And out popped-a mouse. 　　Just because someone makes a lot of fuss， it doesn't mean he is important. 　　山 　　很久以前，一座大山隆隆作响，摇晃起来。远近各处的人都来看是怎样回事。 　　一个人说："要出现一条大河了。" 　　另一个人说："准会出现一条巨龙。" 　　第三个人说："从这些岩石中会出现一尊神来。" 　　等了几天之后，山坡上最终裂开一条小缝，却蹦出来一只耗子。 　　正因为某人大肆张扬，所以他没有什么了不起。 　　2.英语寓言故事 　　A wild boar was sharpening his tusks against a tree one day when a fox came by. 　　"What are you doing that for?" asked the fox.

So let me sharpen my tusks while I can." 　　Be prepared. 　　野猪和狐狸 　　有一天，野猪在树上磨牙齿，狐狸走过来。 　　"你为什么干这个呀？"狐狸问，"附近又没有猎人，我觉得平安无事。" 　　"不错，"野猪说，"可是，如果猎人真的带着猎狗来了，我只能逃走，就没工夫干这个了。趁我此刻能够磨，就让我磨磨牙齿吧。" 　　时刻准备着（有备无患）。 　　3.英语寓言故事 　　A man once had four sons who never stopped quarrelling with one another. He was always telling them how much easier life would be if they worked together but they took absolutely no notice of him. One day he decided to show them what he meant. 　　He called all the sons together and put a tightly tied bundle of sticks on the floor in front of them. 　　"Can you break that ? " he asked the youngest son. The boy put his knee on the bundle but though he pressed and pulled with his arms he could not bend the wood. The father asked each son in turn to try to break the bundle, but none of them could do it . 　　Then he untied the string and scattered the sticks. 　　" Now try, " he said . The boys broke the sticks easily in their hands. 　　"Do you see what I mean ?" asked the father. "if only you stand together no one can hurt you . If you all disagree the whole time and insist on going your separate ways, the first enemy you meet will be able to destroy you. " 　　United we stand ; divided we fall. 　　一捆树枝 　　从前有一个人，他有四个儿子。儿子们不断地争吵。他一再告诫他们说，如果他们一齐干活儿，生活会舒适得多，但他们丝毫不理会他的意见。有一天，他决定经过示范把自我的意思告诉他们。 　　他把四个儿子都叫来，又把一捆扎得很紧的`细树枝放在他们面前的地上。 　　"你能折断这个吗？"他问最小的儿子。小伙子用膝盖顶住，两只手又压又拉，都不能把那捆树枝弄弯。父亲让别的儿子挨个儿试试，看他们是否能把那捆树枝折断，但谁也做不到。 　　然后，他解开绳子，把树枝撒开。 　　"试试吧。"他说。四个小伙子用手轻轻一撅，树枝就断了。 　　"你们明白我的意思了吗？"父亲问，"只要你们联合起来，谁也不能伤害你们。如果你们老吵架，必须要各行其是，那么你们一遇到敌人，就会被打败。" 　　合则存，分则败。 　　4.英语寓言故事 　　A man once bought a brilliantly-coloured parrot.Instead of locking it up in a cage or chaining it to a perch, he allowed it to fly free all over the house.The parrot was delighted at this and flapped from room to room, shrieking and screaming with happiness.At last he settled on the edge of a rich curtain. 　　"Who on earth are you ?" said a cross voice from below."Stop that terrible noise at once." 　　The parrot saw a cat staring up at him from the carpet. 　　"I 'm a parrot.I 've just arrived and I 'm to make as much noise as I can," he said. 　　"Well, I 've lived here all my life," replied the cat ."I was born in this very house and I learned from my mother that it is best to keep quiet here." 　　"Keep quiet then, "said the parrot cheerfully."I don't know what you do around here, but I know my job.My master bought me for my voice and I'm going to make sure he hears it." 　　Different people are valued for different things. 　　鹦鹉和猫 　　从前，有人买了一只毛色鲜艳的鹦鹉。他没有把鹦鹉关在笼子里，也没有用链条把他拴在栖木上，而让他在家里自由自在地飞来飞去。鹦鹉对此十分高兴，扑动翅膀，从一间屋子飞到另一间屋子，愉快地尖声叫着，最终停在华丽的帷幔的边上。 　　"你到底是谁？"从下头传来怒气冲冲的说话声，"立刻住嘴，别发出那难听的声音。" 　　鹦鹉看见地毯上有一只猫抬头看着他。 　　"我是鹦鹉。我刚到，我要使劲地吵吵。"他说。"那你就一声不响吧，"鹦鹉欢快地说，"我不明白你在这儿干什么，可我明白我的活儿。主人为了我的声音才买我，我必须得让他听到。" 　　不一样的人因有不一样的特点而受重视。 　　5.英语寓言故事 　　A boy was playing in the fields when he was stung by a nettle.He ran home to tell his mother what had happened. 　　"I only touched it lightly," he said, "and the nasty thing stung me." 　　"It stung you because you only touched it lightly," his mother told him." Next time you touch a nettle grasp it as tightly as you can. Then it won't sting you at all." 　　Face danger boldly. 　　男孩和荨麻 　　有个男孩子在地里玩耍，被荨麻刺痛了。他跑回家去，告诉妈妈出了什么事。 　　"我可是轻轻地碰了它一下，"他说，"那厌恶的东西就把我刺痛了。" 　　"你只轻轻地碰了它一下，所以它才刺痛你，"妈妈对他说，"下一回你再碰到荨麻，就尽量紧紧地抓住它。那它就根本不会刺痛你了。" 　　要敢于应对危险。　　【简介】以下是小编整理的英语版寓言故事（共10篇），欢迎阅读分享。在此，感谢网友“alicebaby”投稿本文！ 　　Two men travelling through a forest together promised to help each other whatever danger threated them. 　　They had not gone far when a bear rushed at them from some bushes. One man was a good climber, and quickly climbed a nearby tree, but the other, seeing that he had no chance alone against the bear, fell flat on his back, and pretended to be dead. 　　The Bear came up to him, sniffed at him, and thicking him dead went off into the wood again without hurting him. 　　When he had gone, the other traveller came down from his tree, and smilingly asked his companion what the Bear had said to him. “For I could see,” he said, “ that he put his mouth close to your ear.” 　　“He told me to tell you,” replied the other,“that you were a great coward, and that in future I should not trust those who make fine promises, but will no stand by their friends in danger.” 　　Don't trust fine promises unless you are sure of the person who makes them. 　　A certain mantis grew extraordinarily stout(结实的) and robust. When he walked around in the backyard, brandishing(挥舞) his two powerful forelimbs. He could easily catch some smaller insects such as locusts, crickets, bugs, etc. Since he was stronger and caught more smaller insects than other mantises and caught more smaller insects than other mantises, he felt that he should be the leader of his kingdom. 　　His authority was one day challenged by another also very strong mantis. After a bitter fighting, he defeated his challenger, who fled toward a road outside of the backyard and swiftly disappeared. The victor chased on the road, but he could not find the loser. He vented his anger on the smaller insects, continually killed two locusts and three crickets. And all the other smaller insects were scared and immediately escaped tracklessly. 　　The bloodthirsty mantis stood bravely on the road by himself. The joy of victoryintoxicated(沉醉，中毒) him into thinking that he might be the most indomitable creature in the world. Soon, he heard a strange sound from a distance. It was a one-wheel wooden cart pushed by a man coming toward his direction on the way. 　　The mantis had never seen a wooden cart. He stood on the road brandishing his two powerful large saws without retreat. He really believed that he could frighten away the unknown monster as he had defeated his challenger. 　　In another minute, the wheel of wooden cart rolled over the poor, self important, ignorant mantis, crushing his without the cart drive's even knowing. 　　In our society, there are many 'mantises'. They think they are more superior than others. They over-estimate their own ability, because they have never seen a “wooden cart.” 　　A Chinese proverb says, “If you think you are the strongest, there is always somebody who is stronger than you; if you think your world is the largest, there is always another world which is larger than yours.” 　　There is a story about a cicada(蝉) in the Chinese classic, Chuang-Tzu. Once upon a time, a male cicada joyfully joined his friends in singing the most beautiful praises of happy summer. He sang and sang, completely intoxicating himself in the comfortable, hot afternoon without noticing a great danger approaching. 　　A couple of inches away, behind the singer, was a huge mantis extending his two powerful saw-like forelimbs, preparing to make a sudden attack on the helpless cicada. The mantis was concentrating on how to catch the delicate cicada for his late lunch and did not realize that a hungry yellow bird was hiding under the leaves, less than half a foot behind the mantis. 　　The bird was sure he could capture the mantis for his early supper, but he never dreamed that amischievous boy standing under the branches was aiming at him with his hand-made bow. When the boy got the bird, he jumped up excitedly and hurt himself by a careless fall as he stepped into a big hole in front of him. 　　What the author of the book tried to tell us is that if you think you are smart enough to take advantage of another person, there is always somebody else who might be smarter than you, trying to take your advantage. The self-declared smartest person often becomes the victim of an unexpected accident. 　　There are traps behind leaves and under the branches. As long as you do not want to take advantage of someone else, you will be smart enough to defend yourself. 　　Once upon a time there was a miser. He hid his gold under a tree. Every week he used to dig it up. One night a robber stole all the gold. When the miser came again, he found nothing but an empty hole. He was surprised, and then burst into tears.All the neighbors gathered around him. He told them how he used to come and visit his gold. “Did you ever take any of it out?” asked one of them. “No,” he said, “I only came to look at it.” “Then come again and look at the hole,” said the neighbor, “it will be the same as looking at the gold.” 　　A fisherman who lived on the produce of his nets, one day caught a single small Fish as the result of his day's labor. The Fish, panting convulsively, thus entreated for his life: “O Sir, what can I be to you, and how little am I worth? I am not yet come to my full size. Pray spare my life, and put me back into the sea. I shall soon become a large fish fit for the tables of 　　the rich, and then you can catch me again, and make a handsome profit of me.” The Fisherman replied, “I should indeed be a very simple fellow if, for the chance of a greater uncertain profit, I were to forego my present certain gain.” 　　John and Bobby joined a wholesale1(批发的) company togther just after graduation from college the same year. Both worked very hard. After several years, however, the boss promoted Bobby to the posotion of manager but John remained an ordinary employee. John could not take it anymore, tendered his resignation2 to the boss and complained the boss did not know how to delegate3 and did not value hard working staff, but only promoted those who flattered4him. 　　The boss knew that John worked very hard for the years. He thought for a moment and said, “Thank you for your criticism, but I have a request. I hope you will do one more thing for our company before you leave. Perhaps you will change your mind and take back your resignation.” 　　John agreed. The boss asked him to go and find out anyone selling watermelon in the market. John went and returned soon. He said he had found out a man selling watermelon. The boss asked how much per kg? John shook his head and went back to the market to ask and returned to inform the boss $1.2 per kg. 　　Boss told John to wait a second, and he called Bobby to come to his office. He asked Bobby to go and find anyone seling watermelon in the market. Bobby went, returned and said, boss, only one person selling watermelon. $1.2 per kg, $10 for 10kg, he has inventory5(存货) of 340 melons. On the table 58 melons, every melon weights about 2 kg, bought from the South two days ago, they are fresh and red, good quality. 　　John was very impresed and realized the difference between himself and Bobby. He decided6not to resign but to learn from Bobby. 　　My dear friends, a more successful person is more observant(善于观察的) , thinks more and explores in depth. Chances exists in the daily details. For the same matter, a more successful person sees more and farther so that he can find out an opportunity and catch it to realize his aim. If a person sees one year ahead, while another sees only tomorrow. The difference between a year and a day is 365 times, how could you win? 　　A Charcoal1-burner carried on his trade in his own house. One day he met a friend, afuller(漂洗工) , and entreated2(恳求，请求) him to come and live with him, saying that they should be far better neighbors and that their housekeeping expenses would belessened3. 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(木炭) .” 　　Like will draw like. 　　An Archer1(射手座，弓箭手) , hunting in the woods, was so successful with his arrows that he killed many of the wild animals. This frightened the rest so much that they ran into thedensest2 part of the bushes to hide. At last the Tiger stood up, and pretending to be very brave, told the other animals not to be afraid anymore, but to rely on his courage, and he would attack the enemy on his own. While he was talking, and lashing3(抨击，鞭打) his tail and tearing at the ground with his claws to impress the others, an arrow came and pierced hisribs4. The Tiger howled with pain. 　　While he was trying to draw out the arrow with his teeth the Fox went up to him and asked, in surprise, whoever had the strength and courage to wound such a brave and mighty5 beast as the Tiger? 　　“Nay,” said the Tiger, “I misjudged my enemy. It was that unbeatable man over there!” 　　MORAL: Knowledge is power. 　　Jack is a little goose. He has a lovely hat. He likes wearing it very much.

He trains the hound to help him hurt and teaches the housedog to watch the house. When he returns home after a day's hunt, he always gives the house-dog some meat. The hound feels very angry. He says unhappily to the housedog, “Where I work very hard outside, you share my food.” “Don't blame me, my friend. You should blame the master. He doesn't teach me to hurt, but to share other's food,” the housedog answers. 　　Don't blame children for the mistakes of their parent 　　两只狗 　　有一个人养了两条狗：一条是猎犬，一条是看家狗。他训练猎狗帮他打猎，教看家狗守家。当猎人打了一天猎回家后，总要分给看家狗一些肉，猎狗对此很生气。它不高兴地对看家狗说道：“我在外边追捕猎物十分辛苦，而你在家什么都不做，但你却分享我的食物。”看家狗回答道：“不要责怪我，我的朋友。你应该去责备主人。他不教我打猎，却只教我分享别人的食物。” 　　不要因为父母的错误而去责备孩子。 　　There are many animals in the forest.

A grasshopper, half perished with hunger, besought the ant to give him a morsel of to preserve his life. “ 　　What were you doing,” said the ant, “this last summer?” “Oh,” said the grasshopper, “I was not idle.
