簡短的幼兒小故事英文 老人與死神的故事

1、老人與死神The old man and Death

2、An old man cut himself a bundle of faggots in wood and started to carry them home.有一個老人在森林裏砍了一些柴，準備運回家。　　

3、He had a long way to go, and was tired out before he had got much more than half-way.他十分吃力地挑着走了很遠的路，還沒走到一半，就已經累得走不動了。　　

4、Casting his burden on the ground, he called upon Death to come and release him from his life of toil. The words were scarcely out of his mouth when, much to his dismay, Death stood before him and professed his readiness to serve him. He was almost frightened out of his wits, but he had enough presence of mind to stammer out, “Good sir, if you you’d be so kind, pray help me up with my burden again.”他便將擔子放在地上，要求死神快點來，讓他儘快擺脱這個痛苦的生命，更令他沮喪的是，還沒等話説出口，死神便站在他面前，聲稱已經準備好為他服務了。老人幾乎嚇呆了，但卻保持着沉着鎮定，結結巴巴地説：“好人呀，你行行好，幫忙把那擔子再放到我的肩上吧。”
