关于少儿英语故事：Lotus Eaters

On the tenth day after leaving Troy, Odysseus and his men came to an island, where the people only took lotus fruit and flowers as their food. This plant had such a magic effect on its eaters that it could make them forget their past and produce a dreamy laziness over them. When Odysseus' men arrived, they were kindly invited by the people on the island to eat the sweet food. Its magic power began to work on the mimmediately. They fell into a deep daydream. They lost all wishes for future. To them the sea and ship appeared dull and hateful. And they were not eager to see wife, child and kingdom. When he saw no trace of his men coming back, Odysseus became suspicious. He set out with some well armed men to find out the truth. It did not take him long to find out the magic effect of the food. Not allowing his followers to touch the plant, he ordered them to drag their lazy friends back to their ship. There he had them tied to the benches until they slept off the harmful effect of the lotus. Without hesitation they set sail, leaving the dreamy lotus eaters behind.

关于少儿英语故事：Daphne

Daphne was a lovely blooming fairy maiden. As she was playing merrily in the woods one day she saw Apollo the sun-god staring at her with more than amazement andadmiration in his eyes. The beaming face of the sun put her to flight. The eager Apollo followed her closely behind, calling out to her to stop. His passion had been lighted by her beauty and grace. He was afraid that this might be the last time he saw her. The quick footed maiden made the best of her legs, but the passionate Apollo pressed hard upon her. Through rough fields and pathless woods she ran, but the sound of his pursuing feet ever grew nearer. As he ran he begged his beloved maiden to slow down, for he feared that she might fall and hurt her sparkling skin on the rocky roads. But the escaping maiden never cared so much about that. She even threw one glance backwards. At last she was quite breathless and cried to her father, a rivergod, for help. No sooner had her prayer been uttered than answered, for she had instantly found herself glued to the ground and a layer of soft bark growing over her fair skin. She had been turned into a laurel(月桂) tree. Sighing, Apollo put his arms around the tree trunk. The trunk responded by turning thinner. To show his undying love for the maiden, he decided that the laurel would be his favorite tree and should be the prize of honour and fame for deathless poets and poetry. Thus the most outstanding poet always desires to be made a poet laureate.

关于少儿英语故事：Three women

Three women die together in an accident and go to heaven. When they get there, St. Peter says, "We only have one rule here in heaven. Don't step on the ducks." So they entered heaven, and sure enough, there are ducks all over the place. It is almost impossible not to step on a duck, and although they try their best to avoid them, the first woman accidentally steps on one.

Along comes St. Peter with the ugliest man she ever saw. St. Peter chains them together and says, "Your punishment for stepping on a duck is to spend eternity chained to this ugly man!"

The next day, the second woman steps accidentally on a duck, and along comes St. Peter, who doesn't miss a thing, and with him is another extremely ugly man. He chains them together with the same admonishment as for the first woman.

The third woman has observed all this and not wanting to be chained for all eternity to an ugly man, is very, VERY careful where she steps. She manages to go months without stepping on any ducks, but one day St. Peter comes up to her with the most handsome man she has ever laid eyes on very tall, tanned(深褐色的) and muscular. St. Peter chains them together and leaves without saying a word.

The woman remarks, "I wonder what I did to deserve being chained to you for all of eternity?" The guy says, "I don't know about you, but I stepped on a duck."
