丑小鸭英文故事梗概
Long ago, in a farmyard many miles away, a Mother Duck sat on her nest. She was waiting for her eggs to hatch. Each day she proudly looked at them. There were six eggs, which meant six little ducklings to teach to swim.
One sunny spring morning, the first egg began to crack..
'Tap, tap, tap,' went the duckling inside, trying to get out. Mother Duck watched as the egg cracked open and out popped a fluffy duckling.
"One," said Mother Duck proudly.
The next day, the second egg hatched and out popped another fluffy duckling.
"Two," said Mother Duck proudly.
On the third day, duckling number three hatched.
"That leaves just three," said Mother Duck.
On the fourth and fifth day, ducklings number four and five hatched.
"That leaves just one," said Mother Duck, as she settled on her nest. Her ducklings gathered around her.
But on the sixth day nothing happened. Nor on the seventh.
"How strange," said Mother Duck on the seventh day. "It should have hatched by now."
One of the farmyard chickens wandered by.
"Oh," she said. "You're still there I thought you'd be on the pond by now."
"It's this last egg," said Mother Duck. "It hasn't hatched yet."
"Let me see," said the chicken. "Well no wonder. It looks like a goose egg to me. You'll be here for a long time."
"Oh dear," said Mother Duck. "I have my five little ducklings to teach to swim. What shall I do? I can't leave it."
"Aah well," said the chicken, and she wandered off.
The goose heard that one of her eggs was in Mother Duck's nest.
"Is it true?" she asked, as she puffed up to the nest. "Do you have one of my eggs?"
"I think so," said Mother Duck. They both looked in the nest.
"Huh," said the goose. "That's not mine. It looks more like that absent-minded turkey's egg."
As they looked, they suddenly heard the faint tapping. The shell was breaking.
"We'll soon see," said the goose.
They watched and waited.
"Oh," said the goose.
"Oh, dear," said Mother Duck, as she looked at the sixth duckling. It looked most strange, it was straggly and grey where its brothers and sisters were fluffy and yellow. It was also bigger than them.
It quacked as it saw its mother.
"Well, if it's a turkey," said the goose, "it won't swim."
Mother Duck hurried her ducklings to the pond. She waddled in and listened. Splash! Splish! Splosh! Splash! Splish! She turned and looked. All six ducklings followed her in the water.
"Oh, well," she said. "He can swim. He is definitely not a turkey."
The sixth duckling was very good at swimming, and was soon swimming better than his brothers and sisters.
Back at the farmyard, things did not go well for the little duckling. Everyone called him an ugly duckling. The chickens laughed at him, the turkeys chased him and the geese hissed at him.
Soon even his brothers and sisters would not talk to him, but when his mother turned away, he was very sad. He decided to leave the farmyard.
One sunny morning, he walked out of the farmyard and didn't look back. He wandered away, looking for somewhere new to live.
When he'd been walking a while he came to a large lake. There were some ducks swimming on it.
He swam up to them.
"May I stay on this lake?" he asked.
"Of course," said the ducks. "We'll be moving on soon. Why don't you join us, if you're on your own?"
"Thank you," said the duckling.
The duckling stayed on the lake and day by day he grew bigger. One day he looked up to see some large white birds flying gracefully over the lake.
"They're beautiful," he whispered, and then sighed. "I wonder who they are?"
One day the ducks came to see him.
"It's autumn, and we're going now," they told him, "join us if you want to."
Some ducks began to fly up to leave, but suddenly loud bangs were heard. Two of the ducks fell from the sky. Others flew up in fright, and more fell as more bangs were heard.
The duckling ran and hid. He found a bush and stayed there until the noise had died down. When it was quiet he sadly left the lake and headed away over the fields.
He came to another lake and there he stayed. Winter was coming and he was alone. As the days grew colder, he found that it was harder to find food.
The one morning he woke and found that he couldn't move. The lake had frozen and he was stuck in the ice. The day passed and the duckling was giving up hope of being found. But late in the afternoon a man walking his dog saw him. He broke the ice, and the duckling was free. He ran across the ice and hid. He didn't dare to go on the ice again.
Winter passed, spring came, and the ice melted.
The duckling stretched his wings and found that they were strong enough to carry him. He flew upon and over the lake, high above the trees and fields. He should have been very happy, but he was not because he felt so lonely.
A few days later, he looked up to see the large white birds he had seen in the autumn. They looked beautiful as they landed on the lake. The duckling admired their glossy white feathers and long necks. He swan over to take a closer look at them.
"Please," he said shyly. "Will you tell me who you are. You are so beautiful and I am so ugly. I've never seen anybody like you."
"Ugly," cried one of the white birds. "How silly!"
"We're swans," said another. "Why do you think you're ugly? Look at yourself in the water."
The duckling looked and caught sight of his own reflection. He gasped in surprise, for instead of seeing a fat, grey duckling he saw a swan with a long elegant neck and a bright orange bill. "I'm like you," he cried. "I'm a swan, too."
"Definitely," said the swan, with a smile.
"Does that mean I can stay with you, and not live alone?"
"Of course," said the swans.
At that moment two children ran down to the lake. "Ooh, look!" they cried. "The swans are back and there's a new one, too. Isn't he beautiful!"
The ugly duckling stretched his neck and ruffled his feathers with pride.
Then it was time to go flying with all of the other swans and, as the duckling took off from the lake, he could see his new beautiful reflection in the water.

1、经典童话故事《丑小鸭》心得
我读过这样一篇童话，是丹麦著名作家安徒生的作品——《丑小鸭》。
这个故事讲述的是一只长得很丑的小鸭的成长史。丑小鸭在成长过程中因为长得丑而处处受人欺负，人们嫌弃她，动物不但不和她玩，而且还讽刺她，打她。丑小鸭受尽折磨，差点在寒冷的冬天孤独死去。风和日丽，当春天来临时，丑小鸭非常伤心，春天有这么美的景色，为什么我要受其他人和动物的欺负呢?一不小心，丑小鸭跌进了湖中，她绝望了，便决定任其沉下水。然而，丑小鸭不但没有沉下去，反而在水面上看到了一只白天鹅的影子。她是多么羡慕啊!抬头四顾，却见不到一只天鹅，后来一想，原来自己就是天鹅，她欣喜若狂!
这篇文章告诉了我们一个道理：一个人长得丑，不代表他们心灵不美;一个人长得美，却不能代表他们心灵很美。多少人都在追求美，却追不到，他们恨上天不公平，可以吗?这是不能改变的事实啊!于是有人去医院整容，强忍剧痛，换来的却不是真实的自己。我们不与人比美貌，要比的应该是自己的才能。外表的美是次要的，重要的是心灵美。
读了这篇文章，更让我懂得了一个很平凡却又很重要的道理：只要努力，就有成功的机会。我们都是平凡人，我们需要一步一步走向成功!自己的外貌并不重要，重要的是自己的美好品质。不管做什么事，都要坚持，坚持就是胜利!坚持就是希望!
2、经典童话故事《丑小鸭》心得
今天，我看了一本世界闻名的童话大师安徒生的经典之作——《安徒生童话》，我觉得，这本童话可以使任何人陶醉!
我看的是《安徒生童话》中很有名的一篇——《丑小鸭》。我敢肯定，这篇童话可以使人从贫困中走出来，这当中的主要因素是——坚强，因为只有坚强的决心才能战胜困难，甚至还能让人们战胜虚荣心，爱慕虚荣心的孩子心中没有坚强的决心。
假如我是一个这样的孩子，我的心中只有一个信念，那就是——向本文的主人公丑小鸭学习，因为我想，有一个能有丑小鸭精神的人肯定是一个了不起的人才，你想一个有坚定的决心的人，既然下定了决心，就一定不会虎头蛇尾、半途而废吧。
我一定要向丑小鸭学习，学习它那坚强和永不后退的精神，使我的人生之路更加光辉灿烂!
3、经典童话故事《丑小鸭》心得
最近我读了《安徒生童话》这一本书，这本书的作者是丹麦的安徒生，它讲的故事十分的吸引人的眼球，这也是为什么我要先读这一本书的原因了，它的故事有些很熟悉，有的很陌生。
我还记得小时候妈妈给我讲过的故事，我到现在都还没有忘记，其中占最多的就是安徒生童话，最让我难忘的故事是《丑小鸭》。
《丑小鸭》讲的是从前有一只母鸭下了蛋，刚好一个鹅蛋也落到了那只母鸭的巢里，于是就被母鸭孵了出来，可因为他长的很丑，大家都嘲笑他，他自己也非常自卑，于是独自离开了这个地方。他一路上遇到了好多事，虽然没有让他受到太大的伤害，但是还是使他越来越自卑了，直到有一天，他遇到了一群天鹅，他本来想靠近他们，因为他们太美丽了，而自己太丑了，可是天鹅看到了他，他们说：“你是谁啊?为什么长的那么漂亮!”丑小鸭听了一愣，他看了一下水中的自己，接着，他看到了一只长的十分漂亮的天鹅，他才知道了自己是一只天鹅。
我从这个故事里知道了，我们要像丑小鸭一样，自己小时候要努力学习，还要懂得吃苦，长大以后就会让自己变的幸福了，这是《安徒生童话》教给我的道理。
4、经典童话故事《丑小鸭》心得
丑小鸭是《安徒生童话》中大家非常熟悉的一个角色，再次捧起这本书的时候，我依旧十分喜欢读《丑小鸭》。
丑小鸭一生下来就被人嘲笑，遭人遗弃，因为它长得可真丑。但是面对兄弟姐妹的嘲笑，它从来没有怨恨过它们，甚至还会为它们担心。而且它从来不为自己是只丑陋的鸭子而感到自卑。如果我是丑小鸭，我不仅会很自卑，也不会这样宽容地面对别人的嘲笑，说不定我一时冲动还会报复别人呢。想到这，我惭愧了。前些天，同学林延伸只是开玩笑伸手拍了一下我，我就以为他在存心欺负我，于是委屈地报告了老师。想起这些，我就很后悔。丑小鸭在别人的冷言冷语中生活都没有怨恨，那我们平时就更不能为一些小事而伤同学间的和气了。
丑小鸭的心地如此善良，让我想起了我们学过的课文《落花生》里的一句话：“人要做有用的人，不能做只讲体面，而对别人没有好处的人。”外表丑陋是不重要的，重要的是心地善良。我想丑小鸭最后变成了白天鹅是由于它的善良，还有它从来没有瞧不起过自己，虽然自己很丑，但是它从来没有放弃过追求美丽。面对白天鹅的美丽，它不是嫉妒，而是发自内心赞美它。而我们有些同学哪一方面不好，就总显得不自信，不敢大胆地追求进步。也有一些同学，内心很容易嫉妒优秀的同学。
面对丑小鸭，我们都应该好好反省自己。难道不是这样的吗?
5、经典童话故事《丑小鸭》心得
安徒生童话是一本具有吸引力的童话书，安徒生他一生写了168篇童话，其代表作有《海的女儿》、《丑小鸭》、《卖火柴的小女孩》等。安徒生的童话具有独特的艺术风格，即有诗意的美，也有喜剧性的幽默。
其中，丑小鸭这个故事给我留下的印象最深。内容讲的是：从前，鸭妈妈的蛋窝里孵出了一只小鸭子，它长得难看极了，大家都讨厌它，于是叫它“丑小鸭”的故事。丑小鸭从小在鸭妈妈的蛋窝里长大，它想：我生下来就是这个样子，没办法改变，不过我可以学本领，像其它小鸭一样能干。于是，它跟鸭妈妈学游泳，替养它的主人看家，遇到困难时它坚强面对，永不退缩。最后，它变成了一只会飞的、美丽的“白天鹅”。
通过读了丑小鸭这个故事我懂得了要认识自己，相信自己，总有一天，我也会像“丑小鸭”一样变成“白天鹅”的。我们的学习也是这样，遇到困难时要对自己有信心，如果你不坚强面对，就不会有好的结果。
