+ 加入清单The bulging belly fox
A hungry Fox found in a hollow tree a quantity of bread and meat, which some shepherds had placed there against their return. Delighted with his find he slipped in through the narrow aperture and greedily devoured it all. But when he tried to get out again he found himself so swollen after his big meal that he could not squeeze through the hole, and fell to whining and groaning over his misfortune. Another Fox, happening to pass that way, came and asked him what the matter was; and, on learning the state of the case, said, “Well, my friend, I see nothing for it but for you to stay where you are till you shrink to your former size; you’ll get out then easily enough.”
胀肚的狐狸
饥饿的狐狸在一棵中空的树干中发现了一些牧羊人存留的面包和肉。高兴之余,他立即通过那狭窄的缝隙挤进去,贪婪的大吃起来。然而,当他吃饱之后,却发现自己的肚子胀鼓鼓的,即便费了九牛二虎之力,却怎么也钻不出那个洞来,便在树洞里唉声叹气。另一只狐狸恰巧经过那里,听到他的呻吟,便过去问他原因。听明白缘由后,那只狐狸便说道:“我的朋友,你就老老实实待在里边吧,等到恢复了钻进去之前的身材,你就能轻松地出来了。”

+ 加入清单有人说:爱的味道是甜的,因为母亲爱她的时候,她感觉很甜蜜;有人说:爱的味道是苦的,因为爸爸教训他的时候他觉得很难受;也有人说:爱的味道是酸酸的,因为他吃奶奶亲手酿的老陈醋时感觉酸酸的……爱的味道多种多样,它都是一枝康乃馨的香味。
那年,我刚从离家四五十分钟车程的初中读书,从同学们的谈论中,我得知母亲节最好的礼物是康乃馨,为此,我提前一个月就开始节衣缩食了。
母亲节那天,阳光特别灿烂,公交车在路上摇摇晃晃,好像有意与我作对,我小心翼翼地把花捧在胸前,生怕把它挤坏。闻着康乃馨淡淡的清香,我多么想让这清香立即飘向母亲的身边!
就在离家不远的地方,我远远地看见母亲,背着背篓,手里拿着很沉重的东西,蹒跚地向家中走来。
看到母亲疲惫的身影,想到节日里她仍旧还是如此忙碌,我不禁鼻子一酸,连忙跑过去,接过母亲手里的东西。母亲刚一见到我,紧张地问:“儿子,是不是没钱花了?”我连忙摇了摇头说:“不是,我是专程后来看您的!”母亲这才舒展眉头。“看什么看,我不是好好的吗!”看到母亲汗迹斑斑的脸庞,我心中充满了愧疚,今天是母亲节,在我看来,就是把花店搬到家里,母亲也是受之无愧的。
晚饭后,我们一家人聚在客厅看电视,我正准备拿康乃馨送母亲,母亲却摸着我的头说:“儿呀,妈看你头发长了,妈妈给你剪一下咋样?”我无奈笑笑,默许了。我刚坐下,母亲便跟我又开始捞到一些理财观念呀什么的,可说着,话题就绕到我花钱不懂的节约上来了,我越听越委屈,泪水充满了眼眶。“妈,今天是母亲节,我真的是专门后来看您的。”母亲没有反驳,语重心长地说:“儿子呀,只要你孝顺,天天都是妈的节日”。
那天晚上,我把那只康乃馨夹进了日记本,在旁边附了一句:“献给我深爱的母亲!”以后,每一年母亲节,我都会闻一闻这支康乃馨的味道,因为那是爱的味道。

全文共 1885 字
+ 加入清单It happened that the cat met Mr. Fox in the woods. She thought, "He is intelligent and well experienced, and is highly regarded in the world," so she spoke to him in a friendly manner, "Good-day, my dear Mr. Fox. How is it going? How are you? How are you getting by in these hard times?"
The fox, filled with arrogance, examined the cat from head to feet, and for a long time did not know whether he should give an answer. At last he said, "Oh, you poor beard-licker, you speckled fool, you hungry mouse hunter, what are you thinking? Have you the nerve to ask how I am doing? What do you know? How many tricks do you understand?"
"I understand but one," answered the cat, modestly.
"What kind of a trick is it?" asked the fox.
"When the dogs are chasing me, I can jump into a tree and save myself."
"Is that all?" said the fox. "I am master of a hundred tricks, and in addition to that I have a sackful of cunning. I feel sorry for you. Come with me, and I will teach you how one escapes from the dogs."
Just then a hunter came by with four dogs. The cat jumped nimbly up a tree, and sat down at its top, where the branches and foliage completely hid her.
"Untie your sack, Mr. Fox, untie your sack," the cat shouted to him, but the dogs had already seized him, and were holding him fast.
"Oh, Mr. Fox," shouted the cat. "You and your hundred tricks are left in the lurch. If you been able to climb like I can, you would not have lost your life."
一只猫在森林里遇到一只狐狸,心想:“他又聪明,经验又丰富,挺受人尊重的。”於是它很友好地和狐狸打招呼:“日安,尊敬的狐狸先生,您好吗?这些日子挺艰难的,您过得怎么样?”
狐狸傲慢地将猫从头到脚地打量了一番,半天拿不定主意是不是该和它说话。最后它说:“哦,你这个倒霉的长着鬍子、满身花纹的傻瓜、饥肠辘辘地追赶老鼠的傢伙,你会啥?有甚么资格问我过得怎么样?你都学了点甚么本事?”
“我只有一种本领。”猫谦虚地说。
“甚么本领?”狐狸问。
“有人追我的时候,我会爬到树上去藏起来保护自己。”
“就这本事?”狐狸不屑地说,“我掌握了上百种本领,而且还有满口袋计谋。我真觉得你可怜,跟着我吧,我教你怎么从追捕中逃生。”
就在这时,猎人带着四条狗走近了。猫敏捷地窜到一棵树上,在树顶上蹲伏下来,茂密的树叶把它遮挡得严严实实。
“快打开你的计谋口袋,狐狸先生,快打开呀!”猫冲着狐狸喊道。可是猎狗已经将狐狸扑倒咬住了。“哎呀,狐狸先生,”猫喊道,“你的千百种本领就这么给扔掉了!假如你能像我一样爬树就不至於丢了性命了!”

全文共 4431 字
+ 加入清单Bob Richards, the former pole-vault champion, shares a moving story about a skinny young boy who loved football with all his heart.
Practice after practice, he eagerly gave everything he had. But being half the size of the other boys, he got absolutely nowhere. At all the games, this hopeful athlete sat on the bench and hardly ever played.
This teenager lived alone with his father, and the two of them had a very special relationship. Even though the son was always On the bench, his father was always in the stands cheering. He never missed a game. This young man was still the smallest of the class when he entered high school. But his father continued to encourage him but also made it very clear that he did not have to play football if he didn‘t want to.
But the young man loved football and decided to hang in there He was determined to try his best at every practice, and perhaps he‘d get to play when he became a senior. All through high school he never missed a practice nor a game but remained a bench-warmer all four years. His faithful father was always in the stands, always with words of encouragement for him. When the young man went to college, he decided to try out for the football team as a "walk-on." Everyone was sure he could never make the cut, but he did.
The coach admitted that he kept him on the roster because he always puts his heart and soul to every practice, and at the same time, provided the other members with the spirit and hustle they badly needed.
The news that he had survived the cut thrilled him so much that he rushed to the nearest phone and called his father. His father shared his excitement and was sent season tickets for all the college games. This persistent young athlete never missed practice during his four years at college, but he never got to play in a game.
It was the end of his senior football season, and as he trotted onto the practice field shortly before the big playoff game, the coach met him with a telegram. The young man read the telegram and he became deathly silent. Swallowing hard, he mumbled to the coach, "My father died this morning. Is it all right if I miss practice today?" The coach put his arm gently around his shoulder and said, "Take the rest of the week off, son. And don‘t even plan to come back to the game on Saturday."
Saturday arrived, and the game was not going well. In the third quarter,when the team was ten points behind, a silent young man quietly slipped into the empty locker room and put on his football gear. As he ran onto the sidelines, the coach and his players were astounded to see their faithful teammate back so soon. "Coach, please let me play. I‘ve just got to play today," said the young man. The coach pretended not to hear him. There was no way he wanted his worst player in this close playoff game. But the young man persisted, and finally feeling sorry for the kid, the coach gave in. "All right," he said."You can go in." Before long, the coach, the players and everyone in the stands could not believe their eyes. This little unknown, who had never played before was doing everything right. The opposing team could not stop him. He ran, he passed, blocked, and tackled like a star. His team began to triumph. The score was soon tied. In the closing seconds of the game, this kid intercepted a pass and ran all the way for the winning touchdown. The fans broke loose. His teammates hoisted him onto their shoulders. Such cheering you never heard.
Finally, after the stands had emptied and the team had showered and left the locker room, the coach noticed that this young man was sitting quietly in the corner all alone The coach came to him and said, " Kid, I can‘t believe it. You were fantastic! Tell me what got into you? How did you do it?"
He looked at the coach, with tears in his eyes, and said, "Well, you knew my dad died, but did you know that my dad was blind?" The young man swallowed hard and forced a smile, "Dad came to all my games, but today was the first time he could see me play, and I wanted to show him I could do it!"
Like the athlete‘s father, God is always there cheering for us. He‘s always reminding us to go on. He‘s even offering us His hand for He knows what is best, and is willing to give us what we need and not simply what we want. GOD has never missed a single game. What a joy to know that life is meaningful if lived for the Highest. Live for HIM for He‘s watching us in the game of life!

+ 加入清单最近,我读了《母爱的故事》而让我深受启发,什么是母爱,母爱就是无声无形的照顾和细心关爱。这不,《母爱的故事》就是讲了一个又一个感人肺腑、动人心弦的故事。
其中,最让我受启发的是这么一个故事:有一个女孩,她的父亲死了,自此那时候起。母亲便闷闷不乐,动不动就打小女孩,小女孩心里恨透了母亲。于是,她经常有事无事去剪母亲的花衣,而且下定决心要离开母亲,不再与自己的母亲一起生存……
读了这个故事,我觉得小女孩的行为很不好,母亲养育了她这么多年,她连医生谢谢都不说。如果你的朋友难得给你吃顿饭,你都会很感激。那你想,母亲哺育了我们这么多年,你感谢了吗?没有,因为你会觉得这是理所当然的。
那么你错了,只因为你是她的子女她才这么做,你是她的骨头她才这么做。
有一则故事是这样的:一个男孩的母亲是疯子,他从小就十分讨厌他的母亲,从来都不叫她一声娘,后来还是母亲的爱深深地打动了他:因为有一次他被同伴欺负母亲不顾一切去帮他。
你看,母爱是不是很伟大!
