英语故事短文精卫填海 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. 精卫填海讲的是中国古代神话中炎帝宠爱的小女儿女儿的故事。 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. 女娃很喜欢看日出，喜欢大自然。她很想让父亲带她出去，到东海——太阳升起的地方去看一看。可是因为父亲忙于公事：太阳升起时来到东海,直到太阳落下;日日如此，总是不能带她去 One day, the little princess got a boat behind her fathers 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. 这一天，女娃没告诉父亲，便一个人驾着一只小船向东海太阳升起的地方划去。不幸的是，海上突然起了狂风大浪，像山一样的海浪把女娃的小船打翻了，女娃不幸落入海中，终被无情的大海吞没了。 After her death, her spirit turned into a beautiful bird with white beak and red claws.

Day after day, it never stopped. 从此以后，她在波涛汹涌的海面上回翔阒，悲鸣着，把石子树枝投下去，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! Youll never fill me up. 大海奔腾着，咆哮着，嘲笑她：“小鸟儿，算了吧，你这工作就干一百万年，也休想把我填平!” To it, Jing Wei replied firmly, Ill fill you up no doubt! I will, even if itll take me thousands of years! Ill fight on until doo
