趣味英语小故事 The House of 1000 Mirrors 千镜之屋 Long ago in a small, faraway village, there was a place known as the House of 1000 Mirrors. A small, happy little dog learned of this place and decided to visit. When he arrived, he hounced happily up the stairs to the doorway of the house. He looked through the doorway with his ears lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as it could. To his great surprise, he found himself staring at 1000 other happy little dogs with their tails wagging just as fast as his. He smiled a great smile, and was answered with 1000 great smiles just as warm and firendly. As he left the House, he thought to himself, This is a wonderful place. I will come back and visit it often. In this same village, another little dog, who was not quite as happy as the first one, decided to visit the house. He slowly climbed the stairs and hung his head low as he looked into the door. When he saw the 1000 unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him, he growled at them and was horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling back at him. As he left, he thought to himself, That is a horrible place, and I will never go back there again. All the faces in the world are mirrors. What kind of reflections do you see in the faces of the people you meet? 趣味英语故事 That man knows the future 知道未来的人 Nasreddin was cutting a branch of a tree in his garden. While he was sawing, another man passed in the street. He stopped and said, Excuse me, but if you continue to saw that branch like that, you will fall down with it. He said this because Nasreddin was sitting on the branch and cutting it at a place between himself and the trunk of the tree. Nasreddin said nothing. He thought, This is some foolish person who has no work to do and goes about telling other people what to do and what not to do. The man continued on his way. Of course, after a few minutes, the branch fell and Nasreddin fell with it. My God! he cried. That man knows the future! and he ran after him to ask how long he was going to live. But the man had gone. [第一类] 名词类 1. 这些女老师们在干什么? [误] What are the woman teachers doing? [正] What are the women teachers doing?
