篇3:母亲的谎言

全文共 948 字

+ 加入清单

这大概是妈妈生平撒的第一个谎。她眼里充盈可见的慌措,面孔也流露出不安,心跳声不再是那么均衡,很快很快,我都听得见。

记得在我和姐姐很小的时候,妈妈家常常把诚实挂在嘴边,对她来说,诚实是有多么重要的啊!妈妈这一辈子无论走到哪里都是受大家好评的,勤快善良,漂亮能干,心灵手巧的好妻子,好妈妈。所以,做个诚实的人,这一根本的规则就是妈妈一向做人,做好人的标准。直到现在,她仍然在教我们要做个诚实的人,无论走到哪里。

那天,一个初冬的早晨,天并没有亮的意思,天上还悬着那么一两点散着微弱光源的星星,我蜷着身子,暖和的被窝,怀里还塞着余着我体温的玩具熊。‘再睡一小会儿吧’我没有说服我的懒意,允许懒惰在我身上贪婪的蔓延,最终还是熟睡过去。这个时候,我无视心里如果迟到就要被罚站的警示灯,任它焦急、拼命的闪着,我还是要睡下去,也怪~是我经不起被窝的诱惑,罚站也是自找倒霉。

“喂!起床啦!六点半!怎么还在睡呀!”门外有个急促的声音正通过声波传向我的耳朵,我顿时沸腾。来不及干这个顾不上干那个,怎么办?鞋子跑哪去?化学书呢?……

正当我手忙脚乱的时候,一个坏想法萌生,我对着镜子里的我坏笑着,动作变得不紧不慢。

吃过早饭,正赶上父亲出门,心里释泄一口气,心里暗喜,这下应该好开口跟妈妈耍赖吧。

“妈~”我屁颠屁颠的跑到妈妈跟前,撒着娇。

“怎么?”

“妈~你忙我个忙呗!”也许妈妈由于诧异我说话的口气,转过头来,歪着脑袋,打量我说:“说吧”

“恩,我上课迟到,迟到是要被罚站的,能不能帮我跟老师说声,就说我有事晚点到呗?”

妈妈怔住,先是啊一声,随后有些胆怯的望着我说:“罚站没什么吧?”我看出妈妈似乎有些心软,便毫不退缩的向她进攻糖衣炮弹。后来还是得硬着头皮应答。

我高兴的蹦跳着上阁楼,听到楼下妈妈正在和老师通话的声音,瞬间就把悬着的心给端平。正当我坐在书桌前写着那些龙飞凤舞的单词的时候,我看见妈妈慢慢的迈着步子向阳台走去,有些恍惚,倒是像个孩子一样,显得分外忐忑不安,这个比喻我想是应该是最恰当不过的吧。

我心里由衷的感到愧疚和自责。妈妈最终为保护我那不值钱的颜面而捅破那张始终透明澄澈的纸。

妈妈一生都为我们,为我们担忧负愁,为我们欣喜骄傲,而让妈妈为难说谎的也是我!一个自私的我!

心底泛滥着麻绳一样的浪淘,剪不断,理还乱……

放学后,我回到了家里,母亲就喊我:琛琛,你来一下客厅。我脱掉鞋子,穿上拖鞋,把书包扔进沙发,走到客厅。妈妈,你找我有什么事情吗?我还要写作业呢。

好,好。今天是你父亲的生日,为了给你父亲一份惊喜,妈妈给你派一个任务。一、你先去你父亲的单位(学校)。二、然后找借口耽误你父亲一点时间。三、最后你和你父亲回到家里。

没问题,这么容易!我欣喜若狂的说。我带上钥匙,骑上单车,从家里骑去父亲的单位。我正好在去父亲单位的路上,刚好遇上了父亲。

你这孩子,你来找我干什么?父亲严肃地说。

爸爸,妈妈不在家,所以我就去妈妈的单位,妈妈的同事说:你妈妈不在这里,她和她的同事出去了。因为我家离这里很远,所以我就骑单车来这里找妈妈。

你别讲废话了,讲重点的

因为老师叫我们买一本书,这本书叫做《爱的教育》。明天要带到学校里去,所以我就来找爸爸带我去买这本书。

走了。

到了书店,我走进店门,一阵吵闹的声音传来。啊!这么多小朋友呀!我大吃一惊地喊道。在一排花花绿绿的书里,我找啊找,终于找到了老师叫我们买的这本书。

在回家的路上,我心里有点儿胆颤心惊,因为这是我第一次撒的谎。

到家了,不知道母亲准备的怎么样了?父亲打开大门那一刻,房子里黑黑的。在打开灯的那一刻,我心里无法原谅自己刚才撒的:屋子里一点动静也没有,怎么了?难道母亲还没有准备好自己给爸爸的惊喜吗?不,不可能的。就在父亲上楼的那一刻,屋子里还是黑黑的。突然,一阵热烈的掌声爆发而出,一道声音传来祝你生日快乐。我们大家唱了起来。

我表弟刚刚才学会算加法,他正在用手指算:一加二加三加四加五等于多少?等于15人,怎么这么少呢?不对,不是15人,是16人。我坚定地回答。原来,表弟忘记加自己了。

哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈大家们被我们弄的哈哈大笑。这一笑一说,还真忘了桌子上丰富的晚餐。我们大家动起桌子的筷子和手中的筷子,一会儿吃饭,一会儿夹菜,一会儿说笑,一会儿喝饮料。看着父亲脸上的笑容,我脸上也露出了笑容,我心中也感到格外高兴、开心。

在这一刻中,我心中才明白:我的确是撒了谎,但我撒的却是一个美丽谎言

妈妈总是教给我们“做一个好孩子”,不能说谎话,不能骗人,在我们的脑海里也是要这样做,但是有时候我们会发现,妈妈对我们撒了谎,而且这个谎,一撒就是很久、很久……

那个时候,家里的生活水平不是像现在这样,虽然不至于吃了上顿没有下顿,但是,每顿饭也要反复斟酌,去买肉也要论两买,那个时候真的想吃好吃的,而且在心中最想吃的就是肉,但是条件原因,一周吃上一次肉就是好的了。那时候,每次有肉吃的时候,我和姐姐都会紧紧地围在锅台边等着,看着锅里的肉在翻滚,口水直流,直到端上桌的时候,我们就像一只只饿狼,眼里就只有肉。每次妈妈都会给我们分好,一个人几块,不许多吃,我和姐姐每次都是吃着碗里,看着锅里的,但是我发现妈妈从来不吃,我有一次问妈妈:妈妈,你怎么不吃?妈妈说她对肉过敏,不能吃,之后就给我和姐姐分了。现在生活条件好了,吃肉也成了家常便饭,现在我和姐姐也不再抢肉吃了,盘中的肉基本上都会剩下,然后最后都是妈妈消灭掉,有一个我问妈妈,你不是不爱吃肉,妈妈一笑,没有说什么,但是那一瞬间我就明白了。哪里有不爱吃这一说,只是,她想给更重要的人吃,这就是母爱。

现在,每次吃饭,我都会给妈妈加一块大肉,告诉妈妈,你吃,我现在不爱吃肉。

你们认为‘撒谎’好吗?大家肯定会说:‘撒谎是不好的’。但是,如果是‘善意谎言’呢? 在我的记忆中,两年前班长就对我撒了一个善意的谎言。”

那天早晨下着倾盆大雨,这老天一下起雨来就没完没了。到了放学也没有停。我在教室等妈妈来接我,因为我早上没带伞,我还有一点感冒。班长也在教室陪着我,因为教室里的开门和关门都是由他来负责的。我看了看表十一点五十五了,妈妈怎么还没有过来接我呢?我急的不得了。可我看了看班长,他依然坐在座位上看书。我心里急得不得了,班长也开始有点急了。

过一会十二点了,这时班长问我;‘‘聂昊你家不是在中心街吗?今天我去中心街我姨家吃饭,我带的有雨伞,我们一起吧!”我听完马上说;‘‘真的吗?我们竟然顺路。那么我们走吧。”我们在路上走着,他问我;‘‘今天的题你都会吗?”我说:“会”!不一会儿走到他姨门口了,但是离我家还有一段路。他说:“你拿着我的伞走吧,我到目的地了”。我说:“谢谢”!我拿着他的雨伞走了。

到了下午,我拿伞去上学。准备把伞还给班长,可到了班里没见到班长的人,我一问才知道班长因淋雨感冒了,向老师请了病假。我下午放了学就去医院看他了,他还在那打吊针呢。我就问他妈妈:“他中午又回去了吗 他不是上他姨家吃饭了吗?”他妈妈说:“他一直就在家里吃饭,从不上他姨家里吃的”。我立马跑了过去问他:“你为什么要骗我,不然你也不会淋雨感冒了?”他说:“你前几天没上课可能有点跟不上,老师讲的我都会了”。听到这里我的眼泪情不自禁地掉了下来。他风趣的说:“怎么大丈夫还掉金豆啊!”我立马檫干了眼泪说:“我不掉了。”

虽然这件事过了两年了我依然没有忘记我的班长!

The Cobbler and the Banker

By La Fontaine

A cobbler passed his time in singing from morning till night;it was wonderful to see,wonderful to hear him;he was more contented in shoes,than was any of the seven sages.His neighbor,on the contrary,who was rolling in wealth,sung but little and slept less.He was a banker;when by chance he fell into a doze at day-break,the cobbler 12 awoke him with his song.The banker complained sadly that Providence had not made sleep a saleable commodity,like edibles or drinkables.

Having at length sent for the songster,he said to him,

"How much a year do you earn,Master Gregory?"

"How much a year,sir?"said the merry cobbler laughing,"I have reckon in that way,living as I do from one day to another;somehow I manage to reach the end of the year;each day brings its meal."

"Well then!How much a day do you earn,my friend?"

"Sometimes more,sometimes less;but the worst of it is,-and,without that our earnings would be very tolerable, a number of days occur in the year on which we are forbidden to work;and the curate,moreover,is constantly adding some new saint to the list.

The banker,laughing at his simplicity,said,"In the future I shall place you above want.Take this hundred crowns,preserve them carefully,and make use of them in time of need."

The cobbler fancied he beheld all the wealth which the earth had produced in the past century for the use of mankind.Returning home,he buried his money and his happiness at the same time,No more singin;he lost his voice,the moment he acquired that which is the source of so much grief.Sleep quitted his dwelling; and cares,suspicions,and false alarms took its place,All day,his eye wandered in the direction of his treasure;and at night,if some stray cat made a noise,the cat was robbing him.

At length the poor man ran to the house of his rich neighbor;"Give my back." said he,"sleep and my voice,and take your hundred crowns."

参考翻译

皮匠银行家

拉.封丹

一个皮匠从早到晚在唱歌中度过。无论见到他本人或听见他的歌声都使人觉得很愉快。他对于制鞋工作比当上了希腊七圣还要满足。

于工作把他吵醒了。银行家郁郁寡欢地抱怨上帝没有睡眠也制成一种像食品或饮料那样可以买卖的商品。后来,银行家就叫人把这位 歌手请来,问道:“格列戈里师傅,你一年赚多少钱?”

“先生,你问我一年赚多少钱吗?”快乐的皮匠笑道:“我从来不算这笔帐,我是一天一天地过日子,总而言之坚持到年底,每天挣足三餐。”

“啊,朋友,那么你一天赚多少钱呢?”

“有时多一点,有时少一点;不过最糟糕的是一年中总有些日子不准我们做买卖,牧师又常常在圣徒名单上添新名字,否则我们的收入也还算不错的。”

银行家被皮匠的直率逗笑了,他说:“我要你从今以后不愁没钱用。这一百枚钱你拿去,小心放好,需要时拿来用吧。” 皮匠觉自己好像看到了过去几百年来大地为人类所需而制造出来的全部财富。他回到家中,埋藏好硬币,同时也埋葬了他的快乐。他不再唱歌了;从他得到这种痛苦的根源那一刻起,他的嗓子就哑了。睡眠与他分手;取而代之的却是担心、怀疑、虚惊。白天,他的 目光尽朝埋藏硬币的方向望;夜间,如果有只迷途的猫弄出一点声响,他就以为是有人来抢他的钱。最后,这个可怜的皮匠跑到他那富有的邻居家里说:“把你的一百枚钱拿回去,还我的睡眠和歌声来。”

篇18:愚人节英文优秀作文

全文共 2400 字

+ 加入清单

However, communications being what they were in the days when news traveled by foot, many people did not receive the news for several years. Others, the more obstinate crowd, refused to accept the new calendar and continued to celebrate the new year on April 1. These backward folk were labeled as "fools" by the general populace. They were subject to some ridicule, and were often sent on "fools errands" or were made the butt of other practical jokes.

This harassment evolved, over time, into a tradition of prank-playing on the first day of April. The tradition eventually spread to England and Scotland in the eighteenth century. It was later introduced to the American colonies of both the English and French. April Fools Day thus developed into an international fun fest, so to speak, with different nationalities specializing in their own brand of humor at the expense of their friends and families.

In Scotland, for example, April Fools Day is actually celebrated for two days. The second day is devoted to pranks involving the posterior region of the body. It is called Taily Day. The origin of the "kick me" sign can be traced to this observance.

Mexicos counterpart of April Fools Day is actually observed on December 28. Originally, the day was a sad remembrance of the slaughter of the innocent children by King Herod. It eventually evolved into a lighter commemoration involving pranks and trickery.

Pranks performed on April Fools Day range from the simple, (such as saying, "Your shoes untied, or I accidentally stepped on your glasses!), to the elaborate. Setting a roommates alarm clock back an hour is a common gag. Whatever the prank, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to his victim, "April Fool!"

Practical jokes are a common practice on April Fools Day. Sometimes, elaborate practical jokes are played on friends or relatives that last the entire day. The news media even gets involved. For instance, a British short film once shown on April Fools Day was a fairly detailed documentary about "spaghetti farmers" and how they harvest their crop from the spaghetti trees.

April Fools Day is a "for-fun-only" observance. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their "significant other" out to eat in a fancy restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. Its simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant, for he may be the next April Fool!

生活中有的人编织善意谎言,想要去帮助他人进步。比如那个读书的残疾青年,想要让“我”在读书中增长知识,所以骗“我”把马草给他,说他家有一匹马。还有那个老妇人,她想要我的琴艺提高,而装成一个聋子。足可以证明成功的人士后面有些人在那编织了善意的谎言,使他(她)们走向成功。

生活中也有不少的例子呢!有一次我的一个朋友告诉我,他的父母因为他爸爸没有叠好被子,结果他妈妈看见了,大发雷庭,他俩一言一语的吵了起来,幸好他用演技才化解了一场“世界级大战”。他说当时他说自己肚子痛,在那吵架的爸爸妈妈马上走了过来,问他怎么了,并且还摸了摸他的头,一发现原来是在骗他们的,他以为他父母要打他,可一看,他俩的气全没有了,而且在那里互相自责。

在生活中,我还记得小时候,在外曾祖母家,小姨带着我在一条窄小的沟边上玩,可我硬是要往前面走,可不,脑袋重重的撞在了坚硬的石头上,我便哇哇大哭,这时小姨就说别哭了,待会儿了给你一个动画片看,我便马上停了下为,跟着小姨走进屋子里,她的开电视机,翻到我最爱的频道,好看的动画片,吸引住了我的眼珠,小姨变成了葫芦兄弟的三娃,小姨还讲,三娃有铜头铁臂,可厉害了呢!据说三娃还刀枪不如呢。我听得入谜了,便了结了这件事。

有时善意的谎言,总能让人忘掉烦恼的。不过,可不能滥用它们哟。
