英语故事短文篇一

Honorable judges, ladies and gentlemen,

The fairytale of Aladdin has always been my childhood

favorite. I was mesmerized by how Aladdin used his three

magic wishes. As a small girl, I dreamed of having the

magic wishes to go wherever I wanted to go and see

whatever I wanted to see. As you can probably guess, I

haven

found something just as exciting and it has made

marvelous changes in not only my life, but the lives of

all human-beings. It is called technology.

I still remember how my father told me about his

childhood back in those days when China was not as open

and developed as it is now. Children would run for

kilometers to school, make toys with wood by themselves,

and the biggest dream of a child was holding two jars of

sugar, one white, the other brown in each arm and having

the choice of eating whichever he wanted. Just look at

what we have now. Magnificent technological advancement

has opened up a whole new world to us.

However, just as our lives bee more convenient,

problems arise from this new life style. We seem to be

caged in the modern technology; we are thinking alike as

a result of using the same search engine, we are getting

lazy as most of our work can be done by machines, and we

are alienating people around us for we are more fortable

talking on phones and typing in front of a puter.

If I was given the chance to make my magic wishes now,

I would wish we could go back in time and live for three

days without advanced technology. I wonder what we would

do in those three days. Here is what I imagine:

On the first day, people would be feeling so

unfortable with the new situation that they would

probably be confused and just not know what to do. The

world would be in a mess for the whole day.

On the second day, as life goes on, people would have

to find alternative ways to deal with their daily rituals:

students would have to go to libraries for information

they wanted instead of searching on Google; boys would

have to express their affection to girls in person

instead of sending an annoying txt message; and the young

people of today would have the chance to experience the

childhood of their parents. On this particular day, we

could recover all we had lost in the modern world.

Then es the third day. After the previous two days,

we would gradually e to realize that we should have paid

more attention to our studies and work as we actually

have so much creativity and potential within ourselves.

We would also realize that we should have spent more time

but to inspire us. This last day would be spent in sparks

of new ideas and sweet moments with our loved ones.

Maybe some would argue that it is just my imagination,

and that magic would never work in our world. True, but

magic can always work in our hearts, helping us

understand that we, instead of the machine, are the

masters of the world. The key is to treasure our human

initiative and connections, to see the world with our own

And when we do, we will live, as in the fairy tales,

happily ever after. Thank you.

two seemingly insignificant things: milkman and mailman,

whose differences indicate our changing way of living

with the times.

Home milk delivery has almost gone extinct in China

now, also gone with it are the milkmen, who once

delivered bottled fresh milk door-to-door. On the other

hand, mailman

thrived as online shopping gains popularity. However, in

retrospect, I find something has been lost in this

transition, something Shakespeare called as “the milk of

human kindness”.

When I was a kid, milk wasn

milkmen to take it from the local dairy farms to their

houses. In our neighborhood, there was such a milkman,

whose arrival was much anticipated by the children and

always brought us laughter and joy. He knew the name of

every kid and could easily see through our tricks. If we

threaten to rob us of the nutritious drink. The entire

neighborhood was acquainted with him; saw him as a member

of the munity just like the many residents or street

vendors. There was a bond between all of us for it was

not only the modities that been transacted, but also a

sense of caring and dependability. And that small box

fixed onto our door, other than being a drop-off point

for milk; it was a munication junction between the people

as we took the initiative to reach out to others.

Fast forward to today, milk is ubiquitous with no

dedicated delivery system. But the convenience level of

our live has gone up a notch. Almost everything is for

sale online, which spares us all the travelling and

talking. With a few ready clicks, shopping is done. The

rest is left for those speed delivery panies. Usually

urging everyone to pick up their parcels as soon as

possible. And the minute the receipt is signed, we rush

back to unpack while the courier dashes to the next

destination. There is barely a conversation carried out,

nor do we feel the need to talk to such a stranger, who

changes from time to time frequently. It seems that

people are always in a hurry now, though we have more

conveniences, still we run short of time to stop and

stare, to speak and share.

Call me an old-timer, but I think the personal touch

represented by the milkman is what has been missing in

the modern society. William Wordsworth once wrote that

“Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers.” Modern

technology may have multiplied our possessions or gave us

more conveniences, but we run the risk of reducing our

values if we lay waste our power of interpersonal

relationships.

most important lesson – we must place our mind in

harmony with the natural order of things to be successful.

Let me tell you what happened.

I decided to take part in an International Marathon

in my hometown last year. Being an ambitious person, I

hoped to finish it within 5 hours, acpanied by my friend

with whom I had trained.

The big day finally arrived. “Ready...set...bang”

And we were off.

At first, we kept a rapid pace and ran nonstop. At

this pace, we finished the first 20 kilometers in 2 hours

and I thought running a marathon was a piece of cake.

Then my running mate began to slow down. I urged him to

keep running at the same pace but he said no, he wanted

to conserve his energy. I felt I had partnered with the

wrong person, therefore, I sprinted on and left him

behind in the dust.

A few kilometers later, I began to understand his

strategy as my pace slowed to a jog then a walk. After

that I was incapable of moving another step. I was

humiliated as more and more people ran passed me. More
