中国传统故事英语演讲稿

案例一:

Ladies and gentlemen:

The fox borrows the tiger’s fierceness (by walking in the

latter’s company)——bully people by flaunting one’s powerful

connections.

One day,a fox ran into a tiger,which was hunting in the

the tiger’s big hungry mouth,the fox pretended to be

surprised,and said,“How dare you eat me?I’m much fiercer than

you though you have the name of ‘King of the beasts’!” “What

are you talking about?” said the tiger who couldn’t believe his

ears.“If you don’t believe me,let’s go and see other beasts’

reactions at the sight of us.” Full of misgivings,the tiger decided to

follow the fox and see what he was up to.

A strange sight was taken place in the forest:the fox was proudly

marching in front and the ferocious tiger followed in a

ng them,all the little beasts fled in a a

while,the fox stopped and asked the tiger,“Now do you believe

me?” The tiger,who was fooled by this trick,believed that the little

beasts feared the fox instead of himself,therefore he let him go.

The tiger lost a delicious meal,while the Chinese gained an

interesting idiom.

thank you!

案例二:

Ladies and gentlemen

Have you not heard of the frog that lived in a shallow well? It

said to a turtle that lived in the East Sea, "I am so happy! When I go

out, I jump about on the railing beside the mouth of the well. When

I come home, I rest in the holes on the broken wall of the well. If I

jump into the water, it comes up to my armpits and holds up my

cheeks. If I walk in the mud, it covers up my feet. I look around at

the wriggly worms, crabs and tadpoles, and none of them can

compare with me. Moreover, I am lord of this trough of water and I

stand up tall in this shallow well. My happiness is full. My dear sir,

why don't you come often and look around my place?"

Before the turtle from the East Sea could get its left foot in the

well, its right knee got stuck. It hesitated and retreated. The turtle

told the frog about the East Sea.

"Even a distance of a thousand li cannot give you an idea of the

sea's width; even a height of a thousand ren cannot give you an idea

of its depth. In the time of King Yu of the Xia dynasty, there were

floods nine years out of ten, but the waters in the sea did not

increase. ln the time of King Tang of the Shang dynasty there were

droughts seven years out of eight, but the waters in the sea did not

decrease. The sea does not change along with the passage of time

and its level does not rise or fall according to the amount of rain

that falls. The greatest happiness is to live in the East Sea."

After listening to these words, the frog of the shallow well was

shocked into realization of his own insignificance and became very

ill at ease.

thank you!
