Not long after an old Chinese woman came back to China from her visit to her daughter in

the States, she went to a city bank to deposit the US dollars her daughter gave her. At the bank

counter, the clerk checked each note carefully to see if the money was real. It made the old lady

out of patience.

At last she could not hold any more, uttering. "Trust me, Sir, and trust the money. They are

real US dollars. They are directly from America."

它们是从美国直接带来的

一位中国老妇人在美国看望女儿回来不久，到一家市银行存女儿送给她的美元。在银行

柜台，银行职员认真检查了每一张钞票，看是否有假。

钞票。这都是真正的美元，它们是从美国直接带来的。”

英语故事演讲稿 三

She kindled a third match. Again shot up the flame； and now she was sitting under a most

beautiful Christmas tree ,far larger, and far more prettily decked out, than the one she had seen

last Christmas eve through the glass doors of the rich merchant's house. Hundreds of wax-tapers

lighted up the green branches, and tiny painted figures, such as she had seen in the

shop-windows, looked down from the tree upon her. The child stretched out her hands towards

them in delight, and in that moment the lights of the match warm quenched； still, however, the

Christmas candles burned higher and higher， she beheld them beaming like stars in heaven；

one of them fell, the lights streaming behind it like a long, fiery tail.

“Now some one is dying,” said the little girl, softly, for she had been told by her old

grandmother， the only person who had ever been kind to her, and who was now dead that

whenever a star falls an immortal spirit returns to the God who gave it.

She struck yet another match against the wall； it flamed up, and surrounded by its light,

appeared before her that same dear grandmother, gentle and loving as always, but bright and

happy as she had never looked during her lifetime.

她擦着了第三根火柴，又冒出了火焰。现在她觉得正坐在非常美丽的圣诞树下面，比上

次圣诞节透过那富商家的玻璃门看到的那株还要大、还要美。这株树的绿枝上点燃着许许多

多的蜡烛，颜色瑰丽的图画，就象橱窗里挂着的那些一样漂亮，仿佛在向她眨眼。小姑娘把

两只手伸过去，火柴又熄灭了。然而圣诞树上的烛光越升越高。她看到它们变成了明亮的星

星，有一颗落下来，在天上划出一道长长的火丝。

“现在又有一个什么人死了。”小姑娘说。因为她的老祖母——一个唯一待她好的人，

现在已经死了，曾经告诉过她，天上落下一颗星，地上就有一个灵魂回到曾赋于他生命的上

帝那里去。

她在墙上又擦了一根火柴，火光把四周照亮了。在亮光里，亲爱的和生前一样的祖母出

现了。她依然是那么的慈爱和温和，然而那快活和幸福的样子却是她生前从未有过的

英语故事演讲稿 But the teacher cried

The six-year-old John was terribly spoiled . His father knew it, but his grandma doted on him.

He hardly left her side. And when he wanted anything, he either cried or threw a temper tantrum.

Then came his first day of school, his first day away from his grandmother's loving arms.

When he came home from school his grandma met him at the door.

"Was school all right?" she asked, "Did you get along all right? did you cry?"

"Cry?" John asked. "No, I didn't cry, but the teacher did!"

可是老师哭了

六岁的约翰娇生惯养。他的父亲知道这一点，可他的祖父母仍然宠着他。这孩子几乎寸

步不离他的祖母。他想要什么不是哭，就是闹。他第一天上学才离开祖母的怀抱。

约翰放学了，他奶奶在门口接他并问道：“学校怎么样？你过的好吗？哭了没有？”

“哭？”约翰问，“不，我没哭，可老师哭了。”

It was rush hour and I was dashing to a train in New York City's Grand Central Terminal - As I

Before I could help her, however, she had scrambled up. Gaining her composure, she winked at

me and said, "Do you always have beautiful women failing at your feet?"

网。）

there were two high mountains between Jizhou in the south and Heyang in the north. One was

called Taihang Mountain and the other Wangwu Mountain. Both of the mountains were very

high.

Just to the north of the mountains lived an old man called Yu Gong who was nearly 90 years

old. With the two high mountains just in front of his house, his family and he had to walk a long

way around the mountains whenever they had something to do on the other side of the

mountains.

在冀州的南面，河阳的北面，有两座巍峨的大山，一座是太行，一座是王屋，方圆七百

里，有万丈高。

山的北边住着年近90的愚公。由于家门被山挡住，每次外出全家人都要绕过大山，多

走很多路。

One day, Yu Gong called all his family together to talk about how to move the two mountains

to other places. His wife said, "An old man like you cannot even move a small hill, not to mention

the two high mountains. Even if you can, where can you throw so much earth and stone?"

"the Bohai Sea is big enough to contain all the earth and stone," Yu Gong said.

So it was decided. His children started to dig the mountains, led by the old man Yu Gong.

一天，愚公把全家人召集到一起，商量着把两座大山移走。妻子说：“凭你的力量，连

一座小山丘也移不走，何况这两座大山呢？再说，你就是能移走，那土石往哪里放呢？”愚

公说：“渤海那么大，可以把土石扔到渤海里去。”

说干就干，愚公带领子孙们挖起山来。河曲的智叟看见了，笑着阻止道：“你真是太傻

了！以你的残年余力，连山上的一根草都动不了，更何况大山？”愚公叹了口气说：“你错

了。你想想，我死了以后还有我的儿子，我的儿子又有儿子，子子孙孙没有穷尽！可是山上

的土石不会增加，还怕挖不走吗？”

A man named Zhi Sou saw them working and tried to stop them, saying, "You are so silly!

You're so old and weak that you can't even take away the grass and trees. How can you move the

high mountains?"

"You're wrong," Yu Gong said with a sigh. "Look, my sons can continue my work after my

death. When my sons die, my grandchildren will continue. So generations after generations,

there's no end. But the mountains can't grow higher. Do you still say I can’t move them away?"

Later the Heaven God, upon learning of Yu Gong’s story, was GREatly moved. He then ordered

another god to come down and take the two high mountains away.

the story tells us that so long as one is determined and sticks to it long enough, anything can

be done, no matter how difficult it is.

愚公移山的事很快被玉皇大帝知道了。玉帝被愚公坚韧不拔的精神所感动，便派大力神

把两座大山背走了。

这个故事告诉我们：只要有决心，有毅力，再难的事情也能办成。

我是一个普通的男孩 原来我一直以为我非常的孤独 没有得到过很多爱 友情 爱情 亲

情 似乎对我一点也不重要 幻想过世界上就我孤单一人 很多人把我看作冷面杀手 有有谁

能理解我心中的黑暗 我也害怕 我也苦过 这个世界或许就是悲凉的 孤独更能让人清醒

也许我是错的 不应使自己一直阴暗下去 我改变了 是爱 朋友的关怀 父母的关爱 让

我渐渐意识到我并不缺少什么 缺少的只是一双发现爱的眼睛 现在有时你给我的爱 我却看

起来很冷漠 不是这样的 我体会得到 我会深深的记在心里。。。。。{一个英文故事}.

我要去努力感受，因为我还有很多没体会的到，例如爱情，我并不孤单，我有颗炽热

渴望的心，明天，让我们去深深的感受吧，。前些日子，朋友给我说2012，你会怎么样，我

并不相信，如果是真的，我也会争取活下来，因为命运把握在自己手中一切皆有可能，即使

死我们也不害怕，宿命，那就从现在开始取感受爱吧。 赞同0| 评论 2010-4-19 22:08 热心网友

I am an ordinary boy. I thought I had been very lonely. Not a lot of love. Friendship, love,

A story一个故事

As a speech pathologist, I often ask patients to tell me a personal story in order to get them to open up. Here's one man's tale:

"My friend wanted a boat more than anything. His wife kept refusing, but he bought one anyway. 'I'll tell you what,' he told her. 'In the spirit of compromise, why don't you name the boat?' Being a good sport, she accepted. And when her husband went to the dock for his maiden voyage, this is the name he saw painted on the side: For Sale. "

People often say that a dog is man's best friend. Over thousands of years, man has taught his dogs to do many kinds of work besides guarding the home. For example, sheepdogs are famous for their ability to control a flock of hundreds of sheep.

Nowadays, dogs can be taught to turn on light switches, open refrigerator doors and dial the telephone for their disabled owners.

大多数人来说，狗只是家里老人和孩子们的宠物和朋友。
