英语幽默故事比赛英语作文【19篇】

前不久，德国一家电视台提出高薪，征集“十秒钟惊险镜头”活动。许多新闻工作者为此趋之若鹜，征集活动一时成为人们关注的焦点。在诸多参赛作品，一个名叫“卧倒”的镜头以绝对的优势夺得了冠军。 拍摄这10秒钟镜头的作者是一位名不见经传刚刚踏入工作岗位的年轻人，对于这个作品，每个人都渴望一睹为快。 几个星期以后，获奖作品在电视的强档栏目中播出。

那天晚上，大部分人都坐在电视前边观看了这组镜头，最初是等待、好奇或者议论纷纷， 10秒钟后，每一双眼睛里都是泪水。 可以毫不夸张地说，德国在那10秒钟后足足肃静了10分钟。

镜头是这样的： 在一个火车站，一个扳道工正走向自己的岗位，去为一队徐徐而来的火车扳动道岔。这时在铁轨的另一头，还有一列火车从相反的方向近车站。假如他不及时扳岔，两列火车必定相撞。

这时，他无意中回过头一看，发现自己的儿子正在铁轨那一端玩耍，而那列开始进站的火车就行驶在这条铁轨上。是抢救儿子，还是扳道避免一场灾难──他可以选择的时间太少了。那一刻，他威严地朝儿子喊了声“卧倒！” 同，冲过去扳动了道岔。 一眨眼的工夫，这列火车进入了预定的轨道。 那一边，火车也呼啸而过。 车上的旅客丝毫不知道，他们的生命曾经千钧一发，他们也丝毫不知道，一个小生命卧倒在铁轨边上──火车在轰鸣着驶过孩子丝毫未伤。那一幕刚好被一个从此经过的记者摄入镜头中。 人们猜测，那个扳道工一定是一个非常优秀的人。

后来，人们才渐渐知道，那个扳道工是一个普普通通的人。 他唯一的优点是忠于职守，没误工过一秒钟。而更让人意想不到的是，他的儿子是一个弱智儿童。

他告诉记者，他曾一遍一遍地告诉儿子说：“你长大后能干的工作太少了，你必须有一样是出色的。” 儿子听不懂父亲的话，依然傻呼呼的，但在生命攸关的那一秒钟，他却“卧倒 ”了── 这就是他在跟父亲玩打仗游戏时，唯一听懂，并做得最出色的动作。

"我听说了你写的作品，想知道你是否愿意为我、为奥斯卡金像奖写一些笑料。你知道，我是本年的颁奖大会主持人，我想看看你有没有一些适合我扮演的笑话。"

这位记者又接着问道："那么，你又是如何把这些人培养得对你如此存在价值，以至于你情愿付给他们百万之巨的酬报呢?"

"我是在专门为你写脚本，霍普先生，"我说，"只是你不知道罢了。"

"我想出版诗集。"

但每一位作家也都必须意识到，每一个胡想的方针都有一个代价标签。通向财产胡想的途径不是收费的。要研究，要学习，要实践、实践、再实践；而最奇妙的---通常也是最快的---实现任何愿望的体例就是支出你的全部代价---实实在在地做。

在我的这段人生经历中，有两个有价值的财智启示了我，也是人们可以或许鉴戒并从中获告捷利的财智灵感：一是要让任何胡想变成现实都必须支出代价。因为胡想是有威力的，但只有当你通过研究、学习和尽力而使它们取得稳固时，富饶的胡想才干变成现实。第二，只要你尽力去做，就会达到你富饶的目标。

这种事情是我想也不敢去想的，但它仍是产生了。我拿起一个便笺簿和一支钢笔，走到我家的后院里，写了几百个对于以后电影、名人以及其他任何可以或许运用于奥斯卡的笑料。在写作的过程中，我自然而然地用上了我在那些年中通过研究鲍伯·霍普的喜剧气概学来的种种小技能。

这正是办理者对待员工的正确体例。不要去寻找他们身上的缺点、瑕疵和弊端，那不是我们的目标。我们是为了寻找发家的金子，而非矿渣；我们是为了寻找优点，而非长处。事实上，当我尽力地去寻找他们身上更多的"金子"时，我就能发明更多的"金子"---他们就取得了很是多的财产，我也取得了更多的财产。

有一个叫陶邱的人住在平原郡，他娶了渤海郡墨台氏的女儿做妻子。这位女子不但容貌十分美丽，而且很有才华，为人温 柔贤慧，亲戚邻居没有不羡慕的。陶邱也感到心满意足，一家人过得十分幸福。

一年后，他们养了个儿子，家中更是充满了乐趣。一天，妻子对丈夫说：

“自从嫁到你家，这一年多我从没回过一次娘家，我很是想念母亲和娘家的人，我们是不是择个日子，回一趟娘家，顺便也把孩子带给他们瞧瞧？”

丈夫想了想，说：“也是，应该去见见岳母。”

于是一家三口人选了个日子，雇了车马一路上风尘仆仆到了渤海郡。到了墨台氏妻子家里，娘家人见了女儿、女婿和小外孙，都非常高兴，杀鸡宰羊招待。岳母丁氏已是70多岁的老妇人，自然行动迟缓，步履蹒跚，满脸皱纹交 错，说话也不灵巧了。岳母上前见过女婿便回房休息去了。

几天后，陶邱带着妻子和儿子回家。一回到家就把妻子休了。

妻子感到十分诧异，便问丈夫：

“不知我有什么过错，夫君要休我回家。”

丈夫陶邱说：

“前几天到你家去，见了你母亲真叫我伤心，她年龄老了，满脸老气横秋，德行礼节都不讲了，已不能与过去相比。我担心你老了以后也会变成这副模样，倒不如现在就把你休了。再也没有别的原因了。”

妻子听了，哭笑不得。后来，亲戚和邻居知道了这件事，都骂陶邱愚蠢至极。

这位丈夫实在是庸人自扰，为担心遥远的将来而放弃现实中的美好，这不是太愚蠢了吗？幽默励志寓言故事【9】

湍急的江水中，隐隐约约见到闪光发亮的夜明珠。有两个胆大的人，都想取得这颗珠子。虽然他们都有出色的潜水功夫，但他们潜入水中之后，却再也没有露出水面。

这两个人冒险入水的目的是大不一样的。一个这样打算：“我把夜明珠捞上来，送到博物馆，供大伙观赏，多美！”另一个这样筹谋：“得了夜明珠，卖个大价钱，别墅，小车都有了，嘿嘿，真是妙不可言。”

如今，他们全都被无情的江 水所吞没，让流水冲入了水底龙宫。老龙王对这两位不请自来的人说道：“你们的由来我一清二楚，你们为夜明珠付出了生命，我必须作出郑重的安排。俊俏的年轻人，我不能将夜明珠给你。”

“为什么？”一心想将珠子献给博物馆的人颇为吃惊。

“因为，我要把你送入天堂。而天堂里，夜明珠之类的奇珍异宝，多得数也数不清，你到那儿尽情欣赏去吧。”

“相貌丑陋的年轻人，”龙王停了停又唤道，“这颗夜明珠，就交 给你了。”

“大王英明，大王英明！”另一个人叩头如捣蒜，高声叫道。

“地狱里为了一颗这样的珠子，总争得头破血流，九死一生，”老龙王平静地说，“我就让你带上这颗珠子直奔地狱之门！”

2019年5月6日星期一晴

法国一个偏僻的小镇，据传有一个特别灵验的水泉，常会出现神迹，可以医治各种疾病。有一天，一个拄着拐杖，少了一条腿的退伍军人，一跛一跛的走过镇上的马路，旁边的镇民带着同情的回吻说：“可怜的家伙，难道他要向上帝祈求再有一条腿吗?”这一句话被退伍的军人听到了，他转过身对他们说：“我不是要向上帝祈求有一条新的腿，而是要祈求他帮助我，叫我没有一条腿后，也知道如何过日子。”

试想：学习为所失去的感恩，也接纳失去的事实，不管人生的得与失，总是要让自已的生命充满了亮丽与光彩，不再为过去掉泪，努力的活出自己的生命。

一次音乐课上，大音乐家奥尔·布尔告诉学生——不要演奏任何失调的乐器，因为一旦这样做了，你就不会潜心区分音调的各种细微差异，就会很快地模仿和附和乐器发出的声音。这样，你的耳朵就很容易失灵。

说着，布尔拿过一把看似很普通的小提琴，提醒学生注意听他的演奏，然后判断一下是不是有一根弦松了。拉完一曲，布尔又拿起另一把做工非常精美的小提琴，告诉大家这是一把维也纳著名的制琴大师刚刚制做的好琴。他用它把刚才那支曲子又演奏了一遍。然后，他问学生：“仔细比较一下，是不是第一把小提琴有根弦松了，是不是音调有一丝的不和谐?”

一位学生站起来：“是的，第一把琴是有根弦松了。”

“没错。是松了一点点，仔细听就能听出来。”另一位学生补充道。

布尔走到教室后面的一位学生身旁，问他是否也听出来了有松弛的琴弦，这位学生肯定地点头附和。接着，他又问了其他学生，他们都说听出来了，第一把琴确实有根弦松了。还有的学生说，那音都因此有点儿粗糙了。

直到所有的学生都认为第一把琴有根弦松了，布尔才微笑着请大家再听他用这把琴把刚才那支曲子演奏一遍，看看是否能够听出究竟哪一根弦松了。作为对比，布尔还用那把漂亮的琴演奏了一遍。

学生们仿佛受了鼓励，都向前围了过来，紧紧地盯着布尔拉琴的手，竖起了耳朵，希望自己能够在名师面前辨别出那根松了的弦。

布尔刚一演奏完毕，学生们便指着桌上的第一把小提琴，七嘴八舌地争论开了。他们每个人都找到了自己认为松弛的琴弦，并为自己的判断找到了看似很充分的理由。布尔一直沉默地听着学生们的发言，未做任何评判。

过了好长一段时间，教室静了下来。学生们都把目光投向了布尔，等待大音乐家揭示答案，看看究竟是哪一根弦松了。

然而，布尔却举着学生们刚才评点的琴，郑重地告诉他们：“这可是一把精制的小提琴啊。i位著名调琴师刚刚把它调试好，根本就没有一根弦是松的。倒是这一把外表做工很精巧的琴，有两根弦都松了，你们看，就在这里。”顺着布尔的手，大家果然看到了他们没有留意的两根松弛的琴弦。

“啊。原来是这样!”学生们惊讶得一时呆住了。“你们都轻信了我刚才故意做的那些误导，轻信了那根不存在的虚幻的‘断弦’。其实，我真正的用意是要提醒大家记住了——今后，无论是拉琴，还是生活，都要学会倾听。不仅要学会用耳朵倾听。还要学会用心灵倾听。尤其是在那些需要聚精会神的时候，千万不能松弛了你们心灵的琴弦。”布尔语重心长地教诲道。

布尔以其新颖的授课方式，向人们揭示了一个深刻的道理——在人生旅途上，当你放弃了自我，轻易地盲从于他人，就很有可能失去正确的方向。

50年代初，有一次周总理在中南海勤政殿设宴招待外宾。这时，上来一道汤菜，汤里的各种汤菜都雕刻成不同的图案，真正的是色、香、味俱佳。然而，冬笋片却在汤里一翻身恰巧变成了法西斯的标志。外宾见此大惊失色，忙向总理请教这是何意？总理也感到十分突然，但他随即泰然自若地解释道：“这不是法西斯的标志！这是我们中国传统中的一种图案，念‘万’，象征‘福寿绵长’的意思，是对客人的良好祝愿！”接着他又风趣地说：“就算是法西斯标志也没有关系嘛！我们大家一起来消灭法西斯，把它吃掉！”话音未落，宾主哈哈大笑，气氛更加热烈，这道汤也被客人们喝得精光。

[灰姑娘故事的英语作文

Recently, I was moved by a warming news. A boy from America was loved by a

lot of soldiers. The boys father was a policeman and he was sent to a foreign

country to carry the mission. Unluckily, he got shot and died. The world was sad

for him. This man left his wife and a small boy forever. The lucky thing for the

little boy was that his fathers colleagues decided to protect and love this boy

until he grew up. Love has been continued from this story. For most people, they

are lucky to be loved by parents and friends. While for few people, who have

gone through some disasters, they got care from the public. So no matter what

kind of difficulty we will face, we cant give up hope, because there is always

someone love us.

Human growth is a process of experimentation， trial， and error ultimately leading to wisdom。 Each time you choose to trust yourself and take action， you can never quite be certaion how the situation will turn out。 Sometimes you are victorious， and sometimes you become disillusioned。

The failed experiments， however， are no less valuable than the experiments that ultimately prove successful； in fact， you usually learn more from your perceived "failures" than you do from your perceived "success"。

If you have made what you perceive to be a mistake or failed to live up to your own expectations， you will most likely put up a barrier between your essence and the part of you that is the alleged wrong—doer。 However， perceiving past actions as mistakes implies guilt and blame， and it is not possible to learn anything meaning while you are engaged in blaming。 Therefore， forgiveness is required when you are harshly judging yourself。

Forgiveness is the act of erasing an emotional debt。 There are four kinds of forgiveness。

The first is beginner forgiveness for yourself。

The second of forgiveness is beginner forgiveness for another。

The third kind of forgiveness is advanced forgiveness of yourself。 This is for serious transgressions， the ones you carry with deep shame when you do soimething that violates your own values and ethics， you create a chasm between your standards and your actual behavior。 In such a case， you need to work very hard at forgiving youeself for these deeds so that yo call close this chasm and realign with the best part of yourself。

This does not mean that you should rush to forgive yourselfor not feel regret or remorse； but wallowing in these feelings for a protracted period of time is not healthy， and punishing yourself excessively will only creats a bigger gap between you and your ethics。

The last and perhaps most difficult one is the advanced forgiveness of another。 At some time of our life， you may have been severely wronged or hurt by another person to such a degree that forgiveness seems impossible。 However， harboring resentment and revenge fantasies only keeps you trapped in victim hood。 Under such a circumstance， you should force yourself to see the bigger picture， by so doing， you will be able to shift the focus away from the anger and resentment。

It is only through forgiveness that you can erase wrongdoing and clean the memory。 when you can finally release the situation， you may come to see it as a necessary part of your growth。

Once upon a time there was a miser. He hid his gold under a tree. Every week he used to dig it up.

One night a robber stole all the gold. When the miser came again, he found nothing but an empty hole.

He was surprised, and then burst into tears.All the neighbors gathered around him. He told them how he used to come and visit his gold.

"Did you ever take any of it out?" asked one of them. "No," he said, "I only came to look at it." "Then come again and look at the hole," said the neighbor, "it will be the same as looking at the gold."

从前，有个守财奴将他的金块埋到一棵树下，每周他都去把他挖出来看看。

一天晚上，一个小偷挖走了所有的金块。 守财奴再来查看时，发现除了一个空洞什么都没有了。

守财奴便捶胸痛哭。哭声引来了邻居，他告诉他们这里原来有他的金块。

问明了原因后，一个邻居问："你使用过这些金块吗?" "没用过，" 他说，"我只是时常来看看。""那么，以后再来看这个洞，"邻居说，"就像以前有金块时一样。"

The Blacksmith And Dog

One day his master pretended to be disgusted at this, xiaogushi8.com and then he had thrown him a bone as usual, he said, “What on earth is the good of a lazy cur like you?”

When I am hammering away at my anvil, you just curl up and go to sleep: but no sooner do I stop for a mouthful of food than you wake up and wag your tail to be fed.

法国大文豪巴尔扎克(1799-1850年)年轻时一直没有结婚。33岁那年，他收到一封从乌克兰寄来的署名为“陌生人”的信，后来他打听到，此信出于伯爵夫人埃韦利娜·韩斯卡之手，从那时起，他们的恋情渐趋浓烈并延续了17年。尽管伯爵本人在1841年去世，韩斯卡夫人直到巴尔扎克离世前5个月才与他正式结婚。

不知是解释他选择生活方式的原因还是出于幽默，巴尔扎克曾说了这样一句妙语：“当一个情人要比做一个丈夫容易。正如整天卖弄机要比偶尔说一句应景的妙语困难得多。”

著名科学家爱因斯坦的大脑有多聪明，相信不用我再多费唇舌了。但私底下，爱因斯坦其实是一个谦虚、不爱张扬又充满爱心的人。以下告诉大家几个关于爱因斯坦的有趣小故事。

坐在姑娘旁和坐在火炉旁的感受

爱因斯坦的相对论对一般人来说很抽象，有几个充满求知欲的青年学生跑来请教他：“爱因斯坦先生，什么是相对论啊?

爱因斯坦风趣地说：“你在一个漂亮姑娘旁边坐了两个小时，却觉得只过了五分钟;你紧挨着一个熊熊燃烧的火炉只坐了五分钟，却觉得过了一个小时。这就是相对论。”

任何事情都是相对的，当人在愉悦的氛围中时，就会觉得时间过得很快，而在煎熬中时，当然会觉得时间过得很慢了。不过，爱因斯坦的相对论说的是物理，而这里说的是人的心理。

从烟囱里爬出来该不该洗澡

有个学生请教爱因斯坦逻辑学有什么用。爱因斯坦没有直接回答，而是问他：“假如有两个工人从烟囱里爬出来，一个很干净，一个很脏，你认为哪一个会去洗澡呢?”

“当然是脏的那个会去洗澡。”学生说。

爱因斯坦反问：“是吗?脏的那个工人看见对方干干净净，还以为自己也不脏，哪里会去洗澡呢?”

“这样看来是干净的那个去洗澡了!”学生恍然大悟。

在场的学生都认同这个答案，爱因斯坦却笑道：“错!两个工人都是从烟囱里爬出来的，怎么可能一个干净一个脏呢?这就是逻辑学的用处!”

到底谁笑谁

爱因斯坦的《相对论》问世后，德国种族主义分子极力贬斥和嘲笑它。

一天，一些人在柏林会议厅集会攻击爱因斯坦的“谬论”，有些自以为是的狂徒极力讽刺挖苦相对论，引来一些无知者的阵阵笑声。

爱因斯坦镇定地走进会议厅，找了一个位子坐下。每当他听到演讲者荒谬的斥责声时，便随着听众一起哈哈大笑，有时还跟着鼓掌、喝倒彩。

朋友看到爱因斯坦这个样子，忍不住说：“这到底是谁在笑谁呢?”

One morning a fox saw a cock. He thought, "This is my breakfast." He came up to the cock and said," I know you can sing very well. Can you sing for me?" The cock was glad.He closes his eyes and began to sing.The fox saw that and caught him in his mouth and carried him away. The people in the field saw the fox. They cried, "Look, look! The fox is carrying the cock away." The cock said to the fox, "Mr Fox,do you understand? The people say you are carrying their cock away. Tell them it is yours. Not theirs." The fox opened his mouth and said, "The cock is mine,not yours."Just then the cock ran away from the fox and fled into the tree.

一天早上，一只狐狸看到了一只公鸡。他想：这是我的早餐。 他朝公鸡走来，对他说：“我知道，你能唱得非常好听，你能唱 给我听么?”公鸡很高兴。他闭上眼睛开始唱歌。狐狸看到这些 抓住它放到自己的嘴里走了。 在田地里的人们看到了狐狸。 大喊大叫：“看，看!狐狸抓住公鸡逃走了。”公鸡对狐狸说：“狐 狸先生，你能理解么?人们认为你叼走了公鸡。告诉他们这是你 的，不是他们的。” 狐狸张开她的嘴说：“公鸡是我的，不是你们的。”就在那时，公鸡逃离了狐狸的嘴巴，跑到了树底下。

As was the common practice with the gods of Olympus,Zeus and Hermes were visiting the world in disguise．One day they came to a village．At a thousand house sthey knocked,and a thousand times they were refused rest and food and drink．At last they arrived at a humble cottage,where the old couple Baucis and her husband Philemon lived．Poor but at peace with world,they made the best of what life could offer them ,and felt truly grateful to the gods above．When the two travellers entered the hut,the old couple were glad with lively happiness．They offered their guests their best seat,and immediately set about preparing dinner for them．With no small difficulty they made fire,brought in a fresh cabbage,cut a fat piece of their long kept meat and put them over the fire to cook．The one single goose they were ready to kill for the visitors,but it was saved at the last minute by the guests．The dining bench was a makeshift ,poor and patched but the best they had．The table was supported by a brick．The feast was quite modest,eggs and wine and cot tage cheese,and a variety of newly pickedfruit．The old couple humbly waited on the visiting guests withsincere looks and eager goodwill．Moved at the hospitality ofthe house,the gods told their true identity．“We are gods”,saidZeus．“While the neigh bour hood pays the penalty for itswickedness you shall be free from misfortune．Coming along with us”．When they were near the top of the hill,Bancis and Phile mon looked back and saw all the village below covered by amarsh ,and that among the general ruin and destruction their old cottage alone survived,changed into a grand temple．At their request they were made the guardians of the sacred place of Zeus．When their span of worldly life came to an end they were turned into an ash and linden,standing side by side in front of the temple．

Lion was awakened from sleep by a Mouse running over his face. Rising up in anger, he caught him and was about to kill him, when the Mouse piteously entreated, saying: "If you would only spare my life, I would be sure to repay your kindness." The Lion laughed and let him go.

It happened shortly after this that the Lion was caught by some hunters, who bound him by strong ropes to the ground. The Mouse, recognizing his roar, came up, and gnawed the rope with his teeth, and setting him free, exclaimed: "You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, not expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favour; but now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to confer benefits on a Lion."

一只老鼠从一只狮子面前跑过去，将它从梦中吵醒。狮子生气地跳起来，捉住老鼠，要弄死它。老鼠哀求说：「只要你肯饶恕我这条小生命，我将来一定会报答你的大恩。」狮子便笑着放了它。

后来狮子被几个猎人捉住，用粗绳捆绑倒在地上。老鼠听出是狮子的吼声，走来用牙齿咬断绳索，释放了它，并大声说：「你当时嘲笑我想帮你的忙，而且也不指望我有什么机会报答。但是你现在知道了，就算是小老鼠，也能向狮子效劳的。」
