小学六年级英语故事：兔死狗烹
During the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476BC), there were two famous senior officials in the State of Yue. The King of the Yue named Gou Jian didn't accept the advice of Fan Li and blindly launched an attack against the neighboring State of Wu. As a result, he suffereddisastrous(灾难性的) defeat and was caught by the King of Wu. The King of Wu took him back and had him as a slave. Fan Li persuaded him to endure humiliation, pretend to surrender and wait for an opportunity to avenge. Later, Wen Zhong went to the State of Wu on diplomatic missions and helped Gou Jian gain the confidence. Years later, Gou was set free. With the help of Fan and Wen, the State of Yue rapidly rehabilitated and later annexed the Wu.
As they had done so much contribution, both Fan and Wen was awarded great riches. Gou Jian even offered half of the state to Fan. But Fan rejected and decided to live in seclusion(隔离，隐退) for knowing Gou too well. As a hermit, Fan wrote to his friend Wen. In his letter, Fan said, "When all the flying birds have been shot down, the good bow is put away; when all the hares have been bagged, the hounds(猎犬) are killed for food. I suggest you withdraw in order to avoid disaster." Wen took his advice and pretended to be ill and stopped attending imperial court meetings. But it was too late. Gou Jian believed the slanderous(诽谤的) gossips about Wen and ordered Wen to kill himself. Later, people use it to mean trusted aides are eliminated when they have outlived their usefulness."

小学六年级英语故事：歧路亡羊
One neighbor of Yang Zi-a famous scholar lost a sheep. He asked all his relatives and friends and Yang Zi's servant for help.
Yang Zi asked, "Why do you send so many people out just for one lost sheep?"
His neighbor said, "Because there are a lot of branch road."
After a while, all the people came back. "Have you found the sheep?" Yang Zi asked.
"No," they answered, "Each road has branch roads and each branch has its forked(有叉的)roads. We just do not know which road to follow. So we give up."
On hearing this, Yang Zi became silent. His student did not understand what the teacher was thinking about. He passed the question to Xin Du Zi, a friend of Yang Zi. Xin Du Zi replied, "Yourtutor is worrying about your study. What have happened reminds him of the difficulty oflearning and researching. He thinks that if you fail to find the right orientation and method of study, you can accomplish nothing, just like those people trying to find the lost sheep."
The idiom is used to show that when confronted with so many choices and complicatedthings, one who seeks truth is likely to get loss or go astray(迷路) without a correct method.
小学六年级英语故事：Larry's Lawn Chair Ride
Larry Walters' boyhood dream was not an unusual one: He wanted to fly. What was unusual, though, was the way he fulfilled it. After finishing school, Larry joined the U.S. Air Force, but was rejected from pilot-training school because of poor eyesight. However, his dream remained.
Larry, aged 33, was not a pilot, but a truck driver in Los Angeles. One day, while sitting outside in his lawn chair, Larry had his eureka(有了，找到了) moment. As he watched jets fly overhead, an idea came to him to use weather balloons to fly.
A few weeks later, Larry bought 42 one-meter diameter weather balloons. He tied them to a lawn chair and filled them with helium. Then he sat down in the chair with some beer, sandwiches, and a BB gun. Larry's plan was to float about 10 meters above his backyard, enjoy a few hours in the air, and then pop some balloons with his gun to get back down. But things did not go according to Larry's plan.
When his friends cut the anchor lines, Larry, lifted by the 42 balloons, shot skyward at an astonishing speed. He finally settled at an altitude of 4,000 meters. Afraid to pop any of the balloons, in case he should upset the balance of his "craft", Larry sat, cold and frightened, in the sky with his beer and sandwiches for 14 hours.
Airline pilots heading toward Los Angeles' busy international airport radioed in reports of the strange sight. Larry's presence in the skies caused numerous planes to be rerouted. Eventually, Larry worked up the nerve to shoot a few balloons and slowly descended, landing in power lines. Uninjured, he climbed down to safety and was arrested by waiting police.
When asked by a reporter why he had done it, Larry responded, "A man just can't sit around." Larry fulfilled his dream, and set a record for a gas-filled balloon flight. But it cost him: He was later fined $1,500 for violating air safety regulations.
