第一篇:超经典故事
超经典故事:
【裤子】
女孩买了条裤子,一试太长,请奶奶帮忙剪短,奶奶说忙;找妈妈,也没空;找姐姐,更没空。女孩失望地入睡了。奶奶忙完家务想起小孙女的裤子,就把裤子剪短了一点;姐姐回来又把裤子剪短了;妈妈回来也把裤子剪短了,最后裤子没法穿了。
管理的弊端就在于:要么都不管,要么都来管!
【危机感】
老虎抓到一头鹿后要把它吃掉!鹿说:“你不能吃我!” 老虎愣了一下,问:“为什么?” 鹿:“因为我是国家二级保护动物!” 老虎大笑道:“总不能为了二级保护动物而让一级保护动物饿死吧?!”
感悟:时刻保持危机感,不要让自己那点优势害死。
【杯子】
当一只玻璃杯中装满牛奶的时候,人们会说“这是牛奶”;当改装菜油的时候,人们会说“这是菜油”。只有当杯子空置时,人们才看到杯子,说“这是一只杯子”。同样,当我们心中装满成见、财富、权势的时候,就已经不是自己了;人往往热衷拥有很多,却往往难以真正的拥有自己
【结婚为什么要戴钻戒?】
这不是一个爱情故事,而是一个非常、非常成功的营销故事:1938年,钻石价格急剧下降,戴比尔斯向广告公司寻求援助,希望扭转颓势。1939年,其推出“钻石恒久远,一颗永流传”(A diamond is forever)经典广告语,成功将钻石包装成婚礼必备品。
【个人与团队】
老师问弟子:一滴水如何能不干枯?弟子沉默不语。老师说道:一滴水,风可以将它吹干、土可以把它吸干、太阳可以把它蒸发,要想要不干枯,只有让它融入大海。一个人无力独撑天下,要想获得成功,就得学会与人合作,独木难林,这就是我们常说的:再强大的个人都不如一个团结的组织。
【舒适营销】
通常地铁站里很少有供人休息的座位。即使有也是一些“硌屁股”的硬座。宜家抓住这一点,搞了一次创意活动,他们在巴黎地铁站里摆上许多沙发,一来是供等车的乘客休息,二来是让更多的人体验到他们家具的舒适。这次“舒适”营销非常成功,很多坐过沙发的乘客都表示有购买意愿。

第三篇:超感人的爱情短篇故事
每一个人都向往着美好的爱情,所以那些爱情故事总是能感动着我们,接下来由小编为大家整理了超感人的爱情短篇故事,希望对大家能有所帮助!
篇一:谁动了我的眼镜
第一次见面,她就喜欢上了他,戴着付眼镜,一身书卷气,一口洁白的牙齿,让人觉得很阳光,很帅气。
有时,她又觉得他有那么一点点的书呆子气。就说眼前吧,公园里哪一对恋人不是拥在一起的,有的还往小树林里钻。而只有他们两个依着栏杆看着水里的小鱼嬉闹,两人之间还保持着一点距离,认识到现在,他甚至连她的手都没有拉过!
她知道他也是喜欢她的,就是不敢主动点。而她自己也不是很现代的,让她先怎么来着她也不敢。两个人就这样静静地注视着水面,彼此能听到对方的心跳。
夕阳就要下山了,火一样的晚霞映红了半边天,也映得两人的脸红红的。她忽然有点气恼起来,真想一脚把他踢到水里喂金鱼。一想到这,她的心里闪过一个念头,对!得治治他,她抿嘴一笑。
“哎——”她抬起手叫了他一声,他转过脸,她的手“碰巧”在他的脸上拂过,眼镜从他的鼻子上滑了下来,掉进水里冒个泡不见了。他急得叫了起来,没有眼镜他可是什么也看不清。她说对不起,我下去捞上来吧!他说,算了吧,再买一个,附近不是有个眼镜店吗?
真美!公园到处都被披上一层华丽的金黄,那是夕阳得意杰作。她扶着他慢慢地走了出来,两只潮湿的手紧紧地抓在一起。她想明天一定要想尽办法偷偷地把那个眼镜捞上来,好好珍藏着。
篇二:只有傻子才会在爱情路上比输赢
紫苏一直觉得自己能赢得左放,就像拔河,紫苏始终占着上风,左放一直往回拉,紫苏却纹丝不动,最终等左放只好放弃,而紫苏赢的,除了一个华丽的转身,什么都没有。
如果说年少时我们不懂爱情,可长大后的我们为什么迷失在爱情里。
紫苏和左放上高中时就背着家里和学校偷偷的恋爱,那时两人连手都没敢拉过,只有在学校走廊里看到对方时,偷偷的看一眼对方。
高三那时,两人为考同一所大学而拼命学习,大学入取通知书下来后,两人拿着各自的通知书,跑到小河边,两人互相望着对方,左放伸出手掌,紫苏轻轻的把手放在左放的手心里,脸红的低下了头。
两人在大学毕业后不久结婚了,他们虽然对婚后的生活充满了希望,可总是吵架,照理说,两人在一起这么多年了,都互相了解了,不会出现磨合期,可左放经常会说一些让紫苏特别伤心的话,一次两次紫苏忍了,可事不过三,第三次左放说:紫苏新买的鞋子好像套在了猪蹄里一样,穿什么都白搭。
这一句话把紫苏惹急了:“姓左的,你看不上我了,我知道,你在外面看上了别的小狐狸精,别以为我不知道”紫苏站在厨房间背对着左放。
就为这一句话,矛盾激化了,两人冷战了半年,平静的分手了,按紫苏的话说:三条腿的蛤蟆不好找,两条腿的男人满大街都是,左放没钱还不体贴,离了干净。
感情就这么怪,什么关系都没有了,反而更能向朋友一样相处,左放经常会给紫苏打电话嘘寒问暖,其实左放心里还是爱着紫苏。
“别跟我这么暧昧,你以前要是这么关心我这么体贴我,我也不会跟你离婚的,别假惺惺的”这天左放又给紫苏打电话,被紫苏骂了一通。
“你咋这么笨,紫苏是想让你开口求和呢”左放的姐姐在给左放收拾房间时,听到左放在念叨他最近跟紫苏的一举一动。
老姐的话,让左放吃了一惊,一拍脑门:“我怎么没想到呢”于是左放就开始回忆紫苏的好,紫苏虽然脾气有些急,有时会像个孩子,家务不是很好,但还是疼我的。
“复婚,不可能,我才不想给你等门,我才不想应付你哪些狐朋狗友,还有没完没了的七大姑八大姨,有一次就够了,再说,左放我交了男朋友,人虽然老了一些,没你精神,但很体贴我,也很有钱”左放来家里找紫苏求和,被紫苏一口气回绝了
左放有些生气,可他又不知道说什么,转身走了
两家的父母都希望两人和好如初,毕竟两人在一起这么多年了,出一家进一家不容易,哪还有这么了解他们的人呢。
正好紫苏的爸爸下个月过生日,这正好是让两人和好的机会,紫苏的妈妈背着紫苏给左放打了电话,让他那天务必来吃饭,一切都悄悄的进行着,谁知事与愿违。
生日那天,两家的父母都早已到了,左放给紫苏买了一大把玫瑰还有一枚求婚戒指,打算在两家老人面前给紫苏表个态,谁知等到6点,紫苏才慢悠悠的来了,还带来了她新交的男友,一进门紫苏的新男友就往外给紫苏的老爸掏礼物,其实紫苏进门时看见左放的那一大把玫瑰,可她就当没看见一样,始终一句话没和左放说。
场面有些尴尬,左放愣了一会,狠劲的推门出去了,左放的父母随后也走了。
往后的日子里左放的电话渐渐的少了,这让紫苏有些失落,她不想这么气左放,只不过是想让左放多在乎她一些,没想到有些过头了。
左放在紫苏的眼前消失了,消失的一点声息都没有,突然一个深秋的午后,紫苏收到左放的结婚请柬,紫苏打开请柬,看到左放的身边多了一个漂亮的女孩,那个女孩有着和紫苏一样迷人的眼睛,紫苏的泪慢慢流了下来。
紫苏失去了左放,失去了。。。
篇三:我不是你的那颗星
那年我十六岁,正在上幼师。有天下午,我拿着大扫帚很卖力地做大扫除时,有人递给我一封信。我疑惑地打开信封,是个我不认识的男生写来的,信中说:“我们学校的男生对你的评价是:端庄、文雅、大方。我希望与你成为朋友。”
那天晚上我练完琴,去他的教室找他。我们站在教室外的草坪上,满教楼的灯光扑泻下来,他低头踢着地上的草,问我:“你收到我的信了?”我说:“我收到了。我答应做你的朋友。”
我们就这样成为了朋友。
他是一个高个子大眼睛的漂亮男孩,话很少。路上见了面,互相笑一笑,就过去了,班主任严格要求杜绝与男生交往,我和那个男孩很平淡地保持着若有若无的联系。在我的心里,真的有一个很好的朋友在那里。
记得有一次文学社组织郊游,我背了许多吃的喝的,还没开始爬山已满头大汗。那个男生自己也背了一个大包,但还是把我的包接了过去。在众多的男生女生中,只有他一个人知道来帮我,我真是很欣慰,觉得有朋友真好。我还记得他拾了好多银杏叶塞到我的包里。我一掏东西,银杏叶就掉下来,如蝶飞舞。那天的秋阳一直明晃晃的,天高云也淡。
转眼该毕业了。我们班上举行告别联欢晚会。我去教室时,他们班一个女生告诉我他在假山旁等我,有话要告诉我。我答应了一声,先去参加晚会。等想起那个男孩,早已到了第二天早上。起了床,寝室的同学都已下辞而别。我蹲在地上,烧我几年间积下的废纸。他和一个男生来找我。我们坐在一间凄凉的寝室里,无话可说。我才发现,我们做了一年多的好朋友,彼此之间居然还十分陌生。我们一起遵守着学校的纪律,现在这纪律不再约束我们,我却找不到与他交谈的话题。
那个暑假,我还没去单位报到,住在学校招待所编一本关于第一个教师节的书。隔三岔五的,他会给我送几个甜瓜、梨子,在房子里坐一坐。因为急着出书,我们常加班看校样,他也不打扰我。有天早上,很早,他敲开我的门,说他要走了,要送我一本影集。我当时很穷,没有东西可以回赠,就坚决推辞。他说,我不需要你任何回报,我只希望你收下我的这个影集。我只好收下。等他走后,我打开看看,一颗红色的五角星端放在中央。我不知道那个时候他怎么还有那种五角星,拿在手里,我心里充满感动。
我上班以后,他还常来看我,每次都站在窗外,托人叫我。我会很快跑出去,问他有没有事,他总是说:“没事,想念你,就来看看,你去忙吧。”我就去忙了,也不知我为什么会那么忙。
后来我恋爱了。我写信告诉他,汇报我恋爱的进展,没在意他从不给我回信。后来总算收到他一封信。他说:“你是我这一生爱上的第一个女孩。但我知道,你是我头上天空中那颗明亮的星星,我只能仰视你,却永远不可能摘取你。”
不经意之间,我已残酷地伤害了这个纯情的男孩子。我大哭一场,再没给他写过信。
我结婚时,我的一个幼师同学对我说:“我们上学时,都以为你将来肯定会嫁给他。我们都还有些嫉妒你呢!没想到你居然嫁了别人。他是多么优秀啊!”
我无言以对。
这些年,我再也没见过那个男孩。有时偶尔也会想起他,想起他一表人才,想起他送我红五星时的那份执著,就会有种酸酸的感觉,就会在心里真诚地祝福他,希望他过得和我一样幸福,还希望假如我曾是一颗悬在他头顶上的星,那么这颗星早已在他心里悄无声息地陨落。
因为我不是他的那颗星。

“You ridiculed the idea of my ever being able to help you, expecting to receive from me any repayment of your favor;now you know that it is possible for even a Mouse to con benefits on a Lion.”
狮子睡着了,有只老鼠跳到了他身上。狮子猛然站起来,把他抓住,准备吃掉。老鼠请求饶命,并说如果保住性命,必将报恩,狮子轻蔑地笑了笑,便把他放走了。不久,狮子真的被老鼠救了性命。原来狮子被一个猎人抓获,并用绳索把他捆在一棵树上。老鼠听到了他 的哀嚎,走过去咬断绳索,放走了狮子,并说:
“你当时嘲笑我,不相信能得到我的报答,现在可清楚了,老鼠也能报恩。” 这故事说明,时运交替变更,强者也会有需要弱者的时候。I'm Trying to Stop It “Boy, why have you got cotton-wool in your ear? Is it infected?” “No, sir, but you said yesterday that everything you told me went in one ear and out the other , so I am trying to stop it.” “孩子,你为什么用棉花塞住耳朵?它感染了吗?”

An old woman had a cat.The cat was very old;she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old.One day the old cat saw a mouse;she jumped and caught the mouse.But she could not bite it;so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it.Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed the mouse.She began to hit the cat.The cat said, “Do not hit your old servant.I have worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am too old.Do not be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young.”

老猫
一位老妇有只猫,这只猫很老,它跑不快了,也咬不了东西,因为它年纪太大了。一天,老猫发现一只老鼠,它跳过去抓这只老鼠,然而,它咬不住这只老鼠。因此,老鼠从它的嘴边溜掉了,因为老猫咬不了它。
于是,老妇很生气,因为老猫没有把老鼠咬死。她开始打这只猫,猫说:“不要打你的老仆人,我已经为你服务了很多年,而且还愿意为你效劳,但是,我实在太老了,对年纪大的不要这么无情,要记住老年人在年青时所做过的有益的事情。”
A man was going to the house of some rich person.As he went along the road, he saw a box of good apples at the side of the road.He said, “I do not want to eat those apples;for the rich man will give me much food;he will give me very nice food to eat.” Then he took the apples and threw them away into the dust.He went on and came to a river.The river had become very big;so he could not go over it.He waited for some time;then he said, “I cannot go to the rich man's house today, for I cannot get over the river.”
He began to go home.He had eaten no food that day.He began to want food.He came to the apples, and he was glad to take them out of the dust and eat them.Do not throw good things away;you may be glad to have them at some other time.【译文】
一个人正朝着一个富人的房子走去,当他沿着路走时,在路的一边他发现一箱好苹果,他说:“我不打算吃那些苹果,因为富人会给我更多的食物,他会给我很好吃的东西。”然后他拿起苹果,一把扔到土里去。
他继续走,来到河边,河涨水了,因此,他到不了河对岸,他等了一会儿,然后他说:“今天我去不了富人家了,因为我不能渡过河。”
他开始回家,那天他没有吃东西。他就开始去找吃的,他找到苹果,很高兴地把它们从尘土中翻出来吃了。
不要把好东西扔掉,换个时候你会觉得它们大有用处。
The City Mouse and the Country Mouse
Once there were two mice.They were friends.One mouse lived in the country;the other mouse lived in the city.After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse;he said, “Do come and see me at my house in the country.” So the City mouse went.The City mouse said, “This food is not good, and your house is not good.Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city.You would live in a nice house made of stone.You would have nice food to eat.You must come and see me at my house in the city.”
The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse.It was a very good house.Nice food was set ready for them to eat.But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise.The City mouse cried, “ Run!Run!The cat is coming!” They ran away quickly and hid.After some time they came out.When they came out, the Country mouse said, “I do not like living in the city.I like living in my hole in the field.For it is nicer to be poor and happy, than to be rich and afraid.” 【译文】
城里老鼠和乡下老鼠
从前,有两只老鼠,它们是好朋友。一只老鼠居住在乡村,另一只住在城里。很多年以后,乡下老鼠碰到城里老鼠,它说:“你一定要来我乡下的家看看。”于是,城里老鼠就去了。乡下老鼠领着它到了一块田地上它自己的家里。它把所有最精美食物都找出来给城里老鼠。城里老鼠说:“这东西不好吃,你的家也不好,你为什么住在田野的地洞里呢?你应该搬到城里去住,你能住上用石头造的漂亮房子,还会吃上美味佳肴,你应该到我城里的家看看。”
乡下老鼠就到城里老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮,好吃的东西也为他们摆好了。可是正当他们要开始吃的时候,听见很大的一阵响声,城里的老鼠叫喊起来:“快跑!快跑!猫来了!”他们飞快地跑开躲藏起来。
过了一会儿,他们出来了。当他们出来时,乡下老鼠说:“我不喜欢住在城里,我喜欢住在田野我的洞里。因为这样虽然贫穷但是快乐自在,比起虽然富有却要过着提心吊胆的生活来说,要好些。”

There were two men who went out to eat together.They ordered fish.So on the table there were two fish.Normally not all the fish are alike in size, so there was one small, and one big.The first man just took
the big one for himself without asking and feeling ashamed, or anything;and ate it.The other friend
felt very disturbed and annoyed, he didn't know what to say.So he thought for a while, and then he said, “ If it were me,” I would have taken the smaller one first.“ So the other guy said,” See!I knew that!
That's why I took the big one."
有两个人一起出去吃饭,结果点了两条鱼,不久之后,鱼就上桌了,但是通常鱼的大小都不太一样,所以送来的鱼也是一条大一条小。结果第一个人问也不问,就把比较大的那条鱼夹起来吃,一点都没有不好意思的样子。
另一个人看了心里很不高兴,但是也不知道该说什么才好。他想了一会儿,终于开口说:「如果是我的话,我一定会先拿那条小鱼。」另一个人就接口说:「看吧!我就知道,所以我刚刚才拿大鱼。」
