神話英語(yǔ)故事作文閱讀篇一
Legend says that there were once ten suns in the sky, which made plants wither, water in rivers and lakes run dry. It’s too hot to live on the sun.
相傳，遠(yuǎn)古時(shí)候有一年，天上出現(xiàn)了十個(gè)太陽(yáng)，直烤得大地冒煙，海水枯干，老百姓眼看無(wú)法再生活去。
Houyi, a young man who was good at archery was sympathetic with people’s torture so he decided to save them. He took out his bow, ascended up to the peak of the Kunlun Mountain and shot down nine of the ten suns one by one, and he might have shot the last one if it was not called off by others. Thus the severe drought was gone.
這件事驚動(dòng)了一個(gè)名叫后羿的英雄，他登上昆侖山頂，運(yùn)足神力，拉開(kāi)神弓，一氣射下九個(gè)多余的太陽(yáng)。
Houyi thus was respected and honored by people as a hero. Young men who were fond of archery flocked to him to learn shooting.
后羿立下蓋世神功，受到百姓，的尊敬和愛(ài)戴，不少志士慕名前來(lái)投師學(xué)藝。
Houyi later married a pretty lady called Chang’er and lived a happy life with her.
不久，后羿娶了個(gè)美麗善良的 妻子，名叫嫦娥。后羿除傳藝狩獵外，終日和妻子在一起，人們都羨慕這對(duì)郎才女貌的恩愛(ài)夫妻。
One day on his way to a friend’ home in the Kunlun Mountain, Houyi came across the Heavenly Empress. Houyi was enamored of the happy life with his wife and wanted to be with her forever so he asked the Heavely Empress to give him some elixir. The elixir was strictly controlled off normal people. The Heavely Empress, however, moved by Houyi’s contribution and affection to love and gave him one. The drug was said very powerful and people who took it can fly to the heaven and became a immortal immediately. However, the content was only enough for one person and Houyi was reluctant to leave his beloved wife alone on the earth so he gave the elixir to Chang’er to preserve and wanted to seek another one for his wife. Chang’er carefully stored it in a wooden box while her action was peeked by the evil Fengmeng-one of his husband’s adherents.
一天，后羿到昆侖山訪友求道，巧遇由此經(jīng)過(guò)的王母娘娘，后羿因與嫦娥恩愛(ài)，想與她永遠(yuǎn)在一起，便向王母求一包不死藥。但因此要凡間控制得嚴(yán)，王母被后羿的貢獻(xiàn)和精神打動(dòng)，就給了他醫(yī)保，但是神藥只夠一個(gè)人吃據(jù)說(shuō)，服下此藥，能即刻升天成仙。然而藥只夠一個(gè)人吃，后羿舍不得撇下妻子，只好暫時(shí)把不死藥交給嫦娥珍藏。嫦娥將藥藏進(jìn)梳妝臺(tái)的百寶匣里，不料被蓬蒙看到了。
Three days afterward, Houyi lead his disciples to go out for hunting but Fengmeng who wanted to steal the elixir while Houyi was way, stayed at home deliberately.
三天后，后羿率眾徒外出狩獵，心懷鬼胎的蓬蒙假裝生病，留了下來(lái)。
No sooner as Houyi left his house, Fengmeng knocked into the courtyard where Chang’er was working. He wielded his glitter sword and threatened Chang’er to give him the elixir.
待后羿率眾人走后不久，蓬蒙手持寶劍闖入內(nèi)宅后院，威逼嫦娥交出不死藥。
Chang’e had no better idea than swallowed the elixir herself.
嫦娥知道自己不是蓬蒙的對(duì)手，只得拿出不死藥一口吞了下去。
As soon as she took it, chang’er flew from her house toward the heave and finally landed on the moon.
嫦娥吞下藥，身子立時(shí)飄離地面、沖出窗口，向天上飛去。
Houyi was told what was happening in the evening when he returned home from bumper hunting. He was astonished, anguished and then very anger so he decided to kill the evil man. But Fengmeng had fled away. Chang’er was transferred to the moon and has lived there since ever.
傍晚，后羿回到家，侍女們哭訴了白天發(fā)生的事。后羿既驚又怒，抽劍去殺惡徒，蓬蒙早逃走了。嫦娥從此就在月亮上住了下來(lái)。
Chang'e decides to live on the moon because it is nearest to the earth. There she lives a simple and contented life. Even though she is in Heaven, her heart remains in the world of mortals. Never does she forget the deep love she has for Hou Yi.
嫦娥決定在月亮上住下來(lái)，因?yàn)樵铝岭x地球最近。她在月宮里過(guò)著簡(jiǎn)單的生活。盡管她上了天宮，她的心還是在凡間。嫦娥從未忘記與后羿之間的愛(ài)。
百姓們聞知嫦娥奔月成仙的消息后，紛紛在月下擺設(shè)香案，向善良的嫦娥祈求吉祥平安。從此，中秋節(jié)拜月的風(fēng)俗在民間傳開(kāi)了。

神話英語(yǔ)故事作文閱讀篇三
Long long time ago, there lived a little princess named Niu Wa (女娃) who was the youngest daughter of Emperor Yan, the legendary ruler in ancient Chinese mythology.
精衛(wèi)填海講的是中國(guó)古代神話中炎帝寵愛(ài)的小女兒女兒的故事。
The littel princess loved watching the sunrise, admiring the spectacle of nature. She once asked her father where the sun rises. Her father said it was in the Eastern Sea and promised to take her there to see sunrise on a boat, but he had been too busy to do that.
女娃很喜歡看日出，喜歡大自然。她很想讓父親帶她出去，到東海——太陽(yáng)升起的地方去看一看?？墒且?yàn)楦赣H忙于公事：太陽(yáng)升起時(shí)來(lái)到東海,直到太陽(yáng)落下;日日如此，總是不能帶她去
One day, the little princess got a boat behind her father's back, sailing to the Eastern Sea. When she was away from the shore, unfortunately, a strong wind rose and overthrew her boat. She was buried by the surging waves, being drowned quickly.
這一天，女娃沒(méi)告訴父親，便一個(gè)人駕著一只小船向東海太陽(yáng)升起的地方劃去。不幸的是，海上突然起了狂風(fēng)大浪，像山一樣的海浪把女娃的小船打翻了，女娃不幸落入海中，終被無(wú)情的大海吞沒(méi)了。
After her death, her spirit turned into a beautiful bird with white beak and red claws. Since it often stood on a branch, mourning herself sadly in the sound "jing wei, jing wei", people called it "Jing Wei".
女娃死了，她的精魂化作了一只小鳥(niǎo)，花腦袋，白嘴殼，紅色的爪子，十分可愛(ài)，可發(fā)出的，卻是“精衛(wèi)、精衛(wèi)”的悲鳴，所以，人們便叫此鳥(niǎo)為“精衛(wèi)”。
Jing Wei hated the sea very much for taking her life. In order to revenge and keep other kids from being drown, the small bird decided to fill up the roaring sea.
精衛(wèi)痛恨無(wú)情的大海奪去了自己年輕的生命，她要報(bào)仇雪恨。因此，她一刻不停地從她住的發(fā)鳩山上銜了一粒小石子，展翅高飛，一直飛到東海。
From then on, Jing Wei flew to and fro between the mountain and the Eastern sea, carrying a twig or a pebble and dropping it into the sea. Day after day, it never stopped.
從此以后，她在波濤洶涌的海面上回翔闃，悲鳴著，把石子樹(shù)枝投下去，想把大海填平。
Puzzled by its behaviors, the sea said to Jing Wei with irony, "Stop doing that, poor little bird, it is totally meaningless! You'll never fill me up."
大海奔騰著，咆哮著，嘲笑她：“小鳥(niǎo)兒，算了吧，你這工作就干一百萬(wàn)年，也休想把我填平!”
To it, Jing Wei replied firmly, "I'll fill you up no doubt! I will, even if it'll take me thousands of years! I'll fight on until doomsday!"
精衛(wèi)十分執(zhí)著，在高空答復(fù)大海：“哪怕是干上一千萬(wàn)年，一億年，干到宇宙的盡頭，世界的末日，我終將把你填平的!
The brave little bird kept carrying twigs and pebbles from the mountain to the Eastern Sea without taking a rest.
她銜呀，扔呀，成年累月，往復(fù)飛翔，從不停息。
