适合小学生听的英语故事：The Dog and His Shadow

Once there was a dog in a village. He stole a piece of meat from a butcher's shop and ran off with it. He wanted to eat it at home. On his way home he came to a narrow bridge over a stream. As he was crossing the bridge, he looked down and saw his own shadow in the water. He thought it another dog with a larger piece of meat than his. He tried to get that piece, too. He opened his mouth and barked at the shadow. But the dog in the water was not a real dog, but his own shadow. So he dropped his own piece of meat into the water, and lost all.

适合小学生听的英语故事：Narcissus

Long, long ago there lived in Greece a young boy named Narcissus. All day long he tended his sheep on the hills, and drove them from place to place to find the very best pasture.

One day he came to a little stream and wanted to drink from it. The water was very clear and reflected everything that leaned over it. While Narcissus was waiting for the sheep to drunk, he chanced to see his own face in the water. He had never seen his likeness before, and he was so pleased with the pretty picture that he looked at it for a long time. He forgot all about his sheep.

The sheep waited for a long time near the stream, but at last they wandered away without the shepherd and were lost. Jupiter, the great god of that country, was very angry whish Narcissus for forgetting his sheep, and made up his mind to punish him. So Narcissus looked at himself very log, and when he turned to look after his flock he found that his feet had taken root. He could not move nor lift his head, but had to keep it hung down.

Then, little by little, he changed into the flower that we know so well, the narcissus(水仙). This is why we often find this dainty(美味的，秀丽的) flower growing on the banks of streams and always with its pretty head hung down.

适合小学生听的英语故事：Echo

Thousands of years ago the people told strange stories to one another, and believed many strange things. The believed that in all the woods and streams and hills and hollows(中空，凹陷处) lived fair creatures, and they called these creatures nymphs. These nymphs were fair and beautiful, and they loved beautiful flowers and murmuring brooks.

The fairest of them all was Echo, and her voice was the sweetest. But one day Echodispleased Queen Juno. "Like, but you shall have nothing else. You shall never speak first. You can only answer when others speak to you." Poor Echo! She became thin and pale, and thinner and paler, until at last Queen Juno's word came. Only her voice was left.

She wandered from place to place in the woods, unseen, and heard only when others spoke. On a quiet evening you may hear her, if you walk near some high rock where she loves to hide. Call to her, and she will answer, "Where are you?" you may ask. "-- You?" she will reply. "Are you Echo?" you may ask. "-- Echo?" she answers. "Come to me!" you cry. "-- me!" she replies. "I like you," you say to her. "-- you," Echo repeats.

Now a very curious thing is true. Echo always answers in the same tone in which you speak to her. If you sing, she sings back to you. If you shout, she shouts to you again. If you cry, she cries, too. If you are cross and ill natured, she will be cross and ill natured, too.

Two brothers once went into the woods to find Echo. They could not hear her voice, although they called and called. At last one of them cried impatiently, "You are a mean old cheat!" Quick as thought came back the cross reply, "-- cheat!" The other boy cried quickly, " He didn't mean that." The same tone came back in Echo' "-- that." When the boys told their mother what had happened, she smiled, and said, "That happens, the world over. Gentle words will bring forthgentle words, and harsh tones will be echoed by harsh tones."
