Plug one's ears while stealing a bell(掩耳盗铃)完整的英语,后面有中文意思:)~
In the Spring and Autumn period, a thief had stolen a bell and intended to carry it away on his back, but the bell was too bulky and heavy to be carried, so he tried to break it into pieces with a hammer to make it easier for carrying. On his first hit, however, the bell made a loud noise. He thus feared that the ringing sound might be heard by someone, who would come to rob him of his bell. His fright made him plug his own ears, while hitting the bell with the hammer. The bell sound was, nevertheless, audible to others and therefore to stuff his ears for the purpose of stealing a bell was a stupid action it is as foolish as burying one's head in the sand.
from Huai Nanzi(淮南子著)
掩耳盗铃
在春秋战国时期,有一个小偷偷了一只钟。他准备把钟扛在背上带走。可是钟又大又沉,很难扛走。因此他想用锤子把钟敲成碎片,这样运起来就能多了。可是,他敲了一下,那只钟发出巨大的响声。他怕别人听到了钟声会来抢他的钟,于是他在锤子敲钟时捂上了自己的耳朵。不过,即使他这样做,别人还是听得到钟声的。所以掩耳盗铃是非常愚蠢的行为,就像把头埋在沙子中一样。
(淮南子著)
2. 英语谚语故事
一只猫的生命哲学:The Zen of Cat原来很大的道理不一定需要很难的语言去解释,本文简单地一问一答告诉我们,当身边的人离去时,他们其实活在我们的心里;告诉我们,生命原本是一个无所谓开始更无所谓结束的圆圈;告诉我们,每一段生命的结束都意味着新生命的开始。
只要心中还有爱,有思念,我们就可以笑对生死,珍惜人生。——题记 The Man was very sad. He knew that the Cat's days were numbered.The doctor had said there wasn't anything more that could be done,that he should take the Cat home and make him as comfortable as possible. The man stroked the Cat on his lap and sighed.The Cat opened his eyes, purred and looked up at the Man. A tear rolled down the Man's cheek and landed on the Cat's forehead.The Cat gave him a slightly annoyed look. “Why do you cry, Man?”the Cat asded.“Because you can't bear the thought of losing me? Because you think you can never replace me?”The Man nodded “yes.” “And where do you think I'll be when I leave you?”the Cat asked. The Man shrugged helplessly. “Close your eyes, Man,” the Cat said. The Man gave him a questioning look, but did as he was told. “What color are my eyes and fur?” the Cat asked. “Your eyes are gold and your fur is a rich, warm brown,” the Man replied. “And where is it that you most often see me?”asked the Cat. “I see you…on the kitchen windowsill watching the birds…on my favorite chair…on my desk lying on the papers I need…on the pillow next to my head at night.” “Then, whenever you wish to see me, all you must do is close your eyes,” said the Cat. “Pick up that piece of string from the floor——there, my 'toy.'” The Man opened his eyes, then reached over and picked up the string. It was about two feet long and the Cat had been able to entertain himself for hours with it. “Now take each end of the string in one hand,” the Cat ordered. The Man did so. “The end in your left hand is my birth and the end in your right hand is my death. Now bring the two ends together,” the Cat said. The Man complied. “You have made a continuous circle,” said the cat.“Does any point along the string appear to be different, worse or better than any other part of the string?” The Man inspected the string and then shook his head “no.” “Close your eyes again,” the Cat said.“Now lick your hand.” The Man widened his eyes in surprise. “Just do it,” the Cat said.“Lick your hand,think of me in all my familiar places, think about all the pieces of string.” The Man felt foolish, licking his hand, but he did as he was told. He discovered what a cat must know, that licking a paw is very calming and allows one to think more clearly. He continued licking and the corners of his mouth turned upward into the first smile he had shown in days. He waited for the Cat to tell him to stop,and when he didn't, he opened his eyes. The Cat's eyes were closed.The Man stroked the warm, brown fur, but the Cat was gone. The Man shut his eyes hard as the tears poured down his face. He saw the Cat on the windowsill, then in his bed, then lying across his important papers. He saw him on the pillow next to his head, saw his bright gold eyes and darkest brown on his nose and ears. He opened his eyes and through his tears looked over at the circle of string he still held clutched in his hand. One day, not long after, there was a new Cat on his lap. She was a lovely calico and white…very different from his earlier beloved Cat and very much the same. 男人非常伤心。
他知道猫余下的日子不多了。医生说已经没得治了,他只能把猫带回家,并尽可能地让他在剩下的时间里过得舒服些。
男人把猫放在腿上,叹了口气。猫睁开眼睛,呼噜呼噜地叫着,抬眼看了看男人。
一滴眼泪从男人的脸颊边滑落,落在了猫的额头上。猫有点不高兴地看了他一眼。
“你哭个什么啊,伙计?”猫问道,“因为你无法承受将要失去我的念头?因为你认为永远都没有什么能代替我?”男人点了点头。“是啊。”
“那么你认为我离开你以后,会到什么地方去了呢?”猫问道。男人无望地耸了耸肩。
“闭上眼睛吧,伙计,”猫说。男人疑惑地看了他一眼,但还是听话地闭上了眼睛。
“我的眼睛和毛皮是什么颜色的?”猫问。“你的眼睛是金色的,你的毛皮是浓郁而温暖的褐色的。”
男人回答道。 “那你最常在什么地方见到我呢?”猫问。
“我经常见到你……在厨房地窗台上看鸟……在我最喜欢的椅子上……躺在桌子上我需要用的文件上……晚上睡在我脑袋边的枕头上。”“那么,无论什么时候你想见我,你只要闭上你的眼睛就可以了。”
猫说。 “把地上的那段绳子捡起来——那里,我的‘玩具’。”
男人睁开眼睛,伸手捡起了绳子。绳子大约有两英尺(约0.6米)。
3. 英语谚语故事50字 儿童
谚语可以在五十个字以内,但是故事就不行了,我试一下: 先说谚语: ”一切财物如不使用等于没有。
“ 再说故事(也就是这则谚语的来源)3.The Miser 守财奴 A MISER sold all that he had and bought a lump of gold, which he buried in a hole in the ground by the side of an old wall and went to look at daily. One of his workmen observed his frequent visits to the spot and decided to watch his movements. He soon discovered the secret of the hidden treasure, and digging down, came to the lump of gold, and stole it. The Miser, on his next visit, found the hole empty and began to tear his hair and to make loud lamentations. A neighbor, seeing him overcome with grief and learning the cause, said, " raydo not grieve so; but go and take a stone, and place it in the hole, and fancy that the gold is still lying there. It will do you quite the same service; for when the gold was there, you had it not, as you did not make the slightest use of it." 有个守财奴变卖了他所有的家产,换回了金块,并秘密地埋在一个地方。他每天走去看 看他的宝藏。
有个在附近放羊的牧人留 心观察,知道了真情,趁他走后,挖出金块拿走了。 守财奴再来时,发现洞中的金块没有了,便捶胸痛哭。
有个人见他如此悲 痛,问明原因后, 说道:“喂,朋友,别再难过了,那块金子虽是你买来的,但并不是你真正拥有的。去拿一 块石头来,代替金块放在洞里,只要你心里想着那是块金子,你就会很高兴。
这样与你拥有 真正的金块效果没什么不同。依我之见,你拥有那 金块时,也从没用过。
不知道可否?敬请参考。

7. 英语的谚语故事
1、The Wolf and the Lamb A WOLF, meeting with a Lamb astray from the fold, resolved not to lay violent hands on him, but to find some plea to justify to the Lamb the Wolf's right to eat him. He thus addressed him: "Sirrah, last year you grossly insulted me." "Indeed," bleated the Lamb in a mournful tone of voice, "I was not then born." Then said the Wolf, "You feed in my pasture." "No, good sir," replied the Lamb, "I have not yet tasted grass." Again said the Wolf, "You drink of my well." "No," exclaimed the Lamb, "I never yet drank water, for as yet my mother's milk is both food and drink to me." Upon which the Wolf seized him and ate him up, saying,"Well! I won't remain supperless, even though you refute everyone of my imputations." The tyrant will always find a pretext for his tyranny. 2、The Bat and the Weasels A BAT who fell upon the ground and was caught by a Weasel pleaded to be spared his life. The Weasel refused, saying that he was by nature the enemy of all birds. The Bat assured him that he was not a bird, but a mouse, and thus was set free. Shortly afterwards the Bat again fell to the ground and was caught by another Weasel, whom he likewise entreated not to eat him. The Weasel said that he had a special hostility to mice. The Bat assured him that he was not a mouse, but a bat, and thus a second time escaped. It is wise to turn circumstances to good account. 3、The Lion and the Mouse A LION was awakened from sleep by a Mouse running over his face. Rising up angrily, 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 st ropes to the ground. The Mouse, recognizing his roar, came gnawed the rope with his teeth, and set him free, exclaim "You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favor; I now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to con benefits on a Lion." 4、The Father and His Sons A FATHER had a family of sons who were perpetually quarreling among themselves. When he failed to heal their disputes by his exhortations, he determined to give them a practical illustration of the evils of disunion; and for this purpose he one day told them to bring him a bundle of sticks. When they had done so, he placed the faggot into the hands of each of them in succession, and ordered them to break it in pieces. They tried with all their strength, and were not able to do it. He next opened the faggot, took the sticks separately, one by one, and again put them into his sons' hands, upon which they broke them easily. He then addressed them in these words: "My sons, if you are of one mind, and unite to assist each other, you will be as this faggot, uninjured by all the attempts of your enemies; but if you are divided among yourselves, you will be broken as easily as these sticks." 5、A CHARCOAL-BURNER carried on his trade in his own house. One day he met a friend, a Fuller, and entreated him to come and live with him, saying that they should be far better neighbors and that their housekeeping expenses would be lessened. The Fuller replied, "The arrangement is impossible as far as I am concerned, for whatever I should whiten, you would immediately blacken again with your charcoal." Like will draw like.。

To Pull up the Seedlings to Help Them Grow
once upon a time, an old farmer planted a plot of rice. Everyday he went to the field to watch the seedlings grow. He saw the young shoots break through the soil and grow taller each day. But still, he thought they were growing too slowly. He got impatient with the young plants. "How could the plants grow faster?" He tossed in bed during the night and could not sleep. Suddenly he hit upon an idea. He had an idea not wait for daybreak. He jumped out of the bed and dashed to the field. By the moonlight, he began working on the rice seedlings. One by one, he pulled up the young plants by half an inch. When he finished pulling, it was already morning. Straightening his back, he said to himself, "What a wonderful idea! Look, how much taller the plants have grown one night!" With great satisfaction, he went back home. He told his son what he had done in a triumphant tone. His son was shocked. Now the sun had risen. The young man was heart-broken to see all the pulled-up young plants dying.
People now use " Ba Miao Zhu Zhang" to describe the behavior of those who are too eager to get something done only to make it worse. The idiom is a bit like the English proverb "Haste makes waste" ------to spoil things by excessive enthusiasm.
从前,有个农夫,种了稻苗后,便希望能早早收成。每天他到稻田时,发觉那些稻苗长得非常慢。
他等得不耐烦,心想:“怎么样才能使稻苗长得高,长很快呢?
想了又想,他终了想到一个“最佳方法”,就是将稻苗拨高几分。
经过一番辛劳后,他满意地扛锄头回家休息。心想:明天稻苗长得一定更高了。
隔天早晨.一早起身,他迫不及待地起去稻田看他的“成果”。
哪知,他跑到稻田时,却看到所有的稻苗都枯萎了
