[妙语短篇a1]妙语短篇妙语短篇一:我的阅读故事作文大全阅读是我们一大乐趣，那么我们在阅读的时候又有什么故事呢？下面一起看看我的阅读故事作文大全了解了解吧！第一篇：我的阅读故事我一直酷爱读书，在我的阅读经历中，融入了酸甜苦辣，下面我将一一道来。

说到酸这个字，大家大概都会想起那杨梅吧。

杨梅虽酸，但给人的感觉只是味觉上的酸，但读书的酸则是心酸，它更酸。

让我告诉你吧：刚开始，我读书时并不自觉，都是被爸爸痛骂后，鼻子都酸着才去看，那时我什么也看不进去，回过头来考试时，脑子里一片空白，看到成绩后心里酸酸的。

说到甜，是上了三年级以后发现自己作文写得不好，于是我学会了主动去阅读，后来竟然迷上了看书，隔几天就催爸爸妈妈为我购买新书。

渐渐地，我学会了借鉴他人作品中的优美词句。

所以，在三年级下半学期我的作文水平不断提高，作文总在90分以上，每次老师评出的好作文都有我，所以老爸的打印机开始不停地为我工作起来。

说到苦，我最了解。

迷上书后，总想抽空读一读，但是因为我写作业动作慢，总抽不出时间供自己去阅读，因此整天想着书，弄得我成绩有所下降，不管怎样都克制不了，命太苦了，书使我快着魔了。

说到辣嘛，我受过不知多少次了，我总是趁着午休时，在床底下藏一本书，等爷爷闭目养神或看报纸时偷偷看，却不止一次被发现，然后受“暴风雨”的袭击。

这就是我的阅读生活，它融合着各种滋味，但却丰富多彩。

第二篇：我的阅读故事“书犹药也，善读之可以医愚。

”“读书破万卷，下笔如有神。

”古往今来，无数的成功人士之所以能在各方面取得成功，就是因为他们读了许多好书，有着对书的强烈的热爱与兴趣。

现在，从书中获益匪浅的我也对书产生了巨大的好感，有时还会沉醉于书的情节中，无法自拔。

记得我爱看书是从一年级开始的。

当时我有一本厚厚的注音版《安徒生童话》，因为刚学会了拼音，不懂的字便能很快地掌握，所以我识的字越来越多，知识面也越来越广。

班里的小朋友遇到了什么不认识的字，基本上都来找我。

1.一个不一样的回答四个女孩每天乘出租车去上学。

一天其中之一女孩说“今天早上有一个测试。

让我们晚点去上学，然后我们将不用不得不参加考试”。

“我们能告诉老师什么？”其中一个说：“他会很生气，我们需要一个很好的借口。

”女孩们想了一会儿，然后他们其中之一说：“让我们告诉他我们的出租车一个轮子爆胎了.”“那真是个好主意”另一个女孩说：“我们告诉他那样”他们到校1小时以后，考试已经结束了“你们为何迟到”老师问：“你们错过了考试”“我们的出租车有一轮胎爆掉了”其中一个女孩说道老师想了一会儿，然后他说：“坐下，你们各个在房间的每个角落”四个女孩这样做了然后老师说“在纸上写下回答问题：那个轮胎爆了？”2/在地上的洞曾有个农夫他生活在一条路附近他不是一条很热闹的路，但时不时的，车经过这片农场。

在农场门附近，有个很大的洞在路上这洞经常注满了水，并汽车的驾驶员不能看到这洞有多深，他们想它可能是浅的。

然后他们驶入了洞里，他们不能开出因为它太深了农夫不能花多的时间在农场上工作，他花最多看这个洞当汽车驶入洞里，他拉出卡车用他的拖拉机并且得到驾驶员的很多钱因为做这些一天，汽车的驾驶员对他说“你肯定赚了很多钱把车从洞里拉出日日夜夜”“哦不”农夫说“我不拉车从洞里晚上。

在晚上我用水灌满洞里。

”3 quick thinking思考迅速，敏捷的思维一天，托尼在路上遇见了他的朋友爱伦。

托尼很有钱，但是爱伦很穷。

两个男孩一起沿着路走。

他们谈论了许多事情。

托尼喜欢听音乐，并且告诉爱伦关于许多新歌。

爱伦喜欢看书，并且告诉托尼关于许多新书。

他们有共同的朋友，也谈论他们。

接着托尼想起了一些事情“我上个星期借给你十美元，”托尼说“你能还给我吗？”“我很抱歉，尼”爱伦说“我忘记了”他想了几分钟关于这个钱，然后他说：“我今天没带钱，我明天会给你”“好吧”托尼说“我可以再等一天”在这时一个男人跑来，他手里拿了一把刀，爱伦和托尼都很害怕，他是个危险的男人。
