关于小学英语故事朗诵稿:有故事情节的朗诵稿 A man caught a jackdaw and tied a piece of string to one of its legs, and then gave it to his children for a pet. But the Jackdaw didnt at all like having to live with people; so, after a while, when he seemed to have become fairly tame and they didnt watch him so closely, he slipped away and flew back to his old haunts(栖息地). Unfortunately, the string was still on his leg, and before long it got entangled in the branches of a tree and the Jackdaw couldnt get free, try as he would. He saw it was all up with him, and cried in despair, Alas, in gaining my freedom I have lost my life. A Stag. Blind of one eye, was grazing close to the sea-shore and kept his sound eye turned towards the land, so as to be able to perceive the approach of the hounds(猎犬), while the blind eye he turned towards the sea, never suspecting that any danger would threaten him from that quarter. As it fell out, however, some sailors, coasting along the shore, spied him and shot an arrow at him, by which he was mortally wounded. As he lay dying, he said to himself, Wretch that I am! I bethought me of the dangers of the land, whence none assailed me: but I feared noperil from the sea, yet thence has come my ruin. A crow was filled with envy on seeing the beautiful white plumage of a swan, and thought it was due to the water in which the swan constantly bathed and swam. So he left neighbourhood of the altars, where he got his living by picking up bits of the meat offered in sacrifice, and went and lived among the pools and streams. But though he bathed and washed his feathers many times a day, he didnt make them any whiter, and at last died of hunger into the bargain. You may change your habits, but not your nature. Two Travellers were walking along a bare and dusty road in the heat of a summers day. Coming presently to a Plane-tree, they joyfully turned aside to shelter from the burning rays of the sun in the keep shade of its spreading branches.
