英文哲理故事篇1
A long time ago, there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to come and lay around it every day. He climbed to the tree top, ate the apples, took a nap under the shadow... He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.
很久很久以前，有一棵又高又大的蘋(píng)果樹(shù)。一位小男孩，天天到樹(shù)下來(lái)，他爬上去摘蘋(píng)果吃，在樹(shù)蔭下睡覺(jué)。他愛(ài)蘋(píng)果樹(shù)，蘋(píng)果樹(shù)也愛(ài)和他一起玩耍。
Time went by... the little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree every day. One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. “Come and play with me,” the tree asked the boy. “I am no longer a kid, I don’t play around trees anymore.” The boy replied, “I want toys. I need money to buy them.” “Sorry, but I don’t have money...but you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money.” The boy was so excited. He grabbed all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy never came back after he picked the apples. The tree was sad.
后來(lái)，小男孩長(zhǎng)大了，不再天天來(lái)玩耍。一天他又來(lái)到樹(shù)下，很傷心的樣子。蘋(píng)果樹(shù)要和他一起玩，男孩說(shuō)：“不行，我不小了，不能再和你玩，我要玩具，可 是沒(méi)錢(qián)買(mǎi)。”蘋(píng)果樹(shù)說(shuō)：“很遺憾，我也沒(méi)錢(qián)，不過(guò)，把我所有的果子摘下來(lái)賣(mài)掉，你不就有錢(qián)了?”男孩十分激動(dòng)，他摘下所有的蘋(píng)果，高高興興地走了。然后， 男孩好久都沒(méi)有來(lái)。蘋(píng)果樹(shù)很傷心。
One day, the boy returned and the tree was so excited. “Come and play with me,” the tree said. “I don’t have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help me?” “Sorry, but I don’t have a house. But you can chop off my branches to build your house.” So the boy cut all the branches off the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy never came back since then. The tree was again lonely and sad.
有一天，男孩終于來(lái)了，樹(shù)興奮地邀他一起玩。男孩說(shuō)：“不行，我沒(méi)有時(shí)間，我要替家里干活呢，我們需要一幢房子，你能幫忙嗎?”“我沒(méi)有房子，”蘋(píng)果 樹(shù)說(shuō)，“不過(guò)你可以把我的樹(shù)枝統(tǒng)統(tǒng)砍下來(lái)，拿去搭房子。”于是男孩砍下所有的樹(shù)枝，高高興興地運(yùn)走去蓋房子�？吹侥泻⒏吲d樹(shù)好快樂(lè)。從此，男孩又不來(lái)了。 樹(shù)再次陷入孤單和悲傷之中。
One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was delighted. “Come and play with me!” the tree said. “I am sad and getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?” “Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy.” So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time. The tree was happy, but it was not true.
一年夏天，男孩回來(lái)了，樹(shù)太快樂(lè)了：“來(lái)呀!孩子，來(lái)和我玩呀。”男孩卻說(shuō)：“我心情不好，一天天老了，我要揚(yáng)帆出海，輕松一下，你能給我一艘船 嗎?”蘋(píng)果樹(shù)說(shuō)：“把我的樹(shù)干砍去，拿去做船吧!”于是男孩砍下了她的樹(shù)干，造了條船，然后駕船走了，很久都沒(méi)有回來(lái)。樹(shù)好快樂(lè)……但不是真的。
Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I don’t have anything for you anymore. No more apples for you...” the tree said.
“I don’t have teeth to bite,” the boy replied.
許多年過(guò)去，男孩終于回來(lái)，蘋(píng)果樹(shù)說(shuō)：“對(duì)不起，孩子，我已經(jīng)沒(méi)有東西可以給你了，我的蘋(píng)果沒(méi)了。”
男孩說(shuō)：“我的牙都掉了，吃不了蘋(píng)果了。”
“No more trunk for you to climb on.”
“I am too old for that now,” the boy said.
“I really can’t give you anything... the only thing left is my dying roots,” the tree said with tears.
蘋(píng)果樹(shù)又說(shuō)：“我再?zèng)]有樹(shù)干，讓你爬上來(lái)了。”
男孩說(shuō)：“我太老了，爬不動(dòng)了。”
“我再也沒(méi)有什么給得出手了……，只剩下枯死下去的老根，”樹(shù)流著淚說(shuō)。
“I don’t need much now, just a place to rest. I am tired after all these years.” The boy replied.
“Good! Old tree roots is the best place to lean on and rest. Come, Come sit down with me and rest.” The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears...
男孩說(shuō)：“這么多年過(guò)去了，現(xiàn)在我感到累了，什么也不想要，只要一個(gè)休息的地方。”
“好啊!老根是最適合坐下來(lái)休息的，來(lái)啊，坐下來(lái)和我一起休息吧!”男孩坐下來(lái)，蘋(píng)果樹(shù)高興得流下了眼淚……
This is a story of everyone. The tree is our parent. When we were young, we loved to play with Mom and Dad... When we grown up, we left them, and only came to them when we need something or when we are in trouble. No matter what, parents will always be there and give everything they could to make you happy. You may think that the boy is cruel to the tree but that’s how all of us are treating our parents.
這就是我們每個(gè)人的故事。這顆樹(shù)就是我們的父母。小時(shí)候，我們喜歡和爸爸媽媽玩……長(zhǎng)大后，我們就離開(kāi)他們，只在需要什么東西或者遇到麻煩的時(shí)候，才 回到他們身邊。無(wú)論如何，父母永遠(yuǎn)都在那兒，傾其所有使你快樂(lè)。你可能認(rèn)為這個(gè)男孩對(duì)樹(shù)很殘酷，但這就是我們每個(gè)人對(duì)待父母的方式。
Take time out during the day for quiet time to listen to your inner voice. You may want to use your quiet time to meditate or pray. However you use this time, the key is to shut out all of the noise around you by focusing deep within yourself. Breathing deeply during quiet time will also help you focus. I know it’s hard to find quiet time during a particularly busy day, but it’s so important — even if it’s just 10 minutes a day and you have to sneak away to get it. Quiet time can really make a difference in your life. It enables you to hear God speaking to your heart reminding you of His perfect love for you.
白天花些時(shí)間出去，獨(dú)自傾聽(tīng)自己的心聲。你可能想利用這段安靜的時(shí)間沉思或祈禱。無(wú)論如何利用這段時(shí)間，關(guān)鍵是要排除周?chē)械脑胍�，關(guān)注自己的內(nèi)心 深處。安靜的時(shí)間進(jìn)行深呼吸也能幫你集中注意力。我知道在特別忙碌的日子找到安靜的時(shí)間很難，然而這很重要——即使一天只有10分鐘，你也要溜開(kāi)抓住它。 安靜的時(shí)間確實(shí)能使你的生命變得不同，它促使你傾聽(tīng)上帝與你的心靈對(duì)話，使你想起他賦予你的完美的愛(ài)。
Be honest with yourself by paying attention to your actions. Actions speak louder than words, and they always tell the truth. What do your actions say about you? If you say you love your job, but your actions say otherwise, which do you think is more true — your words or your actions? On the other hand, if you say you’re not good at a certain job, but your actions say otherwise, that’s also important. What do you do with this insight? You can use it to make more beneficial choices in your life. By being honest with yourself based on your previous actions, your actions moving forward will be based on truth instead of just what you tell yourself.
坦誠(chéng)對(duì)己，注重行動(dòng)吧。事實(shí)勝于雄辯，行動(dòng)才能證明事實(shí)。你的行動(dòng)是如何說(shuō)明你的呢?如果你說(shuō)熱愛(ài)自己的工作，而你的行動(dòng)正好相反，你認(rèn)為哪個(gè)更有說(shuō) 服力呢——言語(yǔ)還是行動(dòng)?另一方面，如果你說(shuō)不擅長(zhǎng)某項(xiàng)工作，但你的行動(dòng)正好相反，這也很重要。你怎么處理你這種能力?你可以由此在生活中做出更多的選 擇，坦誠(chéng)對(duì)己也建立在以前的行為上，你以后的行動(dòng)將會(huì)以事實(shí)為基礎(chǔ)，而不只是你的言詞。
Despite what your subconscious may be telling you, you can have love with no limits. The key is to unconditionally love yourself first.
不管你的潛意識(shí)告訴你什么，你都能夠擁有無(wú)盡的愛(ài)，關(guān)鍵是首先你要無(wú)條件地愛(ài)自己。
英文哲理故事篇2
A woman came out of her house and saw three old men with long white beards sitting in her front yard. She did not recognize them. She said, "I don't think I know you, but you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat."
"Is the man of the house home?", they asked. "No", she replied, "He's out." "Then we cannot come in", they replied. In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had happened. "Go tell them I am home and invite them in!" The woman went out and invited the men in. "We do not go into a House together," they replied. "Why is that?" she asked.
One of the old men explained: "His name is Wealth," he said pointing to one of his friends, "and he is Success, and I am Love." Then he added, "Now go in and discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your home."
The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband was overjoyed. "How nice!", he said. "Since that is the case, let us invite Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth!" His wife disagreed. "My dear, why don't we invite Success?" Their daughter-in-law was listening from the other corner of the house. She jumped in with her own suggestion: "Wouldn't it be better to invite Love? Our home will then be filled with love." "Let us heed our daughter-in-law's advice," said the husband to his wife. "Go out and invite Love to be our guest."
The woman went out and asked the three old men, "Which one of you is Love? Please come in and be our guest."
Love got up and started walking toward the house.
The other two also got up and followed him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success: "I only invited Love, Why are you coming in?"
The old men replied together: "If you had invited Wealth or Success, the other two of us would have stayed out, but since you invited Love, wherever He goes, we go with him. Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth and Success!"
三個(gè)白須飄然的老人坐在婦人家院前歇腳，三人中，一個(gè)是“財(cái)富”，一個(gè)是“成功”，一個(gè)是“愛(ài)”。婦人邀請(qǐng)他們進(jìn)屋，三個(gè)老者笑呵呵地謝了她，身子卻沒(méi)動(dòng)。
婦人惑然。三個(gè)老人說(shuō)：“我們不能同時(shí)進(jìn)屋呀!不過(guò)，你可以去和你的家人商量，看你們最需要我們中的哪一個(gè)。”
婦人便進(jìn)屋把老人的話說(shuō)了。丈夫驚喜道：“既然如此，我們就邀請(qǐng)財(cái)富老人吧，請(qǐng)他進(jìn)來(lái)，讓我們的屋里裝滿財(cái)富!”
婦人不同意：“親愛(ài)的，我們?yōu)槭裁床谎?qǐng)成功老人呢?做一切事情都能成功，那感覺(jué)會(huì)有多好!”
這時(shí)候，兒媳插嘴進(jìn)來(lái)，說(shuō)：“我們還是邀請(qǐng)愛(ài)吧，讓我們的家時(shí)時(shí)處處都充滿愛(ài)。”
“那我們就聽(tīng)兒媳的吧!”一對(duì)夫婦朝兒媳點(diǎn)點(diǎn)頭。
于是婦人出門(mén)，邀請(qǐng)愛(ài)的老人進(jìn)屋作客。誰(shuí)知愛(ài)的老人起身，成功老人和財(cái)富老人也都跟在后面。婦人感到驚訝：“我們邀請(qǐng)的是‘愛(ài)’，你們兩位怎么也一起來(lái)了?”
三個(gè)老人樂(lè)了：“哪里有愛(ài)，哪里就有財(cái)富和成功!”
英文哲理故事篇3
Feeling in Snow
As soon as I walked outside, I was greeted with the shimmering white blanket of cold. Despite the chill overwhelming my skin, inside I was warm. I felt as though I could be giving off heat; I had the desire to stay out in this freeze for hours. It was the type of day that speaks to you through its elements; I took a deep breath to hear more snow was coming.
As I walked I looked up, trying to realize what made this day so beautiful, so serene. It was as if time had been put temporarily on hold and I along with it. Or maybe I was the only one unpaused…Either way, the solitude was comforting, and I sensed myself floating away. I sat down on the edge of a curb and listened. All there was to hear was the wind rushing over the top of my head and circling some old, cracking leaves some yards away. To me it was the reassuring sound of nature, trying not to be forgotten.
It did start to snow. None of those little flurries, but big, fat flakes which clung immediately to their surface.
Then it was time to go and my reverie had to end. As I began walking again, I drifted back into this time frame, calm and cleared.
Now if only I could remember where I was going.
中文：雪天隨想
剛出門(mén)，便撲面而來(lái)一大片晶瑩雪白的冰涼。冷氣襲來(lái)，肌膚陣陣戰(zhàn)栗，而內(nèi)心卻溫暖如初。覺(jué)得自己似乎能發(fā)熱，因而渴望在這寒冷中長(zhǎng)時(shí)間駐足。這是一個(gè)大自然與你交流的日子。我深深地吸了一口氣，靜聽(tīng)雪花飄落，源源不絕。
漫步雪中，舉目四顧，我努力思索是什么竟然能夠把這一天變得如此美麗和寧?kù)o。那一刻，時(shí)間仿佛靜止了，而我也定在其中�；蛘�，只有我一個(gè)人在前行……
無(wú)論如何，這種孤寂卻令人欣慰。我仿佛脫離了塵世。坐在路邊，仔細(xì)聆聽(tīng)。只有風(fēng)從頭頂掠過(guò)，卷走幾碼遠(yuǎn)的干枯樹(shù)葉。在我心中，這是大自然給人安慰、令人難忘的聲音。
真的下雪了!不是零星小雪，而是鵝毛大雪，一落地就凝結(jié)在一起了。
該結(jié)束沉思離開(kāi)了!我舉步前行時(shí)，思緒又轉(zhuǎn)回到現(xiàn)實(shí)中來(lái)，而此時(shí)感覺(jué)如此平靜，如此清新。
我實(shí)在記不得我要往何處去了!
