第一篇答案:ADADB
第二篇答案:ADACD
【高中英語閱讀理解】
Passage 1
答案:CDCDB
這里要講述Andrew Jackson 和Martin Van Buren這2屆美國總統的小故事。這2個小故事也許可以解釋美語中OK一詞的來歷。故事的真實性我們不得而知,不過內容卻很有意思。
第一個解釋來源於總統Andrew Jackson的故事。Andrew Jackson幾乎沒有受到過什麼教育,事實上,他對於日常的讀寫都有困難。當收到重要文件的時候,在嘗試閱讀之後,還是讓他的助手幫忙解釋文件的內容。如果批准一份文件,Andrew Jackson就在上面寫“all correct”。麻煩的是,他不知道怎麼這2個單詞怎麼拼寫,因此,實際上他在文件上寫的是“ol korekt”。過了不久,他又把這2個單詞縮寫為“OK”。
第二個解釋來源於總統Martin Van Buren的家鄉的名字——紐約的Kinderhook。為了幫助Van Buren成為總統,他的朋友為此組織了一個社團。他們把這個社團叫做Old Kinderhook Club,社團中支持Van Buren的人都被稱為“OK”
Passage 2
答案:CCABC
盡管美國幅員遼闊,而且土地所產出的糧食遠遠超過現有人口的需求,現今的美國卻幾乎完全是個都市化的國家。不足十分之一的人口在從事農業和林業,而剩餘的大多數人都居住在大大小小的城鎮中或者城鎮的周圍。傳統的'景象在這里不斷發生著變化:小的城鎮之間仍然彼此十分相似,典型的小城鎮還是呈現出大家心目中的鄉村的風貌;但是大部分的美國人卻不再住在小城鎮了。現在半數的人口都在大約30幾個大都市地區(包括附近郊區的大型城市)——這種大都市地區的人口都在百萬以上,總的都市人口數量遠遠超過德國和英國,更不用說法國了。城市和鄉村的人口統計需要特別對待,因為我們所謂的住在鄉村的人們,每天都會開車前往附近的城鎮工作。當遠離城鎮居住的熱潮持續的情況下,城鎮周圍的鄉村地區逐漸蓋滿了房屋。那麼說不定什麼時候,一塊鄉村的地區就變成了城市的郊區。不過,典型的美國人還是越來越趨向於居住在大都市而不是小城鎮的環境中。

關於名人的英語故事:Sigmund Freud
西格蒙德·弗洛伊德
Sigmund Freud was born in 1856 in Moravia, which is now the Czech Republic. His family moved to Vienna when Sigmund was four years old. He was the oldest of his mother』s eight children and her favorite. Sigmund loved to read and he was always at the top of his class. He had no interest in sports or outdoor activities, except walking. The family apartment had only four bedrooms, but Sigmund』s mother gave him his own room so he could study in peace. He rarely joined the family for meals. Instead he ate alone in his room, surrounded by his favorite books.
西格蒙德·弗洛伊德於1856年出生於現在的捷克共和國的摩拉維亞。西格蒙德四歲時全家移居到維也納。在母親的八個孩子中他是老大,也是母親最喜愛的孩子。西格蒙德喜歡讀書,一直是班裡的尖子生。除散步之外,他對其他的體育運動和戶外活動都不感興趣。家裡只有四間卧室,但西格蒙德的母親卻給他騰出了單獨的一間房,好讓他安靜地學習。他幾乎從不與家人共同進餐,而是單獨在自己房裡吃飯,與愛書相伴。
Freud first thought about studying law, but then he decided to study medicine. He enrolled at the University of Vienna in 1873. His early days at the university were difficult because some of his clas *** ates discriminated against him because he was Jewish. This made Freud more determined than ever to do his best.
起初,弗洛伊德打算學習法律,但後來他決定學醫,並於1873年考入維也納大學。剛入學時的日子非常難受,班上有些同學因他是猶太人而歧視他,這使弗洛伊德更加堅定決心要全力以赴。
Freud received his medical degree in 1881. For the next few years he continued his laboratory work. After his marriage, Freud opened his own psychiatry practice. He worked with patients who were very depressed or behaved in strange ways. Later, he started to treat patients in a new way, called 「psycho *** ysis.」 Psycho *** ysis uses different techniques to help people.
弗洛伊德於1881年獲得醫學學位,此後的幾年,他繼續進行自己的實驗室研究工作。婚後,弗洛伊德開了自己的神經病診所,專門治療精神抑鬱或行為異常的病人。後來,他開始用一種稱作「心理分析」的新方法治療病人,這種方法通過採納各種不同的技術手段來幫助病人。
In 1938, the German army invaded Austria. World War II was beginning, and life became terrible for millions of Jews, including Sigmund Freud. The army burnt many of his books in public and arrested him secretly. Freud needed a miracle to save his life. The miracle came when U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt asked the German army to set him free. They agreed to let Freud leave Austria but they wanted 20,000 pounds sterling approximately $32,000. A Greek princess who was once a patient of Freud』s paid the money. However, Freud had to sign a paper saying that he was treated well by the German army. Freud signed the paper and added in his own handwriting, 「I can most warmly remend the Gestapo to anyone.」 On June 4, 1938, Freud and his family moved to a town near London. Fifteen months later, in September 1939, Freud died at the age of 83.
1938年,德國軍隊入侵奧地利,第二次世界大戰爆發,對於幾百萬猶太人來說,生活變得極其恐怖,西格蒙德·弗洛伊德也在所難免。德軍當眾燒毀了他的許多書,還把出版這些書的公司也給搗毀了,並秘密逮捕了他。弗洛伊德現在需要奇跡才能挽救他的性命。奇跡真的出現了——美國總統富蘭克林·羅斯福出面要求德軍釋放他。德國方面同意讓弗洛伊德離開奧地利,但索要20, 000英鎊將近32, 000美元做贖金。弗洛伊德曾經的病人——位希臘公主為他付了錢。但是,弗洛伊德還必須在一個檔案上簽名,證明他在德軍中受到了良好待遇。弗洛伊德簽了名,並親筆補充道:「我可以向任何人、用最熱烈的方式推薦蓋世太保。」1938年6月4 日,弗洛伊德和他的一家遷到倫敦附近的一個小鎮。15個月後,即1939年9月,弗洛伊德去世,終年83歲。
關於名人的英語故事:Dale Carnegie
戴爾·卡耐基
The name of Dale Carnegie is synonymous with success and influence. Perhaps the most well-known author in the field of munication and public speaking, Dale Carnegie was born into poverty on a *** all farm in Missouri, on November 24, 1888. His father, named John William Caraagie, was a poor farmer. His mother, named Amanda Elizabeth Camagie, worked with his father on the farm. Dale Camegey came from humble beginnings. Yearly floods devastated the farm and kept the family poor.
戴爾·卡耐基的名字幾乎和成功、影響是同義詞,他也許是世界上在交流和演講領域最有名的作家。卡耐基於1888年11月24日出生在密蘇里州的一個農場。他的父親約翰·威廉·卡耐基是一位貧苦的農民,母親阿曼達·伊利沙白·卡耐基和和丈夫一起在農場工作。戴爾·卡耐基就這樣在貧苦中開始生活。每年的洪水氾濫摧毀了農場,使這個家庭更加貧困。
The family was in debt, and as a young boy he had to get up at 4 a.m. every day to milk the cows and help on the farm, then to go to school. As a boy, Dale was known for one thing: reciting. He used his talents in church functions and local events. In high School he joined the debating team, but never won a debate. Frustrated, he was determined to go to college and attended a state teacher』s school. He couldn』t afford to board at the school, so he rode a horse each day to class. It was said that he practiced his reciting to the horse!
家裡負債累累。這個小男孩每天早上四點就要起床到農場幫忙擠牛奶,然後再去上學。有一項能力讓年輕的戴爾遠近聞名:朗誦。他經常在當地的活動和教堂的活動中為大家朗誦。中學時,他參加了辯論隊,卻從沒有獲勝過。沮喪之餘,他下定決心上大學。他進入了一所州立師范學院。由於住不起學校宿舍,他不得不騎著馬去上學。據說,他在馬背上還練習朗誦。
As a child, Carnegie lacked of confidence and was often full of worries in those days. One day, while helping his mother pit cherries, he began to cry. His mother said, 「Dale, what in the world are you crying about?」 He blubbered, 「I am afraid I am going to be buried alive!」
卡耐基在孩提時代缺乏自信,充滿焦慮。一天,當他幫助媽媽給櫻桃樹挖坑時,他哭了。媽媽問:「戴爾,你到底在哭什麼呢?」戴爾抽噎著說:「我怕我被活埋在這坑裡。」
When thunderstorms came, he worried for fear he would be killed for lightning. When hard times came, he worried for fear they wouldn』t have enough to eat. He worried for fear he would go to hell when he died. He was terrified for fear an older boy, Sam White, would cut off his big ears 一 as he threatened to do... Later he finally found out that 99 percent of his worries did not happen.
打雷時,他擔心會被雷劈死;年景不好時,擔心以後沒有食物充飢;還擔心死後會不會下地獄。他對一個叫西姆·懷特的大男孩感到恐懼,因為西姆曾威脅他說要割掉他的大耳朵…後來,他終於發現,他擔心的事情99%都沒有發生。
It』s this humble and unconfident little boy who became a lecturer, giving hundreds of thousands of people confidence and optimi *** all over the world. It』s not difficult for one to imagine how arous the development process involved has been.
就是這樣一個如此自卑,毫無自信的小男孩,最終成為給成千上萬的人自信,讓人們樂觀的心理激勵大師,這過程需要經歷多少磨礪,灑下多少汗水,真是難以想像啊。
關於名人的英語故事:Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
弗里德里希·威廉·尼采
Nietzsche』s early childhood is itself a story of writing, reading, illness and isolation. He was sentto the local school but then gained a place at the elite academy of Pforta in 1858. By 1862,wefind the young Nietzsche already recording his doubts about the religious faith that dominatedhis home background. He was turning even then to ideas of evolution, and already had begunto speculate on the human condition: 「...we scarcely even know whether humanity itself isonly a step.」 Jaspers remarks that 「Nietzsche philosophises as a boy.」
尼采有一個被寫作、閱讀、疾病與孤獨充斥的童年。他被送入本地的學校,而在1858年獲得了在普福塔精英學院學習的機會。到了1862年,我們發現年輕的尼采已經對統治其生活環境的宗教信仰產生了懷疑。他甚至在那時就已經開始關注進化論思想,並思考人類的生存狀態,「我們幾乎不知道人類本身是否只是一個階段。」雅斯帕斯評論道,「尼采像一個孩子一樣進行哲思。
Nietzsche was certainly an intense boy, often lonely and absorbed by ideas. In 1863,we findhim already struggling to convey the mass of his thoughts on paper: 「I stare for a long timeat the white paper in front of me, troubled by the confused crowd of themes.」 This sense of「abundance」 is one of the experiences given to the character Zarathustra.
毫無疑問,尼采是一個感情強烈的孩子,他經常是孤單的,而且沉迷於各種各樣的想法。我們發現早在1863年他就努力把自己的思想記錄下來:「我長時間地盯著眼前的白紙,眾多的觀點集結於此,困擾著我。」這個「豐富」的意識,後來被加在了查拉圖斯特拉的性格上。
In 1865, Nietzsche went to Leipzig as a student, where he shifted to the study of classicalphilology, the ancient languages and their origins. Already he saw his own future in learning andteaching: 「My goal is to bee a truly practical teacher...」
1865年,尼采游學萊比錫,並轉而攻讀經典語言學,學習古代語言以及它們的來源。他把自己的未來生活確定為學習與教書:「我的目標是成為一名真正的教 師…」
Nietzsche was searching for fellow spirits and in 1865 he discovered in a bookshop the majorwork of Schopenhauer, The World as Will and Representation. For the student Nietzsche, thi *** ook by his older contemporary was a mirror of his own thoughts and struggles. Throughouthis life, Nietzsche needed heroes of thought, models for his own quest.
尼采一直在找尋靈魂上的同伴。1865年他在書店裡找到了叔本華的《作為意識與表象的世界》。對於還是一名學生的尼采來說,這部由一個年齡稍長於他的同時代人所寫的作品,正是一面他自己的思維及其斗爭的鏡子。尼采一生都在探索和尋求,期待著思想的偉人和典範。
In 1867, he enrolled in the army, but he still kept on learning. Now Nietzsche was acquiringother heroes, such as the ancient Greek thinker Democritus. In 1868, Nietzsche was readingand writing about the late eighteenth-century German authority Kant. In the same year, hemet the poser Richard Wagner whom he described as 「a fabulously vivacious, fiery man」 .In 1871, Nietzsche started work on what became his first book, The Birth of Tragedy.
1867年,尼采應征入伍,但仍然堅持學習。此時的尼采結識到其他一些偉人的思想,例如古希臘思想家德摸克利特。1868年,尼采閱讀並寫了一部關於18世紀晚期德國權威思想家康德的作品。同一年,尼采遇見了作曲家理查德·瓦格納,並將他描述為「一個驚人地樂觀與熱烈的人」。1871年,尼采開始寫作他的第一部作品《悲劇的誕生》。
In January 1883, Nietzsche wrote Book I of TSZ in 10 days. The period after that was a time ofintense proctiveness. He died in Aug. 24, 1900.
1883年1月,尼採在十天內完成了《如是說》的第一部。此後,是尼采極為多產的時期。尼采卒於1900年8月24日。

名人故事:教皇
When in Rome the pope stopped to pray for the President』s recovery and immediately sent him a personal message with his prayers and hopes.
These were worrisome times. It had not been so long before, ring a Vatican meeting with an aide to the pope』s secretary of state, that William Casey left with a final word of caution.
The CIA station in Rome had passed along a curious, and perhaps important, piece of information. When Lech Walesa had visited the pope, his host had been a man from the Italian Labour Confederation. The CIA had been told by Italian counter-intelligence officials that the host was working for Bulgaria. Since Bulgarians were under the control of the Soviets, this could either mean that Solidarity』s plans were compromised or that Walesa was in danger.
On May 13, 1981, at 5 pm, the pontiff emerged for his weekly general audience in St, Peter』s Square. After entering the open 「popemobile」,the pontiff was riding around the colonnade. His aide Stanislaw Dziwisz was next to him.
Suddenly Dziwisz heard a deafening noise, and pigeons all over the square took flight. Then the pope slumped against him.
「I knew the Holy Father was hit」, Dziwisz says 「but there was no sign of blood or a wound on him . Then I asked him. 『Where?』 he replied, 『In my stomach.』」
The pope had been wounded in his stomach, right elbow and index finger of his left hand. He was transferred to an ambulance, which sped him to a hospital.
「Mary, my mother! Mary, my mother!」 the Holy Father kept repeating. His eyes were closed, and he was in great pain, At the Gemelli Clinic the pope was rushed first to a tenth-floor room reserved for a papal emergency and then to an operating room. He』d lost a great deal of blood, and because his condition was critical, last rites were administered.
The operation lasted five hours and 20 minutes. Twenty two inches of John Paul Ⅱ』s intestine were removed. 「Hope graally returned ring the operation.」 Said Dziwisz. 「It became clear that no vital organ had been hit and that he just might survive.」
Like the bullet that almost killed Ronald Reagan, this one had passed a few millimeters from the aorta. 「If it had hit, death would have been instantaneous,」 Dziwisz observed. 「It did not touch any vital point. It was really miraculous.」
「One hand fired,」 the pope said later, 「and another hand guided the bullet.」
The triggerman was apprehended almost immediately. He was identified as Mehmet Ali Agca, a Turkish terrorist. Agca had publicly vowed to kill the pope ring the potiff』s 1979 visit to Turkey.
In recent years, ever mindful of a need for dialogue with the Jews, John Paul Ⅱmade the grand gesture of crossing the Tiber River to visit the main synagogue of Rome, something no pope had ever done before. As Roman Jews know, their community is older than the oldest Christian church. When Saints Peter and Paul came to Rome, the Torah was already being read and the Sabbath observed in the capital of the Roman Empire.
Onlookers recall that when he delivered his speech in the synagogue, John Paul Ⅱat times seemed close to breaking down. Once, as a boy, he』d gone to the synagogue in his village with his father to a choir sing 「Ani Maamin」 (I believe), which had been chanted by condemned Jews in the death camps on their way to the gas chambers. As the voice of the choir swelled, the pope bent forward, his head bowed and his hand covering his mouth.
Despite john paul Ⅱ』s declining health, the last years of his pontificate24 have seen a burst of activity. And though his hand is increasingly weary as he raises it to bless the faithful25, it points to a wider horizon.
當教皇在羅馬時,他停下為總統的康復而祈禱並同時向總統表示了他本人的祝願和希望。
那時正是令人提心吊膽的日子。就在不久前,在梵蒂岡一次與教皇的國務秘書的助手的會見中,威廉姆·凱希留下的最後一句話就是要小心。
駐羅馬的中央情報局傳來一個奇怪的,同時可能也是個重要的信息。當萊克·瓦文薩拜會教皇時,東道主是個來自義大利工黨的人。中央情報局已被義大利反間諜官員告知其人為保加利亞工作。由於保加利亞人受到蘇聯的控制,這可能就意味著波蘭團結工會的計劃已被泄露或是瓦文薩本人身處險境。
1981年5月13日下午五時,主教出現在聖彼得廣場進行每周的接見。進入敞蓬的「教皇之車」後,主教環柱廊而行。他的助手斯坦尼斯洛·簡維茨坐在他旁邊。
突然簡維茨聽到一聲震耳欲聾的巨響,廣場上的鴿子四散飛去。緊接著教皇靠著他癱倒下去。
簡維茨說:「我知道教皇被擊中了,可表面上沒有血跡或傷口。於是我問,『哪兒受傷了?』他答道,『肚子上。』」
教皇肚子上,右肘和左手食指都受了傷。他被抬上一輛救護車,迅速送往醫院。
教皇不停地重復著:「瑪麗亞,我的聖母!瑪麗亞,我的聖母!」他的雙目緊閉著,痛苦萬分。在傑米里醫院教皇先被火速送往十樓預留的教皇搶救室,而後送往手術室。他失血過多,情況非常危急,因此為他舉行了最後的宗教儀式。
手術持續了5小時20分鍾。約翰·保羅二世的腸子被切除了二十二英寸。「手術中漸漸有了希望,」簡維茲說,「很明顯致命的器官未被擊中,他得救了。」
就像子彈險些殺害羅納德·里根那樣,這枚子彈在離主動脈幾毫米的位置穿過。簡維茲說:「如若動脈被擊中,死亡可能就是瞬間的事,可子彈未傷到任何要害的地方。這真是個奇跡。」
教皇後來說:「那個人是一隻手開火,另一隻手扶著準星。」
這個殺手幾乎就地被擒。他被認出叫穆罕默德·阿里·阿克查,是個土耳其恐怖主義者。1979年教皇訪問土耳其時,阿克查曾公開發誓要將他殺掉。
近些年來,約翰·保羅二世一直關注著與*人對話的必要性,他做出了宏偉的壯舉,跨過台伯河去訪問羅馬的主要的*教堂,這對教皇來說是前所未有的。 據羅馬*人所知,他們的社區比最古老的基督教堂皇還要老。當聖彼德和聖保羅來到羅馬時,人們已開始在誦讀摩西經並且在羅馬帝國的首都里過著安息日。
旁觀者回憶說,當紀翰·保羅二世在*教堂發表演講時,他時常情難自持。在他還是孩子時,一次他同父親就曾去過他們村中的*教堂去合唱「Ani Maamin」(我想信),這首歌曾為被判罪的*人在從集中營到毒氣室的路上所吟唱。當合唱的聲音越來越響亮時,教皇鞠躬致意並以手掩面。
盡管約翰·保羅二世健康狀況越來越糟, 可他在最後幾年的教皇任期里仍進行了大量的活動。而且盡管當他向信徒揮手祝福時感覺越來越沉重,但那仍指向著更寬廣的天地。

破舊的小蒲公英的美麗(The Beauty of a Shabby Little Dandelion)
Spring has come for the flowers and trees, in the forest and fields. Spring has also come on the wild flowers under the fence and on a small apple tree. There were red bursting flower buds hanging on the fresh apple tree branches.
The apple Tree Branches were proud of themselves knowing that they were very beautiful. A Countess admired the branches, so she broke one of them off, held it in her hand, and she went back to her splendid castle in her wonderful carriage. The Countess put the branch among the fresh and green beech trees, and she smiled with satisfaction.
The apple Tree Branch held up his head and looked at many kinds of people who came in and out. They all showed different reactions to the Apple Tree Branch. All the people reacted differently when they saw the Apple Tree branch. Some were expressionless without a word, some overpraised the beauty of the Apple Tree Branch, and others gazed at him with a satisfied look.
Seeing these various reactions from people, the Apple Tree Branch realized that people have as diverse personalities as plants and flowers do and that they are all different. The Apple Tree branch looked at the fields and a garden through the open window. There were shabby flowers and plants as well as beautiful ones in the garden.
'Those grasses are so pathetic. It's not their fault they have such ugly and squalid names. However, everything is different in this world.' The apple Tree Branch sympathized and looked at the little flowers blooming next to the fields and streams.
At that time, the Sun kissed the Apple Tree Branch, a dandelion in the field, the abundant beautiful flowers, and the shabby flowers and said, "Yes, there is difference among everything, but throw away your prejudice and look ahead with a broad point of view. What do you think the poorest plant is?" "A Dandelion. People do not use it even for a bouquet, and it is so common that people trample it down carelessly. It is not different from a weed at all."
At that time, children ran across the field, rolled about on the lawn, and picked and kissed the dandelions. They made necklaces and garlands of them. They looked wonderful with the golden flowers and green stems.
The seeds stuck to the stalks of the dandelions, and they were as beautiful as white feathers. When the children blew out with a puff, the seeds of the dandelions fluttered away as if they had wings.
"Look at that! Now, do you understand how beautiful those flowers are, and how much pleasure they can give us?" The Sun said to the Apple Tree Branch. "They are only for children." The Apple Tree Branch answered.
At that time, an old lady g in the ground of the field and picked the roots of the dandelions. She will make tea, take it to the doctor who makes medicine, and earn money with the roots of the dandelions.
"But, beauty is more valuable than those things. Only elected ones can join the Kingdom of Beauty. Not every plant can be the same, just as people can't be the same." The Apple Tree Branch said.
Later some people came into the room. The Countess who brought the Apple Tree Branch to the castle was one of them. She brought a stalk of dandelion seeds much more carefully than when she brought the Apple Tree Branch.
"Look at this. Isn't this beautiful? I will draw a picture of this dandelion with the apple tree branch. Everyone says that the apple tree branch is more beautiful, but this humble dandelion has a different kind of beauty. Even though the apple tree branch and the dandelion look different from each other, they are all beautiful." The Countess said filled with admiration.
The Sun smiled and kissed the shabby dandelion and the Apple Tree Branch. The Apple Tree Branch blushed his own petals with shame.

幸福的一對(The Happy Couple)
A long time ago, there was a happy prince and princess in a country. They took care of and loved each other very much, and their country was happy, too. Therefore they didn't envy anything else. There was one thing they worried about. They wanted to make sure they could live happily forever like this.
One day, one of the subjects found out the couple's worry and told them, "Prince, I heard that there is a magic charm, and it can protect you from any unfortunate event. If you always carry the magic charm with you, your fear and worry will disappear."
"Is it true? Where can I find that charm?" The prince asked him joyfully. "There is an old man in the forest, and he knows about everything. You can ask him."
The couple visited the old man, and asked for help with their worries and fears. The old man nodded his head as if he knew everything and said, "Travel all around the world. Then, when you meet a very happy couple, ask them to cut a piece of their underwear. If you keep the piece of the underwear, your fear and worry will go away."
The couple appreciated the old man's kindness and set out on the journey. The couple wandered around everywhere and heard about a happy knight and his wife of one town. They went to visit the knight. "Are you really happy like the rumor?" Then the knight answered. "Of course, we are, Prince. But our only worry and problem is that we didn't have any children."
They had to find an absolutely happy couple, so they continued their journey. They visited a happy couple who were famous for their happiness in the next town. And they asked the couple if they were really happy. The couple answered. "Yes, we are very happy. But we have too many children. A mother with a large brood never has a peaceful day. We worry too much about our children."
They could not get a magic charm this time too, and kept going on their trip. It was very hard to find the happiest couple in the world. One day, the prince couple met a shepherd and his wife in a big field.
The shepherd was playing a flute and driving a herd of sheep, and his wife took their two children to him. As soon as the shepherd saw his family, he ran to them directly. He kissed and embraced each of them by turns. They sat in a circle and had lunch after the wife had prepared it.
The prince couple watched for a while and approached them. "Excuse me. You look so happy!" The shepherd smiled and said, "Sure, any king or queen can never be happier than we are."
The prince couple thought that they finally found what they were looking for. "I am sorry, but could you please cut a piece of your underwear for us?" The prince couple asked them very politely, but the shepherd couple felt confused and said, "Of course we would like to help you, but we don't wear any underwear."
In the end, the couple set out on their journey again with nothing. Finally they came back to their home because they were so tired, and because they couldn't find the magic charm too. As soon as they came back to their country, they visited the old man.
The prince told their story to the old man and asked him. "Why did you make us suffer from the long trip for a charm which doesn't even exist?" The old man smiled and said, "Well, do you really think your trip was a vain effort? Think about it carefully. While you were traveling around, you learned many things about how other people live, didn't you?"
The prince thought to himself for a while and said, "Ah, now I understand. You mean that true happiness is up to yourself." The prince's wife smiled and nodded her head. The happy couple held their hands and looked in each other's eyes.
The old man said as he watched them. "The true magic charm that you are searching for is in your mind. Keep it carefully from now on. Then, you'll never be unhappy with whatever comes your way."

母雞和小女孩(The Hen and the Little Girl)
In a country home, a mother hen and her cute chicks were living happily. A little girl came to visit the country home, but was very bored. One night, the girl went into the chicken house. As soon as she went in, there was disorder.
Here and there cries of the chickens could be heard. The father, who was inside, woke up.
"What's going on? Why are you bothering the chickens?" "Because I'm bored." "You have to sleep now, go inside."
The girl went into the chicken house, again, the next day. There was a racket again, as the chickens were frightened. The moon in the night sky was worried. This time, the little girl's father will not be forgiving.
Finally, the sleeping father woke up. "Why are the chickens crying? By chance" The father was angry and came out to the yard.
"What's wrong with you? Is it okay to bother animals that can't talk? You need to be punished." When the little girl saw her father's angry face, she began to cry.
"It is true that I bothered the chickens, but I was bored yesterday. But today I went in to apologize to the chickens. I was going to hug the chickens."
When the father heard what his daughter said, a smile quickly appeared on his face. "You are truly my daughter." The father praised his daughter. He was proud of his daughter that knew how to apologize. The moon in the sky gave a big laugh, too.

培肆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。"

關於感人的英語故事篇1
A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.
「Daddy, may I ask you a question?」
「仿春舉Yeah sure, what is it?」 replied the man.
「Daddy, how much do you make an hour?」
「That』s none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?」 the man said angrily.
「I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?」 pleaded the little boy.
「If you must know, I make $20 an hour.」
「Oh,」 the little boy replied, with his head down. Looking up, he said, 「Daddy, may I please borrow $10?」
The father was furious, 「If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are being so selfish. I work hard every day for such childish behavior.」
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy』s questions. How dare he ask such questions only to get some money? After about an hour or so, the man had calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didn』t ask for money very often.
The man went to the door of the little boy』s room and opened the door.
備碧「Are you asleep, son?」 He asked.
「No daddy, I』m awake,」 replied the boy.
「I』ve been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier,」 said the man, 「It』s been a long day and I took out my aggravation on you. Here』s the $10you asked for.」
The little boy sat straight up, *** iling. 「Oh, thank you daddy!」 He yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The man, seeing that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father.
「Why do you want more money if you already have some?」 the father grumbled.
「Because I didn』t have enough, but now I do,」 the little boy replied. 「Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please e home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.」
一個感人的英文小故事解釋:
一個人工作到很晚,帶著疲憊與憤怒回到家裡,卻發現5歲大的兒子正在門口等他。
「爸爸,我可以問你一個問題嗎?」
「當然,什麼問題?」
「爸爸,你一個小時賺多少錢?」
「這不關你的事。怎麼問這樣一個問題?」父親生氣地說道。
「我只是想知道。請告訴我吧,你一個小時賺多少錢?」小男孩乞求地說。
「真想知道就告訴你吧,我一小時賺20美元。」
「噢,」男孩說著,低下了頭。接著,他抬起頭來問:「爸爸,我可以借你10美元錢嗎?」
父親生氣了:「如果你問這個問題,只是為了借錢買無聊的玩具或其他沒用的東西,那就趕緊回你的房間睡覺去。想想你怎麼會這么自私。我每天工作這么辛苦,得到的竟是這樣幼稚愚蠢的舉動。」
小男孩靜靜地走進自己的房間,關上了門。這個人坐下後,更加為這個男孩的問題生氣了。這孩子怎麼敢問這樣的問題,就為了借些錢呢?大約過了一個小時,他才平靜下來了,開始想:也許他真的需要這10美元買什麼東西呢,他並不是經常要錢花。
於是這個人走到小男孩的門口,打開了門。
「你睡了嗎,孩子?」他問。
「沒有呢,爸爸。我醒著,」男孩回答。
「我在想,可能剛才我對你太嚴厲了,」父親說,「經過漫長的一天,我把怒氣都發到你身上了。這是你要的10美元。」
小男孩坐直了身子,笑了:「噢,謝謝爸爸!」他忍不住呼喊起來。接著,他伸手到枕頭底下,拿出一把皺巴巴的鈔票。看到男孩已經有錢了,父親又忍不住要發火。小男孩慢慢地數著錢,然後抬頭看著父親。
「既然你已經有錢了,為什麼還要更多錢?」父親粗魯地抱怨說。
「因為我的錢不夠,不過現在夠了,」小男孩回答,「爸爸,我現在有20美元了,我可以買你一小時的時間嗎?請你明天早點下班,我想和你一起吃晚飯。」

翻譯:
有一個男孩有著很壞的脾氣,於是他的父親就給了他一袋釘子;並且告訴他,每當他發脾氣的時候就釘一根釘子在後院的圍籬上。
第一天,這個男孩釘下了37根釘子。慢慢地每天釘下的數量減少了。
他發現控制自己的脾氣要比釘下那些釘子來得容易些。
終於有一天這個男孩再也不會失去耐性亂發脾氣,他告訴他的父親這件事,父親告訴他,現在開始每當他能控制自己的脾氣的時候,就拔出一根釘子。
一天天地過去了,最後男孩告訴他的父親,他終於把所有釘子都 *** 了。
父親握著他的手來到後院說:你做得很好,我的好孩子。但是看看那些圍籬上的洞,這些圍籬將永遠不能回復成從前。你生氣的時候說的話將像這些釘子一樣留下疤痕。如果你拿刀子捅別人一刀,不管你說了多少次對不起,那個傷口將永遠存在。話語的傷痛就像真實的傷痛一樣令人無法承受。
註:人與人之間常常因為一些彼此無法釋懷的堅持,而造成永遠的傷害。如果我們都能從自己做起,開始寬容地看待他人,相信你一定能收到許多意想不到的結果....幫別人開啟一扇窗,也就是讓自己看到更完整的天空....
