣美诱人，到了秋天树上果实累累。鸟儿栖息在枝头动听地唱着，孩子们都禁不住停止游戏，细心聆听。“我们在这儿多么快乐!”他们互相欢叫。
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.
有一天巨人回来了。他去拜访康沃尔的怪物朋友，和他一起住了七年。七年结束了，巨人说完了想说的话，因为他的话总有个尽头，他决定回到自己的城堡。当他到家的时候，看见孩子们正在花园里玩耍。
"What are you doing here?" he cried in a very gruff voice, and the children ran away.
“你们在这儿做什么‘!”他非常粗暴地喊道，孩子们跑开了。
"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.
“我自己的花园就是我自己的，”巨人说道，“随便什么人都明白。除了我以外，我不允许任何人在花园里玩。”于是他在花园的四周砌起了高高的围墙，支起一块告示牌。

简短的英语童话故事：
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>
狼来到小溪边，看见小羊在那儿喝水。
狼想吃小羊，就故意找碴儿，说：“你把我喝的水弄脏了!你安地什么心?”
小羊吃了一惊，温和地说：“我怎么会把您喝的水弄脏呢?您站在上游，水是从您那儿流到我这儿来的，不是从我这儿流到您那儿去的。”
狼气冲冲地说：“就算这样吧，你总是个坏家伙!我听说，去年你在背地里说我的坏话!”
可怜的小羊喊道：“啊，亲爱的狼先生，那是不可能的，去年我还没有生下来哪!”
狼不想再争辩了，龇着牙，逼近小羊，大声嚷道：“你这个小坏蛋!说我坏话的不是你就是你爸爸，反正都

经典英语小故事（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，公牛躺着打盹，一只老鼠咬了他的尾巴。公牛怒气冲冲地跳起来，低着头追老鼠，一向追过院子。然而，老鼠跑得比他快多了，从容地钻到墙洞里去了。
公牛一次又一次地猛撞墙壁，尽管头撞肿了，角撞裂了，老鼠却安然待在洞里。过了一会儿，公牛不撞了，倒下歇着。
公牛刚睡着，小老鼠就爬到洞口，嗒嗒地跑过院子，又咬了公牛一口??这回咬了鼻子??又跑回安全的地方去。当公牛毫无办法地吼叫时，老鼠吱吱叫道：
"大人物并不总占上风。有时小人物也会取胜。"

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。"

口渴极了，来到这井边，看见狐狸在井下，便问他井水好不好喝？狐狸觉得机会来了，心中
暗喜，立刻镇静下来，极力赞美井水好喝，说这水是天下第一泉，清甜爽口，并劝山羊赶快
下来，与他痛饮。一心只想喝水信以为真的山羊，便不假思索地跳了下去，当他咕咚咕咚痛
饮完后，就不得不与狐狸一齐共商上井的办法。狐狸早有准备，他狡猾地说：“我倒有一个
方法 。你用前脚扒在井墙上，再把角竖直了，我从你后背跳上井去，再拉你上来，我们就都
得救了。”公山羊同意了他的提议，狐狸踩着他的后脚，跳到他背上，然后再从角上用力一
跳，跳出了井口。狐狸上去以后，准备独自逃离。公山羊指责狐狸不信守诺言。狐狸回过头
对公山羊说：“喂，朋友，你的头脑如果像你的胡须那样完美，你就不至于在没看清出口之
前就盲目地跳下去。”
这故事说明，聪明的人应当事先研究清楚事情的结果，然后才去做。

Wolf， meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold， resolved not to lay violent hands on him， but to find some plea， which should justify to the Lamb himself his 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。" 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。
