有关诚信的英语故事篇1

The Cherry Tree

by M.L.Weems

When George was about six years old,he was made the wealthy master of a hatchet of which,like most little boys,he was extremely fond.He went about chopping everything that came his way.

One day,as he wandered about the garden amusing himself by hacking his mother's pea sticks,he found a beautiful,young English cherry tree,of which his father was most proud.He tried the edge of his hatchet on the trunk of the tree and barked it so that it died.

Some time after this,his father discovered what had happened to his favorite tree.He came into the house in great anger,and demanded to know who the mischievous person was who had cut away the bark.Nobody could tell him anything about it.

Just then George,with his little hatchet,came into the room.

"George,'' said his father,"do you know who has killed my beautiful little cherry tree yonder in the garden?I would not have taken five guineas for it!''

This was a hard question to answer,and for a moment George was staggered by it,but quickly recovering himself he cried:

"I cannot tell a lie,father,you know I cannot tell a lie!I did cut it with my little hatchet.''

The anger died out of his father's face,and taking the boy tenderly in his arms,he said:

"My son,that you should not be afraid to tell the truth is more to me than a thousand trees!Yes - though they were blossomed with silver and had leaves of the purest gold!''

诚实

Before, very few foreigners visited the southem foot of Himalayas. Then, many Japanese went there. It is said that this is because of the honesty of a small boy.

One day, some Japanese photographers asked a local boy to buy some bottles of beer, which took the boy three hours.

The next day, the boy volunteered to buy for them. The photographer gave him a lot of money. But the boy did not return until the afternoon of the third day. So the photographers began to talk about it and thought they were cheated by the boy. The third night, the boy knocked the door of the photographer. The boy told them that he bought four bottles of beer at one store, and then he climbed another mountain and crossed a river to buy the other six. On the way back, three bottles of them were broken, he cried and brought the broken pieces of bottles to the photographer and gave him the small changes.

The people there were moved, which moved more people. Then more travelers came to the place.

早年，尼泊尔的喜马拉雅山南麓很少有外国人涉足。后来，许多日本人到这里观光旅游，据说，这是源于一位少年的诚信。

一天，几位日本摄影师请当地一位少年买啤酒， 这位少年为之跑了3个多小时。

第二天，那个少年又自告奋勇地再替他们买啤酒。这次摄影师们给了他很多钱，但直到第三天下午那个少年还没回来。于是，摄影师们议论纷纷，都认为那个少年把钱骗走了。第三天夜里，那个少年敲开了摄影师的门。原来，他只购得四瓶啤酒，尔后，他又翻了一座山，趟过一条河才购得另外6瓶，返回时摔坏了3 瓶。他哭着拿着碎玻璃片，向摄影师交回零钱，在场的人无不动容。

这个故事使许多外国人深受感动。后来，到这儿的游客越来越多。

A man went to an insurance office to have his life insured. The manager of the office asked him how old his parents were when they died.

“Mother had a bad heart and died at the age of thirty. Father died of tuberculosis when he was thirty-five.”

“I am very sorry,”said the manager,“we cannot insure your life as your parents were not healthy.”

As the man was leaving the office, depressed, he met a clerk, who had overheard the conversation.

“You must not be so frank and tell the truth,”said the clerk,“no office will insure you if you speak like that. Use your imagination a little.”

The man went to another office and was shown into the manager's room.

“Well, young man, how old were your parents when they died?”

“Mother was ninety-three, and she died from a fall off her bicycle. Father was ninety-eight and he died while he was playing football.”
