【英语美文短篇】英语美文:谁动了我的奶酪ONCE, long ago in a land far away, there lived four little characters who ran through a maze1 looking for cheese to nourish2 them and make them happy.Two were mice, named “Sniff 3” and “Scurry4” and two were littlepeople-beings5 who were as small as mice but who looked and acted a lot like people today. Their names were “Hem6” and “Haw7.”Due to their small size, it would be easy not to notice what the four of them were doing. But if you looked closely enough, you could discover the most amazing things!Every day the mice and the little people spent time in the maze looking for their own special cheese. The mice, Sniff and Scurry, possessing8 only simple rodent9 brains, but good instincts10, searched for the hard nibbling11 cheese they liked, as mice often do.The two littlepeople, Hem and Haw, used their brains, filled with many beliefs and emotions12, to search for a very different kind of Cheese—with a capital 13 C—which they believed would make them feel happy and successful.As different as the mice and littlepeople were, they shared something in mon: every morning, they each put on their jogging14 suits and runningshoes, left their little homes, and raced out into the maze looking for their favorite cheese.The maze was a labyrinth15 of corridors16 and chambers17, some containing delicious cheese. But there were also dark corners and blind alleys18 leading nowhere. It was an easy place for anyone to get lost.However, for those who found their way, the maze held secrets that let them enjoy a better life.The mice, Sniff and Scurry, used the simple, but inefficient19, trial-and-error20 method of finding cheese. They ran down one corridor and if it proved empty, they turned and ran down another.Sniff would smell out the general direction of the cheese, using his great nose, and Scurry would race ahead. They got lost, as you might expect, went off 21 in the wrong direction and often bumped 22 into walls.However, the two littlepeople, Hem and Haw, used a different method that relied on23 their ability to think and learn from their past experiences, although, they would sometimes get confused24 by their beliefs and emotions.Eventually25 in their own way, they all discovered what they were looking for —they each found their own kind of cheese one day at the end of one of the corridors in Cheese Station C.Every morning after that, the mice and the littlepeople dressed in their running gear26 and headed27 over to Cheese Station C. It wasn“t longbefore they each established their own routine.Sniff and Scurry continued to wake early every day and race through the maze, always following the same route.When they arrived at their destination, the mice took off their running shoes, tied them together and hung them around their necks—so they could get to them quickly whenever they needed them again. Then they enjoyed the cheese.In the beginning Hem and Haw also raced toward Cheese Station C every morning to enjoy the tasty new morsels28 that awaited them.But after a while, a different routine set in29 for the littlepeople.Hem and Haw awoke each day a little later, dressed a little slower, and walked to Cheese Station C. After all, they knew where the Cheese was now and how to get there.They had no idea where the Cheese came from, or who put it there. They just assumed 30 it would be there.As soon as Hem and Haw arrived at Cheese Station C each morning, they settled in31 and made themselves at home. They hung up32 their jogging suits, put away33 their running shoes and put on their slippers34. They were ing very fortable now that they had found the Cheese.“This is great,” Hem said. “There"s enough Cheese here to last us forever.” The littlepeople felt happy and successful, and thought they were now secure.It wasn"t long before Hem and Haw regarded the Cheese they found at Cheese Station C as their cheese. It was such a large store of Cheese that they eventually moved their homes to be closer to it, and built a social life around it.To make themselves feel more at home, Hem and Haw decorated35 the walls with sayings and even drew pictures of Cheese around them which made them smile. One read:Having Cheese Makes You Happy.Sometimes Hem and Haw would take their friends by to see their pile of Cheese at Cheese Station C, and point to it with pride, saying, “Pretty nice Cheese, huh?” Sometimes they shared it with thei r friends and sometimes they didn"t.。

Since they had noticed the supply of cheese had been getting smaller every day, they were prepared for the inevitable & knew instinctively what to do. They were quickly off in search of New Cheese.Later that same day, Hem & Haw arrived. “Wh at! No Cheese? Who moved my Cheese? It’s not fair!”, Hem yelled. They went home that night hungry &discouraged. But before they left, Haw wrote on the wall:The More Important Your Cheese is To You, The More You Want To Hold Onto It.The next day Hem & Haw left their homes, & returned to Cheese Station C. But situation hadn’t changed. Haw asked, “Where are Sniff & Scurry? Do you think they know something we don’t?” Hem scoffed, “What would they know? They’re just simple mice. They just respond to what happ ens. We’re little people. We’re smarter.”Haw suggested, “Maybe we should stop analyzing the situation so much and just get going & find some New Cheese.Haw decided to leave Cheese Station C while Hem was more comfortable staying in the cheeseless Statio n C. Haw announced, “It’s MAZE time!” and wrote:If You Do Not Change,You Can Become ExtinctWho Moved My Cheese?Meanwhile, Sniff & Scurry went farther into the maze until they found Cheese Station N. They found what they had been looking for: a great supply of New Cheese. It was the biggest store of cheese the mice had ever seen.Haw on the other hand become more anxious & wondered if he really wanted to go out into the Maze. He wrote a saying on the wall ahead of him & stared at it for some time:What Would You DoIf You Weren’t Afraid?Haw now realized that the change probably would not have taken him by surprise if he had been watching what was happening all along and if he had anticipated change. He stopped for a rest &wrote on the wall of the Maze:Smell The Cheese OftenSo You KnowWhen It Is Getting Old.Haw wondered if Hem had moved on, or if he was still paralyzed by his own fears. Then, Haw remembered the times when he had felt his best in the Maze. It was when he was moving along. He wrote:Movement In A New Direction Helps You FindNew Cheese.As Haw started running down the dark corridor, he began to smile. Haw didn’t realize it yet, but he was discovering what nourished his soul. He was letting go & trusting what lay ahead for him, even though he did not know exactly what it was.To his surprise, Haw started to enjoy himself more & more. He stopped to write again on the wall:When You Move Beyond Your Fear,You Feel Free.Who Moved My Cheese?To make things even better, Haw started to paint a picture in his mind again. He saw himself in great realistic detail, sitting in the middle of a pile of all his favorite cheeses-from Cheddar to Brie! He saw himself eating the many cheeses he liked, & he enjoyed what he saw.The more clearly he saw the image of himselfenjoying New Cheese, the more real & believable it became. He wrote:Imagining MyselfEnjoying New Cheese,Even Before I Find It,Leads Me To It.Haw wondered why he had always thought that a change would lead to something worse. Now he realized that change could lead to something better.Then he raced through the Maze with greater strength & agility. Until he found bits of New Cheese. He entered the Cheese Station but it was empty. Someone had already been there.He stopped & wrote on the wall:The Quicker YouLet Go Of Old Cheese,The Sooneryou Find New Cheese.Haw made his way back to Cheese Station C to offer Hem bits of New Cheese but was turned down. Hem wanted his own Cheese back. Haw just shook his head in disappointment but this does not stop him from finding New Cheese. He smiled as he realized:It Is SaferTo Search In The MazeThan RemainIn The Cheeseless Situation.Haw realized again, that what you are afraid of is never as bad as what you imagine. The fear you let build up in your mind is worse than the situationthat actually exists.He realizes it was natural for change to continually occur, whether you expect it or not.

Change could surprise you only if you didn’t expect it & weren’t looking for it.When he realized he had changed his beliefs, he paused to write on the wall: Old BeliefsDo Not Lead Y ou ToNew Cheese.Who Moved My Cheese?Haw now realized that his new beliefs were encouraging him to behave in a new way. He was behaving differently from the way he had when he had keptreturning to the same cheeseless station.It all depends on what you choose to believe. He wrote on the wall:When Y ou See That Y ou Can Find And Enjoy New Cheese, Y ou Change Course.Haw just hoped he was heading in the right direction. He thought about the possibility that Hem would read The Handwriting On The Wall & find his way. He wrote on the wall what he had been thinking about for some time: Noticing Small Changes Early Helps Y ou Adapt To The Bigger Changes That Are To Come.He continued on through the Maze with greater strength & speed. He proceeded along a corridor that was new to him, rounded a corner, & found New Cheese at Cheese Station N where he saw the greatest supply of Cheese he had ever seen.Sniff & Scurry welcomed him.“Hooray for Change!”Haw wrote down a summary of what he had learned on the largest wall of Cheese Station N & smiled as he looked at what he had learned:THE HANDWRITING ON THE W ALL?Change Happens?Anticipate Change?Monitor Change?Adapt To Change QuicklyChange?Enjoy Change !?Be Ready To Change Quickly & Enjoy It Again.Move With The Cheese &Enjoy It !。
双语小说阅读:《谁动了我的奶酪》(1)Once, long ago in a land far away, there lived four little characters who ran through a maze looking for cheese to nourish them and make them happy.从前,在一个遥远的地方,住着四人小家伙。
为了填饱肚子和享受乐趣,他们每天在不远处的一座奇妙的迷宫里跑来跑去,在那里寻找一种叫做"奶酪"的黄橙橙、香喷喷的食物。
Two were mice named ''Sniff'' and ''Scurry'' and two were little people --beings who were as small as mice but who looked and acted a lot like people today. Their names were "Hem" and "Haw".有两个小家伙是老鼠,一个叫"嗅嗅",另一个叫"匆匆"。
另外两个家伙则是小矮人,和老鼠一般大小,但和人一个模样,而且他们的行为也和我们今天的人类差不多。
他的名字,一个叫"哼哼",另一个叫"唧唧"。
Due to their small size, it would be easy not to notice what the four of them were doing. But if you looked closely enough, you could discover the most amazing things!由于他们四个实在太小了,他们在干什么当然不太会吸引起旁人的注意。
但如果你凑近去仔细观察,你会发现许多令人惊奇不已的事情!Every day, the mice and the little people spent time in the Maze looking for their own special cheese.The mice, Sniff and Scurry, possessing only simple rodent brains, but good instincts, searched for the hard nibbling cheese they liked, as mice often do.两个老鼠和两个小矮人每天都在迷宫中度过,在其中寻找他们各自喜欢的奶酪。
嗅嗅、匆匆的大脑和其他啮齿类动物的差不多一样简单,但他们有很好的直觉。
和别的老鼠一样,他们喜欢的是那种适合啃咬的、硬一点的奶酪。
The two little people, Hem and Haw, used their brains, filled with many beliefs and emotions, to search for a very different kind of Cheese -- with a capital C -- which they believed would make them feel happy and successful.而那两个小矮人,哼哼和唧唧,则靠脑袋行事,他们的脑袋里装满了各种信念和情感。
他们要找的是一种带字母"C"的奶酪。
他们相信,这样的奶酪会给他们带来幸福,使他们成功。
As different as the mice and little people were, they shared something in common. Every morning, they each put on their jogging suits and running shoes, left their little homes, and raced out into the Maze looking for their favorite cheese.尽管小老鼠和小矮人的目标各不相同,但他们做的事情是差不多的。
每天早上,他们会各自穿上运动服和慢跑鞋,离开他们的小房子,跑进迷宫寻找他们各自钟爱的奶酪。
The Maze was a labyrinth of corridors and chambers, some containing delicious cheese. But therewere also dark corners and blind alleys leading nowhere. It was an easy place for anyone to get lost.迷宫中有许多曲折的走廊和好像蜂窝似的房间,其中的一些房间里藏着美味的奶酪,但更多的地方则是黑暗的角落和隐蔽的死胡同,任何人走进去都很容易迷路。
However, for those who found their way, the Maze held secrets that let them enjoy a better life.同时,这座迷宫还有一种神奇的力量,对那些找到出路的人,它能使他们享受到美好的生活。
The mice, Sniff and Scurry, used a simple trial-and-error method of finding cheese. They ran down one corridor and, if it proved empty, they turned and ran down another. They remembered the corridors that held no cheese and quickly went into new areas.两上小老鼠,嗅嗅和匆匆,总是运用简单低效的反复尝试的办法找奶酪。
他们跑进一条走廊,如果走廊里的房间都是空的,他们就返回来,再去另一个走廊搜寻。
没有奶酪的走廊他们都会记住。
就这样,很快地他们从一个地方找到另一个地方。
Sniff would smell out the general direction of the cheese, using his great nose, and Scurry would race ahead. They got lost, as you might expect, went off in the wrong direction and often bumped into walls. But after a while, they found their way.嗅嗅可以用他那了不起的鼻子嗅出奶酪的大,匆匆则跑到前面开路。
然而迷宫太大太复杂,如你所料,他们经常会迷路,离开正道走错了方向,有时甚至还会撞到墙上。
Like the mice, the two little people, Hem and Haw, also used their ability to think and learn from their past experiences. However, they relied on their complex brains to develop more sophisticated methods of finding Cheese.而两个小矮人,哼哼和唧唧,则运用他们思考的能力,从过去的经验中学习。
他们靠复杂的脑袋,搞出了一套复杂的寻找奶酪的方法。
Sometimes they did well, but at other times their powerful human beliefs and emotions took over and clouded the way they looked at things. It made life in the Maze more complicated and challenging.哼哼和唧唧的方法比他们的老鼠朋友要高效,然而有时候,人类复杂的头脑所带来的复杂感情也会战胜他们的理性思维,使他们看问题的眼光变得黯然起来。
这也使得他们在迷宫中的生活更加复杂化,也更具有挑战性了。
Nonetheless, Sniff; Scurry, Hem and Haw all discovered, in their own way, what they were looking for. They each found their own kind of cheese one day at the end of one of the corridors in Cheese Station C.但是不管怎样,这四个家伙--嗅嗅与匆匆,哼哼和唧唧都以他们各自的方式不懈地追寻着他们想要得到的东西。
最后,终于有一天,在某个走廊的尽头,在奶酪C站,他们都找到了自己想要的奶酪。
Every morning after that, the mice and the little people dressed in their running gear and headed over to Cheese Station C. It wasn't long before they each established their own routine.从那以后,这四个家伙,小老鼠和小矮人,每天早上穿上他们的跑步装备后便毫不犹豫地直奔奶酪C站。
不久,他们都建立了熟悉的路线,并形成了各自的生活习惯。
Sniff and Scurry continued to wake early every day and race through the Maze, always following the same route.嗅嗅和匆匆仍旧每天都起得很早,然后沿着相同的路线跑进迷宫中。
When they arrived at their destination, the mice took off their running shoes, tied them together and hung them around their necks-so they could get to them quickly whenever they needed them again. Then they enjoyed the cheese.当老鼠们到达目的地后,他们脱下自己的跑鞋,有条不紊地将两只鞋系在一起,挂在脖子上--以便需要有时候能够很快穿上。
