小灰兔请客

小灰兔的新房子终于盖好了，它总算可以在暖暖的被窝里睡觉，漫长的冬季不再寒冷。小灰兔决定要在新房里宴请小伙伴，因为是小伙伴们帮助它一砖一瓦、不辞辛苦，提前让它住进了温暖的家。

在一个晴朗的周末，小灰兔的好朋友们兴高采烈地相约而至。咚咚咚，敲门声刚落下，房门缓慢的打开了，原来小灰兔早已迫不及待的要迎接它们了。小猴子又蹦又跳地先钻了进去，小白狗摇着尾巴紧随其后，小花猫迈着轻巧的步伐跟进，最后是小山羊不紧不慢的走进了房间，哇塞！它们瞬间被眼前美丽的画面惊呆了。五颜六色的墙面上挂着几幅风景优美的水彩画，屋顶是一簇簇编织如花朵般的胡萝卜，周围铺垫着青草做装扮，不仅美化的房间，还能储备冬粮，造型各异的家具美观而且实用，餐桌上已摆满了丰盛的食物，与房间整体效果浑然天成，宛如置身于一个美轮美奂的童话世界。小猴子瞪着着眼镜、小狗伸着舌头、小花猫翘起了尾巴，小山羊惊讶的合不拢嘴，它们异口同声的问道：“这么美丽的房间都是你自己装扮的吗？”小灰兔很自豪的回答道：“是的，我用了好几天时间才把房间布置成了这样，虽然很辛苦，但是值得。”看着大家纷纷投来羡慕的眼光，小灰兔又忽然红着脸，满怀着感激说道：“能住进这么美丽温暖的房子，首先应该感谢朋友们的热情相助，没有你们的帮忙，我不会住上

这么宽敞明亮的房子，有你们这些好朋友才是我最开心的，我会珍惜这份友谊，并且会无私的帮助那些需要帮助的好朋友。”

这个故事告诉我们一个道理，要主动热情去帮助那些需要帮助的人，在别人的有困难的时候，真诚付出，不计回报，没有怨言，这样才将爱传递下去。

第二篇：英语童话小故事

童话：海的女儿（一）

Far out in the sea the water is very, very blue. You can see through it like glass. Far down in the water there are beautiful trees and plants. These trees and plants are so far from the top of the water that no one can see them. Fishes go in and out of the trees just like birds. This is the place where the Sea King’s city is.

The Sea King’s wife died many years before, so his old mother looked after him. She loved the Sea King’s six children very much, and they loved their grandmother, too. These six children were beautiful princesses. The youngest princess was the most beautiful: her eyes were as blue as the sea and her body was white like a rose. But, like all her sisters, she had no feet. The top of her body was like a girl’s body; and the rest of her body was like the body of a fish.

The six princesses often played all day in the big rooms inside the Sea King’s house. Beautiful flowers GREw out of the walls on all sides of them. When the windows were opened, fishes would go into the rooms just like birds come into our rooms. But the fishes were braver than birds They went up to the little princesses to eat food from their hands.

In front of the Sea King’s house there was a large garden full of red plants and blue plants. The flowers of these plants were like the burning sun. There was a blue light over the garden; you would think that you were up in the sky — not down in the sea.

Each of the little princesses had her own little garden inside the large

garden. They could plant the flowers, which they themselves liked the most. The youngest princess planted red flowers in the garden, and she planted a red tree near the flowers. She was not at all like her sisters.

在海洋的远处，水很蓝很蓝，你能象隔着玻璃一样，看透它。水底深处有美丽的树木和植物。这些树木和植物离水面很远，谁也看不到它们。鱼儿在树木间游来游去，就象鸟儿在天空飞翔一样。海王的城市就在这个地方。

海王的的妻子死了很多年了，他的老母亲照顾他。她非常喜爱海王的六个孩子。她们也爱她们的祖母。这六个小孩都是美丽的公主。最小的公主最美丽，她的眼睛象海一样蓝，她的身体像玫瑰一样白。不过，她和姐姐们一样，没有腿。她的上半截象一个姑娘的身体，下半截却象一条鱼的身体。

六个公主常常整天在海王王宫的大厅里游玩。这些大厅墙壁周围长满了鲜花。窗户开着的时候，鱼儿会游入室内，就象鸟儿会飞进我们的房间一样。不过鱼儿比鸟儿勇敢，它们游到小公主跟前，吃她们手里的食物。

在海王宫殿前面有一个很大的花园，里面长满了红色的和蓝色的植物。这些植物上的花朵象燃烧着的太阳。花园中闪耀着蓝色的光芒，你会以为这是在空中，而不是在海底。在这个大花园里，每位小公主都有一个自己的小花园，她们可以栽种自己最喜欢的花卉。最年幼的公主在她的花园里种上红色，靠近这些花，又种了一棵红树。她一点儿也不象她的姐姐们。

童话：海的女儿（二）

The little princess loved to hear about people who were not the same as she was. These people have feet and did not live in the sea: they lived on land. She made her grandmother tell her everything she knew about ships, cities, and men. She was very pleased when she heard that the flowers on land had a lovely smell: the flowers in the sea had no smell at all. She was very pleased, too, when she heard that the small fishes in the sky could sing. The old lady was speaking about birds, but she called

them fishes because the little princesses did not know about birds. "When you are fifteen years old, you can go to the top of the sea, " their grandmother said. "You will then sit at night and see the ships go by. And you will know about cities and men. "

The next year the oldest of the sisters would be fifteen. She was very happy, but the other sisters were unhappy. They could not go to the top of the sea. The oldest sister said that she would tell them about everything that she saw.

But none of the sisters wanted to go so much as the youngest sister wanted to go. On many nights she stood by the open window, looking up through the blue water. She could see the sun and it looked very big to her. If a ship went by up there, above her, she thought that it must be a very big fish.

The day now came when the oldest of the princess was fifteen and could go to the top of the sea.

When she came back she had many things to tell.

这个小公主喜欢听跟自己不同的人类的故事。这些人有腿，不在海里生活，他们在陆地上生活。她让祖母把她所知道的一切有关船只、城市和人类的知识告诉她。当她听到地上的花儿有好闻的香味时，她很高兴。海里的花儿一点香味也没有。当她听说天上的小鱼儿会唱歌时，她也很高兴。老太太说的是鸟儿，不过她管它们叫鱼儿，因为小公主不知道什么叫鸟儿。

“等你到你们满十五岁的时候，你们可以浮到海面上去。”她们的老祖母说，“你们晚上坐在那儿，看船只在身旁驶过去，你们就知道城市和人的一些事。

再过一年，最大的姐姐就满十五岁了，她很高兴，但其她的姐妹却不愉快。她们不能到海面上去。大姐姐说，她会把她看到的一切讲给她们听。可是，在姐妹中谁也没有象最年幼的妹妹那样，想上去想得那么厉害。有很多夜晚，她站在开着的窗口，透过蓝色的海水，朝上凝望。她看到太阳，对她来说，太阳看起来是那么大。如果一条船从她上方的海面驶过，她会以为那是一条很大的鱼。这一天来到了，最大的公主满十五岁，可以升到海面上去了。 她回来的时候，有许多事情要讲。

童话：海的女儿（三）

"The thing which I liked to do the most was to look at a large city, " she said. "The city was near the sea and there were many lights. I heard people singing and men speaking. I saw big houses and I heard bells ringing. And I wanted to go into the city."

The youngest princess wanted to hear about everything again. The next night when she stood by the open window and looked up through the sea, she thought she could hear the bells ringing.

The next year another sister became fifteen and went to the top of the sea.

She went there just as the sun was going down in the sky at night.

"This was more beautiful than any other thing I ever saw, " she told her sisters when she came back. "The sky was golden, and I cannot tell you how beautiful it was."

It was soon time for another sister to go to the top of the sea. She was the bravest of the six, and she went up a river. She saw hills with woods and houses and she heard the birds singing. Many children were jumping in the water. Then a little dog ran after her. She became afraid and went back to the sea.

"Nothing can be more beautiful, " she said when she came back home. "I have seen ships on the water: they were so far away that they looked like white birds."

译文：

“我最喜欢做的事就是凝视一座大城市。”她 说，“这座城就在海边，那里灯火辉煌。我听到人 们在歌唱，我听到男人们在讲话。 我看到高大的 房屋，听到钟声叮当响。 我真希望到这个城市去。最小的公主希望统统再听一遍。第二天晚上， 她站在开着的窗户边，透过海水朝上望着的时候， 她认为她能够听到钟的响声。

第二年，另一个姐姐满十五岁，浮到海面上去 了。她升到水面上的时候，太阳在黄昏的空中刚刚 下落。

她回来以后，告诉姐妹们说：“这比我看到过 的任何东西都美丽。天空是金黄色的，我无法形容 它有多美。”

不久，另一个姐姐该到海面上去了。她是六姐 妹中最大胆的一个，她游到一条河里去了。她看到 了有树木和房屋的小山，听到了鸟儿歌唱。许多孩 子在水里跳跃。这时，一条小狗来追逐她，她害怕起来，就回到大海。

“没有什么比停留在海上更美的事，”她回家 后说，“我看到了水里的船只。这些船太远了，看 上去象一些白鸟。”

海的女儿（四）

The year after this, another sister became fifteen. She went up to the top of the sea. But the water was cold and there was much snow everywhere on the land. She soon came back.

The five sisters were very happy when they went to the top of the sea to look at ships, cities, and men. But they did not remember these things for long. Their own home soon began to look more beautiful than anything which they saw at the top of the sea or on the land.

The five sisters went up to the top of the sea many times. They went hand in hand and they sang beautiful songs. When there was rain or snow, they went in front of the ships and sang to the people on the ships.

They sang, "Those who live down in the sea are so happy!" Then they told the people on the ships not to be afraid. "Come down to us, " they cried.

When the sisters went to the top of the sea at night, the youngest princess stayed in the father’s house, looking up at them. She wanted to cry, but sea people cannot cry. So they are more unhappy than the people on land.

"Oh, I want to be fifteen!" she said. "I know that I shall love the land and the people on it."

英语童话小故事：海的女儿（四）

一年以后，另一个姐姐满十五岁了。她升到海 面上，但水是冰冷的，陆地上到处都是雪，因而她很快就回来了。

这五个姐妹来到海面上看到了船只、城市和人 类，都觉得很开心，但她们并没永远记住这些事。 不久，她们觉得自己的家比她们在海面上或陆地上 看到的任何东西都美。

五个姐妹多次到海面上去，她们手挽着手唱着 好听的歌儿。下雨或下雪的时候，她们浮到船的面 前，对着船上的人们歌唱。

她们唱道：“住在海底多么幸福！”然后她们 告诉船上的人们不要害怕。“下来吧，到我们这儿来。”她们大声说。

当姐妹们晚上浮出海面的时候，最小的那位公 主待在她父亲的宫殿里瞧着她们。她想哭一场，不过海里的人是不会哭的，因此他们比陆地上的人更 加不幸。

“哦！我要是十五岁就好了！。”她说，“我 知道我会喜欢陆地和陆地上的人的。”

英文

At last she became fifteen.

"Now you can go to the top of the sea," said her grandmother.

When she went up to the top of the water, the sun was just going down. A big ship was on the sea. The men on the ship were singing. When night came, there were hundreds of lights on the ship.

The little sea princess went near the ship. She looked through the windows. She saw many richly dressed men; the most beautiful of them all was a young prince with big blue eyes. He was not much older than the sea princess herself. It was so light in the ship that everything could be seen. Oh! how happy the young prince was!

The little sea princess could not go away from the ship and the beautiful young prince. She stayed looking through the window of the ship. The ship began to go more quickly through the water. There was a big noise and it began to rain. The big ship was thrown about from side to side. Water came into it.

The little sea princess thought that all this was very nice, but the people on the ship were afraid. All at once the ship broke. It went down in the sea.

The little sea princess looked for the young prince. For a time, she thought, "Now the prince must come to my city in the sea. " But she said, "Can men live in water? If the prince ever comes to my house, he maybe dead!"

"Die? No, he must not die!" she cried out.

She went quickly to the prince and held his head out of the water. His eyes were shut; he was nearly dead. She said, "I must save him!"

最后，她满十五岁了。“现在你可以到海面上去了。”她的祖母说。

当她升到海面上时，太阳刚刚下落。海上有一条大船，船上的人在歌唱。夜幕降临了，船上点着 几百盏灯。 小海公主向这条船游去。她透过窗户往里张望 ，看见许多服饰华丽的人；他们之中，最美的是那个有一对大蓝眼睛的年轻王子，他比海公主自己大不了多少。船里灯火辉煌，什么东西都看得清清楚

楚。哦！这位年轻的王子多么幸福啊！ 小海公主离不开这艘船和美貌而年轻的王子。 她待在那儿，透过船窗注视着里面的东西。船在水

里加快了速度。忽然一声巨响，天下起雨来。大船 左右摇晃，水涌进船舱。 小海公主觉得这一切都很有趣，但船上的人们 却很惊慌。突然间，船体破裂，沉下海去了。 小海公主找寻年轻的王子，她一度想道：“现 在王子会到我们的海中城市来了。”但她又说：“ 人能在水里生活吗？如果王子到我们家来，那他可 能已经死了！” “死？不成，他决不能死！”她叫了起来。 她很快地游到王子身边，把他的头拖出水面。 他的眼睛闭着，他快死了。她说：“我一定要救活 他！”

The young prince did not look for the sea princess. He did not know that she saved him. People came and took the prince into the house. The princess became very sad. She jumped into the water and went back to her father’s house down in the sea.

He sisters asked her, " What did you see?" But the little sea princess did not answer.

She went back many times to the big white house where she put the young prince. The snow went from the hills and flowers GREw up in the woods. But she never saw the prince. So she always went back sadly to her home in the sea. She did not even like her own garden any more.

At last she told the story to the other princesses, and they told it to their friends. One of these friends remembered the prince. She know the country where the prince lived.

"Come, little sister!" said the princesses. And they all went to the top of the water. They came out of the sea, arm in arm, just in front of the prince’s house.

She often stayed just stayed just outside one of the rooms and looked in at the young prince.

Sometimes she saw him in a little ship on the river. She then hid in the long grass near the side of the river. On one night she heared the fishermen talking about the prince. "He is so brave, "they said. She was very happy, for she remembered how she saved his life.

She GREw to like the people on the land more and more each day. She wanted to be one of them.They could go to so many places and they could do so many things. They could go over the sea in their ships; they could go to the top of the hills; and their woods and houses and gardens were so big.

There were many things that she wanted to know about, but her sisters could not tell her. Again she went to ask her grandmother.

"Do men live for ever?" she asked.

"They must die like us; but their life is not so long as ours, " answered the old grandmother. "We live for three hundred years. When we die, our bodies become water in the sea. We have no souls and we can never live again. People who live on the land have souls: their bodies die and become dust: but their souls do not die.

They go to a beautiful place in the sky."

"Why have we no souls?" asked the little sea princess. "I would not want to live for three hundred years if I had a soul. When my body died, I should be able to live for ever in that beautiful place in the sky."

这座宫殿是由白色的石块建筑的，公主们透过窗户往大房间里张望。房间富丽堂皇，只要看看这些房间，这六个海公主就非常高兴了。小海公主知道，这是她那年轻王子的宫殿，所以她每晚都到那儿去。她越游越靠近陆地，常常待在一间房子外面，瞧着那位年轻的王子。

有时候，她看到王子坐着小船在河上游玩，她就躲藏在河边的高高的草丛里。有一天晚上，她听到渔夫们谈到王子，他们说：“他真勇敢。”海公主很高兴，因为她回忆起她怎样救了他的命。

她渐渐越来越爱陆地上的人了。她想成为他们中的一个。他们可以到那么多的地方去，他们能做那么多的事情。他们能够乘自己的船在海上行驶，能爬高山顶端。他们的树林、房屋和花园又是那么宏大。

她想知道的事情很多，可是她的姐姐们都不能告诉她。她又去问她的祖母了。“人会永远活下去吗？”她问。

“他们和我们一样，也是要死的，但她们的寿命比我们还要短呢。”老祖母回答道，“我们能活到三百岁。等我们死了，我们的身体变成海里的水。我们没有灵魂，不能再活了。生活在陆地上的人有灵魂，他们的身体死后化成尘土，而他们的灵魂还活着，升到天上一个美丽的地方去。

“为什么我们没有灵魂？”小海公主问，“如果我有灵魂的话，我愿意放弃我能活三百岁的生命，等我的身体死去，我可以在天上美丽的世界得到永生。”

"You must not think of that," her grandmother answered. "We live longer and we are far happier than people on land."

But the little sea princess said, "If I die, I can never go to the top of the sea again. I can never hear the lovely noise of the sea, never again see the beautiful flowers and the sun! Tell me, grandmother, is there any way by which I can get a soul?"

The grandmother answered, "If a person on the land loves you more than his father or mother. If he says that he will love you for ever. Then his soul will go into your body. You can get a soul from a person on the land who loves you. But that can never be! The people on the land are not like us. They think that feet are beautiful!"

"I will go to the old woman who knows all about magic, " said the sea princess. "I have always been afraid of her, but she can help me."

The little sea princess looked sadly down. Most of her body was beautiful. Just like the bodies of people on the land. But she had no feet. There her body was like the body of a fish.

So the little sea princess went to the old woman.

There were many ugly plants round the old woman’s house; they had long arms; they caught everything that was near them. The little sea princess was afraid. She want to go back, but she remembered the prince. This made her brave

and she went by these ugly plants. She saw that the plants had dead people in their arms. At last she came to the old woman.

"I know what you want to ask me," She said to the little sea princess. "I shall give you what you want, but it will make you unhappy. You want me make all your body like the bodies of the land people. You want two feet, then a young prince may love you and you makeget a soul. I will make you something to drink. You must take it to the land. When you drink it, you will get two feet. Your body will become like the bodies of the land people. But the change will give you GREat pain. You will be very beautiful. But when you walk, you will hav much pain. Your feet will be very painful. Do you still want to become like the people on land?"

“你决不能这么想。”她祖母回答道，“我们的寿命比陆地上的人长，我们的生活比他们幸福。”但小海公主说：“要是我死了，我就再不能到海 面上去了。我再也听不到大海可爱的涛声，再也看不见美丽的花朵和太阳！告诉我，祖母，有什么办法让我得到一个灵魂？”

祖母回答道：“如果陆地上有一个有爱你，把你当作比父母还亲切的人。如果他说，他永远爱你。那

么，他的灵魂就会转移到你的身上，你可以从陆地上爱你的人那里得到一个灵魂。但是，这种事情是永远

不会有的！陆地上的人们不象我们，他们认为腿是美丽的！”

小海公主悲伤地向下看着。她身体的大部是美丽的，和陆地上的人的身体一样。但她没有腿，她的下

半身同鱼的身体一样。

“我要到那个懂得所有巫术的老巫婆那里去。”海公主说，“我一直怕她，但她可以帮助我。” 于是小海公主去找那个老巫婆。

老巫婆信的房子周围长着很多丑陋的植物。它们全有长长的手臂，捕捉附近的每样东西。小海公主害怕了。她想转身回去，但她想起了王子，就又有了勇气，穿过那些难看的植物。她看到在植物手臂里的死 人。最后她来到老巫婆住的地方。 “我知道你是来求我什么的。”她对小海公主说，“我会给你你所要的东西，可是这会使你痛苦的。你想叫我使你全身都和陆地的人类一样。你要两条腿，这样，年轻的王子就会爱你，而你可以得到一个灵 魂。我要让你喝一点东西，你必须把这东西带到陆地上去，喝下去以后，你就会有两条腿，你的身体就会 变得跟陆地上人类的身体一样了，但这种变化会使你非常疼。你会变得非常美，可是你一走路，就会疼， 你的脚非常疼。你是不是还要变成陆地上那样的人呢？”

"Yes, I do," the princess answered. She remembered her prince and the soul which she might get.

"You can never again become a sea princess. You will never get back your fish’s body. You can never go back to live with your sisters. The prince must love you so much that he will go away from his father and mother. If he does not marry you, you will die. The you will be changed to water in the sea."

"There is one more thing," said the old woman. "You now speak and sing very beautifully. When you are like the and people, you cannot speak and sing. You will not to be able to speak and sing."

"But how can I make the prince love me if I cannot speak to him?" the sea princess asked.

"Your beautiful body, the way you walk, and your speaking eyes," the old woman answered. "It will not be hard to make him love you. Do you still want me to make you like the land people?"

"Yes," said the little princess.

"Here is the magic drink," said the old woman. The little princess took it in her hand.

She went away from the old woman’s house.

She looked once again at her father’s house. There was no light in it: everyone was asleep. She did not want to go in. She was going away from her home for ever.

She was very sad. She went into the garden and took a flower from each of her sister’s little gardens. Then she went through the blue waters, up and up.

Before the sun came in the sky the sea princess went to the prince’s house. She drank the magic drink which the old woman gave to her. It ran through her body. Then it gave her GREat pain. She fell down and knew nothing more. When the sun came into the sky, she awoke. There was a burning pain in her arms and in her feet. But she saw the beautiful young prince standing near her.

“是的，我愿意。”公主回答道。她想起了她的王子，想起了她可能得到的灵魂。

“你再也不能变成海公主，再也不能有你的鱼身体，再也不能回来和你的姐妹们一同生活了。王子一

定非常爱你，不惜离开他的父母。如果他不能和你结婚，你就会死去。然后你就会变成海里的水。”

“我仍然愿意变得同陆地上的人一样。”小海公主说。

“还有一件事。“老巫婆说，“你现在说话和唱歌的声音都很优美，当你变得和陆地上的人一样的时

候，你就不会说话唱歌，你就不能说话和唱歌了。”

“如果我不能和王子说话，我怎么能使他爱我呢？”海公主问。

“你有美丽的身材呀，你走路的姿态呀，还有你富于表情能说话的眼睛呀。”老巫婆回答，“你很容

易让他爱上你，你是不是还要让我把你变成象陆地上的人那样呢？”

“是的。”海公主说。

“这是具有魔力的药水。“老巫婆说。小公主把它拿在手里。

她从老巫婆的屋子里走出来。

她再一次看看她父亲的宫殿。那儿没有灯光，人人都入睡了。她不想进去。她要永远离开自己的家了

，她很难过。她走进花园，从每个姐姐的小花园里摘下一朵花，然后穿过蓝色的水，浮上去，浮上去。

海公主游到王子的宫殿时，太阳还没有升起来。她把老巫婆给她的摩法药水喝了下去，药水流遍了她的全身，她疼痛难忍，晕倒在地上。太阳升起来的时候，她才苏醒过来。她的手臂和两腿火辣辣地痛。可
