"Why don't we teach that stupid and extravagant king a lesson. He doesn't even worry about his starving people." "That's right! He thinks he's the best."The two men went to see the king. "Oh, the world's most marvelous king! We have brought the most beautiful cloth in the whole world." "However, not everyone is able to see the cloth. Those that tell lies and have bad hearts are not able to see this fine cloth."After the king heard those words, he became very interested. "Could there really be such a cloth? If I can make clothes out of those cloths, my clothes will be the best in the whole world. Hurry and show me the cloth." The king began to get more and more greedy.The tailors pretended that the cloth was real, as they showed it to the king. The king and the fine-spoken subjects could not see anything before them. But, none of them could show that they could not see it.The king and his fine-spoken subjects just looked at each other. Then, the tailor quickly spoke in a arrogant manner. "Well, is there no honest man here? How can you look at this beautiful cloth and not praise it."Among the subjects, one of them made a flattering comment out loud. "Wow! This is the first time that I have seen such a wonderful cloth." All the subjects tried to be the first to praise the cloth.

An elf was living in the most beautiful rose in the garden, and she was so small that people could not see her. She had long blond hair to her toes and beautiful wings.One day, it got dark before she got home. She had been dancing and flying around so she didn't have time to get back to the rose bush. Suddenly, the weather got cold, evening dew started to fall, and a strong wind began to blow. She could not stay in the other flowers because they were all closed up."What am I going to do now? It's too cold." She got scared because she had never stayed outside at night. There was a twinkling light from the other side of the garden. "It's too cold, and I am scared. Maybe I should spend tonight there."The elf flew to a pavilion on the other side of the garden in a hurry. But there were already two people in the pavilion. A beautiful young lady and a handsome man were praying that they would never be apart from each other. They were in love."But we must go far away from each other soon." "Your brother is sending me away because he does not like our marriage. Oh my bride, please wait for me until I come back to you!" She sobbed and nodded her head.She pulled off a rose from the bush which was aside her and kissed it. Then she gave him the rose as a token of her love. At that moment, the rose opened up. The elf went into the rose secretly.At that moment, a horrible looking man entered the pavillion. He was the brother of the young lady. "What? You want to marry my sister?" He drew his sword and cut the young man and buried him under a linden-tree."He is gone forever now, and he will forget my sister. How dare the poor little boy want to marry my sister? It is common to die during a trip, so nobody will suspect me of murdering him." The brother brushed up his clothes and disappeared.The elf woke up and found she was in the middle of a dark forest. "Oh my! The forest is moving!" But it was not a forest. It was the hair of the young lady's brother. She shivered with fear and anger.When they got in the house, the young lady from the garden was crying. The man looked at his sister and gave her a chilly smile, and went to bed. "Oh my lover, my dear fiance, please come back safely." She sobbed sadly and fell asleep.The elf sat down quietly spreading her wings and told the young lady what she saw that day. "What I am trying to say now is not a dream. If you dig under the linden-tree in the garden, you will find your fiance. It is your brother who killed him."The beautiful young lady woke up. She secretly went out of her room and dug under the linden-tree as the elf had said.Her lover was lying in the ground, cold dead. She cried out sadly and killed herself right next to her fiance. After some time passed, a flower called, 'Jasmine' came into bloom at the place where the two lovers had died. The Jasmine had big white flowers on the branch and had a sweet smell.Incidentally, the young lady's brother was walking down the road and he pulled off a branch of the jasmine and put it near his bedside. Whennight fell, two bees with poison stingers came out of the jasmine flowers and bit the brother's ears and mouth, and then they vanished.100个儿童英语故事阅读：The Ugly Duckling 丑小鸭A mother duck was brooding on her eggs near the margin of a pond.

I wish that this baby could live happily at another place."The baby duck heard what his mother said and dropped tears of sorrow saying, "Mom, I will leave. Good-bye."

So he opened his mouth.兔子去狐狸家看情况;他通过狐狸家的窗户看到闭着眼睛的狐狸躺在床上;他想,狐狸是真的死了,还是在假装呢如果他没有死,那么我走近他就会被他抓住;于是他说：“狼说狐狸死了;但是他看起来并不像死掉了呀;死去的狐狸通常都是张着嘴的;”狐狸听到这些话就想：我得证明自己是真的死了;于是他张开了嘴巴;8/22The rabbit knew that the fox wasn't dead, and he ran as quickly as hecould.这时兔子知道狐狸并没有死,他就以最快的速度跑开啦;9/22英语故事：乌鸦与狐狸适当的赞美,确实是促进人际关系和谐的润滑剂,但那些令人听了肉麻的阿庾奉承,则只会迅速地暴露出一个人的不良企图,我们要谨慎对待无端恭维自己的人,看清他们的真面目;English story：The fox and crowOne day a crow stood on a branch near his nest and felt very happy with the meat in his mouth.

Everyone was working very hard, day and night.Everyone was working very hard, except, Frederick.夏天来了,老鼠们走出墙外去收集浆果、坚果、玉米粒和稻草;他们从早到晚玩努力工作,除了弗雷德里克;“Why aren’t you working, Frederick ” his friends asked him. “oh,but I am.” Frederick told them. “I’m collecting the sunshine for the cold, dark winter.”“弗雷德里克,你为什么不工作”他的朋友们问他;“我在工作吖;”弗雷德里克说,"我在为寒冷的深冬收集阳光呢;”A few days later his friends asked him again “why aren’t you working, Frederick ”“Oh, but I am.” Frederick told them. “I’m collecting colors for the long, grey winter.”几天过后,他的朋友们再一次问道,“弗雷德里克,你为什么不工作”他的朋友们问他;“我在工作吖;”弗雷德里克说,"我在为漫长的灰白色冬天收集色彩呢;”A few days later his friends asked him again “why aren’t you working, Frederick ”“Oh, but I am.” Frederick told them. “I’m collecting words for the long, quiet winter.”几天过后,他的朋友们再一次问道,“弗雷德里克,你为什么不工作”他的朋友们问他;“我在工作吖;”弗雷德里克说,"我在为漫长寂静的冬天收集言语呢;”Soon, the first snow came, and the four mice went back into the wall.14/22They ate their berries and they ate their nuts and they ate their corn and they ate their straw.

As any voodoo artist will tell you, if you want to grind someone into powder, you don't need to touch him at all. It's quite enough to stamp on a missing molar and let "contagious magic" do the rest. This is why peoples all over the world traditionally hide lost body parts, lest they fall into the wrong hands.远古时期的人们认为毛发、剪下的指甲和脱落的牙齿即使离开了人的身体,仍与其主人保持着神秘的联系;正如任何一个伏都教大师都会告诉你的,假如你想置某人于死地,根本用不着去碰他,只需用脚踩碎那人脱落的一颗臼齿就够了,剩下的事就交给“无边的法力”去办;这就是为什么全世界各个民族都习惯于把身体上脱落的东西藏起来,以免落入恶人之手; American children's ritual of hiding lost teeth under their pillows probably derives distantly from this practice. But there is an obvious difference, for when Suzie conceals her baby milk-tooth, she fully expects it to be found, and by a good magician, not an evil one. Moreover, she expects to be paid for having surrendered it, and at the going rate. Nothing mare clearly suggests the blithe commercial gusto of our culture than this transformation of a fearful superstition into a cheery business transaction.美国儿童把脱落的牙齿藏到枕头下的习惯做法很可能与这个习俗稍有联系;但两者又有明显的差别,因为当小苏珊把她的乳牙藏起来时,她其实满心希望有个善良的,而不是邪恶的巫师能发现她的牙齿;而且由于交出了牙齿,她还希望按现行价格得到报偿;我们把可怕的迷信变成了愉快的商业交易,没有什么比这更明白地表明我们文化中的令人愉快的商业热情; Because American children expect fair exchange for their lost teeth, it is likely that the tooth fairy ritual derives more immediately from the European, andparticularly German, tradition of placing a lost tooth in a mouse or a rat hole. The folk belief governing this practice is that when a new tooth grows in, it will possess the dental qualities, not of the original, lost tooth, but of whatever creature finds it, so the creatures of choice would be those world-class champers, the rodents.因为美国孩子希望用他们脱落的牙齿作公平交易,所以牙齿仙女的习俗可能更直接渊源于欧洲风俗,尤其是德国风俗中把脱落的牙齿放在老鼠洞里的传统做法;这种习俗依据的民间观念认为,新牙长出来时不具有原先脱落的牙齿的特质,哪种动物发现了掉下来的牙,新牙就具有那种动物的牙的特质;因此,要选那些世界一流的擅长啃咬的动物,那些啮齿目动物;Thus the optimistic, "fair exchange" principle most likely started in Germany and was brought here by German immigrants. It was only left to America to replace the beneficent “tooth rat” with the more agreeable fairy and to replace the traditional hope of hard molars with our more characteristic hope of hard cash. 因此,这种乐观的“公平交易”原则很可能发源于德国,并由德国移民带到了这里;美国人只是把好心的“牙齿老鼠”换成了更可亲的仙女,而传统上人们希望长出坚固的牙齿,到我们这儿却变成了希望拿到现金,这就更具有我们的特色;16/22英语故事：小马过河How a Colt Crossed the RiverOne day, a colt took a bag of wheat to the mill. As he was running withthe bag on his back, he came to a small river. The colt could not decide whether he could cross it. Looking around, he saw a cow grazing nearby. He asked, “Aunt Cow, could you tell me if I can cross the river ” The cow told him that he could and that the river was not very deep, just knee high.一天,一匹小马驮着麦子去磨坊;当它驮着口袋向前跑去时,突然发现一条小河挡住了去路;小马为难了,这可怎么办呢它向四周望了望,看见一头奶牛在河边吃草;小马问道：“牛阿姨,请您告诉我,这条河我能趟过去吗”奶牛回答说：“水很浅,刚到膝盖;”The colt was crossing the river when a squirrel jumped down fron a treeand stopped him. The squirrel shouted, “Colt, stop You’ll drown One of my friends drowned just yesterday in the river.” Not knowing what to do, the colt went home to consult his mum.小马正准备过河,突然从树上跳下一只松鼠,拦住它大叫道：“小马,别过河你会被淹死的;昨天,我的一个伙伴就在这条河里淹死啦”小马不知如何是好,于是决定回家问问妈妈;He told his mum his experience on the way. His mother said, “My child,don’t always listen to others. You’d better go and try yourself. Then you’llknow what to do.”小马把路上的经历告诉了妈妈;妈妈说：“孩子,光听别人说是不行的,你自己亲自去试一试,就知道答案了;”Later, at the river,the squirrel stopped the colt again. “Littlehorse, it’s too dangerous”“No, I want to try myself,” answered the colt. Then he crossed the river carefully.小马回到河边,刚要下水,松鼠又大叫起来：“小马,你不要命啦”小马说：“让我自己试试吧;”他一面回答一面下了河,小心地趟了过去;Real knowledge comes from practice.实践出真知;17/2218/22少儿英语故事：The Moon and The Well国王把纳斯雷丁叫到他的身边说:"要是你能只穿一件衬衣在院子里度过这一夜,我就送给你一百枚金币"One cold night the king called Nasreddin to him and said, "If you’re able to spend this night in the courtyard with only your shirt on, I will give you one hundred gold coins"纳斯雷丁在院子里看到一盘石磨,便开始推着石磨转,越转越快.当黎明来临时,他汗流浃背.In the courtyard Nasreddin saw a stone mill.

Nasreddin was sitting in the edge of his well when he heard the voice of the king,19/22"Nasreddin, bring some fresh water Be quick and serve us""请不要拘束,"纳斯雷丁说."Please make yourself at home," said Nasreddin."水在哪里"国王叫道."Where is the water" cried the king."陛下,就在这里,你看到了吧"纳斯雷丁指着井说."Right here, Your Majesty, you see" Nasreddin pointed to the well."你只是让我看了水,却没有让我喝"国王发怒说."You only show me the water but don’t give me a drink" fumed the king."陛下,要是月亮的光线能给人温暖,那看看水也能解渴.""Your Majesty, if the rays of the moon can warm a person, the sight of water can satisfy his thirst."20/22英语故事：生金蛋的鹅人要懂得知足常乐的道理,如果贪得无厌杀鸡取卵,我们就会失去已经拥有的东西;One morning a countryman went to his goose's nest, and saw a yellow and glitteringegg took the egg home.

A small, happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit. When he arrived, he hounced happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house. He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1000 great smiles just as warm and firendly. As he left the House, he thought to himself, "This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit it often."In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door. When he saw the 1000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself, "That is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again."All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you see in the faces of the people you meet?很久以前的一个很远的小村庄里，有一个以"千镜屋"而著名的地方。
