　　篇一：The hare and the tortoise龜兔賽跑

　　The hare was once boasting of his speed before the other animals. "I have never been beaten," he said, "when I run at full speed, no one is faster than me."

　　兔子向動物們誇耀他的速度，“我從來沒有失敗過，”他說，“當我奔跑時，沒有人比我更快。”

　　The tortoise said quietly, "I will race with you." "That is a good joke," said the hare. "I could dance around you the whole way."

　　烏龜平靜地說：“我要與你比賽。”“真是笑話，我可以邊玩邊和你賽跑。”兔子說。

　　The race started. The hare darted almost out of sight at once. He soon stopped and lay down to have a nap.

　　比賽開始了，一眨眼工夫，兔子已經跑得不見了蹤影，但是他覺得自己跑得快，對比賽掉以輕心，躺在路邊睡著了。

　　The tortoise plodded on and on. When the hare awoke from his nap, he saw the tortoise was near the finish line, and that he had lost the race.

　　烏龜慢騰騰地卻持續不停地走，當兔子一覺醒來，他看到烏龜已經快到終點線了。兔子輸了比賽。

　　篇二：The miser and his gold守財奴

　　Once upon a time there was a miser. He hid his gold under a tree. Every week he used to dig it up.

　　從前，有個守財奴將他的金塊埋到一棵樹下，每週他都去把他挖出來看看。

　　One night a robber stole all the gold. When the miser came again, he found nothing but an empty hole.

　　一天晚上，一個小偷挖走了所有的金塊。守財奴再來檢視時，發現除了一個空洞什麼都沒有了。

　　He was surprised, and then burst into tears. All the neighbors gathered around him. He told them how he used to come and visit his gold.

　　守財奴便捶胸痛哭。哭聲引來了鄰居，他告訴他們這裡原來有他的金塊。

　　"Did you ever take any of it out?" asked one of them. "No," he said, "I only came to look at it." "Then come again and look at the hole," said the neighbor, "it will be the same as looking at the gold."

　　問明瞭原因後，一個鄰居問：“你使用過這些金塊嗎?” “沒用過，” 他說，“我只是時常來看看。”“那麼，以後再來看這個洞，”鄰居說，“就像以前有金塊時一樣。”

　　篇三：Hercules and Pallas赫爾克里斯與雅典娜

　　When Hercules was walking in the forest, he saw a ball lying on the ground. He kicked it because it blocked his way.

　　赫爾克里斯在森林裡漫步時，看到前面地上有一個球擋住了路，他就一腳把它踢開了。

　　To his surprise, the ball did not roll away, but grew much bigger than before. So he kicked it again much harder.

　　令他驚訝的是，球不但沒有***，反而越來越大，於是他更用力地踢它。

　　The harder he kicked, the bigger the ball grew. At last it completely filled up the road.

　　他越用力地踢，球變得越大，後來球竟將路完全堵住了。

　　Pallas then appeared. "Stop, Hercules," she said. "Stop kicking. The ball’s name is Strife.Let it alone and it will soon become small again."

　　這時，雅典娜出現了，她對他說：“不要再踢了，赫爾克里斯，這個球叫衝突，不去管它，它很快就變小了。”

　　篇四：The vixen and the lioness雌狐與母獅

　　One morning when a vixen was taking her babies out of the lair, she saw alioness and her cub.

　　一天清早，雌狐狸帶著她的孩子走出巢穴，看見了母獅子和她的孩子。

　　"Why do you have only one child, dear dame?" asked the vixen. "Look at my healthy and numerous children here, and imagine, if you are able, how a proud mother should feel."

　　“為什麼你只有一個孩子，夫人?”雌狐狸問，“看我這群健康的孩子，如果有能力，一個驕傲的媽媽應該多養一些孩子。”

　　The lioness said calmly, "Yes, just look at that beautiful collection. What are they? Foxes! I've only one, but remember, that one is a lion."

　　母獅平靜地說：“是呀，看看這漂亮的一大群，他們都是狐狸!我只有一個，可他畢竟是一頭獅子。”
