The City Mouse and the Country Mouse
Once there were two mice. They were friends. One mouse lived in the country; the other mouse lived in the city. After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse; he said, "Do come and see me at my house in the country." So the City mouse went. The City mouse said, "This food is not good, and your house is not good. Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city. You would live in a nice house made of stone. You would have nice food to eat. You must come and see me at my house in the city."
The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse. It was a very good house. Nice food was set ready for them to eat. But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise. The City mouse cried, " Run! Run! The cat is coming!" They ran away quickly and hid.
After some time they came out. When they came out, the Country mouse said, "I do not like living in the city. I like living in my hole in the field. For it is nicer to be poor and happy, than to be rich and afraid."
城里老鼠和鄉(xiāng)下老鼠
從前，有兩只老鼠，它們是好朋友。一只老鼠居住在鄉(xiāng)村，另一只住在城里。很多年以后，鄉(xiāng)下老鼠碰到城里老鼠，它說(shuō)：“你一定要來(lái)我鄉(xiāng)下的家看看。”于是，城里老鼠就去了。鄉(xiāng)下老鼠領(lǐng)著它到了一塊田地上它自己的家里。它把所有最精美食物都找出來(lái)給城里老鼠。城里老鼠說(shuō)：“這東西不好吃，你的家也不好，你為什么住在田野的地洞里呢?你應(yīng)該搬到城里去住，你能住上用石頭造的漂亮房子，還會(huì)吃上美味佳肴，你應(yīng)該到我城里的家看看。”
鄉(xiāng)下老鼠就到城里老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮，好吃的東西也為他們擺好了?？墒钦?dāng)他們要開始吃的時(shí)候，聽見很大的一陣響聲，城里的老鼠叫喊起來(lái)：“快跑!快跑!貓來(lái)了!”他們飛快地跑開躲藏起來(lái)。
過(guò)了一會(huì)兒，他們出來(lái)了。當(dāng)他們出來(lái)時(shí)，鄉(xiāng)下老鼠說(shuō)：“我不喜歡住在城里，我喜歡住在田野我的洞里。因?yàn)檫@樣雖然貧窮但是快樂自在，比起雖然富有卻要過(guò)著提心吊膽的生活來(lái)說(shuō)，要好些。”
英語(yǔ)哲理小故事篇二
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 dust.
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 dust and eat them.
Do not throw good things away; you may be glad to have them at some other time.
【譯文】
一個(gè)人正朝著一個(gè)富人的房子走去，當(dāng)他沿著路走時(shí)，在路的一邊他發(fā)現(xiàn)一箱好蘋果，他說(shuō)：“我不打算吃那些蘋果，因?yàn)楦蝗藭?huì)給我更多的食物，他會(huì)給我很好吃的東西。”然后他拿起蘋果，一把扔到土里去。
他繼續(xù)走，來(lái)到河邊，河漲水了，因此，他到不了河對(duì)岸，他等了一會(huì)兒，然后他說(shuō)：“今天我去不了富人家了，因?yàn)槲也荒芏蛇^(guò)河。”
他開始回家，那天他沒有吃東西。他就開始去找吃的，他找到蘋果，很高興地把它們從塵土中翻出來(lái)吃了。
不要把好東西扔掉，換個(gè)時(shí)候你會(huì)覺得它們大有用處。

The Old Cat
An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse; she jumped and caught the mouse. But she could not bite it; so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it.
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."

英語(yǔ)哲理小故事篇五
A hound, roaming in the forest, spied a lion. He thought the lion might be a good prey and chased, thinking he would make a fine quarry. Presently the lion perceived that he was being pursued, so, stopping short, he rounded on his pursuer and gave a loud roar. The hound immediately turned tail and fled. A fox, seeing him running away, jeered3 at him and said, "Ho! Ho! There goes the coward who chased a lion and ran away the moment the roared!"

有一條獵狗，正在森林里閑逛，猛然看見了一只獅子，心想這可是一個(gè)不錯(cuò)的獵物，便追了上去，想施展一下自己的小伎倆。很快，獅子覺察到自己被追蹤了，便突然停住，回過(guò)頭來(lái)沖著追捕者大聲吼叫。獵狗立刻轉(zhuǎn)身逃跑了。一只狐貍見狀，便嘲笑起獵狗：“呵呵，真是個(gè)膽小鬼，竟然還敢追獅子，只要獅子一聲吼，你可就落荒而逃了!”
