小学生英语寓言故事：蚂蚁和鸽子【推荐20篇】

从前，有那么一群羊和一群狼生活在同一片草原上。其中羊群里有一只非常白的羊，别的羊都是像黑珍珠一般啊！于是，这只与众不同的羊就开始炫耀自己有多么的白，漂亮……总之，她们生活的地方，狼群有可能随时来“扫荡”。

一天，狼来了，他们吹着号角，“哥们，冲啊！”所有的羊群迅速逃跑，其中的那只白羊由于太显眼了，与她们同伴的皮肤的颜色不同，一下子就被抓了，成了狼群的美餐！同伴们都说：“如果你不那么显眼，你就不会被抓……”

我想告诉大家：“平凡不起眼的东西，才是真正有效的伪装！”

Dear Sue,

How are you doing?

I am writing this letter to say "thank you." First and foremost, it is clear that you, just like "our foreign mother", were very patient to us. Additionally, needless to say, you taught me a lot, not only English knowledge but also your life wisdom;consequently, all of us have fallen in love with English and study. Last but certainly not least, there is no doubt that we had a great time together, which we will keep in mind forever.

By the way, I cant wait to tell you something new about my class. After you left for the America, we had an English competition. We all did very well, using the knowledge you told us. No one can deny you helped us so much!

Sue, can you give me some information about your life in America? I miss you so much. I am looking forward to your early reply!

Best wishes!

Yours truly,

Li Hua

在一个美丽的森林内的一棵树上，住了一对老鼠母子。老鼠弟弟很热心，常常帮助别的小动物，而老鼠妈妈非常勤奋，但它体弱多病。 有一天，老鼠弟弟出外觅食，看到了一只受伤的小鸟，虚弱地靠着一棵树旁休息，老鼠弟弟想：如果我不帮助她，她一定会死的，我还是带她到我家养伤吧！然后，老鼠弟弟便走到那只小鸟的旁边，把树叶叠成一辆小车，推着小鸟回家，小鸟姐姐醒来后，便衷心地谢谢他。

过了一个星期后老鼠弟弟到海边散步，突然它听到有动物叫救命，老鼠弟弟便急忙找出声音的来源，原来有一只乌龟被鱼网困着了。老鼠弟弟立即用尖锐的牙咬开了鱼网，乌龟伯伯得救了，他立刻连声道谢，再游到大海去了。 自从老鼠弟弟救了乌龟伯伯，在老鼠家养伤的小鸟已经康复并离去了。 一天晚上，老鼠妈妈突然十分辛苦，老鼠弟弟便立即找医生，医生说她患上了一种严重的病，不尽早医治便有生命危险了！老鼠弟弟问医生怎麼办，医治便告诉他要取得山顶上的一种「七彩草」才能治好鼠妈妈的病。 老鼠弟弟立即出发，走过崎岖的山路，到了一个湖边，老鼠弟弟又不懂游泳，正感彷徨，突然，一只乌龟游过来，原来是乌龟伯伯！老鼠弟弟立即爬在他的背上，游到湖的另一边。后来，鼠弟弟又遇见小鸟姐姐，小鸟说：「骑在我背上吧！我带你上山顶。」说罢，便飞到山顶。鼠弟弟拿到「七彩草」后便回家了。终於救回老鼠妈妈的性命了。

这个故事告诉我们：人人都要有一颗善良的心，在别人有困难时伸出援手，当你有困难时别人也会帮助你哦！

农夫正在菜园里松土，突然从土疙瘩后面跳出一只很大的毒蜘蛛。

“多么可怕的蜘蛛！”农夫吓得惊叫一声，跳到一边去。

“谁敢动动我，我就咬死谁！”毒蜘蛛舞动着长爪子，威胁农夫，还发出咝咝怪叫。

毒蜘蛛又向前爬了几步，张开大嘴做出咬人的凶相，说：“蠢农夫，你要听明白，只要被我咬一口，你就会有死的危险。你先是在痛苦中抽搐，接着在极度痛苦中咽气！走开，别靠近我，否则，你要倒大霉！”

农夫心里清楚，这是毒蜘蛛装腔作势，这个小东西过高地估计了自己。

农夫向后退了一步，运足了气力，光着脚丫子狠命地踩着蜘蛛，一边说：“你嘴上讲得挺吓人，实际上又怎么样呢？我这个泥巴腿子倒要领教领教，看你能不能咬死我！”

毒蜘蛛被踩死了。在它生命的最后一息，仍然狠命地在农夫的大脚掌上咬了一口。

不知是农夫深信蜘蛛的威胁只不过是吹牛，还是因为脚掌长满了厚厚的老茧，他除了感到轻轻一蜇之外，没有任何别的感觉。

春日的到来伴着熏熏然的花香，云也醉了，游得慢了些。 The arrival of the spring day is accompanied by the smoked floral fragrance. The clouds are drunk and swimming slowly.

此时河畔垂杨已生出新叶来，远看只觉得整棵树毛茸茸的，但枝条并不密，根根分明地在暖风里荡着，有如松花色的丝线。

这些丝线间隐约夹杂着夺目的色彩，在柳条掀动时冷不丁晃一晃你的眼，凑上前去瞧，竟是一树半开海棠，羞嗒嗒地被新叶掩着，时不时被蜂蝶亲一口。顶梢的大多开了，花色是淡淡的银红，在日光下也很夺目，再下头的花只稀稀落落地开了些。

我极喜爱花。

恰好离我近的有枝开得极妙，纤纤枝头有几朵团着开在一起，开得旺些的颜色较浅，刚开的颜色便有些偏近火红了。我忍不住靠近些，端着枝条细细打量，越看越觉得这花开得实在可爱，颜色也点得恰到好处，心中怜爱极了，恨不得把这簇花拥入怀里。这份美丽，多么让人想将她留下啊，人们不也常道：有花堪折直须折么?

可流连再三，我终究松开了手，恋恋不舍地去访求下一处春日美景。

实在舍不得让它离开它眷恋的枝头，更何况从小家风就告诉我，这自然的一切，本就不是可以轻易采摘触碰的。

父亲喜欢园艺，从我小时每逢春日便携我回老家踏青，只是每次都郑重地告诫我不要摘花。一开始我还忍不住偷偷摘几朵赏玩，长大了些便注意到父亲和爷爷是那样小心翼翼地栽培每一棵花树，几近谦恭，只要看见开花便欣喜若狂，整日满足地在花下坐着，却完全没有要摘花的心思。

我很好奇，去问父亲：“自家的花开了，为什么也不摘?”

父亲刚喝了酒，闻言朗声笑道：“为什么要摘?花本来就该珍爱。”

是的，伴我成长的家风如此，教我学会珍爱，让我能够有一颗怜爱的心去面对自然，去尊重它，让我的灵魂轻松无比时也能够被它的回报的美丽的爱轻易打动，得到特别的快乐，更让我对生命，学着崇敬。

路边几株海棠点着头唱到：好花须得在枝头。

我仰面迎向春风，感觉到风托举来缕缕酒香，柔柔包裹我的身心，让我愉悦得将要翩翩飞舞起来。

是久酿的家风，那般醇绵。

每一张照片的背后都有一个故事，它们有可能是甜的，也有可能是苦的，还有可能是酸的。

-----题记

一天，我无意中发现了一张照片，上面有一个小女孩，正在笑嘻嘻的看这美丽的风景，她的背后是五颜六色花朵，在蓝天下显的更加漂亮。这个小女孩就是我。

每当我看到这张照片，都会想起我在森林公园的经过：

那是一个阳光明媚的好日子，我、妈妈、弟弟坐着33路公交车来到了森林公园。刚进去，我就被这美丽的景色吸引住了，我一会看看这，一会又看看那儿，百看不厌。我又来到了一条河的旁边，这里真是美丽，青青的草地上，有着五颜六色的小野花。我把饼干扔进去，不一会儿，便来了一大群鱼，它们争先恐后的抢着饼干吃。如果它们会飞的话，恐怕它们早就把饼干抢完了，我心里想。这么多鱼，其中我最喜弞的就是那条又肥大的鱼了，它的身体是肉色的，在鱼群中最显眼，我不断的向它扔饼干，不一会就把它吃完了。真能吃!我又向前走来到了水上娱乐区，这儿真是太好玩了，我把每样都玩了一遍，到莲花台的时候，我感到害怕了，不过，我还是一口气跑了过去，途中，我差点掉到水里，往左去，经过一座桥，我把香蕉拿出来，跑到一个大铁笼旁边的猴子看到我拿的香蕉，都非常小心，我看着猴子的手和我们的一模一样，就是有点黑。我把香蕉分成几小块，分给这些猴子们，有一只大猴子特别坏，我真想过去打它一顿，叫它还抢别人的东西。

我又来到了鸟语林，这里的鸟可真多，数都数不清，我经过鹦鹉长廊的时候，看见了好多不同颜色的鹦鹉，它们的大小还不同。在往前走，我看见了一种我从没见过的鸡---火鸡，它可真是难看，身子大大的，脖子细细的，下巴那没有毛，还有两块肉，太难看了，走了许久，我们就来到了鹦鹉表演场，就坐下来认真的看起来，当我看到鹦鹉做健美操的时候，我看呆了，自己的身子也动起来。

时间过的飞快，转眼间，我们就要离开了，到了大门口，我对妈妈说：“妈妈，给我照个相吧。”“好啊”，妈妈爽快的答应了。

妈妈拿着照相机，一、二、三茄子!照片照好了。看到这张照片，我就想到在森林公园玩耍的一天。这一张照片永远使我难忘。

在我的生活中，有高兴，有沮丧，也有伤心，当我成功的时候，我是高兴的。我五岁那年，我在电影里看见许多人都说自己是男子汉。于是我就问爸爸，什么是男子汉，爸爸告诉我男子汉是男生最光荣的称号。我又问道：“那怎样才能成为男子汉呢？”爸爸答道：“男子汉要遇到困难不退缩，有耐心……”虽然我听不太明白，但我还是明白了一点：男子汉要勇敢、坚强。第二天，我去和狗玩，可谁知，我一看见狗就提心吊胆，连气也不敢出。后来，我试了很多遍，终于成功了。高兴得又蹦又跳。

当我失败时，我是沮丧的。二年级时，妈妈要我必须拿到三好学生的奖状。我很有自信，觉得自己一定会拿到的。六一儿童节那天，我仔细听着老师读三好学生的名单，老师读完了，可是确没有听到我的名字。我垂头丧气地回家了。

当我被误解时，我是伤心的。妈妈很节约用水，有一天，爸爸喝水时，不小心掉了一些水在地上。妈妈看见了，以为是我干的，就打我。我的眼泪立刻涌了出来，我向妈妈说了事实，妈妈给我陪了不是。

啊！成长的经历真是丰富多彩，回味起来真是无比快乐啊！

Taiwan is part of our country It is the largest island in It has an area of about 36,000 square kilometers and a population of over 20 million It is separated from the mainland by the Taiwan Strait On the island the climate is mild and the resources are very rich Many, many centuries ago there were the Chinese who lived and worked in Taiwan In the 17th country the Dutch invaded Taiwan In 1661 an army under Zheng Chenggong drove out the Dutch

The time of middle school is short and precious, but for some students,

they sit in the class and dont show any passion to learn knowledge. They like

to do something that is against what teachers tell them to do. Such as when the

teacher is presenting knowledge, they choose to read novel, or when it is the

time for them to do some exercise, they sleep. They dont care about study. It

is so negative for them to treat study. We are young and should be full of

energy. It is the best time for us to gain knowledge. What we learn today will

help us to realize our dreams, so lets fight for our goals.

明天就要准备回家了，讲真，还是蛮不舍的，反正都要回去了，多替姥爷干点活才是正事！

一早起来，洗漱整装，然后进牛圈，赶牛出圈。平时做过六七次了，所以熟练到不行。我正充满干劲地打开门，迎面而来的是一只飞奔的小羊，正中我的膝盖。虽然不疼，但我，可是有自尊的！正准备到河边饮牛的姥爷过来了，我一把抱起小羊，放回羊圈，还一脸开心的说：“你看看，都跑出来了。”内心：“我从未见过有如此厚颜无耻之人！”

虽说牛是吃草的，牛粪也没啥味道，但是有些牛吧，非要把自己的屎拉到草里，这就又苦了我们几个了。大冬天的，牛粪跟草冻在一块了，还要把它与草用铲子分开，之后再铲到马车上，拉到粪堆。

干了估摸一个多小时吧，可算清完了里圈。接下来就是真正的主角出场了——一个月没清的外圈，看到堆积如山的牛粪时，我们脸上都是绝望的，么得办法，干就完了！

外面零下三多十度的寒风吹过来，带走了一片热血氛围。我正在推小车去粪堆，听见后面我妈叫了一声，急忙转身一看，这一看不要紧，小推车倒了。我：“妈，干啥？”我妈：“小心点，别倒了~”回头看了一眼满地的大块牛粪，默默拿起铲子，今天晚上我就要吃全牛！

一天的时间就这么出去了，清是清完了，桌子上也不负我们的期望，牛肉、猪肉、鸡肉……菜名都说不上来，只是眼花缭乱，鼻子都失去了作用，还说什么，开吃！

有一天，神王朱庇特说："所有动物听旨，如果谁对自己相貌形体有意见，今天可以提出来，我将想办法给予修正。"

神王对猴子说："猴子过来，你先说，你与他们比，觉得谁最美，你满意你的形象吗?"

猴子回答说："我的四肢完美，相貌至今也无可挑剔，十分地满意。比较而言，我的熊老弟长相粗笨，它若相信我的话，这辈子恐怕是不愿看见自己的模样了。"

这时，熊蹒跚地走上前来，大伙以为它会承认自己相貌不扬，谁知它却吹嘘自己外表，同时又在评论大象，说是尾巴太短，耳朵又太大，身体蠢笨得简直没有美感可言。

老实的大象听了此番话，言辞恳切地回答："以我的审美观来看问题，海中的鲸要比我肥胖多了。"

这时细小的蚂蚁抢着说：微生物是那么的小，和它们比，我可是一个巨人。

这些动物在宫中互相指责，却没有一个肯说自己的不是之处，神王朱庇特只好挥手让它们退下。

正像这些动物一样，我们人在这一点上表现得更加突出，看别人的表现，鸡蛋里能挑出骨头;看自己则是再丑也是自己的孩子好。我们容忍自己却不会宽容别人，就像戴上了一副变色镜。好比万能的造物主给我们每人做了个装东西的褡裢，古往今来，人们总是习惯把自己的缺点藏在褡裢后面的口袋里，而把前面的口袋留着装别人的缺点。

有一个富翁，年纪大了，他知道自己将不久于人世。

他回顾一生，想想有什么未了之事，忽然想到在保险柜里，还有很多亲戚朋友的借据。这些钱已经借出多年，那些亲友依然贫困。

为让子孙避免日后的困扰，富翁决定在临终前，自己处理这批债务。

他约集了所有欠债的亲友，自己倚在床边的靠背上，床前摆着取暖的炭炉，炉火烧得正旺。

富翁手拿大叠借据，对欠债的亲友说：“我自知时日不多，也知道你们没有能力偿还欠我的钱。为了避免困扰，今天，你们只要真心说一句感激的话，我就把借据当面烧掉，从此两不相欠。”

从欠债最少的开始，第一个人说：“来世我愿做您的仆人，为您打扫庭院。”

富翁将那个人的借据放在炭炉里烧了。

接着，有人说：“来世我将变鸡变狗，为您日夜守候。”

富翁微笑着将那人的借据烧了。

还有人说：“来世我将做牛做马，为您耕田拉车。”

富翁含笑，把一张借据烧了。

又有人说：“来世我愿做您的儿孙，永远孝顺您。”

富翁开怀大笑，烧了借据。

他们一一说出内心感激的话，富翁也感到满意。到了最后，只剩下一个欠债最多的人，他诚惶诚恐地上前说：“来世，我一定要做您的爸爸。”

富翁听了非常生气，反问他：“你为什么不感谢我，反而骂我呢？”

“老爷，您有所不知，这世间一切的债都有还清之日，只有儿女的债是永远还不清的呀。”

富翁笑了，烧掉最后一张借据，在床上安然而逝。

“书是人类提高的阶梯。”“书是知识的源泉。”书伴随着我成长，是我每一天必补的营养品。书的格言像一首歌，时时在我的耳畔回响，在我的心海荡漾。

《龟兔赛跑》的故事一个耳熟能详的伊索寓言，但又有谁能认真去体会其中的含义呢这个星期，我又细细回味了这个经典的寓言故事。

这个故事讲的是春天到了，森林里的小动物们都出来玩。一只小白兔看见乌龟在慢慢吞吞的缓慢的行走，不禁骄傲起来，想要与乌龟来一次赛跑。骄傲的小白兔并不把与乌龟的这场比赛放在眼里，而把这场比赛当作是一种消遣，只想好好奚落乌龟一番。小白兔在比赛时睡着了，乌龟坚持不懈，始终如一的勤奋努力，最终超过小白兔，抵达终点，戴上了为比赛准备的美丽花环。

从这个故事我想到了一滴水是很软弱的。但只要朝着一个方向不段地滴落下去，最终能把坚硬的石头击穿。这正如一位伟大的人物说过的那样:“在科学道路上是没有平坦道路可走的，仅有在坎坷山路攀登不畏劳苦的人，才有期望到达光辉的顶点。”在学习求知的漫长岁月中，人的智力有高有低;但只要持之以恒，一步一个脚印地走下去，就必须能够取得优异的成绩，成为有用之才。相反，那些具有天赋的智力较高的人，假如仅凭一时热情，不做长远的努力，最终只能落在别人的后头，成为一知半解的人。这个故事的寓意是仅有坚持不懈，始终如一的勤奋努力，才能抵达胜利的终点。

天才在于积累，成功在于勤奋，这点对于每个人都是一样。我们要懂得坚持不懈，勤奋努力，始终有一天成为国家的栋梁!

《伊索寓言》一书里面有许多故事每一个寓言都让我明白许多启迪我一生的道理。我相信我能做，我要做一个真正的人。不是为社会蒙羞，而是凭我的实力和执著为社会奉献自我的一份力量。如果每个人都如此，那末来祖国的明天将一片光明。

My father doesnt talk much. Though he is not funny, he loves me very much.

Last week, he travelled for business and when he came home, he took out a box

and brought me a nice present. I was so happy. He always remembered to bring me

some surprises. It was a special notebook and I could use it to write

diaries.

winter vacation short and follow ones inclinations, should be playing at the

because learning busy and have no spare time to read reference books. Winter

Perhaps autumn is the most pleasant season of the year. The weather is neither too hot nor too cold. It is the best time for going on a trip.

I always dream about returning to the past. As many people say, childhood is the happiest and easiest time in one’s life.

Children show you their true emotions. They know what is compassion and what is tolerance better than adults. In their world, all real thoughts are presented. They may easily have different opinions with others, but they never understand what is animosity. They enjoy making friends but they never think about making social communication net. Every child talks from the bottom of his heart without evil plans hidden and never intrigues against each other. Only in children’s way can adults make our life simple, more real and more enjoyable.

I wish everyone’s heart would keep as innocent and lovely as they ever did in their childhood. Then, the walls between our hearts can be broken down and the world would be a better place to live in.

Today, the teacher took us to zhongshan park. Here, everyone was so happy! In the autumn of talking and laughing on the road, like a happy little sparrow.

We went to the zhongshan park, there are two stone lions see stone road on both sides, terrible squatting at the door.

Upward along the stone path, see stone road on both sides of the yellow and green leaves, the autumn wind blows, the falling pieces of leaves, like a butterfly dancing in. We quickly climb halfway up. See below flickering skyscrapers, the car on the road is the size of a pencil case. Walk to the top of the hill, Chen teacher gave us a good team, we all sat on the bench, bathed in the warm autumn sunshine, laughing, and eating their food, and you gave me to eat, I eat for you. Really is happy!

The teacher took a photograph, we took our laughing faces, leaving the autumn the best memories.

在炎热的夏天，蚂蚁们仍是辛勤的工作着，每天一大早便起床，紧接着一个劲儿的工作。

蟋蟀呢?天天“叽哩叽哩，叽叽、叽叽”的唱着歌，游手好闲，养尊处优的过日子。

每一个地方都有吃的东西，满山遍野正是花朵胜开的时候，真是个快乐的夏天啊!蟋蟀对蚂蚁的辛勤工作感到非常奇怪。“喂!喂!蚂蚁先生，为什么要那么努力工作呢?偶尔稍微休息一下，像我这样唱唱歌不是很好吗?”

可是，蚂蚁仍然继续工作着，一点也不休息地说：“在夏天里积存食物，才能为严寒的冬天作准备啊!”

“我们实在没有多余的时间唱歌、玩耍!”

蟋蟀听蚂蚁这么说，就不再理蚂蚁。“啊!真是笨蛋，干么老想那么久以后的事呢!”

快乐的夏天结束了，秋天也过去了，冬天终于来了，北风呼呼的吹着，天空中下着绵绵的雪花。

蟋蟀消瘦的不成样子，到处都是雪，一点食物都找不到。

“我若像蚂蚁先生，在夏天里贮存食物该多好啊!”

蟋蟀眼看就要倒下来似的，蹒跚的走在雪地上。

一直劳动着的蚂蚁，冬天来了也不在乎。积存了好多食物，并且建了温暖的家。

当蟋蟀找到蚂蚁的家时，蚂蚁们正快乐的吃着东西呢!

“蚂蚁先生，请给我点东西好吗?我饿的快要死了!”

蚂蚁们吓了一跳。“咦!你不是在夏天里见过面的蟋蟀先生吗?你在夏天里一直唱着歌，我们还以为你到了冬天会是在跳舞呢!来吧!吃点东西，等恢复健康，在唱快乐的歌给我们听好吗?”

面对着善良亲切的蚂蚁们，蟋蟀忍不住留下欣喜的眼泪。

Dear Freshmen,

I, the undersigned, am a senior in the Computer Science Department of Tsinghua University. I would like to say a few words to you, which I hope would be helpful to you.

To begin with, the change of ideas is of most importance for freshmen to adapt themselves to campus life. During the middle school days, we usually depend upon our teachers at school and parents at home.

However, the life and study on university campus features independence, which is essential to our psychological development. In my view, we had better always bear in mind the idea of independence.

What’s more, English learning is a must. On one hand, without CET 4 certificate, we can not get our degree when we graduate from university. On the other hand, when we hunt for job, English level is a deciding factor. Therefore, I do hope that all of you will have a good understanding of the necessity of learning English well.

Good Luck to you!

Sincerely Yours

一只狮子看见一头吧壮的公牛正在吃草，一想到这是一顿美味佳肴，口水禁不住就流了出来，可是他又畏惧公牛的尖角，不敢轻易发起进攻。然而，饥饿促使他一定要做点什么。单凭武力，他肯定无法成功，于是狮子决定用诡计智取。他带着友好的姿态走到公牛身旁，对公牛说：“简直无法用语言来表达我对您那魔鬼般的身材有多羡慕，这是多／漂亮的头呀，多／宽阔结实的肩膀和大腿呀！不过，亲爱的朋友，宄竟是什么让你戴着这两只奇丑无比的角呢？你一定也发现了，它们又笨拙又丑陋。相信我，若是没有了这两只角，你肯定会更好。”公牛也够蠢的，竟然被这番恭维所说服，把自己的两只角折断了，刚刚失去用以防卫的武器，公牛就轻易地被狮子虏获了。

Dear Mary,

Thanks for your last letter. Im so glad that you have been able (at last! ) to arrange a holiday in Australia. As I fear I wont be able to meet you at the airport when you arrive, nor will I be able to be home until later in the afternoon, so here are some instructions and suggestions.

There is a bus from the airport to the city. It is much cheaper than a cab. Take the bus to the city and ask to get off at Town Hall railway station.

To get to my place in the eastern suburbs you have three options. You can either take a cab, a bus or the train. I suggest you take the train, since the airport bus will leave you right at the station. Get off at Cliff Station. From there you can either walk to my place (about ten minutes) or take a taxi. Probably you should take a taxi as you will have luggage.

When you arrive at my flat, ring the intercom for Flat 2. My friend Lillian will be at home and she will open the front door for you and let you into my flat.

Presumably you will be tired and want to sleep. But if you feel like some exercise after that long flight, you could stroll down to Cooper Park, which is only ten minutes away ? you can see it from the window.

Cheers and looking forward to seeing you.

Yours sincerely,

Annie
