　　英語神話故事篇二：

　　古代神話《精衛填海》中說，炎帝的小女兒女娃游東海溺死后，為了報仇，便化做精衛鳥，“常銜西山之山石，以堙于東海”。后來，一只海燕飛過東海時無意間看見了精衛,他為她的行為感到困惑不解,但了解了事情的起因之后,海燕為精衛大無畏的精神所打動,就與其結成了夫妻，生出許多小鳥，雌的像精衛，雄的像海燕。小精衛和她們的媽媽一樣，也去銜石填海。直到今天，她們還在做著這種工作。

　　Long long time ago, there lived a little princess named Niu Wa (女娃) who was the youngest daughter of Emperor Yan, the legendary ruler in ancient Chinese mythology.

　　精衛填海講的是中國古代神話中炎帝寵愛的小女兒女兒的故事。

　　The littel princess loved watching the sunrise, admiring the spectacle of nature. She once asked her father where the sun rises. Her father said it was in the Eastern Sea and promised to take her there to see sunrise on a boat, but he had been too busy to do that.

　　女娃很喜歡看日出，喜歡大自然。她很想讓父親帶她出去，到東海——太陽升起的地方去看一看。可是因為父親忙于公事：太陽升起時來到東海,直到太陽落下;日日如此，總是不能帶她去

　　One day, the little princess got a boat behind her father's back, sailing to the Eastern Sea. When she was away from the shore, unfortunately, a strong wind rose and overthrew her boat. She was buried by the surging waves, being drowned quickly.

　　這一天，女娃沒告訴父親，便一個人駕著一只小船向東海太陽升起的地方劃去。不幸的是，海上突然起了狂風大浪，像山一樣的海浪把女娃的小船打翻了，女娃不幸落入海中，終被無情的大海吞沒了。

　　After her death, her spirit turned into a beautiful bird with white beak and red claws. Since it often stood on a branch, mourning herself sadly in the sound "jing wei, jing wei", people called it "Jing Wei".

　　女娃死了，她的精魂化作了一只小鳥，花腦袋，白嘴殼，紅色的爪子，十分可愛，可發出的，卻是“精衛、精衛”的悲鳴，所以，人們便叫此鳥為“精衛”。

　　Jing Wei hated the sea very much for taking her life. In order to revenge and keep other kids from being drown, the small bird decided to fill up the roaring sea.

　　精衛痛恨無情的大海奪去了自己年輕的生命，她要報仇雪恨。因此，她一刻不停地從她住的發鳩山上銜了一粒小石子，展翅高飛，一直飛到東海。

　　From then on, Jing Wei flew to and fro between the mountain and the Eastern sea, carrying a twig or a pebble and dropping it into the sea. Day after day, it never stopped.

　　從此以后，她在波濤洶涌的海面上回翔闃，悲鳴著，把石子樹枝投下去，想把大海填平。

　　Puzzled by its behaviors, the sea said to Jing Wei with irony, "Stop doing that, poor little bird, it is totally meaningless! You'll never fill me up."

　　大海奔騰著，咆哮著，嘲笑她：“小鳥兒，算了吧，你這工作就干一百萬年，也休想把我填平!”

　　To it, Jing Wei replied firmly, "I'll fill you up no doubt! I will, even if it'll take me thousands of years! I'll fight on until doomsday!"

　　精衛十分執著，在高空答復大海：“哪怕是干上一千萬年，一億年，干到宇宙的盡頭，世界的末日，我終將把你填平的!

　　The brave little bird kept carrying twigs and pebbles from the mountain to the Eastern Sea without taking a rest.

　　她銜呀，扔呀，成年累月，往復飛翔，從不停息。

　　英語神話故事篇三：

　　One day, when Houyi was out, Chang'e secretly swallowed the potion(一劑) in the hope that she would become immortal. The result was quite unexpected: she felt herself becoming light, so light that she flew up in spite of herself, drifting and floating in the air, until she reached the palace of the moon.

　　She is regarded by later generations as the goddess of the moon.

　　This beautiful story has always been liked by the Chinese and provides a favourite allusion(暗示) for poets and writers.

　　Chairman Mao Zedong's poem in memory of his martyred(有犧牲精神的) wife Yang Kaihui has these well - known lines:

　　The lonely moon goddess spreads her ample sleeves

　　To dance for these loyal souls in infinite space.

　　Here, in the Chinese original, the name Chang'e is used instead of "moon goddess".

　　The figure of Chang'e, a beauty dressed in the elegant garments of a bygone(過去的) age floating towards the moon, naturally supplies unending inspiration for painters and sculptors.

　　傳說古代天空中有10個太陽同時出來，大地被烤成焦土，后羿為民除害射掉了9個太陽，西天的王母娘娘獎賞他長生不老的仙藥。他的妻子嫦娥趁后羿不注意時偷吃了這些藥，突然她就成仙飛向天宮，王母娘娘懲罰她，讓她在廣寒宮里思過。

　　【典故】羿請不死之藥于西王母，姮娥竊以奔月，悵然有喪。西漢·劉安《淮南子·覽冥訓》
