英語小故事演講1

in the matter of courage we all have our limits. there never was a hero who did not have his bounds. i suppose it may be said of nelson and all the others whose courage has been advertised that there came times in their lives when their bravery knew it had come to its limit.

i have found mine a good many times. sometimes this was expected--often it was unexpected. i know a man who is not afraid to sleep with a rattle-snake, but you could not get him to sleep with a safety-razor.

i never had the courage to talk across a long, narrow room. i should be at the end of the room facing all the audience. if i attempt to talk across a room i find myself turning this way and that, and thus at alternate periods i have part of the audience behind me. you ought never to have any part of the audience behind you; you never can tell what they are going to do.

i'll sit down.

something for the people of his town. but first he wanted to find out whether they deserved his help. so he placed a very large stone in the center of the main road into town. then he hid behind a tree and waited. soon an old man came along with his cow.

the young man then began to move the stone. he pushed and pulled with all his strength to move it to one side. but imagine his

surprise when under the stone he found a bag full of money and this message: this money is for the thoughtful person who removes this stone from the road. that person deserves help.

第一次與最後一次

喬治35歲時買了架小型飛機，並開始學習駕駛。不久，他就能很嫺熟地駕機做各種各樣的特技飛行了。

喬治有個朋友名叫馬克。一天，喬治主動邀請馬克乘他的飛機上天兜一圈。馬克心想，“我乘大客機飛行過好幾次，還從來沒有乘過小飛機，我不妨試一試。”

升空後，喬治飛了有半個小時，在空中做了各種各樣的飛行特技。

後來他們着陸了。馬克很高興能夠安全返回地面。他用顫抖的聲音對他的朋友說：“喬治，非常感謝你讓我乘小飛機做了兩次飛行。”

喬治非常吃驚地問：“兩次飛行？”

“是的，我的第一次和最後一次。”馬克答道。

an indian farmer and a lion

獅子和農夫

有一個印度的農夫跟他的小孩子出去耕田，當耕完了以後，天快要黑了，他就跟小孩說：「哇！天快黑了！不行、不行了！快收東西，快點走，我們趕快走吧！」

小孩說：「哎呀！你別緊張嘛！回家的路不遠，而且我們也知道路，你幹什麼這麼緊張呢？」農夫說：「不行啊！你不知道啊！我什麼都不怕，我不怕老虎、不怕獅子，我最怕那個「晚上」！只要「晚上」一來，我就軟趴趴。那個「晚上」最恐怖了，我好怕、好怕，我受不了！」it so happened that a lion was hiding nearby and overheard their conversation. whats this thing called the nighthow could it be more fearful than i ami must find out about it, the lion mused as it moved closer to the farmer, hoping to learn more about this night that was even more frightening than itself.

剛好有一隻獅子躲在旁邊聽到了，它就想：「這個「晚上」是什麼東西？它怎麼可能比我還恐怖呢？我倒要試試看！」它就靠近農夫，想查看「晚上」是什麼種類的東西，竟然比獅子還要恐怖。

那個時候天已經黑了，那個農夫有老花眼，看不清楚，只看到一個動物跑過來靠近他，認爲是他那頭剛剛走掉的驢子，就打它幾下，說：「找你整天找不到，去哪裏了？現在纔回來！」這隻獅子心想：「完了！我怎麼那麼笨，跑來靠近「這個」，剛剛打我就是叫「晚上」的東

西吧！好恐怖啊！現在怎麼辦呢？」它在想的時候，農夫又打了它好幾下，催它趕快回家去，這隻獅子怕死了，就跟着農夫走回去。

it was even darker when they reached home. since the farmer continued to mistake the lion for his donkey, he tied it in a corner outside his house before he went to bed. that night, the lion stayed out in the cold, starving, petrified and not knowing what to expect of the night when morning dawned. it believed that the farmer was the night.

回家時天更黑了，因爲農夫認爲是他的驢子，就把獅子綁在屋外的角落邊，然後進去睡覺。那隻獅子在那邊又餓又冷整個晚上，又害怕，不曉得明天早上那個「晚上」會再對待它怎麼樣？它認爲農夫就是所謂的「晚上」。

early the next morning, before dawn broke, the farmer got up and took his donkey to the fields. on the way, another lion passed by and found it hilarious to see a lion obediently following a farmer. it then approached the captive lion and asked, what are you doingwhy are you walking behind this man

隔天一大早，天還不怎麼亮的時候，農夫已經起來了，出門帶那頭「驢子」要去耕田。走到半路時，剛好有另外一隻獅子經過，它看到這隻獅子乖乖地跟着農夫走在後面，就感覺到好笑，它靠近這隻獅子，問：「你做什麼啦？爲什麼跟着那個人的後面走呢？」

被綁的獅子說：「噓！你不要那麼吵，趕快離開！你不知道前面走的那個，就是叫「晚上」的東西，他很恐怖啊，昨天我被他打，然後被綁了整個晚上又餓又冷，現在不曉得要帶我到哪裏去。你趕快跑，不然的話你生命難保啊！」

另外那隻獅子聽說這樣，就說：「你真好笑，你笨蛋！你是獅子、是動物之王啊！你被騙了！你現在吼他一聲，就知道誰才恐怖。」果然，這隻獅子聽它的話大吼一聲以後，那個農夫就靠過來看，現在天亮了，一看是隻獅子，哇！跑得要命。然後這隻獅子就自由了。篇三：國中生英文小故事_1

狼和羊

很久很久以前，這裏有一隻狼。他受傷了。他不能外出捕食。他感到又餓又渴，這時，他看見一隻羊。“你給我一點水解渴”，他說，“我就能自己去尋找食物了。” “是呀”，羊回答說，“如果我給你送水喝，那麼我就會成爲你的食物。”

“我沒有購物袋，就用你的帽子吧。”

zeal should not outrun discretion.

有隻鴿子口渴得很難受，看見畫板上畫着一個水瓶，以爲是真的。他立刻呼呼地猛飛過去，不料一頭碰撞在畫板上，折斷了翅膀，摔在地上，被人輕易地捉住了。

這是說，有些人想急於得到所需的東西，一時衝動，草率從事，就會身遭不幸。the raven and the swan烏鴉和天鵝

a raven saw a swan and desired to secure for himself the same beautiful plumage. supposing that the swans splendid white color arose from his washing in the water in which he swam, the raven left the altars in the

neighborhood where he picked up his living, and took up residence in the lakes and pools. but cleansing his feathers as often as he would, he could not change their color, while through want of food he perished.

change of habit cannot alter nature.

烏鴉非常羨慕天鵝潔白的羽毛。他猜想天鵝一定是經常洗澡，羽毛才變得如此潔白無瑕。於是，他毅然離開了他賴以生存的祭壇，來到江湖邊。他天天洗刷自己的羽毛，不但一點都沒洗白，反而因缺少食物飢餓而死。

這故事是說，人的本性不會隨着生活方式的改變而改變。

the goat and the goatherd 山羊與牧羊人

a goatherd had sought to bring back a stray goat to his flock. he whistled and sounded his horn in vain; the straggler paid no attention to the summons. at last the goatherd threw a stone, and breaking its horn, begged the goat not to tell his master. the goat replied, why, you silly fellow, the horn will speak though i be silent.

do not attempt to hide things which cannot be hid.

很多山羊被牧羊人趕到羊圈裏。有一隻山羊不知在吃什麼好東西，單獨落在後面。牧羊人拿起一塊石頭扔了過去，正巧打斷了山羊的一隻角。牧羊人嚇得請求山羊不要告訴主人，山羊說：“即使我不說，又怎能隱瞞下去呢？我的角已斷了，這是十分明顯的事實。”這故事說明，明顯的罪狀是無法隱瞞的。

the miser守財奴

有個守財奴變賣了他所有的家產，換回了金塊，並祕密地埋在一個地方。他每天走去看看他的寶藏。有個在附近放羊的牧人留心觀察，知道了真情，趁他走後，挖出金塊拿走了。守財奴再來時，發現洞中的金塊沒有了，便捶胸痛哭。有個人見他如此悲痛，問明原因後，說道：“喂，朋友，別再難過了，那塊金子雖是你買來的，但並不是你真正擁有的。去拿一塊石頭來，代替金塊放在洞裏，只要你心裏想着那是塊金子，你就會很高興。這樣與你擁有真正的金塊效果沒什麼不同。依我之見，你擁有那金塊時，也從沒用過。”

這故事說明，一切財物如不使用等於沒有。

the wolf and the lamb 狼與小羊

wolf, meeting with a lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea to justify to the lamb the wolfs 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 mothers milk is both food and drink to me. upon which the wolf seized him and ate him up, saying, well! i wont remain supperless, even though you refute every one of my imputations.

the tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny.

一隻小羊在河邊喝水，狼見到後，便想找一個名正言順的藉口吃掉他。於是他跑到上游，惡狠狠地說小羊把河水攪渾濁了，使他喝不到清水。小羊回答說，他僅僅站在河邊喝水，並且又在下游，根本不可能把上游的水攪渾。狼見此計不成，又說道：“我父親去年被你罵過。”小羊說，那時他還沒有出生。狼對他說：“不管你怎樣辯解，反正我不會放過你。”這說明，對惡人做任何正當的辯解也是無效的。

the bat and the weasels蝙蝠與黃鼠狼

a bat who fell upon the ground and was caught by a weasel pleaded to be spared his life. the weasel refused, saying that he was by nature the enemy of all birds. the bat assured him that he was not a bird, but a mouse, and thus was set free. shortly afterwards the bat again fell to the ground and was caught by another weasel, whom he likewise entreated not to eat him. the weasel said that he had a special hostility to mice. the bat assured him that he was not a mouse, but a bat, and thus a second time escaped.

it is wise to turn circumstances to good account.

英語小故事演講3

During the Southern and Northern Dynasties (420-589), there lived a beautiful, intelligent princess name Lechang in the State Chen. She and her husband Xu Deyan loved each other dearly. But before long their country was in danger of being invaded by the troops of the Sui Dynasty. Princess Lechang and Xu Deyan had a premonition that their county would be occupied by the invaders and they would have to leave the palace and go into exile. During the chaos they might lose touch with each other. They broke a bronze mirror, a symbol of the unity of husband and wife into two parts and each of them kept a half. They aGREed that each would take their half of the mirror to the fair during the Lantern Festival, which is on the 15th day of the first Lunar month, in the hope that would meet again. When they were united the two halves would join together. Soon their premonition came true. During the chaos of war, the princess lost touch with her husband was taken to a powerful minister Yang Su's house and was made his mistress.

At the Lantern Festival the next year, Xu Deyan took his half of the mirror to the fair. He hoped that he could meet his wife. It so happened that a servant was selling the other half of the bronze mirror. Xu Deyan recognized it immediately. He asked the servant about his wife. As he heard about her bitter experience, tears rolled down his cheeks. Xu Deyan wrote a poem on the half of the mirror kept by his wife: "You left me with your broken mirror Now the mirror is back but not you I can no longer see your reflection in the mirror Only the bright moon but not you" .

the servant brought back the inscribed half of the mirror to princess Lechang. For days, she could not help sobbing because she knew her husband was still alive and that he missed her but they could not meet forever.

the minister, Yang Su, found this out. He was also moved by their true love and realized it was impossible to get Lechang's love. So he sent for Xu Deyan and allowed the husband and wife to reunite.

From that story comes the idiom "A broken mirror joined together".

It is used to suggest the happy reunion of a separated couple.

英語小故事演講6

One day in 1819, 3,000 miles off the coast of Chile, in one of the most remote regions of the Pacific Ocean, 20 American sailors watched their ship flood with seawater.

They'd been struck by a sperm whale, which had ripped a catastrophic hole in the ship's hull. As their ship began to sink beneath the swells, the men huddled together in three small whaleboats.

These men were 10,000 miles from home, more than 1,000 miles from the nearest scrap of land. In their small boats, they carried only rudimentary navigational equipment and limited supplies of food and water.

These were the men of the whaleship Essex, whose story would later inspire parts of “Moby Dick.”

Even in today's world, their situation would be really dire, but think about how much worse it would have been then.

英語小故事演講8

Most people would like to be popular with others, but not everyone can achieve this goal. What is the secret to popularity? In fact, it is very simple. The first step is to improve our appearance. We should always make sure that we stay in good shape and dress well.

When we are healthy and well'groomed, we will not only look better but also feel better. In addition, we should smile and appear friendly. After all, our facial expression is an important part of our appearance. If we can do this, people will be attracted to our good looks and impressed by our confidence.

Another important step is developing more consideration for others. We should always put others first and place their interests before our own. It's also important to be good listeners; in this way people will feel comfortable enough to confide in us. However, no matter what we do, we must not gossip.

Above all, we must remember to be ourselves, not phonies. Only by being sincere and respectful of others can we earn their respect. If we can do all of the above, I am sure popularity will come our way.

英語小故事演講9

good morning, ladies and gentlemen. today i want to tell you a story about one of my friends, a lovely and smart girl who is always ready to help others. being our grade leader, she is good at both work and study. in many people's opinion, she is excellent and perfect. but one day she told me she was gloomy and insecure. people around her considered her outstanding and flawless, thinking she could handle everything. but the more she thought about herself, the more disappointed she became. she found that she was far from perfection. last week, she didn't do well in her french quiz, and the day before yesterday, she was late for a conference. she felt depressed and frustrated, because she failed to be a perfect girl without any mistakes.

i was surprised to hear that for i thought she had every reason to be confident. however, the expectation of perfection has become a burden to her. i told her no one could be perfect and i suggested she find her own position.

in fact, people are so eager to be perfect that they demand too much of themselves. they want to be special and unique, and they want to have no defects or weaknesses. however, we can never avoid mistakes and errors. it's impossible for us to be a superman or a superwoman. no matter how successful we are, there are always some flaws. if we hold that everything should be perfect, we would be overcritical.

my friend now has changed her attitude. she accepts her shortcomings but still keeps a positive outlook. she is even more active and doesn't allow the mistakes to hinder her pursuit of excellence. and i think that's the way we should be!that's all. thank you!

英語小故事演講10

This kind of feeling that I have, ladies and gentlemen, is when it feels like it, smells like it, and looks like it , it's all coming from a scene to be remembered, a scene to recall and to cherish.

Today, we live in a world of prosperity but still threatened by so many new problems. On the one hand, tourism, as one of the most promising industries in the 21st century, provides people with the great opportunity to see everything there is to see and to go any place there is to go. It has become a lifestyle for some people, and has turned out to be the driving force in GDP growth. It has the magic to turn a backward town into a wonderland of prosperity. But on the other hand, many problems can occur - natural scenes aren't natural anymore. Deforestation to heat lodges are devastating Nepal. Oil spills from tourist boats are polluting Antarctica. Tribal people are forsaking their native music and dress to listen to U2 on Walkman and wear Nike and Reeboks.

All these appalling facts have brought us to the realization that we can no longer stand by and do nothing, because the very thought of it has been eroding our resources. Encouragingly, the explosive growth of global travel has put tourism again in the spotlight, which is why the United Nations has made 20xx the year of ecotourism, for the first time to bring to the world's attention the benefits of tourism, but also its capacity to destroy our ecoenvironment.

Good es and gentlemen, it's my honor to be here today to give you this speech. My name is Coco. I'd like to talk about job satisfaction. I have divided my talk into three parts:firstly,the importance of job satisfaction; secondly,the factors of job satisfaction;finally,how to achieve job satisfaction.

Now, let's start with the first part: the importance of job satisfaction.

A job provides an individual with the necessary means to remain satisfied in almost every aspect of life such as leisure,health and social ral key factors are thought to be critical for an employee to achieve job satisfaction.

Let's turn to the second part: the factors of job satisfaction. A reasonable salary is of course the most important factor in job many people's minds,an ideal job is first of all a well-paid one, which makes the employee feel that he is fairly rewarded for what he has done for the her important element of job satisfaction is the nature of the job itself. Job satisfaction can never be achieved if the employee's education , skills and lly,job satisfaction is closely associated with being part of the decision-making process in the company as well as having opportunities for promotion.

Let's leave that there, now, let's come to the last part: how to achieve job satisfaction. for an individual employee,finding the right job and trying to stay positive might be the first step towards achieving job fulfillment and satisfaction.

英語小故事演講14

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen:

Today I would like to begin with a story. There was once a physical therapist who traveled all the way from America to Africa to do a census about mountain gorillas. These gorillas are a main attraction to tourists from all over the world; this put them severely under threat of poaching and being put into the zoo. She went there out of curiosity, but what she saw strengthened her determination to devote her whole life to fighting for those beautiful creatures. She witnessed a scene, a scene taking us to a place we never imaged we've ever been, where in the very depth of the African rainforest, surrounded by trees, flowers and butterflies, the mother gorillas cuddled their babies.

Yes, that's a memorable scene in one of my favorite movies, called Gorillas in the Mist, based on a true story of Mrs. Diana Fossey, who spent most of her lifetime in Rwanda to protect the ecoenvironment there until the very end of her life.

To me, the movie not only presents an unforgettable scene but also acts as a timeless reminder that we should not develop the tourist industry at the cost of our eco-environment.

英語小故事演講15

You may wonder if I believe in afterlife. My answer is: I know nothing about my previous life, so I dare not make improper comments on afterlife. But I do hope there's afterlife! Because our present life is so short that so many things slip away before our proper understanding. I have so many dreams, so many wishes, so many ambitions, as well as so many regrets and concerns. If there were no afterlife, all of them will remain unrealized!

I'm not contented with the present commonplace life, I'm very much attached to the affections that should have been mine but have been washed away by the hurrying time, and I yearn for the perfection and maturity if I could start all over again. So believe it or not, I'd rather there were afterlife.

英語小故事演講17

Friendship is an umbrella of two figure, is a table on the two pairs of eyes; Friendship is like a curved warm harbor, quietly to soothe tired sailing; Friendship is crossing the sea, see each other eyes of tacit understanding, is unexpected.

Since have the friendship, I no longer lonely, lonely. We are always side by side, hand in hand, walking along the street at dusk, running in the romance in the rain. We are always on the same table, focused on learning. Sometimes silence, their respective; From time to time to discuss with each other, "quarrel". We will always be on a park bench, or talk to each other in the heart trouble and sorrow, be considerate comfort; Or will be happy to tell each other, and then laugh.

Since I no longer have the friendship, weak. When the fall in the road of life, and his heart was dominated by "give up" this idea completely. However, at this time, my friend will pick up, remind me to be strong, long life, is no thorns, if be tripped, has languished, choose to give up, how can feel the successful happiness? These words, made me hopeful again. From then on, whenever you fall, I will stand up, will it as a test of fate, believe not far from success.

Since have the friendship, I have found the "intended-and not to take a hint when a hint is not intended" feeling. For the same question, we often have the same opinion. We worship the same star, like the same color, love the same kind of writing style... Also, we are also cherish the friendship.

Friendship let us have a happy, confident, brave, insist!

feeling of youth

no young man believes he shall ever die. it was a saying of my brother's, and a fine one. there is a feeling of eternity in youth, which makes us amend for everything. to be young is to be as one of the immortal gods. one half of time indeed is flown-the other half remains in store for us with all its countletreasures; for there is no line drawn, and we see no limit to our hopes and wishes. we make the coming age our own-

the vast, the unbounded prospect lies before us.

death. old age. are words without a meaning. that paby us like the idea air which we regard not. others may have undergone, or may still be liable to them-we "bear a charmed life“, which laughs to scorn all such sickly fancies. as in setting out on delightful journey, we strain our eager gaze forward-

bidding the lovely scenes at distance hail!

and see no end to the landscape, new objects presenting themselves as we advance; so, in the commencement of life, we set no bounds to our inclinations. nor to the unrestricted opportunities of gratifying them. we have as yet found no obstacle, no disposition to flag; and it seems that we can go on so forever. we look round in a new world, full of life, and motion, and ceaseleprogress; and feel in ourselves all the vigor and spirit to keep pace with it, and do not foresee from any present symptoms how we shall be left behind in the natural course of things, decline into old age, and drop into the grave. it is the simplicity, and as it were abstractedneof our feelings in youth, that (so to speak) identifies us with nature, and (our experience being slight and our passions strong) deludes us into a belief of being immortal like it. our short-lives connection with existence we fondly flatter ourselves, is an indissoluble and lasting union-a honeymoon that knows neither coldness, jar, nor separation. as infants smile and sleep, we are rocked in the cradle of our wayward fancies, and lulled into security by the roar of the universe around us0we quaff the cup of life with eager haste without draining it, instead of which it only overflows the more-objects prearound us, filling the mind with their magnitude and with the strong of desires that wait upon them, so that we have no room for the thoughts of death.

When I was a child, I lived in California, which is, you know, mostly a very nice place to live, but for me as a child, California could also be a little scary.

I remember how frightening it was to see the chandelier that hung above our dining table swing back and forth during every minor earthquake, and I sometimes couldn't sleep at night, terrified that the Big One might strike while we were sleeping.

And what we say about kids who have fears like that is that they have a vivid imagination. But at a certain point, most of us learn to leave these kinds of visions behind and grow up.
