他继续走，来到河边，河涨水了，因此，他到不了河对岸，他等了一会儿，然后他说：“今天我去不了富人家了，因为我不能渡过河。”

他开始回家，那天他没有吃东西。他就开始去找吃的，他找到苹果，很高兴地把它们从尘土中翻出来吃了。

城里老鼠和乡下老鼠

从前，有两只老鼠，它们是好朋友。一只老鼠居住在乡村，另一只住在城里。很多年以后，乡下老鼠碰到城里老鼠，它说：“你一定要来我乡下的家看看。”于是，城里老鼠就去了。乡下老鼠领着它到了一块田地上它自己的家里。它把所有最精美食物都找出来给城里老鼠。城里老鼠说：“这东西不好吃，你的家也不好，你为什么住在田野的地洞里呢？你应该搬到城里去住，你能住上用石头造的漂亮房子，还会吃上美味佳肴，你应该到我城里的家看看。”

乡下老鼠就到城里老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮，好吃的东西也为他们摆好了。可是正当他们要开始吃的时候，听见很大的一阵响声，城里的老鼠叫喊起来：“快跑！快跑！猫来了！”他们飞快地跑开躲藏起来。

过了一会儿，他们出来了。当他们出来时，乡下老鼠说：“我不喜欢住在城里，我喜欢住在田野我的洞里。因为这样虽然贫穷但是快乐自在，比起虽然富有却要过着提心吊胆的生活来说，要好些。”

第二篇：英语童话故事

以自我介绍开始电话交谈：“Hello，this is Peter Jones.如果你在接电话的时候对方没有表明他是谁，你可以说：“May I ask who's calling，please？”

Asking for someone / Making a request

如果你打电话给特定的某个人的话，那么你得用礼貌的问句来表达意图，例如“May I speak to Rachel Smith，please？”当你只知道分机号码却不知道人名的时候你可以说：“Could I have extension number 635？”但如果打电话是有特定的目的，那最好是这么说：“I'm calling to make a reservation.”

Holding and transferring

“Please hold”是电话语言中表示“等一下”。当你需要transferred（转接）到另一部分机，你常会听到：“Connecting your call…”或者“Please hold，I'll transfer you.”。如果你是在繁忙时段拨打某公司电话的话，你可能会听到简短的一句话，“Hello，please hold！”在接线员将你转到另一条线之前。

Leaving a message

当你打电话的对象不在或不能接听电话时，准备好留言。你可以使用voicemail（电子录音系统）或一部answering machine（在磁带上录音的一种机器）。如果你正和接线员讲话的话，他们会问：“Would you like to leave a message？”或者你可以说，“May I leave a message？如果想要对方回电话的话，千万别忘了留你的电话号码。这被称作call back number.Asking the speaker to slow down

如果你不确定你能听懂所有的英语对话，一定要坦诚。直接告诉对方：“My English isn't very strong，could you please speak slowly？”大部分的人会赞许你的诚实并很高兴这么做。

第三篇：The Fox and the Horse英语童话故事

The Fox and the Horse英语童话故事;狐狸和马的故事

Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm

A peasant had a faithful horse which had grown old and could do no more work, so his master no longer wanted to give him anything to eat and said, “I can certainly make no more use of you, but still I mean well by you, and if you prove yourself still strong enough to bring me a lion here, I will maintain you.But for now get out of my stable.” And with that he chased him into the open field.The horse was sad, and went to the forest to seek a little protection there from the weather.There the fox met him and said, “Why do you hang your head so, and go about all alone?”

“Alas,” replied the horse, “greed and loyalty do not dwell together in one house.My master has forgotten what services I have performed for him for so many years, and because I can no longer plow well, he will give me no more food, and has driven me out.”

“Without giving you a chance?” asked the fox.“The chance was a bad one.He said, if I were still strong enough to bring him a lion, he would keep me, but he well knows that I cannot do that.”

The fox said, “I will help you.Just lie down, stretch out as if you were dead, and do not stir.”

The horse did what the fox asked, and then the fox went to the lion, who had his den not far off, and said, “A dead horse is lying out there.Just come with me, and you can have a rich meal.”

The lion went with him, and when they were both standing by the horse the fox said, “After all, it is not very comfortable for you here —— I tell you what —— I will fasten it to you by the tail, and then you can drag it into your cave and eat it in peace.”

This advice pleased the lion.He positioned himself, and in order that the fox might tie the horse fast to him, he kept completely quiet.But the fox tied the lion's legs together with the horse's tail, and twisted and fastened everything so well and so strongly that no amount of strength could pull it loose.When he had finished his work, he tapped the horse on the shoulder and said, “Pull, white horse, pull!”

Then up sprang the horse at once, and pulled the lion away with him.The lion began to roar so that all the birds in the forest flew up in terror, but the horse let him roar, and drew him and dragged him across the field to his master's door.When the master saw the lion, he was of a better mind, and said to the horse, “You shall stay with me and fare well.” And he gave him plenty to eat until he died.

Especially when the teacher, like to go to other people, because order that other people can find themselves high up above and become a king, others only obeys.The second encounter is love are people who love to be admired him, praise him anything except hear, in fact, we ourselves do they not? Others as long as one to praise himself, we do not carried away on it? Through this we can easily become conceited person, but also easy for the offensive.There drunkard, but also a businessman, even to light lamps and geographer, I think those people is equivalent to our portrayal of the real world, love the order, and love to be admired, I would like to re-occupy the possession, finally left with nothing......I think the Little Prince This book is a family book, in this book, I can feel that for whom fame for modern day busy round, but not know they have a deep impact on the younger generation, small Prince did not understand why adults want to do that?

My favorite book is wrote by Antoine de Saint-Exupery.I still remember the first time I read the book, I was like in a fantastic world.The little prince is a boy who has an angelical heart, his life is also very simple-a small planet which is full of flowers and monkey bread tree seedlings.The little prince is always depressed, and when he was sad, he would sit on a chair and see the sunset.He even see forty-three times sunset in a day to make himself feel better.His life turned to a new appearance when a beautiful rose came out.She is a flower with proud, when her lie was exposed by the little prince, she felt embarrassed.The small misunderstanding between them made the little prince determined to leave the planet he lived on.On his all-alone journey, the little prince meets different kinds of people, which includes a king, a conceited man, a tippler, a businessman, a lamplighter and a geographer.From these people he gets a conclusion that the grown-ups are very odd.Following the instruction of the geographer, he descends in the Sahara, on the earth.Traveling on the earth, the little prince, who sees a garden of five-thousand roses, is overcome with astonishment and sadness, as he considers his rose is unique in the universe before.At that time a fox

appears.The fox, who tell the little prince about the meaning of the word “tame”, becomes his new friend.At the time to say farewell, the fox makes him know that his rose is unique because she is his rose and tamed by him.From that the little prince begins to treasure friendship and be responsible to his rose.Then he chooses the venom of snake to end his but happy, he thinks he could lay aside the bulky body and go back.I cried about the prince’s death.But I’m not sad.His life is so childish ,pure, and also sincere.And he must get his happy ending being with his rose finally.The plot is easy, but the deep meaning of the story is worth thinking.we have grown up as an adult, then we are gradually surrounded by meaningless figures and money.We live in a complex society , every day we must be faced with all kinds of person ,which made our heart more and more cold and detached.For me, society is a monster which could kill the pureness inside of my mind.I’m so grateful for reading this story.And from then on, I have a little prince live in my heart, and when I felt tired to face the society, he appeared and took me back to the clean and honest world that I’ve ever stayed in childhood.Then, I found out everything seemed so simple and life was so beautiful.更多热门文章：
