英語簡短寓言故事

　　在寓言故事中我們總能找尋出無窮無盡的智慧,下面這些是小編為大家推薦的幾篇。

　　1：大山異動

　　A mountain was once greatly agitated***焦慮，鼓動***.

　　Loud groans and noises were heard, and crowds of people came from all parts to see what was the matter. While they were assembled in anxious expectation of some terrible calamity, out came a mouse.

　　Don't make much ado about nothing.

　　2:一棵彎曲的樹

　　There was a dense forest. And all the trees were straight and tall. Their trunks were broad and shapely. But, there was one tree which had a crooked and shapeless trunk.

　　The crooked trunk tree was sad. He thought, "How ugly I am! All the others are straight and shapely. I alone have a crooked trunk."

　　One day a wood-cutter came to the forest. He looked around and said, "I will cut all the trees here, except that crooked tree. That one is of no use to me."

　　And so, he cut away all the other trees. Now, the crooked tree understands that being different has its advantages.

　　3:覆水難收

　　A certain good woman one day said something that hurt her best friend of many years. She regretted immediately and would have done anything to have taken the words back. What she said hurt the friend so much that this good woman was herself hurt for the pain she caused. In an effort to undo what she had done, she went to an older, wise woman in the village, explained her situation, and asked for advice.

　　Listening to her, the older woman sensed the younger woman's distress and knew she must help her. She also knew she could never alleviate***減輕，緩和*** the pain , but she could teach. She knew the outcome would depend solely on the character of the younger woman. She said, "Tonight, take your best feather pillows and put single feather on the doorstep of each house in the town before the sun rises."

　　The young woman hurried home to prepare for her chore, even though the feather pillows were very dear to her. All night long, she labored alone in the cold. Finally the sky was getting light, she placed the last feather on the steps of the last house. Just as the sun rose, she returned to the older woman.

　　"Now", said the wise woman, "Go back and refill your pillows with the feather you have put on the steps, then everything will be as it was before."

　　"You know that's impossible! The wind blew away each feather as fast as I placed them on the doorsteps!" the young woman was surprised.

　　"That's true," said the older woman. "Never forget. Each of your words is like a feather in the wind. Once spoken, no amount of effort, regardless how heartfelt or sincere, can never return them to your mouth. Choose your words well and guard them most of all the presence of those of you love."
