英语短篇故事范文 第一篇

摘 要： 本文从新课程标准对阅读的要求入手，阐述了英语短篇小说阅读适合中学课堂，激发学生学习语言的兴趣，扩大词汇量，提升跨文化交际能力，更重要的是，它能提高学生的阅读理解和文学欣赏能力。结合课堂教学实践，本文探索了如何开展英语短篇小说阅读，并提出了阅读短篇小说对高中英语教学的启示。

关键词： 高中生 英语短篇小说 教学实践 语篇理解

英语阅读是英语学习的主要手段，也是英语学习者必须掌握的基本技能。培养学生的英语阅读能力也是中学英语的重要环节。《普通高中英语课程标准》在阅读的内容、技能、阅读速度和词汇等方面提出了很高的要求，并在语言技能目标八级中明确指出，“除教材外，课外阅读量应该累积到30万词以上”。我2008年在英国Chafford Hundred学校担任交流教师时，发现来英国只有两年的波兰中学生在英语文学课堂里专注地阅读英语短篇小说，值得中国英语教师借鉴。为了实现新课标提出的阅读能力目标，英语教师可在充分发挥挖掘教材内涵的基础上，拓展教学资源，指导学生进行英语短篇小说阅读，感受地道的英语语言，培养英语阅读兴趣，提高英语阅读能力。

一、英语短篇小说阅读的意义

1.适合中学课堂

对于课业繁重的中学生来说，英语长篇小说情节复杂，任务繁杂，难以把握。在英语课堂中阅读长篇小说摘要也不能起到让学生感受地道语言的作用。而英语诗歌格式多样，韵律深奥，内容抽象，让人望而却步。短篇小说就是叙述一个故事，作为一种文学形式，它在19世纪和20世纪初达到鼎盛时期。但作为一种叙述故事的方法，在《圣经》中就被大量使用。英文短篇小说更接近生活，情节较单纯，人物更清楚，文字相对浅显，小说的韵味相对容易体会。由于短篇小说相对篇幅较短，也易于教师在英语课堂进行指导阅读。

2.激发兴趣

3.提升阅读能力

4.扩展词汇量

在阅读过程中，学生将会处于一种不断温习已知词汇、逐渐认识未知词汇的过程。对于已知的词汇，学生会通过重复“相遇”巩固这些词汇的拼写及使用，并且能够根据上下文的内容对该词汇的用法有一个更加深入的了解。对于未知词汇，学生可以使用查字典或通过上下文提示来猜测未知词汇的大意。如Earnest Hemingway短篇“A Day’s Wait”中“He was shivering，his face was white and he walked slowly as though it ached to move.”根据语境，很容易猜出shiver的含义，同时也能感悟出高考词汇与“shake”和“tremble”的区别。

5.培养跨文化交际能力

由于不同的民族所处的生态、物质、社会及宗教等环境不同，因而各自的语言环境产生了不同的语言习惯、社会文化和风土人情等诸多语境因素。不同文化背景造成人们说话方式习惯等不尽相同。Kramsch（1993）指出，文化因素始终存在于语言学习之中；目的语的文化知识不但是培养跨文化交际能力的重要方面，而且本身也是教学的要求之一。通过阅读短篇小说，学生可以直接了解到英语国家的历史地理、宗教信仰、生活方式、人际交往和价值观等文化背景知识，拓宽知识面。例如，学生可以了解英语国家的饮食习惯，知道从appetizer到dessert的上菜顺序，用“eat soup”而不是“drink soup”，知道什么是得体的table manners。Earnest Hemingway的短篇“A Day’s Wait”中，父亲与儿子的对话可以让学生感受到具体生活情境中人们说话方式。通过阅读的小说“The Gift of the Magi”，学生可以西方文化中圣诞节的内涵和人们的价值观。短篇小说提供了生动具体的语言材料，让学生获得大量的背景知识，以及不同文化价值观和思维方式的差异，提高他们根据不同的语境和文化背景进行得体恰当的语言表达能力，培养了跨文化交际能力。

二、英语短篇小说选择

英语短篇故事范文 第二篇

One day, her pet cat jumped on the tree and didn't come down. Molly was angry and said, xxxcut the tree down and catch the cat!xxx xxxThe attendant was frightened and said,xxx princess, this cannot be cut down! It is the sacred tree of the kingdom!xxx

xxxI don't care! Cut off quickly!xxx

The sorcerer cary heard, and the spell came to him, and a garland hat appeared on his head. Molly saw it and was attracted by it. xxxcan you give it to me?xxx she asked. Carrie hesitated.

xxxPrincess, this is a magic hat, or... xxx

Suddenly the girl screamed loudly, xxxI am princess jasmine!xxx Ah! She was so angry that she turned the table over. Molly was frightened and hid under the bed.

xxxOh -- somebody! xxxCried Molly, crying and running out the door.

xxxTake back the devil in your hat!xxx Molly is to the sorcerer's card.

xxxOh? That's not the devil, she's you!xxx

xxxHow funny! I'm not that big of a temper!xxx Molly didn't believe it.

xxxThis is you in a few years! Don't believe it, you see --xxx Carrie took out the crystal ball, and Molly saw a shaggy, angry girl in it, and it was a crazy mess! She was startled and a little frightened.

xxxBad temper is not only bad for you, but you won't have any friends around you!xxx xxxSaid Carrie.

xxxThat...... Is there any way to not be like that?xxx xxxAsked Molly nervously.

xxxThat, there is a bottle here, and there are many seeds in it, and you plant all the seeds, and when they bear fruit, the temper will be gone!xxx Take out a magic bottle with the name of the flower on the label: sincere, kind, friendly, smile. The end marked: water with the heart. Molly was glad to accept it, when she was surprised to find that the irascible girl in the crystal ball had disappeared and could not see anything.

xxxI'm afraid to go inside... xxxMolly remembered that there was a scary woman in the house.

xxxHa, she's been locked up by me. You don't have to be afraid.xxx Carrie said.

Molly nodded happily.

From then on, Molly was careful to do the work every day, according to the words on the label. Before long, she changed, became a very good and good princess, one day, her flower seed finally blossomed, the fruit, at that time, she has grown into a big girl!

There was a princess in the white mouse kingdom. She thought it was dull and boring. She often stood on the castle, looking at the castle of the black mouse kingdom in the distance, and thought, if you can go there, it will be great!

One day, the white mouse princess finally made a decision to take a bus to the castle of the black mouse kingdom. Then she found a lot of artisans and asked them to make a car as fast as they could.

英语短篇故事范文 第九篇

摘 要： 本文通过分析英语专业本科生对英文短篇小说学习的方法，即小组学习与个人学习，对比两种学习方法的优势与劣势，探究学生分别在这两种学习方法中对自身阅读能力的提高，从而得出小组学习与个人学习分别对学生英文小说阅读能力培养的作用。

关键词： 小组学习 个人学习 英语阅读能力

近年来，教师对学生英语阅读课程所推荐的学习方法不同，学生根据不同学习方法所达到的效果也有所不同。英语阅读贯穿在英语学习的各个阶段。因此，探究小组学习与个人学习在学生英语阅读能力提高方面的作用成为当前英语教育的一项重要内容。

一、小组学习的含义及其对个人英语阅读能力培养的作用

顾名思义，小组学习指的是在老师下达具体阅读任务后，以小组的形式完成对英文短篇小说的分析、总结与反思。由于英文短篇小说的角色分配与情节较复杂，小组成员可以互相弥补各自对角色的遗漏，以及对小说情节细节的遗漏，从而使小组成员通过团队的力量加深对小说的理解，加强对小说角色与情节的分析。

在小组学习过程中，各个组员向团队贡献自己的想法，又从其他小组成员那里借鉴了自己所没有的认识，从而丰富了自身的思想与见识，意识到了自己与他人之间的不足及自己仍有许多进步的空间，从而激发各组员的上进心与学习兴趣来寻找合适的方法提高自己。小组学习的方法着重培养个人的团队合作能力，使每个小组成员都意识到团队合作及与他人之间分享学习成果的重要性。而且每个人在小组中发挥的作用使其具有强烈的集体荣誉感与个人满足感，因而有利于促进个人对自身英语阅读兴趣的提高与渴望得到集体重视的希望。

二、个人学习的含义及其对个人英语阅读能力培养的作用

个人学习，指的是在老师下达具体的阅读任务后，由个人独立完成对英文短篇小说的分析、总结与反思。由于英文短篇小说具有一定的发展情节，内容上具有一定的趣味性，因此对其内容与主题的理解与分析的难度系数并不太高。无论是浅析还是深剖小说，每个人均需要将小说的人物找全，弄清楚各人物间的关系，将各个情节按一定的线索串联起来，使脑海中形成一个完整的故事而不是一些零零碎碎的片段。笔者建议，个人在阅读英文短篇小说过程中，可以用笔在文中圈出与小说的六要素（即时间、地点、人物、故事的起因、经过和结果）有关的关键词，并且在阅读过程中，在纸上同步标出逐渐明朗的人物关系及逐渐清晰的故事情节，使自己加深对小说的理解，也便于后来对小说主题的分析。

个人学习是一种完全依赖自身的学习方法。如果自己不仔细阅读，就意味着你将上交一份不尽如人意的答卷。因此，在英语阅读中，个人学习对自身的挑战是很大的。首先，就英语而言，对于我们每个人都是第二语言，我们在阅读过程中无法避免地遇到生词，通过单词的构成，我们在生活中所积累的常识与联系上下文的理解猜出其大致含义，这本身对我们就是一项挑战。其次，我们和欧美国家有着不同的文化环境与写作习惯，所以，往往我们在阅读英文小说之前需要了解小说的写作背景与动机，以便我们深入剖析文章主题，这对我们阅读能力及知识面范围的要求就比较高。因此，个人学习的英语阅读方法能充分锻炼个人的英语语言学习能力，对阅读内容的分析概括能力及对小说主题的深入理解的能力，从而有利于个人英语阅读能力的提高。

三、小组学习与个人学习各自的弱点与缺陷与适用对象

在小组学习中，组长针对老师布置的阅读任务，根据各组员的英语阅读能力与水平，分配给每个小组成员阅读任务，由大家共同完成，这是最理想的状态。但我们在平时的学习过程中，以小组为单位时，总会有些自制力差的同学把希望寄托在同组其他人身上，逃避阅读任务，这必然影响其英语阅读能力的提高。若长此以往，必将影响其英语阅读兴趣，甚至影响其对英语语言的学习兴趣。英语阅读能力是在不断练习的过程中逐步提高的，如果不坚持练习，反复钻研，很难真正提高自己的阅读水平。因此，小组学习适用于在阅读任务难度较大的情况下，学习上有上进心并且自制力强的学生在小组学习中可与大家分享自己的学习成果，并在小组成员间互相学习的过程中认识到自己与他人相比的存在的优越性或不足，进一步通过练习不断提高自己的阅读能力，完善自己的知识储备。

个人学习重点放在对个人阅读能力的锻炼，完全独立自主的自由式学习对于阅读基础好、阅读能力强的同学自然是小菜一碟，而对于那些阅读基础差，能力弱的同学来说，这将是一项巨大的挑战。阅读能力差的同学，面对复杂的阅读任务往往无从下手，仅仅是理清文章脉络就将耗费他们许多时间与精力，在此期间，他们的阅读兴趣极易磨没，往往倾向于将阅读当做一项不可推卸的任务，而不是因为阅读兴趣而产生的提高阅读能力的训练。这样不但英语阅读能力难以提高，就连阅读兴趣也没有，并且容易导致消极的学习态度。因此，个人学习适用于在阅读任务的难度适中的条件下，英语阅读基础好、能力较高的学生，他们能在个人学习中体会自己的能力与家人，能在独立完成阅读任务后体验满足感与自豪感，从而激励他们继续努力下去，不断提高自己的英语阅读能力，不断拓宽自己的知识面。

小组学习与个人学习有其各自的特点，由于两种学习方法的不同，使得他们有着不同的适用对象。学生应该对自己的阅读基础、阅读能力及知识面有清楚的认识，根据对自身条件的判断，选择适合自己的学习方法与适当难度的文章进行英语阅读训练。不要想着为了快速提高自己的英语阅读能力而选择高难度的文章进行训练，否则只会打击自己英语阅读的兴趣与积极性。并且，在适当的时候，与身边的学生合作完成，虚心接受他人的意见与建议，与他人分享自己的阅读所得，也可以有效地提高自己的英语阅读水平。总之，无论是小组学习还是个人学习，都有其自身的特点，我们需要把握自身的阅读水平与学习能力，选择适合自己的阅读学习方法与技巧，并且在提高英语阅读能力的道路上坚持不懈，持之以恒，使自己的英语阅读能力通过量的积累，实现质的飞跃。

英语短篇故事范文 第十篇

I have a question for you. ‘Do you know how to breathe?’ Okay, I know what you are thinking now, “Girl, are you kidding me? Everybody knows how to breathe.” Actually, if I were you sitting down in there one year ago, I would think, “How did she make it to the final?”

Alright, seriously speaking, what I am talking about is “the art of breathing”, and it’s about breathing in a Yoga way: peacefully and always under control. What it reveals is the real essence of perseverance, “In order to achieve, sometimes, you need to wait.” And when it comes to things you really want in life, it is as hard as it could possibly be.

For me, singing is a life thing. When I am singing on the stage, I feel whole-heartedly involved, and the self-fulfillment it renders is inexplicably thrilling. But with all the realistic problems I need to face in life, all those I want seem too far to be true– so far that I am terrified that I will never ever be able to get there and that gradually I will be carried away by the currents and torrents of life. I’ve been drowned into this ambivalence for so long. Now, with a refined perspective towards self-realization, I am waiting, in a graceful posture, and knowing that I am going to get there. And on this, I should say, I owe Yoga a thank-you.

I still remember, about one year ago, I attended a Yoga course for the very first time. And to tell you the truth, I went there for a nice figure. However, after practicing for some time, I discovered that there was an ineffable inner-strength burgeoning sneakily in me while I totally focused. In order not to let go this significant power, I started to picture all I wanted in my mind while I was fully concentrating, for I believe the wings of imagination could make things possible. I learned to breathe with my dreams, shaping the eagerness into this elegant gesture of persisting.

And now, if you ask me what exactly is “the art of breathing”, I would say it is indeed “the art of living”. It combines the search of balance, the grace of patience, and the awareness of appreciation.

So even though feelings are tied up with life routines, I could still hold onto that free EGO which I have always adored: the girl who is singing under the spotlight, with all her heart and soul; the girl who is persevering with all she believes in and always feels grateful for what has been bestowed on her.

That girl is now standing right here in front of you, hoping that you are all as lucky as she is, living with dreams and love. No matter how tough things get, I tell myself, I tell myself that, every single thing I am doing now is every step closer to that very moment of my trajectory, just like every Yoga breath to every blossom moment of my life.

Mice chess, look at is not we often play chess, because the little mouse, although know is inside the elephant and horse, but for those who will, handsome, soldiers and died, but he had never seen. So he thought chess was boring, and he liked to see a different kind of chess game.

It was a fine day. A group of young children wearing red scarves went to the forest. The mouse heard the noise and came out to watch. He was a mouse living in the wild, and his hole was on the edge of the forest. So he could see the red scarves as a game if he squatted at the mouth of the cave.

The mouse was not happy, because this morning he went to the north to live with his neighbour, the elephant. He wanted three, but the elephant was only willing to give him one, so he got angry and thought the elephant was just as bad as an old cat. Now he squatted down at his hole and watched a team of red scarves line up. He saw a small flag on the front of each party, with all kinds of different beasts embroidered on it. In front of it was the flag of a lion, embroidered with a tiger on the back, and a flag embroidered with the elephant. The mouse was looking forward, he thought, if there was a flag in the procession that was embroidered with a mouse, how interesting it would be! Sadly, the red scarf had gone, and the flag of the mouse he was looking for had not appeared.

This is the second thing that has made him angry today.

And the third thing that made him angry! It happened while he was watching chess. Let's start again!

The red scarves are happily playing, some singing, some dancing, some collecting specimens, some reading poems. None of these things interest the mouse, but disgust him. It was known to all that the mouse was a thief, and he came out at night to steal things, and rested all day by day. But can these children be so noisy that he can sleep? He really wanted to drive the little ones out of the forest. If he's a tiger, yell, or maybe do it. In fact, he was just a little mouse, and he squeaked and squeaked, but only slightly louder than the mosquitoes.

So he went out of the hole and looked at chess.

Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair.

I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy---ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of my life for a few hours for this joy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness---that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life, this is what---at last---I have found.

With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of men. I have wished to know why the stars shine. And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flux. A little of this, but not much, I have achieved.

Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always it brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.

This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.

Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.

Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.

Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing appetite for what’s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart, there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you are young.

When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you’ve grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there’s hope you may die young at 80.

When I was a kid, maybe I saw the little cock adventure, maybe not. On that day, I happened to buy these two versions of xxxthe little cock adventurexxx at two stalls, and then began to read. The language of fairy tales is very beautiful and some passages are like prose poems. The first half of the story is interesting, and only when it comes to the end, didactic meaning is concentrated -- otherwise, it would be a perfect fairy tale.

It is not known which year the adventures of David sun was written, and if it had been written after the adventures of the cockerel, its writing would probably have been inspired by the book. I don't know which one of the best fairy tales he has ever seen, which is the most interesting, and the illustrations are well combined with the original works. In the first edition and in the reversion, yan and Ada's illustrations are completely two styles, one is realistic, one is based on freehand brushwork, but can each attain its own wonderful, just like the heaven.

This fairy tale is a little longer than xxxthe great forest and the little Linxxx, and the story is more complete, and it belongs to the whole story. For older children, the suspense is not xxxhangingxxx, especially for adults. However, the freshness and elegance of language, the vivid and precise words, give it a unique charm.

There are so many illustrations, I can't put them on. I can do it. I can only finish it as soon as possible.

Recently, a friend said, every good fairy tale, the reading of the feeling is very good. So, try reading this: how do you feel when you read those fresh descriptions and vivid conversations?

Honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen,

The fairytale of Aladdin has always been my childhood favorite. I was mesmerized by how Aladdin used his three magic wishes. As a small girl, I dreamed of having the magic wishes to go wherever I wanted to go and see whatever I wanted to see. As you can probably guess, I haven’t found my genie in the lamp yet, however, I have found something just as exciting and it has made marvelous changes in not only my life, but the lives of all human-beings. It is called technology.

I still remember how my father told me about his childhood back in those days when China was not as open and developed as it is now. Children would run for kilometers to school, make toys with wood by themselves, and the biggest dream of a child was holding two jars of sugar, one white, the other brown in each arm and having the choice of eating whichever he wanted. Just look at what we have now. Magnificent technological advancement has opened up a whole new world to us.

However, just as our lives become more convenient, problems arise from this new life style. We seem to be caged in the modern technology; we are thinking alike as a result of using the same search engine, we are getting lazy as most of our work can be done by machines, and we are alienating people around us for we are more comfortable talking on phones and typing in front of a computer.

If I was given the chance to make my magic wishes now, I would wish we could go back in time and live for three days without advanced technology. I wonder what we would do in those three days. Here is what I imagine:

On the first day, people would be feeling so uncomfortable with the new situation that they would probably be confused and just not know what to do. The world would be in a mess for the whole day.

On the second day, as life goes on, people would have to find alternative ways to deal with their daily rituals: students would have to go to libraries for information they wanted instead of searching on Google; boys would have to express their affection to girls in person instead of sending an annoying txt message; and the young people of today would have the chance to experience the childhood of their parents. On this particular day, we could recover all we had lost in the modern world.

Then comes the third day. After the previous two days, we would gradually come to realize that we should have paid more attention to our studies and work as we actually have so much creativity and potential within ourselves. We would also realize that we should have spent more time with a friend, a parent or a child as we do love them, but we don’t really understand them due to the lack of personal communication. We shouldn’t have been so dependent on modern technology as it wasn’t invented to confine us, but to inspire us. This last day would be spent in sparks of new ideas and sweet moments with our loved ones.

Maybe some would argue that it is just my imagination, and that magic would never work in our world. True, but magic can always work in our hearts, helping us understand that we, instead of the machine, are the masters of the world. The key is to treasure our human initiative and connections, to see the world with our own eyes, explore the unknown with our minds and treat others with our hearts. Just like Aladdin didn’t choose to use magic to gain a happy life, we can make our choice, too. And when we do, we will live, as in the fairy tales, happily ever after. Thank you.

众所周知，语文和英语都属于文科。有人说，语文和英语和他们的知识无关。汉语和英语是国际语言，但两者互不相干。我认为这个说法是不正确的。汉语和英语有着密切的关系。为什么？如果你不明白，请慢慢听我说。

首先，语文和英语都是文科。既然他们也属于文科，那他们之间肯定有一定的联系。只要我们仔细观察，仔细思考，就能找到它们之间的联系。

第二个原因是，要想学好语文和英语，必须有一定的理解能力。如果你没有一定的理解能力，那么你就会学得像鸭子听雷一样。如果没有一定的理解能力，一定要理解这篇课文的意思和它的意义。当老师，绝对不是空洞的说教，而是事实，语文和英语也是。

因此，我认为汉语和英语有一定的联系。只要我们灵活地学习和使用它，汉语和英语一定会相通的！
